Agreed. Please notice that I moved away from etymology when I said: "study the word 'logos'." I'm not talking etymology but actual meaning. Please don't miss my point here. I'm not producing a study of "logos" because such is impractical. The best I can do is encourage others to do what I have done in the past.

Do we ever disagree? :-) Your statement here is refined by my statement that logic is the language of the logos. Maybe you could consider giving my previous terse post a little more thought. There is more there than what you have presently grasped. Peace be with you.
