Dear Rick, Thank you for your detailed response to my five objections to the "transferred language" interpretation of Kierkegaard. It is good to be in...
Dear Rick, Just a couple of short points in reply to your latest posting. First, you misunderstood the following sentence of mine: "I am concerned that...
Dear Rick, First & foremost thank you for the buttering up, I --am-- very sensitive to flattery, the wider open, the merrier... Accessorily, thank you for your...
Dear Mr. Stuart and Mr. Maloyan, In the past few days, it has repeatedly been made reference to --the Consortium®-- in the debate you are holding around,...
Yo, Ricker, thanks for the heads-up. I just got your second post (meddy, he sends me a copy of all of his posts so that I see them before they get posted by...
Dear Mederic, I completely agree with everything you say. I rather reluctantly used the term 'the Consortium' as Rick introduced it, and I was responding to...
Dear Rick, Let's revisit the first Kierkegaard quote from your May 1st posting: "And what does all of this mean when the reader now gathers together the...
Hello Rick, I haven't read the books for if I had, I would have understood of which books it was a question, I suppose -- unless you tricked me once more (you ...
Dear Jim, This is an amend I am due to: good luck to you in your struggle with Mr. Maloyan. And may the better win! No, no, no! And may the truth be winning! ...
Dear Jim, This is an amend I am due to: good luck to you in your struggle with Mr. Maloyan. And may the better win! No, no, no! And may the truth be winning! ...
Yet another one! I really Abuse. Aïe No, Aille! No. It's just to say that you should read football where it's written footbal. Capital. I must be incubating...
Dear Richard, 'The idea of appropriation creates an eddy-current I cannot fit into the picture. Can you or willyb do it for me? Seriously.' Seriously, I do not...
Dear Rick, I think our conversation under the title "The Consortium and Sickness" has just about run its course now. I feel that it has been a good discussion...
Rick, You may want to re-join this group with a different ID. For some reason I am being asked to approve every one of your emails even though I have the group...
Hello Rickets, now that you and Jim understand each other, which is to say that you agree that you disagree with each other on how to interpret SK, let me...
Hi Willy, I thought I'd pre-empt any posting from Rick by replying directly to your challenge. Here is the part of your posting that applies to me: ""Climacus...
Hi Jim, Professor Ferreira was one of the authors in the book that I wrote to; I offered a reading contrary to hers; never received a reply from her; don't...
Hi Willy, Yes, it sounds a good idea to continue our conversation of February concerning the nature of Kierkegaardian transitions and spheres of existence....
J.A. Hookah; I see where you want to revisit the tranny train as does Jim and that you have offered the tracks for choo-choo, mastication to the second power....
"The point here as everywhere is to keep the specific spheres separated from one another, to respect the qualitative dialectic, the tug of decision that...
Hi Willy, Your post is a commentary on this quote from Concluding Unscientific Postscript: "The point here as everywhere is to keep the specific spheres...
Yo, Ricky, why not? Spheres, and transitions, and things that go bump in the existential night. Naturally, I have some ideas, probably half-baked, that I would...
Hi Jim, forgive the delay. I sat on my first response then zapped it as argumentative beyond my style. My response to what you have written will begin with the...
J. A. Hookah, you bubble a bit but that's fine with me. First, let's take the scheme you propose and flesh it out some more. Let's call one of those takes the...
RM: <The question is how I as Johannes Climacus can base my eternal happiness, if at all, on a historical event. JC is speaking throughout the book and the...
Hi Willy, Let's continue to focus on the CUP quote. Here is the Lowrie version: "Here as everywhere the different spheres must be kept clearly distinct, and...
Hi Jim, I could respond point by point, with my spin to your spin of my spin to your spin of my spin, but I prefer to leave you with the last spin. If there is...
Hi Willy, Yes, perhaps it is best to leave our conversation where it is for the time being. Perhaps after I have read some more SK we can take up these themes...
Hi Rick, You ask me in what sense I am using the term 'deserve'. when I say that "only people who deserve to ascend to higher spheres of existence actually...
