[MD] Creative Freedom

Just one point, one without much bearing on the substance of the issue....

David H said to dmb:
Finally, as an aside - your frustrations with misunderstandings and disagreements here I find rather curious..  Of course we are going to have disagreements and struggle to explain our ideas so that others understand them.  This is what the MD is all about IMHO.  We are here to explain our understanding of the MOQ to others.  If someone's ideas are better than my own, I'll tell them.  If I don't think what they say explains my experience as good as it could I'll tell them.  Philosophy discussion is never easy. But I'd argue that through that struggle it's rewarding as well...



dmb says:

I'm not frustrated by disagreements and everybody knows that philosophical issues are not easy to talk about. What bugs me are the little stupidities like demanding evidence AFTER it has already been given several times, like asking questions that have already been answered several times. It's the lazy readers who make you say everything five times. That's what bugs me. It has to put some kind of put-on because no fan of philosophy could be that bad at reading. Frankly, I think it's contemptible, gumption-sucking bullshit and I hate it.
