[Marsha to Ham] WHAT!!! Ridiculous!!!!! I'd stay away from toads for a few days. - I won't say anything else, I do not want to influence Gav's comments.
[Arlo] Don't fret, Marsha. Ham has painted The One True Painting. Where we see metaphors, signposts, "fingers pointing at the moon", Ham sees the One True Way, conveniently his Essence. "Of course it’s an analogy. Everything is an analogy. But the dialecticians don’t know that." (ZMM) "So your definition is made up of what you know. It’s an analogue to what you already know. It has to be. It can’t be anything else." (ZMM) "The One can only be described allegorically, through the use of analogy, of figures of imagination and speech." (ZMM) Or you can side with Ham, who has literally and for all time described the One True Philosophy. I'll keep seeing both the MOQ and Essentialism as they are, analogies, like polar versus rectangular coordinates, and judge them not on which is The Literal Way, but which is better to guide me through the night. (Hint, get your motor runnin'...)
