How much of our ways thinking about good and bad derives from gravity? Good and virtue are generally seen as "high," "light" (both bright and facile), "greater," "raise," "airy," and other seeming metaphors for the movement away from gravity. Bad and evil seem to be the opposite-- "low" "dark" "heavy" "base" "dirty" etcetera. Does this make sense? Perhaps a confusion of the chicken with the egg?
