<DIV>Resistance to diachronic being, right?</DIV>
<DIV>But don't we use our vision more than our other senses? I just noticed today that the women on campus here walk around exhibiting their pulchritude yet have expressions saying, "I am a Whole Self, not an object". Such is parading around your asset, having it, and eating it too. An immediate form of doublemindedness. </DIV>
<DIV>A guy on the street hanging his keester halfway out of his pants is a varmint but a woman who does the same thinks she's some sort of a goddess? I bring this up because it is visual & immediate.<BR><BR></DIV>
