Guest guest Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 Mind can make sense of anything save itself; mind may eventually understand everything in the universe -- except that one thing, yet being intelligent enough to note that it may be the one exception does not make sense -- unless, the human mind is life at its most intelligent.

The understander can't understand the understander because of the conceptual loop that is set up when the understander is divided from the understood. To go from recognizing that the understander can't understand the understander as an object, to the notion that it proves the intelligence of the human mind is really silly -- and to think that there is a mind that belongs to a human being is actually to commit the same kind of conceptual loopiness. -- D.
