Hi Denis:
A tour de force! A great, great, great, great, great (English adjectives)
post. I especially liked (and agree with) your analysis of SOM as having
Truth as its Godhead and that all philosophies besides the MOQ are
SOMs.
One slight nitpick in an otherwise beautifully patterned exposition. You

Later you wrote:

Do you see what I see? A contradiction. But as said, minor.
The only other gltich you might find in your essay is that Platt thinks it's
wonderful, so it must--by reason of his accolade alone--be seriously
flawed.
Sorry about that. (-:
