Toward a Platonic model of creation- ver. 1
This is very very speculative, and is likely to
change before the end of the day. I offer it as
sharable thinking piece in which anybody can
join in (a wiki game) and change or add to.

Hi Alberto G. Corona
Leibniz, being an Idealist, took the monads and ideas to be real,
the physical world to be phenomenol, but not an illusion.
You could still stub your toe.

Hi Richard,
Plato's One cannot be a number, for it is where
numbers and their properties come from.
Your thinking is filled with category mistakes.

Roger,
The monads are collectively god
That's is likely what Newton would believe
and most likely what Liebnitz really believed in
but was afraid to express.

Right. Which is only possible if both mind and body (brain) are
treated as mind, which is what L did with his monads.
Materialism treats them both as body, which is nonsensical.

how about expanding our closed (mathematical) minds into not only
decimal, binary, etc., but also a (hold on fast!) 12/17ary number
systems?
in that case 17 would be non-primary, divisible by 2,3,4,6 besides
the 1.

Dear Stephen,
it is amazing how we formulate our (belief) systems similarly,
except for yours in a descriptive - mine in an agnostic

Dear Roger and Richard,
This is what I have come to believe about Monads as well. They are
collectively God, they do not have an absolute hierarchy. Their relation
is more like what we see in a neural

With CTM it is simple, if our knowledge augment linearly, our
ignorance augments non computably. The more we know, the more we can
intuit how much we don't know, making us wiser (with some luck). We
can jump from big picture to big picture,
OOps#2: I would have to be a super-Gauss to explain the 12/17ary system.
The last time I really *studied* math-rules was in 1948, preparing for my
Ph.D. exam, - since then I only forget.
12/17 is surely a value, hopefully applicable in erecting a math-system,
like with 2 the binary, or with 10
