Hi Matthew (01)
> OK. Can you say what it is about them that makes them logical then? (02)
I really do not intend to clog the list with circular statements or
off topic. My comment was in reply to the suggestion that logic and
ontology are not related, while obviously they are, although they are
related in many different ways. (03)
Whether this is a lexical or philosophical issue, I am not sure, and
thats what motivates much of the ontology work that many of us do,
that is, reconcile different truths and different points of view (04)
I dont know what makes logic logical, when I asked this question
before I was answered that 'science does answer such questions' (05)
To be answered sensibly may benefit from an interdisciplinary
approach, and there may no short answer, but I ll be happy to hear
suggestions (06)
However, since you are in a quiz mood (Friday night?) perhaps you can
provide examples of relationships in any ontology of your choice
that are either logical or not logical, and explain why that is so. (07)
Apologies if I may have to delay possible follow ups to this
conversation til I come back from a long overseas trip that will keep
me connected only briefly when traveling.... (08)
