The title of this thread is quite a mouthful. I don't doubt that serious pursuits of complex subjects such as this are very necessary. Some gifted people are obviously suited to these studies. On the other hand...I get the feeling that many subjects are purposely made more complex than necessary for purposes of power, control, and elite status...where the common folk are not allowed to understand the mysteries which the elite and annointed ones enjoy. I love big words...and often use them. I was a fan of William F. Buckley, Jr....who used a lot of big words...which annoyed many people!
