Pretending great wisdom lies in the words from language that one is betting one’s interlocutors to not be fluent in matters a lot, it matters to the tune of being the bedrock of entire epistemologies, just ask Belaqua or neo.
You know, I think you are right. I think that, if Andreas Alcor really had a point, he could have presented it a lot more clearly. I think the point he was trying to make it is "Maybe everybody whose brain wasn't working for some time had a near-death experience, but the vast majority of people just don't remember it.".
