I think eliminating any possible motive for a single human act is a bit
absurd :) Your position is that it's impossible to for anyone, at any time,
to be motivated by this one particular impulse and be led to this one
particular act. That's a pretty big claim.
I don't see buddhist monks in a frenzy when they burn themselves. I think
quite the opposite.
BUT, I appreciate your direct response to the ideas I presented. I respect
your POV too, just disagree with it.
Remember, I'm just talking about Seymour :)
