Tuesday -the Wakefield Doctrine- ‘…we interrupt the scheduled Monday follow-up post with this RePrint” “Wait! No we don’t!”

Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers)

We interrupt this interruption with a post-toasty*

Shoutout to our participants, Nick and Mimi, Chris and Denise. >>>>> “And Cynthia Calhoun as … the Cyndi” (Age -challenged Readers? TV show (1957-1963)

Your answers are not only correct, they are relevant and contribute to the on-going discussion of the principles of the Wakefield Doctrine. to wit:

What is the greatest weakness of each of the predominant worldviews?

The thing about this particular question is that, at certain time on these pages, we described a tendency towards a triplicate-characteristic among the three predominant worldviews. To that point, our Quiz Question was lacking in…not coherency; more a matter of stature. (imo a quality Essay Question is not a mere request for information, it is a challenge to the participants to meet (it) head on. A question ‘with stature’ shows it’s true nature, is not devious and, if wrestled to the ground will submit and concede with grace.

To that end everyone did well.

My shortcoming is the cause of any confusion as to what was being asked. When the insight into the inter-relatedness of the three predominant worldviews first occurred to me, back in the day, I did not wrestle to the ground. Rather than the linear ‘three weaknesses each has’ it was more Miller Analogy(istic); ‘hope is to a clark as impulsivity is to a scott as pride is to the roger.

Damn! I wish I could reconstruct it. It not only offered a basis for novel insights, it suggested avenues for further explorations of the personal realities of the Outsider, the Predator and the Herd Member.

I almost remember it now and that I owe to the aforementioned Quizzlings. (Quizzlets? Quizzarinae?)

Thanks, guys

Will work on the reconstruction of this insight, posthaste!

 

* good thing for y’all that I’m running out of time (already!) the sliver of silliness, (the lead sentence), were it to take hold would totally work against us when the APA (or the ASPA) finally gives into the popular buzz and, “And, its hour come round at last, / Slouches towards Bethlehem the Wakefield Doctrine to be bor(ed)n…”

Well, what exactly do you want to know? Whether I am a clark or a scott or roger? If you have to ask, then you need to keep reading the Posts for two reasons: a)to get a clear enough understanding to be able to make the determination of which type I am and 2) to realize that by definition I am all three.* *which is true for you as well, all three...but mostly one
