B. Concept-MummiesPhilosophers are idiosyncratic in that they are opposed to anything temporal that involves becoming. They believe that they are showing respect for a subject when they treat it as something eternal, but in reality, they are only draining the life out of whatever they d-historicize, turning living concepts into “concept-mummies.” They search for “being” which they oppose absolutely to becoming, but it eludes their grasp. Desperate for something to blame they charge the senses with being deceptive and hiding the “true” world. They particularly despise the body, that whose end the senses serve, and which behaves as if it were real.
