    if you can’t explain your position, I’m not going to go looking for support for you.

      it’s not my position, but the book author’s. i doubt i could do a good job explaining it, as i haven’t gotten very far in to it.

      sometimes people are curious, and just want to know that the information exists. that is me. I’m reading the book as a challenge for myself, because i disagree with the premise.

      other times people i guess think that you could cover a complex topic like this in bite-sized spoon-fed internet comments and memes. i feel pity for those guys.

        I have a philosophy degree. I don’t need you to cover the topic. I asked you to support your position.
