In other words, being, as you claim, infallible (despite your myriad
errors in previous posts), you have no need to stand on the
shoulders of thousands of years of thought, but omnisciently and
immediately intuit "The Truth". You are solipsistically right and
everyone else is wrong. What magalomanic crapola!

I have posted original work upon this list which, unlike your
garbage, is actually worth a shit (if an offer of a teaching
assistanceship while I pursue my doctorate at Berkeley is any
indication). I do a wheat and chaff, provisionally both accepting the
reasonable perspectives of others and rejecting the unreasonable
ones (of which your diseased outlook is a shining, sterling and
dogmatic example), based upon a review for external coherence
and internal consistency (two properties your garbage
cospicuously lacks). Accept the fact that you are mentally ill and
delusional, forego any future pseudological rantings, and try
basketweaving. It'll be GOOD for you!

Only because you possess no logic with which to critique them, a
fact immediately obvious to any nonmoron who deigns to read your
diarrheal ravings.
