The SOCRATIC APPROACH is most successful when confronting
the ignorant. The "socratic approach" is what you call starting an argument
by asking questions. You approach the innocent and simpy ask "Did you
know that God’s name is Eris and that He is a girl?" If he should answer
"Yes." Then he is probably a fellow Erisian and so you can forget it. If he
says "No." then quickly proceed to:
THE BLIND ASSERTION and say "Well, He is a girl and His name
is ERIS!" Shrewdly observe if the subject is convinced. If he is, swear him
into the Legion of Dynamic Discord before he changes his mind. If he does
not appear to be convinced, then proceed to:
THE FAITH BIT: "But you must have Faith! All is lost without Faith!
I sure feel sorry for you if you don’t have Faith." And then add:
THE ARGUMENT BY FEAR and in an ominous voice ask "Do you
know what happens to those who deny Goddess?" If he hesitates, don’t tell
him that he will surely be reincarnated as a precious Mao Button and
distributed to the poor in the Region of Thud (which would be a mean thing
to say), just shake your head sadly and, while wiping a tear from your eye,
go to:
THE FIRST CLAUSE PLOY wherein you point to all of the discord
and confusion in the world and exclaim "Well who the hell do you think did
all of this, wise guy?" If he says, "Nobody, just impersonal forces." Then
quickly respond with:
THE ARGUMENT BY SEMANTICAL GYMNASTICS and say that
he is absolutely right, and that those impersonal forces are female and that
Her name is ERIS. If he, wonder of wonders, still remains obstinate, then
finally resort to:
THE FIGURATIVE SYMBOLISM DODGE and confide that
sophisticated people like himself recognize that Eris is a Figurative Symbol
for an Ineffable Metaphysical Reality and that The Erisian Movement is
really more like a poem than like a science and that he is liable to be turned
into a Precious Mao Button and Distributed to The Poor in The Region of
Thud if he does not get hip. Then put him on your mailing list.
