>with the limitations the Absolutists state... just say "yeah
>i agree. and they'll leave you alone"

please explain the "Absolutists limitations".

then, please explain the alternative, and it's lack of limitation...

unless of course by that second part, you are just implying Bartek's "I am everything I am nothing the world is me the world is not me I am the devil but God too and Yin and Yang and hot and cold and everything I want is what I want because I want nothing and everything" nonsense. And I mean nonsense in the most literal way possible.

Tell me another way to address the thought process of someone who claims to have created THEMSELVES.

I look forward to discussion with both of you.

By the way...

I'm an Orwell fan too. I've read every work and essay. But he was a tortured man that led a VERY unhappy life. You can have insight into sociology and still be wrong about a lot of shit.

peace.
