On the contrary. I asked whether you were "categorically stating that no other species or life form has ever written a book or something of equivalent meaning/significance". Now, "categorically" means without exception or qualification. Leaving open possibilities such as those you mention above is a qualification. If your answer to my question is "no", then you cannot at the same time admit such a possibility.


So you have contradicted yourself. Please clarify.

Once again, I don't think you comprehend.  You asked me if I was categorically stating that no other life form has ever written a book.  My answer is no, meaning I was not categorically stating that.

So no contradiction, I'm afraid.
If you focus on the cloud, and conceive of it just as you would a dream you are trying to interpret, with practice its meanings and memories will be revealed to you.

So do you categorically agree that my original statement was in no way problematic?

Goodness no, it sounded pompous as all hell.

Aesthetic sensibilities aside?

I am categorically stating that no other species or life form has ever written a book or something of equivalent meaning/significance ON EARTH?

What's your point?

Books are flat. Perhaps that's what we should rename this thread.
When Tom farts, the special gasses released open a sort of worm hole into the past. There Tom is able to freely discuss with Rowbotham all of his ideas and thoughts.

Maybe trees are flat too. Because paper is made from trees... and paper is flat... My god I've solved the greatest scientific mystery of all time!
