you can guess.
pontificate and theorize all you like.
but it is all your own presumptions based on your own limited,subjective understandings.
the intelligent person proceeds from the self awarenesss of their own ignorance.
I do not know you,so I proceed from that understanding.
I do not assume your motivations,and only tacitly your intentions by our interactions.
i do not know your level of education.
i do not know your regional and cultural influences.
do not know your family dynamic,nor your trials and challenges you have had to overcome.
sure,i have my assumptions,but i realize they are born from my own bias,and based on very little.so i keep my assumptions to myself and allow our interactions to help form a clearer picture.
and you do give far more information than you may be aware,but i still have to be cognizant that i am limited by my own subjective understandings,and i can be wrong.
i have no issue with being wrong.
now i will offer you this little nugget,which you can do with what you will:
"Like I said...you like to have everyone believe you're so very middle of the road and above the fray. You're not used to being challenged...oh, sure, you're used to being opposed...but you're not used to being challenged..."
is so off the mark,so cold that it is sub-freezing.
you aren't even on the board.
and to even state something like that, with such certitude,is just arrogant.
you don't know me.
if you did,you would realize that what you keep stating,as if it is a fact,because you said it.
is ignorant.
so i guess that is one assumption i can state,due to our interactions.
you are ignorant in regards to me,my motivations,intentions,education and background.
toodles.
