STRONG AND FRAGILE
The materialist belief, yes, because even if you stick to the facts and argue objectively, in the end materialism is nothing more than a belief, like all the others, well, this belief may go unnoticed by you, but it makes you reason in a way which convinces you that human evolution occurs through competition and the process of adapting to adversity, in the face of which, evidently, the strongest would be winners while the failures would be left with the consolation prize of learning from failures, because these, eventually, would serve to strengthen.
Materialism, which is the belief that Life results from the physical and chemical formulations of the Universe, dominates a good part of our time, and modern civilization revolves around this dynamic, however, if there was nothing beyond that to experience, I, that write here, would not exist, nor would you be interested in anything other than competing and trying to be strong, although this dynamic, as you know intimately, does not save you from being vulnerable.
We know, from our own experience, that it is not enough to be strong to win, nor to convince ourselves that failure can teach us to be strong, because even though we are apparently winners, we realize that, despite our most glorious victories, we remain fragile, since, deep down, we long for something that cannot be achieved by force.
The search for impalpable, immaterial and subjective goods does not depend on strength nor on victories or defeats, but on the presence of spirit to transcend the limitations that our civilization imposes on us, whether because we are strong and win, or because we are weak and suffer defeats.
