Philosophy

Study of the nature of Nature.

See Philosophy for the basis of my metaphysics. See also my essay Axioms of the conscious self

Basically my ontology is based on two levels, depending on certainty (not sure if these are the best names):

  1. Observer perspective. The most certain parts of Knowledge are those pertaining to what you experience.
  2. God-like perspective. The next level in certainty is about things we infer from what we experience. This is where most of Knowledge resides. This deduction uses tools like Epistemology, Logic, Science, etc. to infer our Knowledge of Reality, or Physical World.

The physical world is based purely on primary substances (concrete things of the physical world. Other things are just emergent properties of it, including us and our thoughts. Those thoughts is where abstract Concepts, Knowledge

I think a good way to approach metaphysics is via Systems theory, and Science
