Guest guest Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 Have you given any thought to the fact that around the world thousands are killed by words everyday? Every time an argument escalates into insults, and insults into violence, someone at home, at work, or on the streets gets hurt, or killed. Every day people die, and go to jail over words that really mean not a thing. Wouldn't it be nice if everyone understood the use, and limitations of words, if semiotics and word philosophy were taught at high school? But if even people like us don't understand, or even care to, what chance is there some day everyone will, and the killing and maiming over not a thing at all will stop? Pete perhaps Pete, it is not words nor philosophies that need to be explained/taught but the nature of who thinks.. Ana P: Can you think without words, sexy grandma? When You write a poem, do you give any thought to the words you write, or do they flow out.... like a verbal orgasm? HOT! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
