Bruno,
I am indeed ready to pursue further and since we'll be
covering both topics anyhow, I would prefer that you choose which
would be the most natural next step for us.
Hmm... The problem is that it is natural or not according to

Hi,
OK, I will come back on the square root of 2 later.
We have talked on sets.
Sets have elements, and elements of a set define completely the set,
and a set is completely defined by its elements.
Example: here is a set of numbers {1, 2, 3}
and a set of sets of numbers {{1, 2}, {3}, { }}.

That's a bit of a straw man you're refuting. I've never heard anyone claim

So the brain (i.e. what the eye can see) can't be the mind; but the
intuition remains that mind and brain might be correlated by some
inclusive conception that would constitute our ontology: Kant's great
insight stands.

I think that's a misuse of ontology. When we discuss the atomic theory of

Another example of your somewhat non-standard definition 2 usage:
First of all I think epistemology precedes ontology. We first get
knowledge of some facts and then we create an ontology as part
of a theory to explain these facts.
