There is never a time that is the wrong time for Three Little Birds.
(** glances at the thread title **)
"The Acceptable" which, in arising, defines "The Unacceptable", is an idea about reality.

Greetings..
'Reality' is an idea about what 'is', about 'isness'.. some ideas work, they resonate with what is actually happening.. some ideas create mindscapes of sub-sets of sets of ideas within contexts of imagined meanings, and set up conflicting understandings and intentions..
Be well..

To whom it may concern: isness and "what is" are ideas about reality. sincerely,

Be well.. It's like Bohr said: "It is wrong to think that the task of physics is to find out how Nature is. Physics concerns what we say about Nature."

My favorite attributed to him goes something like "Our efforts thus far have resulted in a paradox. Excellent! Now we have hope of making some real progress!". Hey can I be a knight mod or a rook mod?? I don't like bein' a pawn!!

Greetings.. The philosophical and sub-set perspectives may be valid in those contexts. That can be discussed, but as you say, they all still know what a chair is for because they're sitting in one. Is there really a problem? When the sub-set and its context is believed to be superior to the absence of sets/sub-sets and contexts.. there really is a problem.. Be well.. IOW, if ideas are believed to be superior to no ideas?

IOW, if ideas are believed to be superior to no ideas? No, the 'sub-set' shapes the context into a 'set' of beliefs that conflict with other sub-sets.. in the case where the subsets of science and philosophy have 'validity' within their respective contexts, that validity is diminished when the context/subset is not consistent with reality as a functional whole.. the conflict is evidenced when a sub-set claims superiority.. Be well..
