Quick question.
How do you save yourself from self-harming activities/decisions such opioid abuse, drinking, ennui etc?
I am sure that there are many people who are self-harming who could benefit from your advice. You might chose to call them defective and just watch them as they fall but eventually you will be impacted. Pithy aphorisms will not assuage the hurt or offset the cost.

Society is now like the expressway on to which more and more drivers are throwing trash. How much trash can thrown before the expressway effectively becomes unusable?

Sorry the message of complex quaternions went awry, it was merely an example.

As to religion, it is what people adopt in the absence of a truly effective philosophy.
