    We can't help but tell a clearly plausible story about the evolution of
    being. (But not the "ontological evolution", only the SOM, historical
    evolution). Not sure where you get the idea that either idealism or the MoQ
    is implausible "crap", or why you are so adamant of distinguishing Idealism
    from MoQ.
