Oh, I see. You're comic strip loopy and I'm sudafed loopy.
I don't get the impression that Paul is saying the whole thing is wrong so much as he doesn't get how it would be helpful for him -- resists it somewhat, but remains open to it through furthering discussion because maybe there's something there for him. Right, Paul? Sorry to talk about you in the third person.
Max, on the other hand, does seem to convey that one viewpoint has to be wrong for the other to be right, right? Or that somehow there is fear inherent in what Steve is saying about SR? I don't quite follow that. Actually, there's a lot here I don't quite follow.
One think I did think I understood about subjective reality is that it's a useful, empowering, and fun perspective, and that you can just fool around with it, you don't have to get married
. So it does tweak my brain a little bit when folks "argue" with it, because it makes me think there's something big I'm missing about SR. I just can't quite get there, with or without my cold medicine. I'll keep trying.
(that's me, covering up my swollen eyeballs, not being cool.)
