As far as I can tell you are looking for simple answers. You want others to provide a convincing case, in this case about God, since this might help you with ‘how one ought to live’. But in the above quote here you seem to realize that issues of self - which would include yourself - must necessarily be on the table. If your behavior does not match what you claim your intentions are, then this is relevent. How can one possibly help you in your quest if you do not seem to know what you are doing?
If your approach to knowledge is limited, as some of us have suggested, how can that issue not possibly be relevent. But your approach, obviously created by your dasein, is, for some reason, sacred to you, off the table, sacrosanct. You will not try any other approach to knowledge gaining. Yet, we must take at face value that you want to achieve the goals you say you have and never once do you actually show a willingness to see how dasein might be affecting your approach, to see for example if achieving your goals could happen in another way.
The person who spends the most time saying that what we believe and do depends on dasein is utterly unwilling to consider that his approach could be amended to achieve this goals.
Anyone moving into this area will get a message indicating how ridiculous it might be that we know something about you better than you do.
Below of course you imply that you know what I am really up to and why I feel hostility. IOW performing this act your consider ridiculous when it has to do with you. IOW hypocrisy.
Back in the OP when talking to Zinnat you are shocked that the definition of the I is something he sees as irrelevent.
The ‘I’ and it’s definition is relevent, as you point out. Since you are always going on about how we need to ground the issue, and deal with a specific case…
how the fuck could you as a specfic individual NOT be the most relevent case when it comes to helping you figure out ‘how you ought to live’?
But this yis always the last thing you want to focus on. And it is the only thing you are not willing to change or question.
The hostility comes from a number of things: the smugness that you think is not present if you add in a disclaimer that maybe you are not correct in your mind reading. YOu can’t take responsibility for your own attitudes. The cluelessness coupled with an unwillingness to openly question your own approach. The way you interpret everything through your own goals as if the only function we have is to satisfy your goals. The amount you repeat yourself to people who obviously understand your position. The hypocrisy I pointed out above around your own mind reading. There are other reasons, which I have pointed out before in other posts. But here you are again pretending to ask, as if you haven’t gotten answers, while mind reading away, but making it seem like you are being consistant with your supposed doubt by not saying it directly.
Coquettish assholery is still assholery.
Other people here take responsibility for their reactions. You think you are not responsible or even really affecting anyone.
But now all this doesn’t bother me.
Why? Because you are not the audience of my posts about you.
You do not listen. You do not learn. Once I truly got this in my gut, I could feel sympathy for you again - which I did much earlier.
And the interest comes only in how others relate to what you do and will continue to do.
IOW this is for the gallery. Why? Because they can learn and I can learn from them. A process of development can take place.
I could learn from you before, because even dealing with sometone who does not change and cannot change while proclaiming to desire above all else to change can be useful, even if the how of that usefulness is not clear during much of the process. But there’s a limit.
But noticing what happens around the edges of you, where change can and does take place, there I can learn.
But you know better about my hostility. Good. I know I cannot change that or anything else about you. And you cannot change any of it in dynamic relation to me. Your posts will retain the same form and general content and certainly the same approach until you can no longer post. It is certainly one form of life.
