Hi All
Bob, have you ever bothered to read Zen or Lila all the way through or
have you just skimmed the odd couple of pages here and there.
Add to this your overt bigotry and wonderful ability to mis-read
virtually every item you quote and the end result comes across as
incredible ignorance and prejudice.
Laugh?? - I nearly did.

They are a sore point because they are so thoroughly discredited no-
one of any intelligence or integrity uses them for anything other than
what they are - a means to espouse a particular thought system for a
particular group. As a general intelligence indicator of homo sapiens
they are worthless.

You see more value in addressing the personal habits of those you
dislike rather than addressing the arguments they propose.
Your failure to understand the difference between Biology and
Intellect is stunning. Your placing of Socialism in the Biological Level
appears to stem from your dislike of Marx - whose personal habits
you seem to feel are of more importance than his ideas - and you fail
to understand the difference between Socialism and Marxist
Socialism - two distinct theories. Note the word theory - this is
Intellect not Biology. You ask if anyone else on the list understands
economics and fail to see the irony in your question. Marx was an
economist and historian (and in part a philosopher - hence the links
with Hegel in his theories) and Marxism (Marxist Socialism) is an
ECONOMIC theory. Have you ever bothered to read a single word of
Marx or do you let others do your reading and thinking for you.
Your own thinking seems to be more in line with National Socialism.
You continue to espouse the idea of a free market (a myth) and the
wonders of Capitalism in the same way that a small child parrots the
beliefs of its parents.
In short Bob you are the stuff of dreams for the Corporate Hitlers and
the governments you appear to dislike - you swallow their myths and
lies, hook line and sinker without ever going to the trouble of
questioning their motives. Did you ever get around to reading the MAI
information available all over the Internet or is that too much trouble?

Really Bob, is that right? So the Christian ethic was based on what?
Screw thy neighbour? or do unto others before they do it to you? or
lets all make lots of money and take it to heaven when we die?
Perhaps in defence of another glaring mistake you would like to tell
us all about the terrible personal habits of Jesus (of which I'm sure he
had many - I suppose you didn't get around to reading the
Apocryphal New Testament either). What was his IQ? Of course he
espoused the merits of the free market in the temple didn't he? And
he probably sold the loaves and fishes to make a bit of spare cash.
Why not try reading Lila again Bob. This time with an open mind and
without the idea of justifying your strange and warped notions.
