When asked to provide rational foundations for your positions you retreat into nominalism and reductionist assumptions. The only one who is dodging is you trying not to face your tacit nihilism.
Sayeth the guy who hides behind Medieval realism to mask the bankruptcy of his own moral position, i.e., the "fact" that his religion's moral code is based on nothing more than what the alleged creator decrees is moral in this or that situation (smashing the heads of infants of the 'wrong' tribe ok if Yahweh says so) and is one 'revelation' away from further revision. Your tacit irrationality is showing, Professor Adler. No amount of mere assertion will allow you to escape the legacy of your so-called holy book, and Aquinas can't save you from your slavishness.
