i'm starting to get it, i think. as much as an average person can anyway. sorry i implied you were a nihilist. i was just looking for some further explanation.
it's not that i don't appreciate absurdity. i do. it's just that i find rationality much too convenient to give up. (what a typically american thing to say...) and i think it's critical for actual communication, though our dialogue may be beginning to controvert that belief.
of course beliefs are limitations. that's their purpose. i use some of them to strike a balance between utter confusion (or chaos of thought) and dogma. if i understand your stance correctly, you're promoting the extreme choas of thought. i can respect that. i just try to stay away from taking extremes too seriously. doesn't mean i can't learn from them.
