Many a time has my temper been challenged by a certain unnamed goat, in these environs.
In very recent post of his, he has Alan Watts - When it all make sense.......
It all makes sense when you see the Tao.
In his little talk, Alan does manage to disparage poor, maligned Pangloss, who might well be a stand in for poor chicken little.

Since all information requires representation, the immaterial requires a physical substratum in order to exist.

dan wrote:Yes, hobbit, we agree that we need to learn the basics.
What are the basics?
Here are the basic questions, hobbit.......
Who are we........ from whence do we come, and whither do we go?
Do you have anything to say about these questions?
Before we can go any further, you need to address yourself to these questions.
Otherwise you come on as a clashing of cymbals....... full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
You say that we need to learn the patterns of nature, presumably so that we may better fit into Nature.
3:30.........
You suggest, hobbit, that we belong to nature. Maybe.
Maybe not.
There is no point in going further with a discussion, if you are not open minded to considering the possibility that we do not belong to nature.
