Well I have to agree. For E-man is a dynamic philosopher as well. I have read all the greats. I have also added much pure new philosophy into the public square.

Remember Vicini from The Princess Bride?

Eman, you seriously need to stop thinking that everyone is out to replace Christianity. You came right in on this thread and assumed you had the power to stop any discourse outside of your pitiful little frame of reference. When will you realize you do not have control over anyone?

You are trying to get me to do exactly what you are doing now. I have never tried to control anyone except myself. And I love debate. It is just that I am right and most of the rest of your are wrong.

Wait... You tried to control yourself? When did that happen?

E-Man is in complete control of E-Man. I complete me.

One of the best philosophy books I've ever read is a small one "From Plato to Nietzsche." I've had to tape the cover back together several times.

You continue to refer to yourself in third person so I doubt you've read much philosophy beyond Calvin & Hobbs.

What's wrong with Calvin and Hobbs? Actually, E-man's philosophy is limited to just one book.
