I think these curtain - I dislike to call it philosophy for I think it inferior - uhm, theorist, are so religiously consumed with this wayward judgment, that I have to treat it as a philosophical enemy, as well as ideological one. There are certain groups whom carry an animosity towards growth of the human conscience. Whether they are religious, or political, or what ever. They use fear to inhibit this growth.

But, if one is to provoke thought, one must provoke the thinker.
