But
if
you
had
been
present
at
the
discorporation
death
of
a
friend
,
then
you
helped
eat
his
body
?
and
then
you
saw
his
ghost
,
talked
with
it
,
touched
it
,
anything
would
you
then
believe
in
ghosts
?
"
"
Well
,
either
ghosts
,
or
I
myself
had
slipped
my
leash
.
"
"
All
right
.
Here
it
would
be
an
hallucination
?
if
I
grok
correctly
that
we
don
t
stay
here
when
we
discorporate
.
But
in
the
case
of
Mars
,
there
is
either
an
entire
planet
with
a
very
rich
and
complex
civilization
all
run
by
mass
hallucination
or
the
straightforward
explanation
is
correct
the
one
I
was
taught
and
the
one
all
my
experience
led
me
to
believe
.
Because
on
Mars
the
ghosts
are
by
far
the
most
important
and
most
powerful
and
much
the
most
numerous
part
of
the
population
.
The
ones
still
alive
,
the
corporate
ones
,
are
the
hewers
of
wood
and
drawers
of
water
,
servants
to
the
Old
Ones
.

nodded

"
Okay
.
I
ll
never
boggle
at
slicing
with
Occam
s
razor
.
While
it
runs
contrary
to
my
own
experience
,
my
experience
is
limited
to
this
planet
provincial
.
All
right
,
son
,
you
re
scared
that
they
might
destroy
us
?
"
Mike
shook
his
head
.
"
Not
especially
.
I
think
this
is
not
a
grokking
but
a
mere
guess
that
they
might
do
one
of
two
things
:
either
destroy
us
or
attempt
to
conquer
us
culturally
,
make
us
over
into
their
own
image
.
"
"
But
you
re
not
fretted
that
they
might
blow
us
up
?
That
s
a
pretty
detached
viewpoint
,
even
for
me
.
"
"
No
.
Oh
,
I
think
they
might
reach
that
decision
.

You
see
,
by
their
standards
,
we
are
a
diseased
and
crippled
people
the
things
that
we
do
to
each
other
,
the
way
we
fail
to
understand
each
other
,
our
almost
complete
failure
to
grok
with
one
another
,
our
wars
and
diseases
and
famines
and
cruelties
these
will
be
complete
idiocy
to
them
.
I
know
.
So
I
think
they
may
very
probably
decide
on
a
mercy
killing
.
But
that
s
a
guess
,
I
m
not
an
Old
One
.
But
,
Jubal
,
if
they
decide
to
do
this
,
it
will
be
-
"
Mike
stopped
and
thought
for
quite
a
long
time
.
"
-
an
utter
minimum
of
five
hundred
years
,
more
likely
five
thousand
,
before
anything
would
be
done
.
"
"
That
s
a
long
time
for
a
jury
to
be
out
.
"
"
Jubal
,
the
most
different
thing
about
the
two
races
is
that
Martians
never
hurry
and
humans
always
do
.
They
would
much
rather
think
about
it
an
extra
century
or
half
a
dozen
,
just
to
be
sure
that
they
have
grokked
all
the
fullness
.
