dlewis Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 I should also better revise when I say "Knowledge is known" from "Any/all possible things we know" to "Any/all possible things known" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlewis Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I don't think I was phrasing the axioms for self and identity right. How about "Self self-exists" and "Identitity is identification?" By saying "Existence is identiy" or "Consciousness is identification," aren't these one (or a few more) logical steps removed from being axiomatic concepts (working to explain what they are with their own constituents)? Isn' t that why existence can be called an axiomatic concept, because "Existence exists" proves itself within its own axiom? "Self self-exists" could explain any things as having some different presence by their own makings, which together in effect composes all existence. "Identity is identitfication" would expalin how these selves connect together to become "self-knowledge" in combination with the axiom "Knowledge is known," thus metaphysically asserting that things actively are their own constituents, and thus relate things to other things, or selves to other selves, somehow. Does that make more sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
