@Albuquerque,
No offense. But you get to discuss with what you get. I can think of thousands of things worse than talking with Izzy, and not all that much better.
I understand your interest in a certain amount of wooo. I mean, really: "A Brief History of Metaphysics! (By Homo Sapiens)"?
How did you not expect a certain amount of ribbing on the title alone?
Secondly: How do you expect to draw a serious or open minded enough crowd to discuss metaphysics form a nation of mouth breathing knuckle draggers who don't believe in global warming because the Earth is flat?
Lastly - this is a fairly small community, and most of us don't get a thing from from free form discussions with no definitions or scope.
Regardless of some of our members who will take advantage of the quirky "discussing" to compensate for having read some fairly meaningless and contradicting propositions that hang alone with no effort to make a case.
Izzy's humor is intelligent, and it amuses me. So in my mind he provides justification for having read some vacuous puffery that initiated it.
I hope this explains why the type of discussion you crave is rare here. And why it really doesn't matter ... it really doesn't matter ... it really doesn't matter ... it really doesn't matter ... it really doesn't matter ... it really doesn't matter ... it really doesn't matter ... it really doesn't matter ... it really doesn't matter ... it really doesn't matter ... it really doesn't matter ... it really doesn't matter ... it really doesn't matter ... it really doesn't matter ... it really doesn't matter ... it really doesn't matter ... it really doesn't matter ...
Either sharpen your argument or toughen up!
