[QUOTE="Neonchameleon, post: 9576738, member: 87792"] So do I which is why I am going to be more explicit. When you insert the word "completely" into there you are as far as I can tell making a strawman' argument. And I pointed this out in my reply to you. I just didn't use the explicit word strawman. And even if you aren't making a direct strawman based on your misunderstanding of other peoples' positions it appears that what you are banging on about is a position that (a) no one currently replying to you hold and (B) is a common misrepresentation of positions people present do hold. And you seem to be making no attempt to separate the two. And the reason it feels like you are trying to derail the thread with a strawman' is that [URL='https://www.dndbeyond.com/classes/wizard']you were at one point claiming there were only three possibilities[/URL]. I pointed out explicitly that there was a fourth (which happens to be what I consider to be the correct one about this world) - and everything you have said since (especially insisting on the word "complete") appears to be an attempt to define this fourth possibility out of the discussion. Light is a particle. Light is a wave. Anyone who says that light is exclusively a particle or exclusively a wave is one of the just over eight billion living people on this planetwho is wrong about something. Why is "there exist people who are wrong about something?" a remotely interesting thing to discuss? (I consider metamodernism worth discussing because I think it the best model of reality we have and because too many people haven't heard of it) [Citation needed] It honestly sounds like a mangling of both Mage: the Ascension and Planescape where perspective makes reality. Which doesn't"t mean "all beliefs are correct" but "with enough power we can make our belief the objectively correct one" [/QUOTE]
