Hi Pq,
May I just point out, "One man's rubbish is another man's treasure".
I think many of the threads on this forum are complete and utter rubbish, but I don't damn them because I think this, I just focus on the ones I am interested in.
You're entitled to your opinion, nevertheless, but why do you, like others, pursue what is of no interest to you, in the first place?
Welcome to A2K!!!
You'll soon learn (as we all had to) that there are quite a lot of pedantic posters on here.
Most A2Ker's come on here for debate; nothing, therefore, is more satisfying than picking holes in an argument that isn't cogent. That is why such a banal thread has attracted so many posters.
Your argument isn't really cogent, it's more a web of symbols that you appear to find pleasurable to think of in a certain way... I'm not saying that that's not fine, I'm just saying, that since this is the nature of the forum, don't be surprised if people berate you for not making strict 'sense'. There's nothing more annoying than guessing games, so don't wind everyone up. (Does anyone remember that 'guess my age' thread ages ago that ended in such drama?)
Was it Butler who said, 'Think like a wise man, but talk in the common language', some things are beyond words, but if you look around I think there's a number of posters who still manage to make difficult and esoteric ideas accessible, as much as they can be ( which is good; this is a knowledge board, after all!). Read fresco's posts, for instance.

This thread should have been in the philosophy section, for like-minded individuals to query, but no! All normality has been disrupted by this change of forums.
Actually, I only ever really inhabit the philosophy boards. I don't really class this as philosophy to be honest. It's more like elaborate interpretation of quasi-religious bunk.

My relationship to A Lyn, or anyone else, is none of your business.
I didn't answer some part of your post! Am I obliged to? No! But out of common courtesy, lacking here, I shall.
Well if you want to explain your ideas, you might think it best.

Where I live - people do NOT wink at people for any of the reasons pre-mentioned. And nobody has any problems relating to the terminology I have applied.
Well someone said on here that you are English (?) I am English, and I seem to have found the explanations given by others pretty relevant.
Maybe they missed sexual innuendo?
