How?!?, by saying I don't think it's so complete or deverse in nature to "justify DISMISSING" other theories and ideas? By saying that it was so complete or deverse in nature that it did justify the dismissal of Other theories and ideas would be an ineffective learning strategy. I'm not making any conclusions about it's contents, other than the pressuposition that their are other ideas, theories, and possibilities available at any given moment, they only require thought to be accessed. You see Mr. Nagy, biologically speaking, we're playing with the same cards, although we may have different hands, the results of the game depend on how we play OUR hand. For me, or anyone else for that matter, to conceed that anything in relation to them depends on whether or not they read a paticular book, would be a very debillitating concesion. The fact I'm engaged in this debate with you lends creedance to my belief in new ideas and possibilities, as by doing so has surely raised a great deal of curiousity concerning the nature of a book that instigates such strong convictions on your part. I'm sure you realize right now, that their is more than one way to do anything. All you have to do is, think about it. |
