Jay:
I am a realist, someone who recognizes the overwhelmingly obvious
fact that humanity is hierarchical -- that some people are better
at some things than others.
me: ofcourse some people are better at some
things than others. That's why they have to
work together and to rely on each other as
valued citizens.
Jay:
I would -- like all other people who are not insane -- go to a doctor
for surgery. I suppose a true believer like yourself might opt for
surgery from the grocer, but it doesn't make sense to me. <G>
me: I would only go for the surgery if my illness
is well diagnosed. Meantime - get a better diet and go
to the grocer...
You and Ray keep calling me fundamentalist
and true believer. Both of these imply looking at one's
opinions without any criticism or periodical overhaul.
This is not true in my case on either counts.
If we are into namecalling, I think I have some evidence
to call Jay a supremacist anti-humanist and Ray
a relativist, who prefers to look at the superficial
attributes, such as language, rather
than the content of ideas.
