Phenomenologist..... No.... not that.... anything but a phenomenologist... seriously.
Archytas, can you give me some links or references to.... "High energy rock impacts seem to create organics that we assume via blanks become life.".... any articles or writings, etc.? it would interest me. How "accepted" is it as a theory?.... Anyway... I think I've show you (Archytas) my Epistemological break-down before but if not.....and maybe Socratus will see better where I am coming from. Idealism........................Realism Conceptus / Res...........Conceptus / Res subjective / subjective....objective /objective (Aristotle's "square of logical opposition" in middle) Nominalism...................Phenomenoloy Conceptus / Res...........Conceptus / Res subjective /objective.......objective / subjective anyway... a "phenomenologist" is the diametrical opposite to my own "nominalist" position.... the "bane" to my "existence"....(as you probably already know).
