And the only reason to use a word like *this* is because human beings communicate using words. Other than that, it has no purpose, says nothing, adds nothing. When we use words, we assume someone to read and associate a meaning with the symbol. So, by providing words, delusions can be reinforced. However, if we stay silent, the silence is discounted, and delusions persist. Sometimes, the excuse is made that a thorn is being provided to remove a thorn. Yet, truth has nothing outside, from whence a thorn could be lodged, and no one residing inside, who could be damaged by a thorn.
