I too am controversial on many axes, which is maybe why I find you interesting - in an era when The Experts and Rationalists can't get even remotely hope to get their shit together, after being given decades to do it, seeing what the freaks even have to say about matters maybe isn't such a crazy idea.
It's sad that you and I differ on whether it's important to understand other people though. I wonder if there's anyone on this planet that is able to even consider the possibility that understanding is important, maybe even when it seems like it isn't. In any normal undertaking, if what you're trying isn't working, it would seem logical to try something else. But when the scope of the undertaking gets too large, this thinking seems to mysteriously change.
