One of the most boring books I've read. Most of it's value lies outside the book. Primarily, I have a clearer conception of metaphysics and what other philosophers mean when they do their metaphysics. But also I can understand the logic Aquinas and others use to prove God and why they still remain unconvincing.

OP just read it to get the gist and his main arguments but there's no need to mentally toil over his ideas and cumbersome writing.

Patrician analytic metametaphysics. That being said:
>McDaniel's ontological pluralism
>Schaffer's permissivism
>Hirsch's quantifier variance
>Chalmers' neo-Carnapianism
You don't really believe these right, anon?
