“We don’t teach our students how to argue,”
said the Professional Educator
We’re no good at it ourselves, either.
Need we ARGUE? Of course. We must. OR
what’s a college for?
IE. arg “to shine”-genuine, brilliant,
clarity. Gk. argos – white,
Argentina – city of shining light.
Jason and the Argonauts – sailing
after the golden fleece.
as opposed to
Edification. Liberal Art .
Building up a shared shining, clarity.
Excuse me, in my idiocy I call this a representation
of the holy grail, Dan Brown and his DaVinci coding
not with standing: always right under our very gnosis.
Is this a picture of two faces facing or a goblet?
Which is the figure? Which is the background?
Need we argue?
Argument is the liberal art.
Need we argue? Emergent values and
phenomena rising up out of our back
and forth,
no it isn’t
yes it is
beg to differ
why of course
you don’t say
I’m not kidding,
seriously, know
what I mean, know
what I’m saying? No
not yet but keep it going
oh sustain!
Wasn’t that good for
you that converse action!
And don’t be confusing the converse action with the topic,
content, so called subject matter. Mere token for play.
How else get good at it if your lost in the whatsamatter.
IT’s never about what its about
