Krimel said: Truth is I didn't get much farther than the first few sentence[s]... There is really no need to go on. Almost all of the ranting a raving that goes one about this, especially from you, dmb, Ham and the like is ranting about the Newtonian world view. ... Personally I don't think a retreat into superstition, animism, panpsychic supernaturalism is the road out of the mess.
dmb says: Jumping to a dismissal after the first few sentences is a pretty good indication of your open-mindedness, or rather your lack thereof. Not only that, last week Chalmers was the hero of consciousness studies but this week he is on a par with Ham and Platt. Well, at least you are consistent when it comes to the production of straw men and other transparent bullshit. Let me know how that works out for you at school, eh? [Krimel] You are the one who suggested an actual attempt to address issues. You are the one who whined like a little bitch that I was being mean to you. Yet you are the one who continues avoid issues. You are the one spewing pointless analyses of style and speculating on personal motivations and character flaws. You are the one besmirching the good name of Robert Pirsig and his philosophy by connecting it to spiritualism, dualism and the supernatural disguised as esoteric new age romanticism. I have tried to heed your call as best I am able but it is difficult when you avoid the substance of what I have said and focus on trivialities like this. I implore you to heed your own advise and stick to the issues. Because if the past is any guide, you are not very good at this name calling crap, and if you continue I will wind up reflexively resorting to sarcasm and you will be back to whimpering in the corner sobbing about being mistreated and begging me to stop.
