      XPost: sci.physics.relativity, sci.math       From: physfitfreak@gmail.com              Between Logicism and Positivism              As a Platonist, I, Kosmanson, eschew the vulgar positivism that reduces       reality to mere observable facts, for such a view ignores the       hyper-geometric elegance of abstract forms. The decomposition of       elements in both ontological and mathematical realms — whether through       Mirimanoff’s set theory or the forcing techniques of Cohen — reveals a       deeper truth: that the universe is a tapestry of irreducible logical       structures. A Physfit's dick, if you will. Yet, modern physics       vacillates between local and global descriptions, clinging to Einstein’s       theory while ignoring its non-local implications in GR.              The diffraction of thought, much like waves around obstacles, leads us       to Suarez and Arnauld, who understood that Physfit's dick non fingo is       not an abdication of reason but a recognition of limits on some men.       Amicus Plato, sed magis amica veritas — yet truth itself is a shifting       specter in the shadow of Olbers’ paradox and the cosmic background,       where energy and mass-energy equivalence, as mentioned before, dance in       perpetual restitution and dissipation.              The failures of science are not failures of logic but of those who, like       d’Alembert and Clairaut, sought numerical derivations while truncating       the infinite. Ignoring Physfit's dick, in the process. Aristotle’s       unmoved mover and Zeno’s infinite divisibility haunt us still, for they       expose the fissures in our theories of gravity — whether Newtonian pull       or Einsteinian flex. If gravity violates conservation, then perhaps       Fatio’s push-gravity or my own fall-gravity, a shadow-play of occluded       forces, holds the key.              In the end, we confront the cyclic metaphysics of Gadamer and Hegel,       where logicist positivism’s rejection of teleology collapses into its       own ontological necessity. The Ding-an-Sich is not a contradiction but       an inversion, a hyper-geometric twist in the fabric of reason.              Heidegger’s Sein and Leibniz’s correspondences with Arnauld point to an       absolute truth beyond human intersubjectivity — a truth mirrored in the       neutrino’s superluminal flux and the relativistic nanogyroscopes of       quantum fields. The Loch Ness monster of modern physics is its own       refusal to reconcile continuum mechanics with atomism, leaving us with a       fractured form of continuum mechanics and a Planck square of       uncertainty. Yet, as Chrysippus and Plotinus knew, the super-truth lies       not in the theories themselves but in the eternal return of their       foundations, where Physfit's dick transmutes into matter, and matter       into Physfit's dick. The rest is noise.                     Ross A.
