WE know that we don't know everything, and may or may not ever be able to learn everything. And in fact even what we DO know could be changed- and we know that we know that- which is to know that you really don't know- since you are open to the possibility of things being otherwise.

You have much to learn grasshopper.

Edit- i probably shoudln't say "we". Lather if you disagree with anything I said I know you'll feel free to jump in and correct my opinion of your opinion. I wouldn't want to try to read your mind- unlike X2 (who is so VERY good at it) I'm not good at it at all. X2 for your benefit only- the bit about mind reading and YOU being good at it was sarcasm. Since you invariably misinterpret me I thought I would interpret myself. Now I suppose you will get my interpretation of myself wrong- I can't wait for that. Ah the entertainments the net affords!

No, my case is that I know that I cannot know everything.

While the difference in phrasing might seem insignificant to you, be assured it is not.

The self-refutation occurs only when you distort my words to fit your prefab fallacy. Inconveniently for you ... what I say I said and what you say I said don't line up.

Think about it this way ... oh, forget it.
