Oh thank God you didn't behead me. I was so annoyed with myself yesterday for making that question too quickly. I did think about this, but I do think that I should read up on the details and foundations for the "mapping" from the adherents' viewpoint. I'll pick up The Sacred Canopy. May I ask if it is Structure Mapping you are referring too? I have only heard it mentioned in regards to a small post about metaphors.

Right. I have a theory about this.

I would argue that we are now going off topic from this thread, but we are discussing the foundations for force transformation in regards to a changing environment. Highly relevant.

Okay, so I'm a nerd. Ranting done. Returning to regular schedule.
