Hoffman and arts: the mystery unraveled?

I have recently come in contact with Mr. Albert Hoffman's theories on intercultural communication and I must say I am pretty impressed by his vision. I have already come in contact with some of his scientific discoveries a few months ago after having watched some of his documentaries.

As most of you know, Mr. Hoffman became famous with the discovery of a certain psychedelic phenomenon, but he has also done so much for intercultural purposes. He set up a special kind of model with a fellow scientist/anthropologist by the name of Mr. Arts which is based on the similarities between the earlier models but with a fresh outlook on everything. Since they felt that society was over-generalizing cultures too much, he first stated that: "a meeting between an educator and a parent is not primarily a meeting between two cultures, but a meeting between two individuals." This immediately struck me as very interesting, and after reading his model, I was convinced:

1. Acknowledge equalness
2. Acknowledge difference

I dare you to make it any more simpel than that! While other psychologists focus on so many less relevant things, Hoffman and Arts go back to the basics. However, we mustn't forget that there are a few more complications that need to be taken into account; Hoffman integrated Paul Watzlawick's five axioms into his model, which basically sum up the most important qualities and characteristics of human interaction. In order to understand the next paragraphs, its adviced to read these axioms first, which can be found at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Watzlawick

The axiom that intrigued me the most was Axiom 3 (punctuation): Mr. Watzlawick states that every message can be interpreted differently according to the person that is interpreting it. I think this can be visualized with an example of Creationism vs Evolution (or alternate theories, obviously): As long as we have lived on this planet, there have been certain questions that cannot seem to be answered, such as: "how did we arrive on this planet?" Because there are so many theories based rather on interpretation than on evidence, I feel this is a decent example of Mr. Watzlawick's third axiom.

It seems that I have found my psychologist/anthroplogist/scientist of preference. I have since long admired Mr. Hoffman's scientific breakthroughs and therefore know he was a very wise man. His theory on intercultural communication seems to fill in the blanks much more than David Pinto's or Geert Hofstede's theories.
