The difficulty with Spinoza is that he coins most of his syllogisms
from the fact he gives very specific meaning to the terms he uses
(e.g. God, which is the "causa sui", or the one thing that needs
nothing else than its "essence" to exist).

Well, so the conclusion is  * either the terms are "of course" those
whith the associated meanings, --- and then all the book is a big (not
even necessarily convincing) tautology

* or the terms don't come so handy, and you take for granted God (for
instance) can refer to a great number of different things, but then
--- how to explain it is SOME PARTICULAR meaning that is intended in
Spinoza's works ?

Perhaps saying "lo cevni la spinozas" would suffice ??
