[PLatt] Are you referring to the theology of Jimmy Carter and the political view of Dennis Kucinich perhaps?
[Krimel] I have deep respect for Jimmy Carter and his theology. He and Bill Moyers represent what I consider to be the best of the Southern Baptist tradition. Moyers emphasizes the priesthood of believers. Carter has life long record of public service and commitment to the social gospel. I have more problems with the style of Kucinich than his substance. [Krimel] > Unproven assumptions are inevitable. Which ones we make are matters of > choice. I prefer to be guided by probability. [Platt] While I prefer to be guided by Dynamic Quality. [Krimel] I would insist they are one and the same. > [Krimel] > I believe what I have said repeatedly is that "cause and effect" are > special cases where probability is estimated at 100%. Such instances are > tragically rare. [Platt] I'll remember how "tragically rare" the next time my hunger is assuaged by a Big Mac and my thirst with a Heineken. [Krimel] And the moment of that reflection is neither set in stone nor written in the Lamb's Book of Life. Equations can specify neither the moment your stomach will grumble nor the number of cars ahead of you in the drive through. That moment of reflection can not be predicted. Its outcomes can not be foreseen. It can only be lived. [Krimel] > With regard to living forever I would refer you to Ray Kurzweil. > Extrapolating Moore's Law to medicine Kurzweil thinks that we have the > potential to extend life if not forever at least indefinitely. [Platt] I should live so long. :-) [Krimel] So you should, my friend. The Vulcan Benediction "Live long and prosper" says it well, wouldn't you say?
