No one is moral among the god-controlled puppets of the _Iliad_. Good and evil do not exist.

The king dead is a living god.

I shall state my thesis plain. The first poets were gods. Poetry began with the bicameral mind.

Conscious mind is a spatial analog of the world and mental acts are analogs of bodily acts. Consciousness operates only on objectively observable things. Or, to say it another way with echoes of John Locke, there is nothing in consciousness that is not an analog of something that was in behavior first.

No one is moral among the god-controlled puppets of the _Iliad_. Good and evil do not exist.

Poetry, from describing external events objectively, is becoming subjectified into a poetry of personal conscious expression.

The very reason we need logic at all is because most reasoning is not conscious at all.
