For some time I've been trying to reconcile these two "final
vocabularies", and so I propose an "ironic metaphysics". Or I would if I
could articulate it, but this is basically what has been behind most of
what I've had to say in this forum. Ironic metaphysics would be seen as
part game (an exercise in intellect, like mathematics), and part
continual self-deconstruction (questioning one's final vocabularies),
which is what I see differential mysticism as being about.
