As Emerson pointed out, consistency is a sign of a weak and timid mind. You will find on this blog many contradictions. In a chaotic (one might say anarchic) universe, consistency is absurd. Find my contradictions if you like; point them out if you like; but get over them. Like Whitman, I contain multitudes. There are as many ways to look at things as there are things. Dogma is disastrous and one of the major poisons contaminating our schools and culture at every level. Questions matter more than truths. There is no end to thinking.

"Real education must ultimately be limited to men who insist on knowing, the rest is mere sheep-herding." ~Ezra Pound
