which is an unknowing,
it is the way of transparent knowing,
it is the way of unselfconsciousness.
When you learn this,
you can learn everything,
and return to everything,
and praise everything'

And if you don't understand the point Eckhart was making about 'transformed knowledge' being an 'unknowing', then it might be a good idea to actually study Eckhart seriously. And I would also point you to the sources of information that I suggested to Foolfodder. Once you've got a good grasp of the subject matter then you might actually be in a position to debate it seriously.
I wouldn't dare to rubbish the fundamental tenets of mathematics or physics because quite frankly my understanding of it is limited. But you feel that it is perfectly valid to throw around cynical, ignorant comments about things you clearly don't grasp.
