How philosophy works …
@tomgauld

Thanks Philosophy Matters….
Yes, of course, but not to let fools off-the-hook, who think this means that answers have no meaning: The answers are a thing, you bloody fools, which needs to be carefully listened to. Just because answers are temporal, as the whole of life, does not mean there is no meaning of life. If this sounds angry, it is anger at fools who are cynics who attack a person’s sense of meaning, because such individuals struggle to find their own personal meaning. I know I should feel sorry for them, but the ‘attacks’ in snip remarks makes me angry at their plain ignorance, even as the individuals brazenly denies it is so; they are unaware of their own personal attitude. Yes, it is everything, mysterious and knowable. Fools! And if I been so in the past, please forgive me. I repent.

Yes Neville – The critical attacker’s cynical remarks often reveal lot more about the attacker, than the attacked.
