Even if that was a fact, how does it prevent one from enjoying man-made thangs in their own right?

---

it prevents it for me because man made things are imperfect, drab, chaotic, distorted and distended, sharp and shrill, pragmatic and boring.

it's your perception of man-made things that makes you feel that way.


by the way nature's far from perfect. look at us humans

that is why i included the self referencing part. i realize reality is subjective

This thread is proof that Christrianity is better than the pagan Mithras cult it replaced.  Otherwise, we couldn't get to see the super amazing cross in OP's photo.

By the way, the Vatican is the last thing I'd consider "pragmatic" or "drab." For the rest you're spot-on, I agree that manmade environments are generally terrible for tripping, but the Vatican is an example of how it can be more because of the people infesting them than the environments themselves.

Museums are another great manmade environment for tripping, in fact probably better than the Vatican due to the more liberal attitude they foster.

fair enough. overall i'm speaking as an american though. our structures/architecture is HARDLY worth a second look.

Don't even get me started, man. Being surrounded by monochromatic little boxes made of ticky-tacky does not for a good trip make, whether you're on drugs or not.
