    I agree. There's no need for us to become judgemental Kants.John Doe

    :grin:

    I'm probably more like how Ariston described Arcesilaus (ch. 33, book 1 of the "Outlines"):

    "And this was why Ariston described him as "Plato the head of him, Pyrrho the tail, in the midst Diodorus"; because he employed the dialectic of Diodorus, although he was actually a Platonist."

    ... Only with different folks. So:

    Brentano the head of me, Sextus Empiricus the tail, in the midst Cicero and Quintilian. Well, as far as western philosophy is concerned. With eastern philosophy, it's mostly neo-daoism.
