impaul - for myself I don't think fighting darkworkers is necessary at all. I do think the work to do is inside work, and I also think forgiving darkworkers is important work.
You are constantly taking extremely analytical approaches to this topic and it really doesn't and won't get you anywhere. You need to ease off the pure rational analysis and let some right-brained metaphor in there. Steve is throwing out metaphors and analogies that he thinks can be useful, and you are extending them to levels which I doubt he intended them to be taken too.
Every metaphor can be pushed too far and thereby made meaningless. If this concept could be described simply and logically and be 100% internally consistent, we wouldn't have to use metaphor.
