Also, I JUST realized you are Alex K! Lol. I was wondering how it was that I had already given you kudos. :-)

RE: Actual Infinities
Gee, I didn't know there were multiple kinds of integers. Do those vary from 'maths' to 'maths' ? Perhaps 1 is not always followed by 2 using some advanced Jethro theory of numbers. Mr. Math, you're talking complete nonsense. Changing methods of calculation or models has no effect on the actual nature of the reality described. Your position is basically that we live in a world without facts.

Sorry, that stupid IroscatoKaiser, in a weak moment, talked me into changing my Name a coupla days ago. Also, I went with the general Halloween trend.

In what fashion do abstract objects exist? Are principles and universals in the same category of being? How do they relate to physical objects? Are they separate realities that interact, in and/or outside of minds, or two sides of the same neutral substance?

Quote:Nominalism is a metaphysical view in philosophy according to which general or abstract terms and predicates exist, while universals or abstract objects, which are sometimes thought to correspond to these terms, do not exist.

In other words, utter bollocks and like most philosophy mental masturbation not based on evidence, observation or the scientific method.
