"if you really don't know, then there is little probability that anything i say could be of use to you."
That is entirely the reason I granted the responses I did.
To study something for half your life and then open up with that statement and follow it up with "after reading the post for the fourth time, and the comments, again, to make sure i didn't miss anything, this all strikes me as something that i might have written 15 years ago, when i was a much angrier, younger man" is a derogatory statement atop a derogatory statement.
Perhaps it would have been better for you to ask questions to ensure you understand where I was coming from. You didn't do that. Based on your previous response you wanted to ensure I know you spent time understanding philosophy, etc. Great!
But you don't understand the importance of asking questions to further understand, instead making the assumption that you did understand.
I'm not angry like you were 15 years ago, if that is the case. I simply dislike people coming up to me making the same statements you did to state this exchange. It's belittling. It's off putting. And it tells me right away that you 'obviously' know something that I don't and are willing to rub it in my face.
Maybe you didn't see it that way. That's fine. But now if you don't understand how it was taken that way, why you didn't catch on since you've studied as much as you have, and then attempt to enlighten me hypocrisy that you think I am not seeing...
Well, no.
What sort of example do I think I have presented here?
I don't care if you want to read more of my work or not. Just leave me be. It's not that difficult.
From your point of view I am the hostile angry child. From my point of view you are the condescending aggressor. And to everyone else reading this exchange, we're probably just a couple of bickering children.
That is the last response I will be making for this. Thanks again for your time. Just please don't be so condescending like that and you'll get much better results in the future.
