And so I feel perfectly entitled to ask Kosta questions, and to expect answers. I have some more questions for him, borrowed from Eric Voegelin for the occasion:
...[W]hy do important thinkers like Comte or Marx refuse to apperceive what they perceive quite well? why do they expressly prohibit anybody to ask questions concerning sectors of reality they have excluded from their personal horizon? why do they want to imprison themselves in their restricted horizon and to dogmatize their prison reality as the universal truth? and why do they want to lock up all mankind in the prison of their making? — E. Voegelin, "Remembrance of Things Past," Collected Works of Eric Voegelin, Vol. 12, p. 304f. Emphasis added.Why indeed???
Thank you so much, dear sister in Christ, for writing!
Obviously Voegelin's questions do not apply to me. I don't know whom he had in mind when he wrote those. Let me guess: he was referring to Hitler's Germany? Wasn't he?
So, I see your label-maker works even when it is supposedly turned off. First you compare me to Laputan idiots and now to Hitler's Germany? I can't wait to see what's next.
What did I do to "deserve" dishonor? Because I said the society makes up morality; morality doesn't exist in nature; what is moral is relative; good is what we personally perceive as beneficial, etc.
How does this, in your peculiar mind, justify asking me "why do they expressly prohibit anybody to ask questions?" Can you back this up with examples?
why do they want to imprison themselves in their restricted horizon and to dogmatize their prison reality as the universal truth? and why do they want to lock up all mankind in the prison of their making?
Maybe you should ask yourself that question.
