WTF does that even mean? I also can't help but notice you (predictably) dodged the (very accurate) accusation about you being a blatant hypocrite on this subject. Just like with science, your appreciation for art only extends to the point that it agrees with what you believe. I don't have to agree with an artist to think they made a work that's rich, powerful, profound, poignant, etc. The famous "moment/event" in Ordet still gives me chills even though I think that metaphysically it's completely absurd; but part of the power of art is to make us feel the power of absurd ideas merely because their appeal is inherent in the human condition, and art is able to represent that condition. However, people like you just see all opposing points of view as a threat, and therefore can't allow themselves to be moved by those who feel differently. Sad for you, I guess, but it certainly puts a damper on your claim to having any real understanding of art. Really? You can't guess? Pardon me if you find the repetition annoying, but "knock me over with a feather." No, I can't guess what "disorganized" means when it comes to having a broad appreciation for the arts. Ingmar Bergman is widely recognized as one of the greatest filmmakers of all time and you won't watch him because you actively disagree with him? And you claim to appreciate art? What a putz.
