A reader, commenting on the stabbed metaphysician.

Yes, but was he really stabbed or is he simply suffering from “false consciousness”?

[Me] There’s a pertinent limerick I can’t quite recall. Anyway, I’m off to the first Thursday session: “Is Consciousness Local or Global?” I’m kind of hoping it’s local. I mean, I wouldn’t want to share my consciousness with a bunch of foreigners, would you? But I shall find out and report back.
