Subject: Re: morality as timidity


I remember when I first scanned this list, how I wondered at the
intimacy exhibited by some of the partitipants. Yet, one who shunned -
even revolted against - intimacy, was Mr. Rhodes. No familiarity for
him, cloistered away as he seems to be. Yet, in the midst of a
discussion amongst a new configuration of interlocutors, he chooses to
interject an intimate statement, one afforded only to one who has waited
and watched and waited again, in the darkness, in the cool moist air,
for a chance to expose a chink, a contradiction - perhaps ever so
slight  - so as to gain a bloody ounce (not a pound) of some type of
revenge. 

Such a wealth of waiting and of time. 

"That mankind be liberated from the spirit of revenge - this is my
highest hope and a bridge..."

Wait! What am I saying? You couldn't give a hoot...moral decrepitude.
How could one criticize from a position they routinely denigrate?

shucks...thought i had something there.

ps. and is this, too, a form of revenge...?
