Who's on top? They seem to disagree, so whose idea is the truth? But what if both exchanges are competitive b.s. and a hoax, a pretense that the ideas make sense? Is there anyone here that can make sense of these two sets of statement? Of course, someone will step forward, and say something else that is dense with verbage and hard to understand. I understand we cannot understand everything everyone says all the time; and there are levels of complexity and also levels of boloney. I will say that pitying someone is a way to look down at another and pretending you are in a superior postion. On the other hand, perhaps Len IS in the superior position and Toom is mistaken. Even then, pitying is a kind of smug attitude. Larry Epston p.s. Even if the thought and the thinker are inseparable or connected, what does that have to do with seeking knowledge of the thinker? Knowledge of the thinker is a different issue, and the question is, who wants this knowlege? And did anyone ask about it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
