Critical Thinking

Critical Thinking

Play & Be Played

School & Be Schooled

  School ("leisure")  is called gymnasium in Europe

                 aka: “naked training.”

      

Torn between 2 loves: the savvy and the stupid.

smartipants & fundamentalists,  critical thinkers

& snake handlers,  secular humanists & religious

humanists,  democrats &  republicans, Obama

lovers and Obama haters,  atheists & godly,

occupiers and preppers, John Stuartists and

Bill O’Reilly, Good guys and Bad Guys—it’s

excruciating., my divided loyalties I can’t

stand it.  Sophie’s choice.    

Seriously: I don’t know who is more annoying:

smart people or stupid people. Aggravating in

different incommensurate ways.  Same with nice

people and nasty. You’d think it’d be a no-brainer.

But I find both  equally bothersome  in different

ways. Do I have to spell this out?  I don’t think so.   

I’m building the Tower of Babel single-handedly,

connecting earth to heaven for the good of  man

unkind.  Sounds presumptuous if not grandiose

but never the  less:  my mission from  god & I’m

compelled to obey.  Un-cooperative & so  no lack

of  understanding among  builders seeing as I’m

the only  one to be making the  world a better

place, bridging  2 incommensurate realms

and me:  mediator, pontificator
