Enigma, Some people lose their heads on both ends of the swing of the pendulum... I try to refuse to be a party to anything that comes close to hate. I disagree a lot, but try not to be too disagreeable... [.end] enigma, After a quick scan of your recent posts here on Si, i have obtained an impression that i hope is incorrect and you will choose to correct me. It seems that based on what i hold as concepts of your words, as follows "Msg from enigma... of the pendulum... hate... [.end] as your words to discuss your concept of pendulum and hate seems to follow views very different than mine in the sense that i view all people on planet Earth to first have individual rights that one can describe as following those thoughts of Ayn Rand if one filters out her personal demons to include more than one person to represent a group of persons having no individual thoughts except to following without using reason that of a mob. ok & sorry, too much babble here i am doing so hopefully to help me in this post let me ask, the following. As everyone here knows, when there is a serious conflict, especially when force is used to control the other side, each side will almost always describe "pendulum" & "hate" as that which will help their side defeat the other side. or freedom fighter & terrorist hero & suicidal good & evil labels pointing to the same object just as we all know, depends on which side you is on Note: Those of the 9/11 have been called suicide terrorist, and those who acknowledge this as accurate demonstrate what many here call a CNBC grasp of reality. But, back to my "grasp of reality" of your few posts on this thread, and those displayed under your Si profile page, has me wondering rather than confused, but if you deem it important please use what i semi-joking call an o49r Fence Duck Test and let gold_tutor determine which side you are on. This not for i but others on this GPM thread that have taken your Message #85112 from enigma... "Enigma, ... and wish peace to you, and yours." [end.] at face value, and to me have gotten a value in the unTruTh. or As i stated above, please detail my "read" of you as incorrect if you take this post of mine here as being totally off in my read. Or, if not then i am willing to simply now state that my above words are complete babble, needing no added testing by you for defense against what may incorrectly seem like a personal attack, as it is not, just me seeing a fog using words of a squirrel smoke and butterfly wing mirrors :o) Yes, i wish peace and good will to all on all sides, every side, as every person on planet Earth without any force used against them from either physical or mental is a normal and correct world. Its just that 1% bad folks knowing how to control the 95% clueless. d:oug
