[MD] The need for quality

Hello Everyone; 

The minute I hear this person is an expert, we should all follow him, its not a quality statement. 
"If we are all thinking the same, then no one is really thinking." Its a quote and I agree. 
It does not matter if Kahlil was shot down. Why was he shot down? 
Probably most likely was to keep everyone thinking the same, that way dynamic quality can be thwarted.

In 2004 already, khalil mentioned the connection of Lila => as Laila,as 
the divine essence in Arabic?/related to the Whirling Derwishes,the 
divine,and mysticism. 

snip from the archives. (2004) i'm sure you can find it. 

"http://www.moqtalk.org/archivedata/moq_discuss/2002%20-%202005/7318.html 

so you have a valid case, Wes.But can we read Laila=>as Lila,if we keep in 
mind that in fact Phaedrus => Faidrus or Phaidrus,(from Plato/Socrates), 
obviously.! 

http://oll.libertyfund.org/titles/plato-the-dialogues-of-plato-vol-1 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phaedrus_(dialogue) 

so Pheadros is really only the interlocutor.Derwishes can be seen as 
interlocutors.One hand to the skies, one to the earth.Mystic sjamanism. 
We are all whirling sjamans.We all whirl around theism sometimes.
