		<description>I am not a defender of Derrida. If you knew this stuff like you wish you did you would see that.

You though you could make me look like I know less than you and that would be a rare treat for you. But since you don&#039;t know what you are talking about why don&#039;t you just stop flapping your ignorant gums?</description>

		<description>You don&#039;t know anything about Derrida or philosophy. I studied Derrida with Alex Argyros at UT Dallas, who in turn studied with Derrida. I was a Ph.D. candidate so I am qualified to tell  you what Derrida said. I got it right and you did not.

your ignorance is a example of how not to do criticism:

&lt;&gt;


Sorry, you are sloppy in understanding what you read. Since you obviously know nothing about the subject matter, read slow, try to think: &quot;signifier&quot; means a word. The word refers to something &quot;signified.&quot; The thing eh word signifies is a principle, that&#039;s what the words refers to an organizing principle which gives meaning to all other meanings, or marks (words). Understand now. It&#039;s not saying signifier is both a word and a principle its&#039; saying the word refers to a principle.




   &lt;&gt;

In making the argument since it is a reverse of Derrida, and I said this up front, in fact I call the argument &quot;the reverse Derrida&quot; and I said, I am limited by how Derrida argued it and how what he argued. Do you understand that? Do you need me to explain that?

moreover, I don&#039;t think you understand what arguments are. The argument produces along a row of proportions each one related to the other, and numbered 1,2,3, ect. I don&#039;t think you get how that works.



 &lt;&gt;&gt;

that&#039;s not even the argument. I don&#039;t really know what you are quoting from. My argument goes like this:


    P1) TS&#039;s function is mutually exclusive, no other principle can superceed that of the TS since it alone grounds all principles and bestows meaning through orgnaization of concepts.

    P2)We have no choice but to assume the relaity of some form of TSed since we cannot function coherently without a TS
    P3) We have no choice but to assume the reality of some form of TSed since the universe does seem to fall into line with the meaning we bestow upon it.

    P4) The logical conclusion would be that There must be a TSed which actually creates and organizes the Universe.

    P5) The sifnifier &quot;God&quot; is one version of the TS, that is to say, God functions in the divine ecnomy exacly as the TS functions in a metaphysical hierarchy.

    P6) Since &quot;God&quot; is a version of the TS, and since TS and God concept share a unique function which should be mutually exclusive, the logical conculusion is that: God and TS share identity.ie &quot;God&quot; concept is descrition of the Transcendental Signified.

    P7)Since the TS should be assumed as real, and TS and God share identity, we should assume that God is the Transcendental Singified, and thus is an actual reality.

    rational warrent for belief in God&#039;s existence, QED.

&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.doxa.ws/Ontological/ReityTS.html#TS&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;




   &lt;&gt;

but you got to start somewhere don&#039;t you? You are making the mistake and the dishonesty of pretending (because you can&#039;t really be that stupid) that that page on the blog was the argument! Talk about sloppy! The page on the blog that you read was the background that explains what you must know to understand the argument. is said this clearly and up front and I linked tot he argument. It&#039;s not my fault if you can&#039;t figure out what you read becuase you are too dense to comprehend. maybe next time you can pay more attention to what you are doing?



&lt;&lt;&gt;&gt;

do I? I rather thought that by saying it&#039;s the background you need to know and linking to the argument someone with some brains will get the drift that I&#039;m not trying to do that but merely to tell you what one must know to understand the argument, which apparently you aren&#039;t clever enough to find.



   &lt;&gt;

But showing how a thinkers arguments can be reversed might do that. The necessary first step to reversal is to explain what you are reversing. why do I feel like that&#039;s wasted on you?

   &lt;&gt;&gt;

something tells me you don&#039;t know enough about the world of thought to really make any difference on that anyway.

&lt;&lt;I&gt;&gt;&gt;

why would this argument have anything to do with social science. My God atheists are stupid. I am thunderstruck and dumb and dead pan idiotic atheists are and how unable they are to comprehend what&#039;s being said. you understanding of my work is pathetic, abysmal.
