As I hope was clear, I am not advocating the points I listed in my post. They are simply what has been stated in various posts, (or what might be interpreted from them) and/or their logical extensions. I did it as an exercise to see if and when they fall apart. You examples in # 3 are similar is nature to the ones I posted last week. #5 and #6, to mee show the possible silliness of some things whispered with reference here and elsewhere. Certainly I am not advocating that Richard's post are strong spiritual tools or culture nonatachment. (Well there may be something to the latter-- they may lesen our attachments to logic, reasoned diologue, "facts", etc. Which may be his point. Which I hope is his point and that his posts are not a spontaneous reflection of the state of his mind.)
