Look at the car model (cognitive functions) for reference.

Just an afterthought from the end of Bob's post.

Good observation.  Another angle to look at things from.

A bit ago Warren tried to peg me as emotional in my perspective.  While I'm no Vulcan, I test out as INTP, the engineer - scientist archetype.  If he continues to try to read my stuff as emotion based, he'll continue to be unable to comprehend it.  I'm no Feeler.

Throwing about your distortions of my positions again, I see.  "Cultural" is not the same as "emotional", and it was you, not me, who first said you thought people's viewpoints were controlled by the cultural background.

At some point somebody flip flopped my position.  Yes, I see cultures as important.  However, again, I will use the word 'culture' in referring to many types of thought systems...  religious, political, scientific, economic, regional, racial, whatever.  Different things are important to different people.  Quite often this leads to premises of how the world works that an individual cannot question or perceive of as false.  There are also blind spots, really bogus 'factual' assumptions that must be maintained lest an individuals basic premises become unsustainable.  I find it interesting to watch conversations break down in such a way that somebody's blind spot is clearly engaged.

However you got the impression that I was emotional in my arguments, it's a misperception.  I might have misworded something.  Try to find it if you like.  However, I think of myself as INTP.
