Bodvar, a quick answer for now
[Chris]
Could this be it? That when social structures become so evolved that
distinct and separate *I's* are created that provides the vessel for the
intellectual level?
[Bodvar]
It's a sin to pick nits, yet .... Ancient people (before the intellectual
level) surely had personalities, names, ancestry, property and
everything we have (so have people in social-value-steeped cultures
to-day) thus the personal 'I' isn't the vessel of intellect.
Bodvar. I will read your post more thoroughly later, but just for now -
I think the intellectual level emerged way before the Greeks if the
intellectual level is constituted of this drive of "knowledge for knowledge's
sake alone" and quite early in human history - although it took time to
evolve it: The Greeks and the SOM thinking is one manifestation of the
intellectual level, but not THE. I tend to conclude.
