How does this work for those of you who would like to make static patterns of
value synonymous with truth? ---To the extent that one's behavior is
controlled by truths it is without choice.--- Hmmmm?
AND earlier Marsha said to dmb:
Am I expected to defend against a "gnarly knot of a mess", "vacuous nihilism
and relativism of the worst kind", "incoherent belief that the intellect is
forever trapped in or identical to SOM" or the missing "repeated explanations
as to the logical impossibility of this view."? And rhetorically ending with
the statement "It's hateful and contemptuous of intellectual values." surely
does demonstrate the highest level of your intellectual competency. I think
I'll pass.
dmb says:
At one moment you pretend that my accusations of anti-intellectualism are
nothing more than rhetoric and in the next moment you're happy to make a case
that truth means being controlled, that it'll keep you from being free.
I think you have hereby demonstrated your anti-intellectualism. If you don't
see that you suffer from a great confusion and/or you are not capable of being
honest. Either way, you're talking out both sides of your ass. What a mess.
