Imagine a parallel universe where there is a listserve called TIPS which 
stands for Teaching in Philosophy and Science. We are observing a discussion 
among philosophers debating the meaning of memory. We would undoubtedly be 
amused by their naivete and lack of familiarity with the relevant 
literature. This discussion on "sin" in psychology would, I submit, be 
equally "amusing" to those who are knowledgeable about the subject, 
philosphers and theologians. I spent a summer at the University of 
Salamance, studying Spanish, and used to fantasize what it must have be like 
in the late 1300s when the University of Salamanca had Arab, Jewish and 
Christian faculty debating philosophical issues. I suspect they would have 
sent anyone using the arguments on this thread back to undergraduate 
classes.

No offense intended. I am just as guilty as anyone else.
