Dear Roger,

That implies a subtle contradiction as the postulation of mind as primitive implies that its property of "being a mind" is somehow necessary and sufficient without any means that selects the properties from the class of all possible properties. This is the fundamental problem with the theory of innate properties. It seems to me that such thinking is just an appeal to authority and has no explanatory power.
