Now we're getting somewhere (or in a sense, nowhere, if you demand it). But since I'm not as intellectually practiced in philosophy as you are, I'm not only going to take some time to read this before responding again, but I'll reflect upon it and my answer too. May even mow the lawn, but at least get my nose out of this HP laptop for awhile.

"intellectually practiced in philosophy"

BTW, is that what you call a tautology? But maybe it's as distinct from being unintellectually practiced in philosophy, for "better" or "worse."
