Hi David and all,
In saying that "reality is outside of language" you have thrown the baby out
with the bathwater. There is a language of intellect, mathematics, which
identifies logical relationships. In a DQ/SQ metaphysics what is the
language of DQ? For myself I accept the language connected to emotions to
be indefinable yet comprehensible. I can communicate the undefined by
gesture etc. I accept I can communicate indefinable emotions.
In formalizing communication with logic I move from indefinable emotions to
a defined language, the intellectual level, where defined logic has reality.
Instead of saying that reality is outside of language, I would say that you
can communicate indefinable emotions through gesture, analogy and metaphor.
In mathematics, the intellectual level, forms have logical meanings.
Joe
