Hi Roger,
What purpose does the idea of an actual Supreme Monad have? The
point is that /there does not exist a single Boolean algebraic
description of its perception/. We can still imagine what such a
supremum <http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Supremum.html> exist but such
only are real for one individual mind at a time. This is the "person
relationship with God" idea. This is a possible solution to the measure
problem that Bruno discusses.

Although monads do not perceive the world directly,
whatever does it for them (the Supreme Monad
or to use a word despised by some on the list, God)
must have a very wide bandwidth. Leibniz
says that perception of bodies is only possible
if the receptor (God) has wideband ability
since the objects of experience are all different
and are infinite variety not only as a whole
but in themselves.

Leibniz would say, "If there's no God, we'd have to invent him so
everything could function."
