Behold, fellow creatures, the sublimation of the individual and the coming of the Milum.
Interesting you bring up the word "sublimation". Several months ago I struggled with a phrase seeking to understand how the sacred secular has been watered down and devalued. The example I am reminded of is the use of songs in commercials. What were once considered works of art, "sacred" in a sense, has been sampled out into a soundbyte that fits into a commercial to sell a product that, in essence, has nothing to do with the "meaning" in the songs and this in a product that is ultimately just stuff.
I was looking for a secular parallel to sacrilege. Desublimation was the word that was discovered.
So I am now intrigued by "The Milum". Care to elaborate?
