The world of philosophy is a joy to behold for it has so many possibilities. Certainly not everything (in fact far from everything) in it is right or good, but most of it has been imaginative, creative and intent upon the betterment of life, existence, society and the self.

Part of the joy of a blog like this is that a broad diversity of opinion should be created, aired, argued, and at times rejected or forgotten. For where else can such dialog, and at times monologue take place?
A science faculty would probably reject such an anti-rationalist from the outset, so too would many philosophy departments. And yet mavericks within their fields have perservered. Wittgenstein and Feyerabend (in terms of philosophy) fought against the odds at times.

Opinion is no more a valid method than conjecture or rationalism or reason. Each is a method by which an ideology and worldview is propagandized.

Some of the relatavism and epistemological anarchism I have been promoting of late has been about tearing down the walls of rigid and uncritical thinking. Nietzsche did it, Wittgenstein did it, Feyerabend did it and there are plenty who follow. It is ironic and sad that in discussing intellectual and individual freedom we should seemingly reach such an impasse as makes progress unachievable and seem afraid to express our ideas freely.
I am reminded of certain articles of what was once called the Postmodernist creed. A title no-doubt that you would abhor anyway, but it seems much of the diverse material I seek to present and to elaborate upon often crashes against the rocks of your systematic and unwavering method. Compromise seems to be highly valued and yet secretly guarded (a fault perhaps we both possess).
“Be open to ideas.
Feel free to disagree, but give space to let be.
Do not be convinced that you have the totality of the truth in your grasp, there is always more. Be not like the boy who thought he could put the sea in a bucket!
When challenged and seemingly engulfed by a system take out the tools of deconstruction, let it fall apart like a Meccano set. Recognize the component parts for what they are, cultural influences, power plays and confirmational bias.
Feel the mystery blowing in your face for it is alright to be perplexed and awestruck, be open to the unknown.”

It is perhaps pure unadulterated madness to you, but I am certain there is method in it.
