Resolving all reality as distinction, we must find meaning and consequence within the one principle of distinction. We observe here that the diversity of a thing being both arbitrary and fixed is in fact the essence of meaning.

In this entry we carry out an experiment in inspecting distinction.

In this entry we return to the view of life as naming. Having indicated some tools in the exploration of other views in this series, we can now employ them in characterizing naming by showing the relation of naming to these other views.

We've proposed embracing conflict--something we wish to consider with care. One doesn't accept unwanted imposition when not forced to. We here consider what care we can take, looking at our engagement in coercion.

In present wings we externalize our internally produced reality to investigate the nature of knowledge, cause-effect and the mind-body problem.

There are varying contexts for resolving diverse verdicts of truth. We do have multiple contexts, and so do seem to be able to change our truths. What is lost in those contexts when we untether their truths?

We consider choice and the distinction between the internal and external world from the views of distinction as naming and as contradiction.

With our heavy reliance on truth, how can we keep as meaningful our statements, yet see truth as merely a phenomenon? We've described assertions with naming, or taking together. Here we look at "not".

We will look here at another view of distinction, one that doesn't grapple with contradiction, by removing the primacy of truth and falsity. The fundamental element of this view is naming.

How do we make sense of the paradoxes of philosophical logic in the larger picture of philosophy as a whole? We explore here how distinction is related to the reason of philosophical logic and where contradiction relates the two.

Is accepting contradiction as actual possible. It is not obvious. It sounds wrong, by definition. How could so much history pass with so much being missed?

We consider here the thesis that the impossibility of life is what gives life possibility.

The alternates to what we think are restrictions on what can exist, are in fact very real and not restricted from existence at all.

Are we, as individuals, alone in the universe? For some, first appearances of life as distinction leave us as the only one accountable for the state of affairs. For some this theory doesn't resolve conflict, it creates it.

Why this, why now, why? Common questions when we are faced with seemingly arbitrary facts. When circumstances seem particular yet not compelled by some organizing principle, we become wary that we don't understand all at play.

Just how strong are we? How free? Can we overcome the limitations on us? We might be tempted to consider all impositions as being of our own making. This would secure for us triumph over all our conflicts, complete freedom.

Is magic real? Being defined as the supernatural, it clearly is not natural, and so no, it is not real. But with contradictions present in so many very real distinctions in our lives, we might expect the magical to be present in a very real sense.

Virtuosity. It is the real object of any introspection. We seek grace, comprehension and effect.

Life is a contradiction. And this isn't bad, this is explanatory. Understanding this allows us to overcome the biggest contradiction in each of our lives: conflict.
