   There is an Enormously-Serious Consequence   
   that occurs 'normally' be-cause of the above   
   'confinement' stuff.   
      
   Folks often relatively-'confine' themselves 'with-   
   in' volitionally-delimited external experiential   
   circumstances, and their nervous systems lit-   
   erally grow in accord with that which is exper-   
   ienced 'within' such relative-'confinement'.   
      
   In geopolitical dynamics, international borders   
   function in ways that relatively-'confine' exper-   
   ience in the 'same' way.   
      
   Be-cause nervous systems literally grow so as   
   to "fit" the external environments that their host   
   organisms actually experience, when two or   
   more People who have experienced 'within'   
   different relatively-'confined' external experiential   
   environments interact, those who have not ex-   
   perienced the 'same' relative-'confinement' will   
   experience the 'others' as constituting an exper-   
   iential condition that "does not fit" into the growth   
   that has occurred 'within' their nervous systems   
   [and 'vice versa'.]   
      
   And not understanding how and why nervous   
   systems process information, this "absence-of-   
   fit" condition is 'interpreted' as 'indicating' that   
   those who have =just= experienced differently   
   'are bad'.   
      
   Understand?   
      
   =This= is the literally =nothingness= out of   
   which =all= War -- all interpersonal Savagery --   
   has arisen throughout the course of human   
   History.   
      
   Folks Kill, and otherwise Ravage one anothers'   
   Beings, for no 'reason' other than that how and   
   why nervous systems process information has   
   not been Generally-comprehended.   
      
   So there =are= 'phantoms' that have physically-   
   real, and exceedingly-Tragic, existence in the   
   midst of Humanity.   
      
   But these 'phantoms' exist =solely= be-cause   
   absence-of-understanding with respect to how   
   and why nervous systems process information   
   has literally grown 'within' nervous systems in   
   which understanding with respect to how and   
   why nervous systems process information   
   could have, just as well, grown 'within' nervous   
   systems.   
      
   The 'phantoms', the Killing, the Savagery, exist   
   solely be-cause absence-of-understanding phys-   
   ically resides where only understanding has Reas-   
   on to reside.   
      
   Absence-of-understanding "inside the brain" ren-   
   dering what's "outside the brain" 'hell'-on-Earth.   
      
   And the most-Heinous 'phantom'... folks 'moving   
   away from' understanding that Eliminates ab-   
   sence-of-understanding, in the same way as   
   above, 'because' nervous systems have literally   
   grown to incorporate absence-of-understanding --   
   so understanding 'just' doesn't 'fit' -- folks react-   
   ing to this absence-of-'fit' condition instead of   
   anything that's physically-real within external ex-   
   periential environments.   
      
   So the Savagery not 'only' continues, but augments.   
      
   'because' of the literal-nothingness that absence-   
   of-understanding physically is.
