dmb said to Krimel:
Like the classic-romantic split or the static-dynamic distinction, the idea is
to include them both. The idea is to integrate reason and the affective domain
to produce an expanded and improved form of rationality.
Krimel replied:
Who has disputed this?
dmb says:
You did. I was disputing what you said right after you said it. This is what
you said:
"If we have been overzealous in sublimating emotion and values since the
enlightenment, it is a sublimation that emotion and value richly deserved.
Humanity was governed by its emotional values for millennia. If reason finally
got a chance to take charge for a change I say, bully for it. ... the function
of reason is inhibitory. It serves to override the emotions and stop us from
acting on the immediate emotional "value" of the present. It helps
ussubordinate what feels good to what makes sense."
I say "integrate" where you say "sublimate", "inhibit", "override", "stop" and
"subordinate". See the difference? That means there is a dispute.
dispute |disˈpyoōt|nouna disagreement, argument, or debate : a territorial
dispute between the two countries | the question in dispute is altogether
insignificant. See note at quarrel .
Idiot.
