GF: Good point, Jon -- we should not neglect the element of performance art in
philosophy! :-)
GF: However I'm not sure it's right to say that the metaphysical order is more
fundamental than the
phenomenological. It doesn't seem to jibe with Peirce's classification of
the sciences, either.
JA: Yes, we always have the choice between "first in nature" and "first for us".
I have no strong feelings about which first comes first -- I was just going
by Peirce's statement:
CSP: Besides, it would be illogical to rely upon the categories to decide so
fundamental a question.
JA: But you are right, one could just as well say that independent foundations
are both fundamental
without one foundation being more fundamental than the other.
