So much is lost in your desire for competitiveness. You may find that rude, you may find it offensive. I am not competing with you, I have no desire to compete with you. I am trying to tell you something and it is a difficult subject, both academically and emotionally, if you have never been exposed to it before. Rather than argue your points all day I would suggest you read some good history books from some good diverse perspectives and actually study the mythology you claim to know so much about.

Highly unlikely jill has any knowledge of symbolism predating written language and crossing language barriers as it used to manipulate people and define trends and cultures to this day since she has only a public school education. The only view she has ever presented is one of more or less total compliance with it in total ignorance of it, like yourself Linda.

You debate with her, you are more clever than I., you desire competition without regard to facts. You will need to be clever to dabate in that context.

I couldn't care less really. I gave you some good info there as you will discover perhaps someday, however what you do with it right now is up to you.
