This is a dialogue my friend. I don't know what prior knowledge you're bringing to the table so I don't know ahead of time how to explain myself. By interacting and asking questions and me answering (and vice-versa) we can hopefully come closer to understanding one another. I'm not trying to dismiss your questions. I probably just need more from you in order to know how to answer them.

EDIT: And that's not to say I'm necessarily "right" about any of what I'm talking about. It's just an idea, and sometimes ideas can be a little complex and nuanced, which can make them even more difficult to explain.
