Is this to say that you agree with me after all?

  No, it is to say that you do not seem to know what you are talking about, and that you do not seem to understand what you are told. It is to say that you should intensify work on building your intellectual keys, and avoid focussing on your strict interests, which could entangle into an overgrown cage of ideas. Hopefully you still have in front of you a long and proficuous time for formation. There is "curiosity" in the fascination for potential for growth, and 'curiosity' in the sense Heidegger used - of shallowness. Tackle matters when you are ready to understand them - which will also enable tackling them seriously. For most disciplines, there is lot of literature around. Some of those writers knew something: you should use them to learn.

    > No, it is to say that you do not seem to know what you are talking about, and that you do not seem to understand what you are told. It may indeed seem that way, but if I say the same to you (that "it does not seem what you know what you are talking about, and that you do not seem to understand what you are told"), does it then mean that it is the True state of reality that you do not actually? Or, might it be possible that I am wrong, confused, have misinterpreted your words (there are many points along the idea transmission chain where loss of fidelity can occur), or something else? And if it is possible that an error can happen on one end of a communication, might it be possible that it could also occur on the other? Are you one of those rare (or maybe not so much lately) people who never makes any mistake at all, however small? Many thanks for your advice (or: thanks to the degree that it actually contains value), I hope for your benefit that you follow it with perfection yourself.
