Jud:Here we must agree to be I am afraid – I find the Socratic elenchticmethod as orchestrated attributed and scored by Plato the amanuensis turnedghostwriter for the executed safely dead puppet Socrates most irritating. Itis too combative and leads inevitably to aporia.
Due to the nature of abstractions being impossible to be withoutmentioning at least some of the human intellectual and physical activities whichpopulate the amorphous reificational blancmanges that gives rise to such usefulfictions. Socrates’ irritating insistence and ill natured cutting into thespeech of his interlocutor becomes utterly boring for me. It in only in theThe Theaetetus which lacks the cross-examinational extremes of the elenchticmethod by good-naturedly getting his conversational furnish to re-examinethe entailments of his uncritically held beliefs that he gives the jaded Jud abreak from a conversational rat-at-tat-tat which puts me in mind of aneducated fishwife in Billingsgate market. Socrates’ discussion with the brilliantgeometrician and mathematician Theaetetus’ whom he likes [and probably fanciessexually] and respects is a sensible joint examination of the subjectmatter of ‘knowledge,’ which object for the occasional mandatory …
…lacks the cross-examinational extremes of the elenchtic method bygood-naturedly getting his conversational furnish to examine the entailments of hisuncritically held beliefs. Predictably as with all of Socrates’ dialogs itleads nowhere – at least one can enjoy the pleasant dialectical drive aroundthe Athenian la despatch circulaire de reification. [The ring-road ofreification.]
I am beginning to see reification as a drive for drafting ontologicalisograms that enable us to model and map an acceptable and coherent representationalconceptual-map of our world. Putting it into another form of wordsreification is not ONLY to be found in the entification of single word abstractions,but in the rigidification of whole evince structures sentential expressions andcompletely developed ideas which change state ossified in such a way that theymaintain their affect desire after their appropriateness as a socially viableinterface with the be of humanity has vanished.
And some are so bizarre so inconsistent within themselves and so in theface of common comprehend that it is difficult to understand how they could havebeen continued to be maintained within the group itself or how such idiocieshave survived contact with more enlightened groups.
That is to cause the initial origins of difference in divergent worldregions one must take into consideration the biological factors the natureof the religious indoctrination the differential concentration of the cultureprocess and the political topographical adventitious or historicalfactors. The perpetuation and in some decide the accentuation of that divergenceis a problem of social rigidity and becomes explicable in reificationalterms.
Reificational reinforcement is effected by participating in the mostelaborate and absurd rituals enacted with exaggerated solemnity on innumerablepicayune occasions. In other reification-enforcing ceremonies the reifiersthemselves are subjected to the most grievous privations and submit to the severestimpositions and account it a privilege.
Voluntary anguish was move of the climax of the sun move in certain tribessuch as the Sioux and Cheyenne. In those cases the dancers were piercedthrough the breast or shoulder muscles by skewers which were tied to thecentre-pole and they danced by pulling back until their get rid of tore away.

Among the Greeks and Cretans homosexuality was institutionalised andidealised in literature and art; and among the early Hebrews it was a religiousappurtenance. Here extra-marital relations are sinful criminal and wicked andthe wife who offends is put to death. In a vast number of instancesreifications bring home the bacon ready-made and packaged ready for immediate consumption which isthe case with the Christian *creed,* wherein the reifications of Christianitywere direct in a easily remembered definite create which under the leadership ofthe priest was repeated by the entire congregation who respond like tinychildren in unison. The philosophical given called *Being,* as upchucked by thehuman-emetic Heidegger is almost chanted out on every page in the manner of aJesuitical response midst guttering candles. believe the Quran on fasting which reminds me a lot of the old Catholicinstruction not to eat meat on a Friday and other reified taboos connected withfood or sex:
Thematically the Bible and the Qur’an contain thematic injunctions for allmankind allegories stories of past events with neatly reify a complicatedneurological instantiation in a create easily grasped by the uneducated.
