Your spoiling my fun I have a serious debate
running, lets stick to the Issues.
To quote another Greek
Diogenese :
Alex the Great " Diogenese, please tell your
Philosophy of life "
Diogenese " Could you please move to the right a
little, you are standing in my sunlight"
Alex the Great ( Staying the sword hand of his
bodyguard ) " Were I not Alex the Great I would be Diogenese "
In other words " Credat Judaeus Apella "

Debate!
David,
Well
said ! At risk of changing this into a philosophical forum, though the
blend would not go amiss in my opinion. You quote Socrates in correct
context-
I quote- (1) DEMOCRITUS " The
only two certainties are space and atoms . All else is mere opinion ! " That
holds true as to the immediate T/A and F/A debate
as well as religious and philosophical
questions.
In our
dealings one with another let me quote another French philosopher who got it
dead right
(2)
VARVENAGUES-- "Whoever has seen the masked at a Masquerade Ball dance amicably
together ,exchanging pleasanteries . Taking hold of hands without knowing each
other . Leaving the next moment to meet no more can form an idea of the world
".
Can I
make the outrageous suggestion we bear the above in mind in our dealings with
one another on a daily basis. Starting in this debate. Trusting I have not
"set mischief afoot ". That is not the intention!
Regards,
David S.
