Isn't there a concept of imprecision in absolute physical measurement and drift in cosmological constants? Are atoms and molecules all infinitesimally different in size or are they absolutely the same size? Certainly individual cells of the same type vary in all of their measurements, do they not? If so, that would seem to suggest my view - that arithmetic is an approximation of feeling, and not the other way around. Cosmos is a feeling of order, or of wanting to manifest order, but it is not primitively precise. Make sense? Biological processes then, could be conceived as a 'levelling up' of molecular arithmetic having been formally actualized, a more significant challenge is attempted on top of the completed molecular canvas - with more elasticity and unpredictibility, and a host of newer, richer feelings which expand upon the molecular range, becoming at once more tangible and concrete, more real, and more unreal and abstract. The increased potential for unreality in the subjective interiority of the cells is what creates the perspective necessary to conceive of the molecular world as objectively real by contrast. The nervous system does the same trick one level higher. Craig -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
