gracias

Thanks and a hug to reader and commenter Hahna, who sent me Nicholas Rescher's The Strife of Systems as a gift. Rescher's work underlies, among other things, S. Mark Heim's arguments in Salvations: Truth and Difference in Religion, a blistering 1995 critique of convergent pluralism. Rescher was recently quoted by Dr. Vallicella as well. While he's not the most well-known of philosophers, Rescher's work is often cited in discussions of pluralism in its many forms-- religious, explanatory, etc. I plan on tackling this book with vigor.

Thanks again, Hahna!
