Metaphysical Explanation for the Number Three
What is the Number Three?
When examining what sort of existence the number three has, it is important first to understand exactly how it exists relevantly in the physical world. First of all, the primary existence of number three is not a tangible existence; one cannot walk through the forest and find threes growing wild with beautiful, silky, burnt orange and maroon spotted petals and green leaves. Second of all, the number three cannot do anything by itself to declare its own existence in the physical. Unlike air, gravity, or time, which are also intangible but still capable of certain physical actions such as wind, combustion (air), gravitational pull (gravity), or orbits (time), the number three does not have the physical properties necessary to be detected by the senses of any terrestrial being by itself.
So, exactly how does the number three exist? Well, it has a co-dependent existence; in order for three to exist, it requires something called "units." Three exists as an application of units, and units can be any existing thing with physical properties. The units are what determine the type of existence three has. If the unit is another application such as five, six, or seven, or a variable (a variable occurs when the units’ arrangement or amount varies) such as X or Y, then the existence is not yet detectable; this only creates another type of application or formula that requires units with physical proprieties to be "plugged into it" in order to be detected through the senses in the real world. There are two ways that three can be used as an application to units; it can be used in terms of quantitative measurement or it can be used in terms of sequences.
Earlier I mentioned that you cannot walk through the forest and find threes growing wild. However, you can find three tiger lilies growing wild. The tiger lilies are the units and three is the application. This is an example of three applied as a quantitative measurement. In other words, three is the amount of tiger lilies growing. You can tell there are three tiger lilies if you count the first seen as one, the second as two, and then the third as three, and you see no other tiger lilies besides the ones counted.
He has no prove of the existence of anyone he thinks and analyze so he exists.
The role of women in China has changed dramatically, from one servitude and repression in ancient China, to one of equality in modern China. China women were sometimes subject to their father but when they got married they were subjected to obey their husband without and questioning. ?This study considers family development and attitudes toward motherhood in light of changing roles of women in China. The effects of revolutionary events and government policies on marriage and the traditional family are presented based on interviews conducted in China and a review of the literature? (Hare-Mustin and Hare 67-82). I think that women in any culture should have the same role because it seem like China women have no freedom. Some women went to night school, or worked at the factory until laws were passed to equalize women under the law.
The director has also used sound and image to explore her opinion for those domesticated whales. There’s a scene in the film is about SeaWorld separated a young killer whale, Takara from her mother, Kasatka. After Takara had already been stretchered out of the pool, Kasatka tried everything to find her daughter.
The. His existence is seen as simply another property of his being. Just like omnipotence and omnipresent are the properties of the. One example that has been used to explain this is a triangle. The sand is a triangle.
What is real is the totality of Forms and these Forms account for whatever stability and intelligibility the world of illusory sense experience may possess.
If we are living in a simulation perhaps that would explain some of the reasons why we find certain numbers and patterns in our reality. Such as the Fibonacci sequence, pi, the golden ratio, and the fact that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light. To a skeptical mind all these things might suggest that the designer of a simulated reality took shortcuts and simply repeated some math to save time.
Bertrand Russell discussed certain problems he found with philosophy. Russell was concerned about how much did we really know. There is the stuff we know with our mind when we have a particular idea, and stuff we know through actually experiencing it which would justify it. But how do we know if it is real, or even there, for that matter? Russell says, “For if we cannot be sure of the independent existence of object, we cannot be sure of the independent existence of other people’s bodies, and therefore still less of other peoples minds, since we have no grounds for believing in their minds except such as are derived from observing their bodies” (Russell, 47). How can Farmer Brown be sure that the dairyman just didn’t have an idea that the cow was there. Farmer Brown wants more than just an idea in order to feel safe that his prize cow is still there. Another problem Russell would have with the cow in the field is the nature of the matter. Russell says we have knowledge of truth and knowledge of things. Knowledge of truth is propositional knowledge or what we’re most certain in through direct experience. Russell says, “But we cannot hope to be acquainted directly with the quality in the physical objects which makes it blue or red. Science tells us this quality is a certain sort of wave motion, and this sounds familiar, because we think of wave motions in the space we see” (Russell, 52). What he is saying that the dairy man has had direct experience with the cow, he know...
Good things come in threes. The power of three suggests that those that come in threes are funnier, more satisfying, and more effective. Maybe that is why there are always up to three people that affects one’s life. Three people make a social circle. Eighteen years into Fariha Alam’s life did she realize who her three were.
In the second quarter of 2013, Net Revenues were $8.6billions (increased by 0.8%). ("Mondelez international reports," 2013) Organic Net Revenues increased by 3.8%, they were leaded by strong/ volume mix of 3.6% points as well as favorable pricing of 0.2% points. ("Mondelez international reports," 2013) Power Brands are growing continually by up of 7.9%, and Milka is posting double-digit increase. ("Mondelez international reports," 2013)
In the Third Meditation, Descartes forms a proof for the existence of God. He begins by laying down a foundation for what he claims to know and then offers an explanation for why he previously accepted various ideas but is no longer certain of them. Before he arrives at the concept of God, Descartes categorizes ideas and the possible sources that they originate from. He then distinguishes between the varying degrees of reality that an idea can possess, as well as the cause of an idea. Descartes proceeds to investigate the idea of an infinite being, or God, and how he came to acquire such an idea with more objective reality than he himself has. By ruling out the possibility of this idea being invented or adventitious, Descartes concludes that the idea must be innate. Therefore, God necessarily exists and is responsible for his perception of a thing beyond a finite being.
Chapter two of The Universe and the Teacup deals with exponential numbers. More precisely, it deals with the difficulty humans have in processing very large and very small numbers. The term the book uses to describe this difficulty is "number numbness."
how much there is, and numbers tell you how many there are. This is cause for
The law of excluded middle is the third of the three laws of thought first written down by Aristotle. The first law is the law of identity which states that everything is identical to itself and different from anything else. The second law is the law of non-contradiction which states that contradictory statements cannot be true and not true at the same time. The third and most controversial law is the law of excluded middle which states that every contradictory statement must either be true or false. This principle is widely used in exact sciences. There is, for example, the proof by contradiction. In a proof by contradiction one assumes that some proposition is false and shows that this leads to a contradiction. From this one concludes that the proposition must be true. The law of excluded middle is used in the following way. Because the proposition cannot be false it must be that the proposition is true. An example of a proof by contradiction is the following theorem due to Euclides [3].
Evidently explaining the concept of sense-data as having an objective state neutral with the object; but clarifies how the appearance of a subjective type of reality is through sensing that data individually (pg. 194). Matter being identified as all physical objects, the example of the table is stated to be matter as well. However, Russell continues to introduce Berkeley as an idealist philosopher who denies that there are things which exists outside of the mind and as one who is dependent on the mind of a god to experience the reality of things (pg. 194). Leibniz believes that the appearance of physical objects can be quantified as the grouping of undeveloped minds or bodies (pg. 195). Within the first chapter, Russell establishes that although both Berkeley and Leibniz acknowledge the existence of the table and apply skepticism to believe that matter is either within the mind of god or a collection of ideas, that due to the possibility of the sense based appearance of matter not cohering with realities qualities, we are left with only more questions that ask of the existence of reality and ways which one may uncover its
The month was coming to an end. Unfortunately, February skipped along happily to March without any consideration for Jessie’s birthday. Another year went by; Jessie stayed two and Megan turned ten! Since Jessie would not have a birthday, Megan would share hers with her twin sister, again.
