Abstract
The author clarifies some of his previous comments on Ken Gergen's (2009) Relational Being and continues to argue against the possibility of ontological neutrality. The author also clarifies and reaffirms the importance of an ontological commitment to the lived relation, and not to any of its abstract representations.
