RMP: This kind of comparison is what I have meant by the term, "philosophology." It is done by people who are not seeking to understand what is written but only to classify it so that they don't have to see it as any thing new. (RMP, 'LILA's Child', Annotation 133) Ron: Can YOU read? Philosophology is done by people who are not seeking to understand what is written. only to classify it so they can dismiss it. (a form of the strawman device) but what should be noted is the lack of will to understand what someone means. That pretty much sums up your rhetorical style Marsha, even the aim at which this post is supposed to dismiss Daves comparison of William James, Robert Pirsig and Fred Nietzche. He does not compare them to dismiss Pirsig he does so to clarify their meaning. To support Pirsigs conclusions not dismiss them. But YOU on the other hand are using this quote philosophologicaly, so can dismiss Dave without actually having a philosophical explanation supporting that dismissal. Lazy and hypocritical. Not to mention a poor display of critical thinking skills. As usual. ..
