What kind of logic is that? Humans have always worked for millions of years. We have to work to live. Working has nothing to do with cultural norms and mores.

And yes my entire family works very hard, but we are not trapped in primitive thinking.

That is what the 60's was about. Freeing ourselves from primitive thinking which said we all had to live a certain way. We said: "no we have the right to live any way we want, not the way you want".

Most humans are trapped by their own mind. Only when one frees themselves from primitive beliefs can one truly be free.

That is exactly what the secular kids in the middle east are trying to do. Free themselves from 7th century dogma they are forced to live by.

My entire family lives existential lives.

None of us follows any myth or script. We all make it up as we go.

If there any of you working for a paycheck, then you are following work place cultural norms and not making it up---at least not in the work place.
