Mia: "each his own way."

Point: That's just an ignorant way to see things.

Mia: I do not think that the human being can, by reason, have access to this universal law in its totality, it is not an affirmation. In this case, why always need to refer to different authors, we should be able to do it alone.

Point: who is talking about totality? Did you heard about non-all?There is no need to point to different authors, but I mentioned them so you can read more on that.

Mia: "as if you have omnipotent knowledge"

Point: that's your projection of my replies.

Mia: without any evidence, but you play with words, which I don't appreciate. You make it seem like you're always trying to be right.

Point: Again. What kind of evidence? Are you positivistic empiricits? Me always right? Why would then I reference other authors? "Me" is not importat here. And no. I'm not playing with words. This stuff is logical and I'm saying it from the begging.

Mia: It seems that you can only express yourself through others, the multiple authors read or otherwise, almost like copied-pasted.

Point: I don't even try to express "myself", we are not in art class. And even here I'm sure I could teach you draw, not only "expressing one inner true self". I'm replying to you. You cannot think without concepts. Botanical nomenclature has nothing to do with thinking. That is why I kindly recommend philosophy to you instead. Not to repeat after them, but to establish a diaologue and to increase the granularity of your thought.

Mia: I think we have reached the end of our exchanges, for me at this point they are no longer constructive. Thank you for the many exchanges, each one his way.

Point: I don't know why you sound so cynical.

Of course, there is a spectrum of certainties. I hope you are not absolutely sure that you are not "vibrating" with me ;)

Yes, we don't live through others, but we can learn from others. And what is essential learning? Listening to others can open up one's ego; that's called love ;)
