coherence(Applied uniformly by Bosanquet to both religious and non-religious truth claims.)
The standard by which truth is assessed — a belief or system of beliefs is true insofar as it forms a consistent, internally unified whole.
non-spatiality thesis(The thesis whose reconstruction is under dispute in this passage.)
The thesis, attributed to Kant and reconstructed by Allison, that things (as they are in themselves, or from a standpoint-independent perspective) are not spatial.
underdetermined(Used to contrast mathematical conjectures, whose correct answers are fixed by logical facts, with cases where no such determination exists.)
A decision or truth is underdetermined when logical facts alone do not fix a single correct answer.
