I guess Krygowski can't answer those questions.

No, you ran away from my question *before* he said anything like that.

I did not learn about Stoicism in a classroom. But then, I seem to have
more curiosity and general desire to learn than you do.

yet you never learned how to sail a boat, scuba dive, publish a book,
raise a horse and/or a steer, build a barn, field dress, skin and
butcher a deer and/or a squirrel, own, register, and manage a
business, process and print photography film, make things out or deer
hide and/or leather, etc.

Figure it out on your own - if you can.

I find myself more interested in, and learning about what motivates
individuals, including myself, to believe and do what they do instead
of analyzing the group thinking that creates cultures. What I study
would lead me to identify an individual as being stoic, rather than
belonging to a group thinking cult referred to as Stoicism.

My knowledge about the motivation and resulting behavior of people is
how I so quickly and accurately figured you out.

You imply that a person is ignorant because they never encountered the
term "Stoicism," and still you can't answer the question.

Where would someone with a real life come across the term stoicism?
How would knowing that term be of value to someone?
