[MD] Intellect Worship

[John Carl]

Steve,
 Intellect is an art, one of many. I agree.

You can quibble with me any time, big boy.  Especially if I'm wrong.

Ok, I'm dissing individualism, so I'm with you there... I'm dissing Bo on my
own over there in a nother thread and I don't diss intellect but I do diss
intellectualism - the idea of intellect being the hierarchical overlord of
creation instead of a subset of art.

And I certainly concur about the interplay of the levels in all things
humanly conceived.

I think we're pretty much in concord, Steve.

Rats, nothing to discuss.

:-)
