Platt, Bo, and All:
Metaphysics as a map? IMO a metaphysics is wrong when an instinctive logic
is willfully ignored, it is not a wrong plan of reality. If a wrong
metaphysics is like a bad map which I use when I am lost in the mountains,
there is no assurance I will know where I am in the mountains if I change
maps. Among other things my starting point is important. My logic can be
uncovered by reflecting upon my experience and instincts. If I find another
map, my trust in the mapmaker depends upon my experience. If the instincts
which create the intellectual order are changed only by a trust is social
orders' logical arguments, then it is hard to see the value of dynamic
experience. If I leave anything behind on the mountain after I have died,
someone else can see where I was if anyone cares.
