Integral ArgumentationÂÂ
Step 0: Welcome to today’s Integral Debate! Let’s get started …
Step 1: You specialize only in a particular field of knowledge, while I specialize in an inter-field system, connecting all, indeed connecting and including the entire universe of knowledge, all the way up and down
Step 2: I include more than you and thus must speak at a higher level than you, your field of knowledge is included within mine as simply one aspect
Step 3: Because I address an inter-field system, a universal system, my vocabulary is naturally more expansive and extensive than yours, the meaning of my words eludes you and your words are not up to competition in my playing field. Each word and phrase of mine is massively more significant than reams of words from you.
Step 4: My system includes Spirit, yours does not; If I come to any accurate conclusion, I must know something about Spirit; You might then even say I am somewhat realized spiritually
Step 5: Since I am then realized, the systems I come up with are blessed in a way yours are not, so again you cannot hope to hold your own
Step 6: Since your field is small, partial, limited, lower, not-blessed, not coming from realization and speaks in a limited and ridiculously narrow vocabulary in any case, it’s simply a waste of time to even pretend to debate with you
Step 7: Since you cannot understand any of this because of your embeddedness in this small view, you cannot even understand that you have already lost the debate
Step 8: So, I will take your existence as acknowledgment of the situation, and thank you for tacitly admitting your incompetence
Step 9: Rest assured, however, that you will surely be included in the master integral view, and have a cozy spot provided there from where you may unknowingly contribute to the greater integral vision, which unfortunately, you cannot understand
Step 10: Eventually the surging waves of integral fever we stimulate will wash you clean in some way you will not comprehend and then we will be happy to welcome you into the integral temple
Step 11: Until then, have a nice, integral day, and thank you for participating!
