How do you know this? If no step-by-step examples have been given, then what are you basing that assumption on?
Why not try showing some examples AND allowing Me to respond, and then you can respond back? Through this two-way discussing, what is actually true will come to light, for all to see.
How many times do I have to tell you that just because you see some thing then that in of itself does NOT make it correct?
I ACKNOWLEDGE and RECOGNIZE what you see (I some times purposefully write so that is what you WILL see. There is a reason I do this, as has been previously explained.) BUT I do NOT have to accept your account of there being contradictions and/or inconsistencies in what I write. I am the writer so only I KNOW what is meant in what I write. And, a truly open person clarifies with the writer/speaker. A truly open person does NOT make assumptions about what another person writes or says.
There is NO such thing as a closed Mind, but you are a long way from discovering and/or learning this just yet.
I have MANY times extended the offer to be challenged about what I say AND to clarify with Me about what I am actually saying and meaning. But to some people who see "contradictions" and/or "inconsistencies" in what I write they some times are NOT even open to the possibility that they may not actually be contradictions nor inconsistencies. These are the people who have to remember that NOT until they clarify with Me, the writer, then all they are stinging making assumptions, which obviously could be wrong.

You continually claim that your communication is misunderstood -– and that everyone needs to ask more clarifying questions of you. Do you have a need for people to “come to you”?
Do you have a need for people to come to you? Could you, would you, keep existing if NO one came to you?
WHY do you continually look for or see perceived "failings" in My personality instead of just clarifying with Me about what I write or just concentrating on exposing your perceived contradictions and inconsistencies in what I write?
You really have a thing about ego? WHY not just discuss what I write about instead of concentrating on what might or might not be happening?
WHY do you presume I am NOT doing that?
HOW do you KNOW how much I am listening to and seeing or not?
So that they are actually showing, all by themselves, how much they do and do NOT know.
WHY the continual assuming?
Once again trying to look at what the personality might be doing instead of looking at the actual words that are clearly written down for all to look at and SEE.
What is the disconnected avoidance game and how is it played?
What trip are you talking about?
I laugh at how stupid i and other human beings really are, and can be, probably far more than you ever have or will.
By the way was there one actual point you made about some thing I have wrote or was your whole thread here based on trying to look at and discuss the person?
Is that is what is meant to be done in philosophical discussions?
