Hi Wade,
I am just interested, you do see freedom from bias as necessary to ' free-
dom ' as such !?
That is, to be really free as an individual !?
How can that be, if you were genetically and memetically ' biased ' as a
person !?
Or does your beliefsystem don 't go that far !?
It would be interesting to know how your then solipsistic brain cope with
such a bias !?
Regards,
Kenneth
