I'm not sure what your point is supposed to be. I'm familiar with Aristotle's metaphysics, and I've read Kronman's big book on pantheism. If Kronman is right about Aristotle, then Baron and the Catholics are wrong in construing that kind of philosophy as entailing theism. I also argue for pantheism since that's quite consistent with atheism (in opposition to exoteric religions).
There's one other question, though, which is how seriously we should take any "coherent metaphysics." Is that kind of philosophy just storytelling, a kind of updated mythmaking or is it more akin to scientific modeling? Just because it's coherent and it makes sense to us, does that mean the universe has to comply with it? I think not. Contrary to rationalist presumptions, we should be humble about our tall tales.
