I had an odd little thought while reading some damned blog where some Christian apologists were mixing rank theology and Christian apologisms with philosophy and metaphysics. We are all familiar with the idea of "the God Of The Gaps", where any little gap in knowledge is a place to smuggle in God as an explanation. But I realized we can see the same sort of thing in metaphysics. If something in metaphysics is not provable, than any bad metaphysics with an agenda is stuffed into that gap. One can divorce any metaphysical idea from reality by this trick.
This is why i hate metaphysics.
