I'm open to philosophize about it but I'll never be "correct" and in that dichotomy it's easy to see one needs the perfection of mathematics to quantify what surrounds us, IMHO. So I can reason then, that all science is theory waiting to be proven - and everytime I make that discovery I disabuse myself of that same notion! It's complex and intriguing! Like Beth we attempt to seek what's reasonable, but again have nothing to measure it against. What's correct reasoning? Isn't your ability to reason out a dilemma as valid as one who sees it differently? "Correct" IMHO is an absolute, like "alive" or "dead". I like your take on language and its formality vs. naturalness. Some would proffer it's just a sound we're able to make because we have a larynx, and we've certainly proven we can communicate w/o it. So who knows? Very enlightening stimulating post! O yes, to answer your question: I find *you* relevant, because you exist. I think all life is profound, as it confounds lol.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13788060917420508410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4240652707324624619.post-82419213691183769122009-11-25T12:59:35.920-05:002009-11-25T12:59:35.920-05:00As a scientist, I rely a lot on logic and rational...As a scientist, I rely a lot on logic and rational thinking. However, the emotional, gut instinct can also be valid, and provide a humanistic element. We just have to learn how to find the balance between logic and emotion.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05149068921334726430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4240652707324624619.post-50020728218988407902009-11-25T09:00:20.975-05:002009-11-25T09:00:20.975-05:00I tend to think of things in the abstract.

The way that objects and actions interact based on the not readily seen or easily observed. <br /><br />The reason that I do this is that I have found that the underlying purpose of a thing or an act often has as much meaning as the observed purpose of that thing or action.Big Mark 243https://www.blogger.com/profile/10974573439218884164noreply@blogger.com
