DMB,

DMB said elsewhere:
Yea, roughly speaking, the difference between tradition and intellect is the 
difference between the 3rd and 4th levels of the MOQ. But I don't see how 
that distinction fails, or how it leads to scientific realism, or why it has 
to get torn down along with SOM. Take me through it, will you?

DMB said in this thread:
I wonder if you could educate me here. There has been quite a lot said 
against the notion of "Absolute Truth", but I only have a vague notion of 
what that means. Could you give an example? Could you quote somebody who 
actually asserts such a thing? I've always been baffled by this.

Matt:
I put these together because I wanted to let you know that I'm not going to 
do either tasks.  They are both fair enough questions (though I think the 
second one a little facetious), but they are large affairs that deserve a 
lot of attention and I simply don't have the time to pull together the 
things I've been talking about (since these two things are preoccupations of 
mine and most of what I say can be seen to gear towards either of these) to 
write a concentrated version.  Sorry.

Matt
