Hi, Fan Of Arabian Horses( What a long nickname! :P ):
I think i have expressed myself quite clearly. But i prefer "System" to "Hierarchy" , maybe the latter has many unpleasant colors. Or maybe you can tell me the differences between "System " and “ Hierarchy", will you? :wink:

Hey Fangfang,
I think hierarchy is a part of the system.
And hierarchy is a system.
Everything is a part of the system,and everything is a system.
Welcome to the MATRIX :)

Hi FangFang!

First of all, please, call me Michael. That might be shorter and is my civil name. 8) In my introduction I explained the choice of my official username. :roll:

I think, system is a logical structure while hierarchy more refers to the range in a row. Both are usually not used in human (political) regards only but also in science. For me hierarchy isn?t anything negative, it refers to the value of members in the row only and that likely makes it unpleasant since it reminds often a person their value. As most of us are low in range and we like to consider ourselves to be important we don?t like to be reminded our range. This is, at least, my opinion. Once a superior of mine proudly claimed that in our company the hierarchy still works and I myself felt unpleasant as I had been the last in the row. But to be honest, being on a low level in a hierarchy is not just a disadvantage as you don?t have much response for anything and many people more or less unconscious use this. I myself sometimes use the advantage to own a low range if the union or society, I belong to, isn?t important for me.

Hi Torsten!

Like you had mentioned some times ago, a communication is an ongoing process and sometimes there happen things you didn?t expect. Now, since I?ve been involved in the latter posts that much I was surprised to read your recommendation a pleasant and the same time informative lecture regarding that theme.

Just to explain how I came across the initial theme: The boss of the company I currently work for employed a superior some weeks ago. The superior is supposed to be the representative of the company?s big cheese. Unfortunately, now happened what you often can watch if a representative is inserted. The boss and his second man haven?t talked that precise about all challenges of the company and don?t sing from the same hymn sheet (like Alan probably would explain it pretty polite :wink: ) I mean the hymn they sing are similar but not exactly the same and that can raise some confusion. Currently, the confusion had been about me so that I didn?t know any longer how to behave.

Beside that you perhaps figured out yet that hierarchy is a theme what I often think about. And as another theme of my efforts is to improve my English skills I connected both and wrote this topic, expecting that all me friends here might be bored but won?t feel offended. :roll:

Hi Spencer!

To return to your question: what I would like to experience from the mankind?

Firstly I missunderstood you in fact. But to give the correct answer to your special question: I would like the mankind to work together and not against another. I know that it is currently a dream but I strongly consider the humans capable that. To say it in common with John Lennon: You may say I?m a dreamer, but I?m sure I?m not the only one!!!!!! 8)

Hope not to become shot! I?m not Eric Clapton?s sheriff :wink:
