Lent, Day 15: Back From The Road Trip
Today in the car on my way back from seeing the fam in Indianapolis, I heard "The Cave" by Mumford & Sons, and then got home to find this in my blog reader. Appropriate.
I thought that cartoon was fantastic too, but XKCD is misunderstanding the point of the Cave simile. For Plato, "reality" was not primarily experienced by walking around, after all.
