[Platt]
With all the information on the web about postmodernism it's hard to
be willfully ignorant of the subject.
[Arlo]
And yet you achieve this with resounding success.
[Platt]
Since as usual you make the assertion without evidence, I'll chalk it
up to ignorance.
[Arlo]
You give the "evidence" every time you post. Why should I repeat it?
It's there for anyone to read.
[Platt]
No difference between a planned performance and an accident? Surely you jest.
[Arlo]
Makes no difference. Whether the firewalker "plans" his activity or
stumbles onto the hot coals "by accident", the end result is that the
same immediate experience, standing on hot coals, is experienced
differently by some than others, some as "low quality" and some as
"high quality".
[Platt]
Is anything certain to you, or is "Nothing is certain" another
self-contradictory postmodern tenant?
[Arlo]
There, you asked for evidence of willful ignorance, and now you have it.
[Platt]
Proof he wasn't?
[Arlo]
If you posit he was "drugged out of his mind", then the burden of
proof is on you. You make the claim, you back it up. Until then, the
video demonstrates clearly that the monk shows no evidence of
experiencing a "low quality".
But.. even if he was. That just proves my point further, because now
you are making qualification upon qualification to try to show your
"absolute". So someone drugged out of his mind who sits on a hot
stove may have a completely different experience. Just shows how the
quallity of all experience is relative.
