CREATION OF NONSENSE


Here is a riddle: God created nonsense, and saw that it was good…
I think that there are many such kinds of nonsense that are indeed good. Truth can be nonsense, a good person’s life can be nonsense, a nonsense idea can be very good, etc…
Ironically, what is bad can never be nonsense...
There are two kinds of nonsense: rational and deliberate, on the one hand, and irrational and spontaneous, on the other. Another name for nonsense is the absurd. See my several entries on absurdity and absurdism in the Philosophy section. This entry is their echo.
