On ''what there is''


The question looks ''philosophical'' in the sense of ''what exist?''. In the old terminology ''ontology question''.
The modern formulation (by Quine) is: ''what are the values of your variables''? In our hobby ''what are
the new available components''?  Can one person know what are available components? Obviously not
but we have ''collective knowledge''. Each contribution is welcome. Like in science. But like in science there
are individuals with special contributions. Raul with his MM contributions and his ''successor'' chakster
with his contributions about ''both kinds'': MC's and MM's. Despite his ''modest means''. I think we should
be thankful to have such individuals.

Incredible thread!

I dont even know what to think....

welcome....And indeed thanks to you for being so entertaining...


I will only suggest to you to read Cassirer and not only his school master Kant but his spirit mentor Goethe, instead of Frege or Quine.... 😊
 
It is a bit more enlightening and less boring...

By the way i am no more atheist than believer in religious faith... They ressemble much each other like ennemy  brothers...  Spiritual i am  for sure....

It is a bit more enlightening and less boring also...

My best to you....
don’t think i would assume he hasn’t “ read “…. x
I am sure he know Cassirer and even read it in german , why assuming the opposite from a reader of Quine who speak 4 languages ?

I only challenge his understanding of the opposition between religion and science...And i dont read german by the way....😁😊
