Thanks, LoR. Wow, I guess you really can teach an old dog new tricks.
Liebniz's philosophy is rooted in the idea that there is an indivisible quality in the universe, which he calls a monad. This entity is supposed to be inherent in everything, which is sort of a neo-pantheistic idea couched in philosophical terms.
getojack said:If the I Ching is believed to be ''all that is'', then it could indeed be interpreted as having the qualities of a monad, as Chris believes.
So people use their brain to derive meaning through metaphors. The I Ching is a metaphor and the monad is a metaphor. Chris Lofting's brain uses the metaphor of XOR to describe itself. Liebniz's brain used the metaphor of the monad to describe itself. So what?
Lost yet?
;-)
Chris.
You talkin' to me?
Not so much lost as bored. To be honest, I don't give a flying fig about XOR, monads, IC+, etc. And I don't see why I should care.
BTW, that's nothing against you. I never saw the point in learning calculus either.
