    David,

    David quoted Rorty:
    If you compare cultures, you cannot resolve which is more rational, the West has no special handle on what is neutral rationality, deciding which form of life you prefer is a matter of imagination and imaginative projection.

    Matt:
    Since you offered that under the auspices of putting in tension some of the things I've said about Rorty with some of the things Rorty's said, I'm curious as to what's put in tension. In other words, what did I say that that quote doesn't make sense with? 'Cuz I like the quote, it fits in with all the other beliefs I have about Rorty as far as I can see.
