Mark and Marsha,
Let me start fresh and describe what I'm thinking, as clearly as I can.
There is relative truth in the statement, "the tendency over time for
conceptualization to become less useful" is true, IF we add in a missing
assumption or corellary or phrase "qua conceptualization".
That is, as a narrowing focus or defining label or "pinning down" of
reality - a conceptualization of reality, it becomes less "pinnable" the
more you examine it. Like a hypothesis of any part of reality, the more
you think about it, the bigger it gets.
I think the problem for me, is that with enlightenment on the subject,
comes the realization that this is a good thing, and not a "less useful"
one. In the end, it is the infinite regress of knowledge from inquiry that
places us squarely in an open-ended and infinite cosmos. A Quality
cosmos. Whereas if things were really reducible to machine-perfect
precision? We'd be living in a machine, part of the machinery.
Some of us as viruses,
J
