If asking for clarity and precision in meaning is an ascention to the pulpit of dogma
then bullshit and lies reign supreme.
Mr. Rats,
What you are proposing is Analytical philosophy and this forum is dedicated to a form of continental
philosophy in the tradion of what is known as Pragmatism. The difficulty you face is that you are not
really in the company of your peers in this group, of course you can have fun exploring any wild
speculations and there are those here who will entertain anything and everything in that regard but
keep in mind there are going to be those who want to keep the conversations on topic and within
the context of the forum. Calling them Dogmatic priests of a flatland mentality is just plainly missing
the context of the situation.
Philosophers you may want to explore: Bertram Russel, Wittgenstein, Gottlob frege you might want
to search out forums that dedicate themselves to Analytic Philosophy for a more satisfactory response.

Beautifull!!
To me it's turtles all the way down for those who chose to live in cultural
flatland. The sad thing is that when you try to show those people another
dimension there 's alway a High priest who is gonna ascend the pulpit to
preach the dogma's of flatland. And his vlok............tsja...........:-(
