“In life we make progress by conflict and in mental life
by argument and disputation.... There must be confrontation
and opposition, in order that sparks must be kindled.
Only an open conflict of
ideas and principles can produce
any clarity.” (J. S. Mill)
any clarity.” (J. S. Mill)
“Crying Peace! Peace Where
There is No Peace. “ But there
is Virtual Noetic Fight Club.
Cerebral Wrestling. Israelic.
Better than gluten-free golf,
bottle-water jogging, binging,
purging & cutting, PSD
(photo-shop dysmorphia),
Christianmingle, ritalin, adderall et al--whenever 2 or 3
gather to contend,
argue, dispute, beg to differ, caterwaul,
rap, quarrel: practicing and celebrating the unpostponed
joy of converse action. Or what’s a Facebook good for?
“Without Contraries is No
Progress.” Bring it. Bring it on.
Wrestle ye merry. Make the world a better place.
