No, you take heed: People will not engage with you while ever you persist in preaching to them and talking in a language they don't understand. Assuming you want people to engage with you, which you appear to, you are going to have to adapt to them, rather than expect them to adapt to you. I could be wrong of course, perhaps you enjoy writing posts that no one is interested in. Even so, what would you have to lose by giving behaving like a normal person a trial run. If you don't find it more rewarding you can always go back to the weird stuff and being ignored.
But then isn't that what you and Belinda demand I adapt to by making staements like
Unless you use the explicit language endorsed by philosophy gurus I cannot be bothered to talk to you any more about how we can know stuff.
But I don't understand that stuff, why would I engage in stuff that doesn't ring true to my innate understanding of what constitutes reality? Isn't that being hypocritical? You assume I'm wanting people to adapt, your words not mine, and yet you seem to want same from me, for me to adapt to your way of thinking......it's a catch 22...isn't it?
Notice that this is my thread that I started, so it's up to me how I dictate it. No one is being forced to read or respond to this thread, that you choose to do so is confusing to me when you start to piss and moan about it, perhaps because it's not to your taste or understanding. And you then accuse me of preaching, but it's okay for you to preach your explicit philosophic language that I don't understand ...don't make me laugh, talk about double standards.
Also, to bring to your attention which I don't think you have ever thought about, notice I do not enter other peoples threads on this forum and start telling them I do not understand what you are talking about please explain with explicit language...I simply do not engage with what I do not know... if I have no idea what they are talking about it makes sense not to go there... How could I engage in a discussion if I don't understand the subject?
So just why do you bother coming to my threads? ..do you feel threatened by them or something, does what I write about make you feel like you are missing some particular knowledge that you think you should know about, or does it make you feel like you have some better knowledge that you have to defend?
It's a free world, we are entitled to free speech, I can talk about what the hell I like, if you don't like it then shove off, and that's that. You consistently mention that people are out to ignore me, and yet you don't seen to be doing that do you...why don't you practice what you preach to yourself and leave me alone in peace.
Everyone is our teacher Harbal, everyone. If the shoe fits wear it, but don't deny other people their own unique views on reality.
