Morrissey wants his bottom

I'm reading your 4 year old post but it feels as fresh as today, I felt the same way but your words framed the interview perfectly. Nice by you.

@@ajh21313 Aw thanks! Always so crazy to get responses to old comments one doesn't even remember making years ago haha

Morrisey likes to test his interviewers,and likes to play with them.As most of the time he finds it all tiresome,and tedious.Especially if they try to follow the standard line of questioning.Which someone as complex as Morrisey ,will just find lazy and boring.This is when interviews get awkward with him.This didnt happen to the large degree with Zane,as Morrisey knows hes a true music fan.Even though i still think at times the journalist in him came out.So all you get then from Morrisey ,is ducking round those type of universal questions.He has definatly become more tolerent over the years ,in the few interviews he has done though.Such a unique character as Morrisey is always going to be tricky.But i think on the whole here Zane did a well informed,good job.

Jacqueline Saraiva 100% truth!

+Jacqueline Saraiva I guess a rebuttal could be because we weren't around/made yet. You can't be aware of something if you're not alive.

If that's the case, why do we fear it?

We don't remember our time as foetuses in the womb or when we were born. Does that mean we were never in the womb and never born? I'm surprised at Morrissey's lack of imagination here. He would make more sense if he said that the soul does not exist and therefore there can be no afterlife. How would a human baby remember a previous existence as its brain is brand 'new'? That would be like expecting a computer to have all the knowledge in the universe before it has even been programmed. Most people can't even remember what they ate for breakfast, so does that mean that they didn't eat breakfast? The conscious human mind might not be aware of a life before we were born, but the soul would remember everything. Its whether you believe that we have souls. Morrissey is presuming here that the meagre, primitive, dumb, human brain should/would know everything that has existed and does exist, but that's simply not possible or sensible to suggest. In fact, we all know nothing.

A confusing thing happens when an atheist converses with a theist. If you don't believe in a God and you believe that everything that makes someone an individual rots with the body, you obviously don't believe that the soul is transcendent. (This is the stance Morrissey seems to take, as I gather from Autobiography). He might equate the human mind you speak of with the soul of a person, as all individuality of a person lies in the mind. If you do believe in a God and transcendent soul, perhaps you think the soul is bigger than the mind. It's an argument that can't be had without addressing a different issue first. It would go nowhere. By the way, you've confused me a bit. I now no longer understand what a soul really is. If the soul doesn't carry our "meagre, primitive, dumb, human" brains, it doesn't carry our identities. What is it, then? How could it possibly be us?

But Morrissey's bicycle is punctured... it's on a hillside desolate
