Hi Astralusenet,
Re: The adjective I used, sober,
You wrote:
It is incredibly unlikely Einstein ever stated the phrase "sober" regarding metaphysicists.
The adjective he used is immediately quoted:
A kind of tamed metaphysicist.
I provided another adjective for clarity and emphasis.
Re: The adjective you used, skeptical,
What, exactly, is the metaphysicist skeptical of ?
If you can, please provide a citation which supports Einstein's use of that adjective.
You told me:
If you wish to debate contentious issues can you do this with the NPOV in mind please ?
Where's the contension ?
Are you still talking about my choice of adjectives ? Why is your choice so much better and less contentious ?
