"I won't be able to assess which is correct until and unless you explain him."

For starters, stop hanging around the campfire listening to solon's scary ghost stories.

you have refused to follow the train of though

I am not refusing to follow it. I may not be following it, but I am not refusing. I am not able to follow it despite extraordinary effort. Why do you continue to insist on implying the ugliest of motives to me? I think the problem is more that there is no train. There's a wheel here and a whistle there, but no train.

His belief statement is an explanation of its own.

Oh, yes, the belief statement. I remember that Perhaps you recall how that came to be. It was crafted by moi after a long series of interviews reminiscent of pulling your teeth--the back ones. Part of the extraordinary effort that you seem to interpret as refusal, doncha know.

I thought you had abandoned it given that I wrote it and I am accused of not having a clue where Mojo's coming from. If I crafted it but don't have a clue, then the belief statement cannot be accurate. Logic 101. But sure, I can go back to the belief statement. I have it clipped for posterity.

<<Belief: that the practice of massaging anyone whom he might turn on or who might turn him on is harmful because the lesser standard does not adequately deter sexual misconduct in the massage biz. >>

And then there's also:

<<Principle: he stands firm that he won't accept any women or gays as clients in his own practice. >>

Are you reconfirming that, as well?
