OK, this is a classic example of the *intent* I spoke of in a post last week, "Thou shalt not suffer a TM critic to be thought well of." As I see it (and Vaj...I like you, guy, but I'm going to be almost as critical of you in this rap as I am of the "pile on" crew) the thread started with Vaj saying something that pushed EmptyBill's ego buttons and made him squeal "Gotcha" inwardly. He leaped into the fray with his normal *intent* and modus operandi, which is "spiritual dick size contest." Another way of stating this intent and standard operating procedure is "Gotcha you s.o.b. Nyaaaah nyaaaah I know more than you, and thus my spiritual dick is longer than yours." To his discredit, Vaj often does the exact same thing. Who the fuck CARES what you guys know from what you have read about *other people's spiritual experiences*? Every time you two get into one of these armchair academic dick-size contests, I consider BOTH of your dicks smaller.
That's why I typically ignore E. Bill's diatribes. They're similar to Judy's old diatribes in that their underlying intent seems to be to mischaracterize deliberately and lead one into a maze of misdirected points, while at the same time demonizing the person. When you sense the underlying intention, you realize 'why waste my time?'.
