Dear Feste37: Don't listen to Judy: she is just having fun. She is not serious. Don't believe a word she says. And by the way, *this* post of yours outdoes them all. Are you not afraid your steeping yourself in this artIronymight take away some of that purity and innocence which was so much the signature of you when I first responded to you? Thenmany months agoyou convinced me of the validity of the marriage of East and Westsomething I would not have thought possible up to that moment. This is one of those first person ontology meets third person ontology (The omnisubjectivity of the Personal God and the pure consciousness of the Impersonal God) coincidencesembodied in the context of your post (from waybackwhenJuly of 2011?). I carry the memory of that event. Because it tended to suggest I was being a little dogmatic. Remember that?
Anyway, assuming you are lighting us all up here, this is superb. But just in case you are on the level, I shall guard against unwittingly obeying the will of a supernatural powerJudywhose authority over me I had hardly recognized. --- In [email protected], "feste37" <feste37@...> wrote: > > > > This is harder to understand than a John le Carre spy novel.
