Don't you mean: "I just wanna see thEsE/those awards you have" ? Instead of "I just wanna see this awards you have" ?
Anyway, I never said I have an AWARD, but that I got published and positively criticised.
What do you mean by exact link? I gave you the link to my personal web site which have exact links. 😕

That I believe you are talking about the skill of deceiving.. yea you are right, if one is good at deceiving, one will be seen smart by folks who are still not familiar with deceiving, or to be deceived... but it is still under the boundaries of familiarity 🙁

peter - you talk about "familiarity", but what does familiarity really mean? To what degree does one have to be familiar with something in order to have real insight? Can one really be familiar with anything, when existence is an infinity?
There, I have explain what familiarity is..

EVERYTHING is all about possibilities!!! Getting familiar, is to get familiar with the possibilities!!! To think, is to find possibilities, and to find possibilities, there is only 2 ways, knowledge, or by imagination...To be creative, one has to inherit it from gene and basic interest, and still in the boundary of possibility. "The only way to be entirely good in possibilities, is by familiarity..." <-- important point..
Creatively at the extreme level is still learning.. it is under the hierarchy of thinking.. generating possibilities... I agree with you, that a person is wise, to generate possibility, the work of originality. Generate possibility--> present, Familiarity--> past. Both are connected in the search for the truth...
"The truth can be defined by different levels of familiarity".. basicly playing chess, ect is all about familiarity, and generating possibilities, as they play... Only nature has the real insight... none else has it.. because we are still stuck with the process of learning... It is not possible to be familiar with everything... our life is short, but I, myself am experimenting on this... on age 14 I gained interest in philosophy and psychology... I am trying to understand how other people, of other characteristics feel like... I'm immitating them, and see how environment acts upon it, as to understand it...
But still, every entity in existence is infinite it form and complexity - how can one really become familiar with something that is infinite - it poses an impossibility. For instance an atom which is composed of an infinity of subatomic particles - you can never become familiar with this entity - your knowledge will be shrinking infinitely. One can only really and completely know something when you have exhausted all knowledge of its properties, but by virtue of its infinity, that's impossible. That is why real knowledge of 'the-thing-in-itself' as Kant put it, is impossible.
Ok, I understand. But even a hierarchy is infinite if you link it up with the infinity of reality - so you'll always end up knowing only as far as you go down the hierarchy or list of possibilities, which is infinite. As all is infinite, you cannot wrap it up into a limited hierarchy or list of possibilities - there aren't only so much possibilities - it's endless.
But I'll wait 'till you have more time to elaborate your theory and then talk again.
