"i attended one of the finest university's in the world, attained a first and concluded i'd never had my thinking more stifled/ it has taken me three years to recover and restore my mind to the flexible, questioning state it was when i began university/"....Couldn't have said it better myself, dropped out of a prestigious college here in the land of ignorance, only to find myself even more stifled at an-ass backwards catholic school. I thought this would allow me more time to study and do things that I wanted to do, but it has only made me more neurotic, and every day is a struggle. I figured my plan would make me less of a misanthrope, but it's had the opposite effect. If I leave with my mind intact it'll be a miracle.

i suppose the point i'm trying to make is one can get lost in a logical morass which, whilst perhaps internally consistent, bears no relation to anything one could possibly explain/ and in it's application, it can be lethal/ one thing academia and spending 10s f thousands on hi-fi has taught me is, question and grasp everything which you think or become involved in/ otherwise, forget it/ logic, like religion, is just a form of human desperation with a different mask/ as fritz the cat said (roughly) 'since i gave up thinking, i'm much less of a cunt'/ gra-see-ass, fritz/

Bingo, you've hit it exactly...Logic is a form of human desperation, and the wellspring of logic comes from holy epileptics, Delusional people who would sacfrice their children on a mountain, and anti-social, pathological personalities...Therefore, does it not follow that the most behaviorally deviant, "irrational", and those who vanish off the edge of the bell-curve are the most rational? Socrates, who only poses questions, acts as the Sphinx to the majorities Oedipus. We look at the crazy, the retarded, etc. from a logical standpoint as something pitiful and undesirable, but does this really follow? In Aristotle's notion of Eudamia (sp?), are these aformentioned people not the happiest? There is no logic, there is no irrationality. Perhaps if Logic is seen as control of oneself and one's environmental stimuli (are these seperable?), then do Hitler and Stalin seem the most logical? Yet it seems the more responsibility one has attained, the unhappier and more ugly the human spirit becomes...I love Burroughs section on "when I realized I didn't want to become president"...I'll respond via email next time if you'd prefer. Also check out Neitzsche's "Genealogy of morals" section 3 on the ascetic spirit if you have a chance
