THE ANTHROPOPHAGIST MANIFESTO
(sections 27-31)

I asked a man what Law was. He replied that it was the guarantee of the exercise of possibility. That man was named Gobb Eldygook. I ate him.

There is only no determinism - where there is mystery. But what do we care about that?

Down with the histories of men, which start at Cape Finisterre. The world undated. Unlabeled. Without Napoleon. Without Caesar.

The determination of progress through catalogues and television sets. Only machinery. And blood transfusers.

Down with antagonistic sublimations. Brought in the caravels.
