CB since you are located on a different planet and your communication gear is flaky, I'll roll both your last posts to me into one and deal with it at once (won't take much) - hope the transmission goes through.

What's this? I thought you said you ask people what their standards are and judge them accordingly?

In the course of my research I may ask individuals what standards their CULTURES subscribe to, not what they personally privately hold dear - that all goes into the research necessary to form a picture of that culture. Got that part through to you or...? Any difficulties with the concepts? What do you use when researching other cultures? Among other tools, I also ask people - how about you? Don't bother talking to people? Use paranormal communication?

SFD:
I use the same Israeli standard to judge the settlers by

CB:
The one you "perceive."

Got it.

Well, at least you're consistent. You make the rules, everybody else has to play your game.

Bet it doesn't work in real life, either.


Err... yes, what I "perceive". How about you? Do you also like all human beings on Earth, use your perceptions? See, we humans have no other choice - kind of a philosophical point, Kant and all. Of course, guess that's a silly question - on your planet you must be directly hooked coaxially into REALITY, or as you put it "real life", very Husserlian.

"Everybody has to follow my rules"? What are you babbling about? It makes no logical sense - your conclusion cannot be correct since your assumption has just been shown to be false. Time to adjust your coaxial to reality - you're "not computing"... you're breaking up... your signal is getting weaker...
