No, that was not a rhetorical question, it was an inquiry to the meaning of your seemingly ad-hoc questioning of Anthony's reasons for doing this site. I mean your argument had the validity of "what if c- a- t really spelled dog? You mentioned that he is silent unless his words are spoken and I think this is a point that is so absurd that it warrants questioning why you stated it. for if that was what you were really trying to say, then I would think you are negating every author and thinker that ever lived with out having their voice recorded and played to the masses. As for your apparent sarcasm toward me, that is fine, just try not to argue on points that have no merit, and start asking relevant questions.
And, I am glad that you feel you have won a "victory" over Anthony in getting him to see his views in a different light "so quickly." Yet I feel a remorse that he even conceded any points to you. And the fact that you think those out there searching on the internet do not need to read this stuff because they are out there exploring and looking for answers is just....blah. I mean you give internet users waaaaaay to much credit. If anyone in the world is "locked" into a certain frame of mind (in my experience) it is people who thrive on technological advancement and pratically worship this new medium.
I mean if anyone is more cynical or hell bent on the supremacy of their craft it would be those that I have met in this field. I am just furious at the fact that we as a people, species whatever feel that technolgy is the single mobilizer and answer giver is just disgusting. I feel it can help and that it is a tool, but at the end ofthe day, a computer is a dmb machine that is worthless unless it has a humna running it. I think we all forget that anymore.
look all I really wanted to know was why you questioned soemthing so simple and take it for the literal, mind numbing truth. Have some imagination, think, offer, don't just try question when questioning is not needed.
