Thus, moral actions is our work our grace and harmony and effective instrument of mind, because rhythm and harmony find their way imparting grace, and good is when reason comes and...

The extreme left of Michael Moore and Slavoj Žižek plus no doubt Noam Chomsky and if he could he would arise out of his grave Jacques Derrida, want to, repeat, WANT TO, no NEED TO own this movement.

RICK LEWIS OR MOD SQUAD:

Could we have [like] buttons in the posts please?

It is not surprising that one leader-elite spectacularly taking down another leader-elite (of the opposition), preaching to the choirs, attracts the same Hippies in the same droves as in the 60s, when the parents' generation had to be annihilated.

I say we learn from recollection, constructing forms that we believe, will fit the contents of our world intuitively yet precisely, until we realize our dream or we realize our mistake.

For example, I just went to reply to your post about the neuropsychologist who had the heart-attack and lo' an' behold! It's gone? Do you thin...

No problem Spheres, sorry I confused you. I honestly didn't even suspect it might be understood differently, so I am glad that was pointed out and defused.
