If you bother to read what he writes, that's his primary purpose. Apparently he chooses not to engage with me, which is his choice. The last thing Sacateca wants, however, is to be ignored. In that, he is rather successful, but moreso on his "home" forum.

Do you even consider change in you, or is it only him you see as needing to change?I don't expect Sacateca to change anything...why should he? The purpose of my post at him was to see if he wanted to engage in some combat. He declined. Instead, it appears, you decided to engage.
In regard change, nobody changes. The best anyone can do is manage to reveal himself to himself, what don Juan called achieving the totality of self. That total uncovering of self does not change self...it is enlightenment in its true form.
Your posts are utter nonsense Gonzo. You say his posts are meaningless entertainment, however, you may not see it yet, but your interpretation ^ is filled with the meaning it has for you...the meaning you have given it. Yet you don't know what he intended, felt, or wanted. Your assumption that he wanted combat is a reflection of what is inside you. His unwillingness to engage in combat with you is a pretty clear indicator that combat was not something he wanted...seems you were wrong.
What the f do you mean revealing himself to himself...DJ said cut the chains of self reflection...go back and do your homework. Enlightenment is the transcendence of self, the overcoming of the need to obsess on the self.
