re: “I think ‘eternally’ is just a junk word she thought would sound good.”

For Number 183, who believes she was created in heaven, unique and useful to her creator, “eternity” is not a junk word. She will live forever, usefully serving her master and receiving pleasure from those who recognize her beauty and adore her.
But at times, she feels that perhaps none of it is true, and just maybe she’s no more than a concoction, a useful idea. In those moments, she fears that “eternity” is a lie and a junk word.

I suppose that given a couple years, maybe I’ll work my way up to Nietzsche and the modern philosophers who debunk the intrinsic value of numbers. For now I rather enjoy winning some of these disputes, as evidenced by no answer being given to my argument, but cries of “Blatherer!”, “Moron!”, like shrill barks of a small dog. But without this freedom in anonymity, it wouldn't be fun anymore would it?
