The daedalic maze can be considered a metaphor of the human existence: each decision we make is like to turn the corner of the cosmic unknown, of which we know only the dilemmas that we encounter in the places and on the needs of the moment; because the road that we can follow is always only one.
This metaphor of the maze is valid today more than in the past: contemporary mankind faces and challenges the Cosmos with science thinking to be at one step to the victory, but it is like a blind man who makes little steps gropingly, and go forward with repetitive attempts, as much improvident as done by chance.
Surely the will is a good thing: it is the necessary ingredient to evolve, but who is gifted with it does not have to think it is useful only for our human dimension, that is not the universal purpose in the name of which to declare a post-humanist and anthropocentric war against the Cosmos.
Yes, because we’re talking of a war, since to impose oneself means to do it in detriment of something else; and the revenge of the opponent is the consequence. And as it happens in any war, turbulent periods of fighting are succeeding, and of illusion of victory, and of desperation. And soon or later, as in any war, one can win.
Or lose.
