Greg, You ask: "That last quote you gave... to paraphrase... is he saying "The 'is' of identity... is the foundation of the insufficiency of the system" Is he allowed to use is when discussing what is is?" Note that Bourland was quoting Korzybski who, "though he inveighed against the Identity and Predication usages of 'is', he continued to use them." With regard to Korzybski falling into the 'Is Trap', Bourland later writes: "Prior to the advent of E-Prime, Korzybski had more to say about the inherent dangers of the 'to be' of Identity and Predication than any other critical thinker. And yet he himself fell into the 'Is Trap' to the extent of using those two constructions in some 37% of his sentences in Science and Sanity." I wonder whether or not you fully realize that actually investing a bit of time in familiarizing oneself with the material in question prior to voicing criticism of it can be a worthwhile practice. e_lie |
