It is a failing of which I'm not proud -- especially in light of the fact that my dear friend and mentor, George Michael Evica, lived for opportunities to teach and possessed seemingly limitless reserves of patience.
Patience with even the most impenetrable of minds.
Here's my answer, David:
I have neither the temperament nor the patience to attempt to slash my way through what I find to be your impenetrable smilax of interwoven misinterpretation, circular reasoning, and what are either unwitting misstatements of my original posts (the product, I must assume, of an utter lack of sophistication in matters relating to this case) or perhaps even intentional misstatements in service to hostile agendas.
I'll make it simple for you: I have concluded that you either cannot grasp the concepts I put forward, or you refuse to grasp them.
Either way, when you address me you commit the unforgivable sin of boring me.
You shall now accuse me of being evasive. And for once your charge is right on the money.
I am indeed evading further discourse with you for the same reason I might evade opportunities to discuss Wittgenstein with a wallaby.

If an individual, through either his own volition or events over which he had no control, found himself taking up residence in a country undefined by flags or physical borders, he could be assured of one immediate and abiding consequence: He was on his own, and solitude and loneliness would probably be his companions unto the grave.

You can't blame the innocent, they are always guiltless. All you can do is control them or eliminate them. Innocence is a kind of insanity.
