Well, I saw this post a few days ago for the first time. I must say I was both surprized and dissappointed. I expressed to you the fact that I was busy. I have a very limited time on these boards as I am trying diligently to spend as much time with my wife as possible before my return up North. Thanks for your understanding.
I had not forgotten your post, nor was I ignoring you, nor playing some childish prank. I merely was distracted with other things. As I mentioned on a post a few weeks ago, I had begun reading a series of articles on personal identity, and seeing as the discussion on one of the other boards breeched that topic, I felt the desire to indulge. I did not realize that we had a monogamous posting relationship!
As a matter of fact, I had spent some of my time brushing up on my cosmology and reviewing a really good book that I had on the subject (Soul: God, the Self, and the New Cosmology by Angela Tilby) so that I might address some of the points that you raise.
Well, that is beside the point now. I have no intention of continuing a conversation with you now. It amazes me that the fact that I can go just four days without responding to your post and you would leave a post of that variety!
