[MD] Philosophy and Abstraction

[Ian Glendinning]

All, dare I summarize ?

(1) It (Life, the universe and everything) is more than language.
(2) Philosophical discourse may be only language, but a good
philosophy is more than discourse.
(3) The philosophical "map", is a better one if the participant is
involved in able to change the map based on "real" experience.

(4) For some reason we're all a bit wary of characterizing that "real"
experience as pure / immediate, etc as suggested by "radical"
empiricism, because of misconstrued Platonist / anti-Platonist
interpretations.

Now THAT is language all the way down.
As you were.
