[PERMANENTLY CLOSED] A problem at the bottom of reason

[madera23]

Because I missed so much of the discussion, and I've seen you refer to it elsewhere, when you say "natural world", what are you thinking of?

The Head Master disagrees.

Can he not post his opinion for himself?

Oh, I see, you think I am attempting to teach...now. No, sorry, I'm not.

lol. No, you are not.

The type of teaching you are referring to has been done for millennia ("It is finished."), and still some do not learn. My part in this is not to go back and teach in that way, but to share the information with intellectuals. Was I wrong to do so?

Perhaps it was the condescending tone of your posts that gave me the impression that your message was not intended for intellectuals.

Unfortunately, you are not privy to the lesson plan...or you would be on the same page. And, so, I guess that makes me "in accordance" with greater curriculum,

Was that an appeal to popularity?

but not with you limited knowledge of it. But, hey, I am not interested in the one-up-man-ship of all this either...and we are getting nowhere with two teachers. I have been sitting in on your class and I get what the natural world is all about, in fact, I graduated. But you are obviously an undergrad in my department. Did you want to sit in, ask any questions, or learn something? Or did you just want to take over the class, and tell me a thing or two, even though you are not qualified?

By what mechanism did you determine that he, or any of the others here, are not qualified? Can you read minds?

Space, time, and matter.

Experts should be able to demonstrate their expertise. You haven't demonstrated any more expertise than the various other so-called "experts" who disagree with you on points of doctrine. You are less like an instructive parent, and more like the emperor with no clothes.

The world is all the demonstration you will get.

Demonstration of what? Your expertise?

Of any kind.

You're not making any sense.

Why do you call yourself wanderer. My son traveled all over the world. He was a wanderer big time.
Where did you travel?

Many...most, advancements to new horizons have historically been met with accusations of insanity.

So have many more ideas which have turned out to be patently wrong. Unless you can give us actual reasons to think you know what you're talking about, there's no reason to think you're some misunderstood genius rather than the more common crackpot with a pet idea.

Why do you all keep this
conversation alive.?.

Of course. That is the way it works. You do not acknowledge the Creator of the heavens and the earth. You have made demands of him whom you do not know, and therefore will not receive answers, nor does he acknowledge you.

The world is not reason enough. It is his-story, and you do not see him. You have a choice: look harder, or be the same to him that he is to you (invisible). My part in your story, is finished.

Are you going to demonstrate your expertise anytime soon?

I did. It went over your head.

Rise up or sleep, those are the choices. You have made your choice.

Sweet dreams.

In reality, no, because he clearly can't.

This has just been an exercise, in one person, trying to protect their beliefs, by repeatedly telling themselves they are special and they have unique knowledge and the rest of us are being misled.

Rinse, repeat.
