spider lover, have you actually read The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind?
I can't answer for Arachnophilia, but I have read this book and must agree, it is Bullshit, not only for the reasons which were pointed out in Message 26 but for several reasons from history and literary criticism.
In fact I left it out of the bookcase once and one of my cats felt so insulted by Jaynes' insinuation that it had a non-functional corpus callosum, she took a dump on it.
But I'm way OT.
I agree and I am as well. Start a thread. You have my personal guarantee that I will contribute.
