Re: Contradiction in the Law of Identity

OK fair enough. I do not buy into your argument (still think it is bad form) - but I have a better understanding of your intent (not an intentional negative tactic).

Re: Contradiction in the Law of Identity

Not chair is something that we call a chair, and I can see emptiness. Does chair exist or appear to exist? It depends on scale. Water is wet to us, but sticky to a fly. A chair we can sit on, but an elephant can't , and at another scale a chair is home for woodworm. So Enlightenment includes being ...

Re: Emancipating Reality

It's important to not get tangled up in the web of differing definitions. In philosophy, there are no official, fixed, and final definitions for words.
