Hello Bizantura,

You are both way ahead of me. I am thoroughly enjoying the book and thank both of you for all your suggestions.

I’m also reminded of CS Lewis’ observations that evil has to be FOUGHT, because ultimately it is irrational, and one cannot therefore ultimately “discuss” with it. So yes, if we’re cautious to the point of entertaining no risks, are we really human? I’d say no, since we’ve already surrendered that within us which makes us good, and…

… Nominalism is indeed raising its head. Surely “owning the culture” should mean
more than simply finding an acceptable means of socially constructing reality.-
That is not what I was inferring. I dislike censorship in any form. What I am a proponent of is free thinking which requires different information sources and opinions. If you do not like this (Gigi) source, then don’t listen to it; however, to discourage others from considering sources you do not appreciate, is a disservice to them, in my…

The opposite of nominalism is realism. Plato was perhaps the first writer in Western philosophy to clearly state a realist, i.e. non-nominalist, position:
… We customarily hypothesize a single form in connection with each of the many things to which we apply the same name. … For example, there are many beds and tables. … But there are…
