Thanks. Being a classically trained scientist and engineer, I think systematically (its also why I’m a good Lutheran theologian).

But, the Socratic method used is collaborative and spontaneous; there are no stupid responses to Q-drops. The free association seen in these threads contributes to overall knowledge of the gathered. I say, let’s not get too rigid.

Yes, the only thing demanded of the Socratic method is that anyone participating be genuinely engaged in the discussion and seeking the truth of subject in question.

Critical thinking is not indoctrination but the stimulation of brain synapses working together in a synergystic manner so that the whole becomes greater than the sum of the parts!

Q stimulates this process, a process that has always existed since the beginning of Freerepublic, much to the chagrin of the establishment, the liberal left, the DNC, the GOPe, and any other enemies of freedom everywhere and of Our American Constitution in particular!

Thanks again for Jim Robinson and his brainchild, to all Freepers that believe in truth, justice, and the American Dream and give their time and energies to keep America Free, to a great God that has allowed us to live in times such as these and to remain faithful, to the blessings of Godly leadership missing from our shores for many, many years!

MAGA! God bless America!
