I mentioned it because it’s where I’ve been a couple weeks now, but then your take on it is offensively off base.
I know you don’t know what I’m talking about with interacting with infants and toddlers, by your asides.
But little of my perspective can make sense without truly recognized our evolved biological nature, and to really face up to the Physical Reality ~ Human Mind divide and all that flow from that mind set.
And the realization that it’s our bodies who lend us our sense of self while creating the mind we understand the world through.
You are happy with ancient geniuses - me I look at the human state of our modern supposedly informed minds that they helped create, and am terrified, appalled, (and yes angry too) and I can’t help myself from trying to recognize and write about the fundamental causes for us failing at our human experiment so spectacularly.
Of course, being impressed with an intellectual poser (since he so casually way oversteps his realm of expertise.) like Pinkert, all you’re left with is like: problem, what problem, we are doing fine, nothing to regret. Oh sure it’s not perfect, but nothing to worry about.
Like I said we are having two different conversations. One still trapped within the human world of thoughts - with physical reality more a product of those thoughts, rather then any stone cold sober recognition of the physical/biological realm that creates our respective (and collective) human minds (read thoughts).
