Lets examine this a little further:
The Gospel Of John: In The Beginning Was The Word "Is"
-clip-
[UO = Unity of Opposites.]
^^^^^^
CB: The sentence "John is a man" means John is both the same and different
from Joe, Jack, Rosa, Charles... It is precisely the "is" of predication
that is a unity and struggle of opposites. The "is" of identity _ "He is
John. " - that is not a tautology, not a unity and struggle of opposites,
but a unity of the sames.
Before I had even heard of dialectics - living in the a mental world of
strict formal logic - I started to "run into" lots of contradictions and
paradoxes . My own road to dialectics was a posteriori, not a priori.
