I don't really know what "experiential philosophy" is, but in answer to your
first question, it seems to me that affirmation of life is not compatible
with respecting beliefs that one regards as inimical to life.  So affirmation
of life, paradoxically, may imply an intolerance.  We are back to the question
of the relationship between "poetry" and "assassination".
