"on the misery of the human condition"

I am required to take a class called History of Ideas. It is what it sounds like. I'm not particularly dedicated (the material is far too general), but I was going through a set of old notes and found this. I'm not sure what I was doing - I think I droned out - but, it may be of some interest. Nothing's been changed with the exception of spacing in the fourth line.


“On the Misery of the Human Condition”
            Humanity is, on it’s own, lost
            Trapped in matter
            Corrupted by lust and greed
            Defined by sin or
                                        by sun

People are ani-mals! Everyone is covered in parasites! Everyone is scratchy! Everyone is dirty! We have one thing going for us: JESUS CHRIST. CHURCH, CHURCH, CHURCH, CASA JESUS. What a world! What an incalculable tragedy.

Human perfectibility
