You can't refute that which can't be explained.

I've seen scientists who can understand the most complicated theories of modern physics, and analytic philosophers who devise new and extremely complex systems of formal logic, and yet when they to refute post-modernist pseuds you always have a bunch of undergraduate humanities students saying they didn't understand a single thing.

If you refute Derrida, all his fans need to do is to invent a new interpretation.

Trying to refute a continental philosopher is like trying to refute a novel: it makes no sense and it can't be done. Even if you refute everything Bazarov says, you still won't have refuted Fathers and Sons, because it doesn't actually make any point, it just spills a bunch of different perspectives upon a bunch of different subjects in the form of a literary prose work so that the reader can enjoy watching fictional and enriching human interactions - which is precisely what Turgenev wanted to do.

Now continental philosophers are also specialized in spilling trash in the form of prose, except that they usually lack the literary merits of people like Turgenev. Instead, they devise an infinite amount of ill-defined terms and use them as a shield against people who may claim their work is imbecile, because they will always have the 'You didn't get it!' excuse.

Derrida isn't an obscurantist and is very rational in his essays and early works. He does as bit of word play as the old dog ages but he shouldn't be lumped in with the other so called post-modernists.

nature will arise as the new god to be worshipped.
this is a obversable transgression but a necessity.
