yes I concede, but your suggestions that I ground my framework in regards
the episteme is a substantial task- I’m nothing If not lazy and a poor
scholar, I should do what Heidegger does at the beggining of BT in regards
groundings his rhetoric amongst a reappraisal of originary texts. Yes, the
traditons of truth that make up always already metaphysics in every thing we
’say’ is a fact of life- but respectfully refer you to my qualification of
‘erasure’; of course metaphysics is always about the invisible assumptions
me make about truth, Being and the world. But I still want to throw
christians to lions, (we have great colloseum style AFL arenas in Oz).
