Re: OOP can be simply summed up as 'passing messages to objects'

Nobody ever agrees on what OO is.
It is a social movement with the typical fuzziness of any social
movement.
Asking will start a big fight.
Further, a definition that uses itself as part of the definition
probably has problems. Saying that an "object is an object that...." is
a recursive definition. One must first define "object" first in order
to base definitions off of it.
It is a wildcard. An object is anything, so it means nothing.
