Dear Alex:

I am genuine. I believe you and Skipper are genuine. I have found, for myself, the Tao, the simple ultimate truth for, at least, my existence.

I am so moved by your post. It seeks, without assaulting. I am also moved by Skipper's objective, 'rational' responses to messages posted on this thread.

Without vitriol, I ask you (both) to ask yourselves what is the sense in becoming engulfed in such absurdities as those being directed at you:

"Know then that the only alternative to 'A is A' is to adapt the opposing premise that simply states 'A is not A'."

It, and many such others, is a precocious, pathological, parading of poppycock-power. It doesn't say a single, simple goddamned thing.

I had become involved - trusting in the bona fides of the antagonist. But have now dismissed it all as essentially ego, madness, senseless sadism.

Among this mass of caustic categorization is one that, with a two-valued orientation, insists that admission of human lack of complete knowledge demands the introduction of a god-power, which does all that which we gainsay.

It took me much time to realize I was dealing with a manic fraud - very talented, though it may be. But, pulling the threads (Skipper) left me aware that it was nonsense - or game. Glory to the latter for its abilities. Sorrow to the former for its patent ridiculousness.

I do not seek allies, only comment on my own temporary seduction and the relief it is to see it in clear light. George
