<DIV>>>one of the stronges cultural norms in our (globalized occidental)
culture is logical thinking. It is assumed. Worse: it is a conditioned reflex.
Who of you would be able to give an immediate answer to the question: which are
the four logical axioms? O suppose only people with philosophical
specialization. Nobody teaches and reflects on logics at schools for everybody.
Nobody learns logics at school. But everybody uses it. Logical thinkin is a MUST
without beeing tought. Isn't that remarkable?</DIV>
<DIV><BR>In China and Japan the Tao "logics" (Yin-Yang, Tao-Te-King) is taught
even to the little ones at school. So they can select and decide, which one to
apply. We can not. So we are interculturally a lot more handicapped than they
are. Because we can not reflect about something we do not have the words
for.<FONT face=Papyrus color=#000080 size=2><<</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Papyrus color=#000080 size=2>Perhaps we need not concern
outserves with a sense of having arrived. Perhaps therein lies a
suggestion of completion or closure.</FONT></DIV>
