That's OK. I must be too sensitive on these subjects.
I do not want the debate to turn passionate either.
I was just asking what you intended to mean by:

] 2. Is reasonable or rational thinking exclusive for
] ONLY those, who live in a 'numbers' obsession?
] or is it an elitist heaughtiness to look down to all,
] who do not share such obsession? How about vice versa?

] 3. Suppose the 'numbers based' worldview gains
] universal approval (by ~3006?) - what will that help
] in the betterment of the world? or even in the
] betterment of human thinking? Or even of more civil
] general life- conditions?

What you said just above is a sufficient answer for me.
