Grice's "In defense of a dogma" and his antidistestablishmentarianism (revisited)

J:

"There is a core dogma (--then that's the case with any religion, isn't it)".

Yes -- the bad joke was Quine's. He said: Empiricism (as if it were a religion) -- had, if not 39 articles, -- at least two dogmas. Grice surely rallied to the defense of the underdogma. And won (the day from here to eternity -- amen).
