The most fundamental reason behind this miserable world

That is, inherent contradiction between "love your neighbor" and "truth is good" For humans, both are almost 'axioms' Human history has been based / established on them Without 'love your neighbor': Species can't cooperate, therefore they are doomed to be extinct Without 'truth is good': Logical thinking, advancement are hindered, and humans couldn't have survived this long Therefore, both are absolute necessities for mankind, in an evolutionary or historical perspective Mankind can't give up either of them But, as you might have guessed by now, the two axioms contradict each other, unlike mathematical axioms This contradiction is the most fundamental cause for this miserable world (Think about what a mathematician said: "If I'm allowed to assume any false proposition to be true, I can prove any true proposition to be false and vice versa") I, even now, can't confidently decide which one to choose over the other, assuming that I can choose (because I have no say and I'm already in the path of truth) If I choose truth, I'm virtually living this life as a single player with NPCs Then, what's the use of truth? If I choose love, I'm living this life as an animal (dog / pig / lemming) with all the absurdity and no morality, stopping to think with eyes wide shut Do I want to be a disgusting, retarded, ill-willed, vicious, immoral, lazy NPC? The best scenario is not to realize the contradiction in the first place (Note that whole species' standpoint and an individual's standpoint are different, and I omitted that part. Think for yourself) After thought: As I think now, truth is precedent to love Truth is the more basic axiom Truth is individual Love is species' (By the way, keep in mind that the meaning of love is very broad (in the context of "love your neighbor" in Bible)) But that doesn't mean you should choose truth over love Because, even the most basic axiom 'truth is good' itself is not true Seeking truth means giving up love Choosing love means giving up seeking truth The two can't be achieved "fully" simultaneously But denying the value of seeking truth doesn't mean choosing love So when I said truth is overrated in another post, I didn't necessarily mean that I wanted to choose love I described waking up in a sewer pipe as a metaphor for knowing truth So, trying to go to sleep is not directly related to choosing love As I think now, it's more abstract and vague because it's more encompassing / general but I might have had to write that the most fundamental reason for this miserable world is that "truth is good" is not true
