CB, mystics don't use reason. They attack or excommunicate the people who are heretical. You have a lot in common with the Islamics you have a mystical line around. Metaphysical certitude. As Globalstar and the WTC mayhem showed, it's fatal.

I worried a couple of weeks ago that from a global point of view, the world might behave the same way as Globalstar. We are indeed well down that track right now.

CB, you saw "jab, jab". You were saying there's just one God and I challenged such an idea. That's Santa Claus for grown ups. That's central to what's going on. Your attitude is why the World Trade Center was bombed. Your dogmatic attitude is the attitude of those who did it.

I hesitated to try to discuss it because religious collectivist wackoes are incapable of reason when in religious mode. Dogma is the very foundation of Islam, collectivism and Christianity and totalitarian states - "Don't bother thinking and we actually specifically forbid it - or we'll kill you. We, who have the word of God, [one God, which happens to be our one], on a hotline, will give you the word and we will tell you what to do. First, we want the money and the girls".

I thought it might be worth a try. I suppose I knew it wasn't.
