Angels or Demons






Sori,I wanted to blog about this last nite after watching Numbers season (don't know which),it was an episode where they were investigating an Islamic group which was suspected of supporting terrorist in Pakistan. One of the investigating officer was truly islamophobic,he was convinced that every muslim is evil until they found out that the Islamic group was infiltrated by an IRA agent.

One of the concepts that were shown in the episode was Escher's Angel and Demons (see above). This concept is based on human perception; hear too much negative points about a person,u'll hate him even though u never see him before or hear too much positive points about a person,u'll adore him even though u have no proof of him doing good. Ergo,when a person sees the diagram for the 1st time,he will either see demons or angels in the motif. Oh yeah btw,its a kind of anagram.

Totally agree. Tats why, make the decision based on your heart and not influenced by your ear.
