Pythagoreans also must have had a subtle sense of humor! Thanks for your
encouraging note in the last post of "go for it [bio dark-matter chemistry]".
Why don't you come along?
Whether the inquisitive "ancients" or the hard-nosed "moderns", all have a
common enemy "death" [the Sentence of Death]. The responses of Pagans and
Non-pagans are poles apart. It is falsely attributed to "Left" & "Right" in
politics. Augustine the pagan (pre-transformation) was ignorant or indifferent
of after-life, Augustine the non-pagan (post-transformation) was absolutely
confident and joyful of after-life. That was a turning point in Western history
and also indirectly for the rest of the pagan histories. WAMP-the-Ingrate is
the stealing beneficiary of that Augustinian Trust!!! WAMP = Western
Acade-Media Pagan(ism).

That's why the Pythagoreans forbade eating beans.
