   I don’t underestimate you. You are likely smarter than I am. I just disagree   
   with you. My children are smarter than I am but they have made mistakes   
   anyway. I sometimes disagree with them as well. I still love them. I don’t   
   dwell on their successes    
   and failures. But we all have limitations. And we all have different   
   abilities, weaknesses, circumstances, luck and perspectives. I wish you well   
   in your efforts toward your vision of a voluntary social relationship   
   structure.  I don’t pretend to know    
   the answer to a healthy society. There are “different strokes for different   
   folks”. None have lasted. Everything changes. That’s nature.

   "Machines may be predictable, but are also reliable. Conversely, humans change   
   their beliefs and their loyalties with remarkable, and distressing, ease."

   profound struggle, with despotism on one end and slavery on the other.” –   
   Tlaloc   
      
   “Our appetite encompasses everything.” – Cogitor Eklo   
      
   “Time depends on the position of the observer and the direction in which he   
   looks.” – Cogitor Kwyna   
      
   “The mind imposes an arbitrary framework called “reality,” which is   
   quite independent of what the senses report.” – Cogitors fundamental

   “Words are magic.” – Zufa Cenva   
      
   “Thoughts become weapons. Philosophies are distinct reasons for war. Good   
   intentions are the most destructive arsenal of all.” – Cogitor Kwyna
