The combination of misunderstanding and disrespecting a point-of-view
is always comical to me. Erin both misunderstands and disrespects
Ant's comments, so, rather than requesting clarification, he/she
attacks, ad hominem:
You must be a real hoot at a poetry reading. Everytimethere
ispoetic use of a metaphor I can see you shouting out "Lies Lies
all lies" you did not qualify your statement of "love is a rose"
with "but only in the sense of a beinga non-scientifically known
substance". Science can have something to say to say
aboutthatmetaphor but the person would look like an idiot and
bemissing the point of the poem.
msh:
Here's the unasked for clarification: Catholics who believe in
transubstantion are NOT being metaphorical, or even poetic.
Here's what Witt had to say:
"If you don't know what the fuck you're talking about, stop talking
and ask, then listen..." - Ludwig Wittgenstein, Tractatus Logico-
Philosophicus
Best,
