You really have to ask?

Object, is not exactly the right word, though, It's just that they were wrong about so much, which would not matter, if their influence was not so great. (Actually, I believe Hegel was demented.)

I've not reached them yet, but if you are interested, I have some comments on Hume, who begin all the "skepticism" that led to the destruction of philosophy that was just beginning to get back on track with Locke (read Aristotle).

If you bother with these (a part of an uncompleted series of article) you will at least understand the reasoning behind much of what I've said on this thread. Hank
