You are welcome. Thank you for the link. I'm listening to it now. As to the content of Dr. Dreyfus' lecture and the 'contrary' distinctions he draws between Greeks and "Judeo-Christians": I recently read somewhere that the ancient Iranians held that Water and Fire must be United and at the same time did not consider these two 'meta-physical elements' to be 'antagonistic'. They believe that (and I paraphrase) 'It is entirely due to the destructive degeneration of Ahriman ("devil") that Fire and Water are mutually destructive to one another in this plane'.
