Copyright© 2020 by Rolf
Fiction Story: We all, man or woman have used the excuse of a gender to explain why we do or did something. The snake or scorpion strikes at the one who saved it from drowning Why, because... that's what they do. In simple terms humans, animals, whatever often do what is in their nature to do, they do not think beforehand nor plan out the consequences of their actions.
Note: Titus Lucretius Carus was a poet ahead of his time who ended his life(Suicide) about the same time Julius Caesar formed up his first legion(55 BC or so). There were several postulates in his works, one was the basis for the ‘Big Bang Atomic Theory’ and another put forth more than 300 years earlier by Epicurus; was simply ‘to pursue pleasure and avoid pain’. Lucretius was described as a suicidal psychopath by his peers in Rome.
