SA: Is the axiom system above: whole numbers "exist as separate and
distinct entities"? Is that an axiom? And what your also saying, I
believe, is that to think an axiom exists, is false in the first place?
Ron:
Right on, axioms are not experience, axioms are assumptions about
experience. Assumptions which have value as a matter of convenience
of use.
