I learnt a lot here since I arrived at the end of Jan.'97 such as:
Critical thinking--questioning everything,
A discussion format which doesn't necessarily arrive at a definite conclusion,
but stimulates a lot of ideas.
More than one model (philosophy) can make sense.
Focusing on the thought process more than ideology.
That you can gain something by debating things with people with a different
point of view.
I got a lot of information and new perspectives either directly or indirectly
from my interaction here
and I thank Richard B. for telling me about CoV.
Over the past couple of weeks I've started introducing critical discussion
to another mailing list, an objectivist group, in which I attack their
ideology.
I plan ot be away from my computer over the next couple of weeks. Is there a way
I could
unsubscribe temporarily but get some sort of digest or summary of the posts?
