[MD] Realism and anti-realism

[Joseph Maurer]

Hi Mark and All,

What is the reality of metaphysical Logic?  I suggest that levels in
existence (evolution) is the determinant for logical reality.
The new vocabulary proposes levels in existence, reality, evolution.

Can we accept more than one thing at a time?  In the acceptance of evolution
the higher level absorbs and modifies the lower level. For levels in
existence to make sense the lower is contained in the higher.  Evolution is
not indefinable individuality.  The discernment of a higher level in
evolution verifies the lower base.  What are these words "higher" and
"lower"?  How is evolution a hierarchy?

The rigorous logic of mathematics denies evolution as levels in existence.
1 is 1 

S/O metaphysics accepts existence as one, good, thing, true.  MOQ, in the
acceptance of indefinable DQ has broadened logic. The hierarchy in
existence, evolution, can be logically discussed.
