"As such, we rely on the greatest human beings and their legacies, in every field of understanding: philosophy, science, art, and religion."

Even with the destruction of the understanding of these fields,
I still have talked to people who in a degenerated form have "philosophical," "scientific," or "religious" thoughts.

However, I am hesitant to say I have met someone who has "artistic" thoughts.

Am I just surrounded by the wrong people? Or is this more rare than the others? I have met artistic people, so to speak, but I would hardly consider their thoughts beautiful, even in a degenerated sense.

Thanks friends!
