This runs long, and is hard work. But IMHO it is totally worth the time and energy expended! I welcome your thoughts...if you have the interest and the motivation.

I'm kinda still working on the names here (Menas Kefatos, Mihai Drãgãnescu, Attila Grandpierre) but sure, why not?

The names of baseball players, Hollywood actors, talent show singers, reality tv performers, and American politicians are easier, though....

Unspun, thanks for the ping.
Bettyboop, yet another great post!

I just came back from a much needed vacation and… well, wondering if I should roll up my sleeves and dive in again. --- Well, why not…

It seems to me that five senses without consciousness of some sort is meaningless. C.S. Lewis I believe captured this in his story of trying to explain lights’ existence to a culture of the blind. How would one explain logic or anything for that matter to those who refuse to see?

We know light does exist and we know logic does exist; can the two exist separately? If one states that all that exists is energy, is all that exists equal to MC 2 – – LOL!

Light and logic… Many have postulated that mathematics existed before its’ discovery. Obviously light did but what about logic? If logic is not a universal given but something invented by mankind than logic is an illusion much like the way a blind society would ‘see’ light as described by one who sees light. But can logic exist outside of time, space, and matter? Can light?

Mathematical formulas can exist beyond our existence as light and I would ‘think’ logic can and does. If one were to ponder this, which one of the five senses would they use? How do we describe light as a given or logic as a given to the blind to either? The blind can be blind to the existence of light and logic. It does not negate the existence of either.
