'Not seen, not known' - Dr Cyril Gripper
|
| |
This famous remark of Dr. Cyril Gripper has stood the test of time, and in my view, remains indefensible. Problems of perception in the post-Cartesian world are often blamed for a lack of insight into the nature of being to some extent on Professor Harland's magnum opus, 'Waht is 'What'?' and the later work on mechanistic dualism, 'Who... more »

Passing through every quantity
|
| |
When there is a continuous change there is a passage through every quantity. This applies in the calculus of physics. There can pass through different sizes of infinity of the infinitely small at the same rate. This is speed through distance. The limit for speed is light speed. You can pass through the same size infinity of the infinitely small... more »
