Dick,

I really do want to continue our great line of questions. The trouble is that your last response left the T/F format and started up with the back and forth essay style which I have found ineffective with you. What I need is to let things quiet down a little and start back up again (i.e., if you care to do so at that time). Even though I enjoy epistemological discussions, please keep in mind that it is not my 'first love' when in comes to philosophy. I really enjoy philosophy of science and religion and I tend to pick up other philosophical discourses as my primary interest 'runs dry'.

Another point is that epistemological skepticism is a very long drawn out issue. It takes a great deal of time discussing the justification of skepticism and belief and therefore I see it as a longterm discussion (something that we will do over the course of months - versus over a few weeks). I apologize again for my attitude here and hope you don't mind overly much. I have only so much time and I have to think and constantly rephrase questions to make any real progress. I prefer to do that when things get quiet. If you don't wish to wait until those times I certainly respect your decision in this kind of matter.

Hoping to continue at some point...?

Warm regards, Harv
