Yes, I'm ignorant, because Heidegger isn't saying anything. He didn't teach me anything. Thus I remain ignorant, unknowing.

You can't even explain what he said, you just said, "go learn his words". That's not knowledge, that's not insight. That's just "the wordplay is great". But it's not content. It's merely form, it's sophistry, it's useless and meaningless.

I asked a very specific question originally. What does "time is the ripening of temporality" mean? That's one way to translate one of the things he says, using different words for time and ripening in German. He's playing word games because those words sound similar in German and people like you confuse it for profundity.
