Complete lack of rigor

On: The Regulon

"The correct method in philosophy would really be the following: to say nothing except what can be said, i.e., propiositions of natural science -- i.e., something that has nothing to do with philosophy -- and then, whenever someone else wanted to say something metaphysical, to demonstrate to him that he had failed to give a meaning to certain signs in his propositions." (6.53)

Jon Katz here diverges from this method.

What can be said at all can be said clearly.
