You all managed to stay alive before I came around. My words are but a distorted echo from the distant past.

You do have a very good point. 🙂

Who cares?

It is not a lack of courage, but a lack of clarity that compelled me to describe those folks the way I did. Just as their philosophy is a bit abstract and hazy, so too is my definition of them. Frankly I thought it was rather clever. 😏

To the philosophical bards of RHP, I say: "May you find much happiness on this journey of yours." 🙂

I think your OP exemplifies a certain intellectual and emotional cowardice which is endemic in much of of your posting. In this particular instance you’re trying to create some drama by saying something unflattering about a person or persons who just prior to you making the OP had ruffled your feathers. I spotting who at least one of them was, and I don’t think it’s clever at all. Just passive aggressive.

No idea Suzianne.

May run a poll? 🤷‍♂️

Everyone is entitled to their opinion. I have to go back to work now.

Something we agree on then.

This is true and everyone has an opinion. 🙂

Why "yours," are you not a philosopher too? A true philosopher would ask this from any prospecting philosophical bard. "Must we not then first of all ask, whether there is any one of us who has knowledge of that about which we are deliberating?

Borrowing some courage and street-wise philosophical language, I would say that it takes one to know one.

Never apologize for speaking your mind. It only gives your detractors much-needed structural fiber for their next attempt at burning you in effigy. Do not surrender your own power to them.

I don’t see anyone asking mchill to “apologise”.

No one asked him, but he did anyways.

Why do you make it about you?

Where did he apologise? I don’t see it any of his posts.

Again; no one asked him to.

The asking is not the point, yet you make it the point. Why?
