There's more to be said, but for now, thanks for stopping by, and I'll see you around, distinguished ladies and gentlemen.

A Thing Can Be Multiple Things

Thursday, 31 July 2008 1:09 A GMT-05
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.

Reality as Naming

Saturday, 21 June 2008 1:12 A GMT-05
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.

Underneath Not

Monday, 7 April 2008 5:13 P GMT-05
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".

Taking Together

Monday, 24 March 2008 4:06 A GMT-05
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.

Contradiction as Distinction

Thursday, 31 August 2006 11:30 P GMT-05
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.

A View on Existence

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?

Possibility from Impossibility

Monday, 31 July 2006 9:24 P GMT-05
We consider here the thesis that the impossibility of life is what gives life possibility.

To The Extent

Friday, 30 June 2006 12:12 P GMT-05
The alternates to what we think are restrictions on what can exist, are in fact very real and not restricted from existence at all.

Alone and Accompanied

Wednesday, 14 June 2006 11:42 P GMT-05
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.

The Strange and Beautiful

Wednesday, 31 May 2006 11:43 P GMT-05
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.
