ABSTRACT
Let me begin by thanking my esteemed colleagues who have taken the time to interact with my chapter and have provided substantive commentary on it. I also wish to thank them for their intriguing and engaging proposals that are laid out in their respective chapters. It is genuinely a privilege and an honor to be included in this project with them, each of whom I take to be a much greater light than me! Though what I’ve just written is true, it is still the case that I think that my position is the correct one, even if they have pointed out some of the bullets (for better or worse) that I must bite. Here then are some very brief responses to Drs. Gordon, Farris, Hasker, and Leidenhag.
