The spiritualists that I know are rather arrogant. They think that their intuition is a fount of knowledge. That they can tap into universal knowledge. Funny how they cannot win lotteries any more than the rest of the population!

I think he referred to this email correspondance , <a href="http://www.samharris.org/blog/item/the-limits-of-discourse" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://www.samharris.org/blog/item/the-limits-of-discourse</a> , in which Harris has his ass handed to him by Chomsky. You can agree or disagree with the political stance of Chomsky, but in this case it is clear the orders of magnitude in skill between the two writers, with Harris being the clear loser. " I agree with you completely that we cannot have a rational discussion of these matters, and that it is too tedious to pretend otherwise. And I agree that I am litigating all points (all real, as far as we have so far determined) in a “plodding and accusatory way.” That is, of course, a necessity in responding to quite serious published accusations that are all demonstrably false, and as I have reviewed, false in a most interesting way: namely, you issue lectures condemning others for ignoring “basic questions” that they have discussed for years, in my case decades, whereas you have refused to address them and apparently do not even allow yourself to understand them. That’s impressive."
