After watching @Bob’s video about the death knell of the new atheism, I realized the harmonic triads are referred to as the three transcendentals.
I was not raised in that tradition. How come nobody has mentioned this to me? I had to glean it from what I was studying during my BA and nobody really talked about it. Probably because they would lose their jobs if they did, I’m guessing?
The only hint I had of it before getting my B.A. was “be do end” - which I gleaned from my ethics text (The Moral of the Story by Nina Rosenstand). It was not explicitly stated.
Imagine if I had grown up with it.
.
Yes… imagine…
Did you grow up with it? Or are you wanting to imagine you did?
Are you familiar with what it would take to have grown up in that sort of environment? Which culture/tradition teaches this to their children?
Did it used to be common? If so, when did it stop being common?
The former…
It wouldn’t be the latter, as I’m far too old to ‘play pretend’. lol
.
Are you familiar with what it would take to have grown up in that sort of environment?
Yes.
.
Which culture/tradition teaches this to their children?
It’s not so much solely about a culture or tradition as it is about attending a Catholic/Christian school, where such knowledge is disseminated.
.
Did it used to be common? If so, when did it stop being common?
Did what used to be common, sorry?
do play on

I ain’t playin!
I find it funny when inconsequential [to me] strangers care so much about my life and upbringing as to keep offering their ‘inconsequential’ opinions to me… in modern parlance, that’s called “hating”.
Keep hating, playa! … coz in this instance, you’re wrong I’m afraid.
.
…or as George S put it:
…is your thinking here, that my “lol” signifies that I am pretending [lying] when I said that I am “…far too old to ‘play pretend’”?

What if my “lol” was about me having to say the words “I am far too old’?
What if…?

You afraid cuz it’s only an instance, Provocatress! Don’t make me go back in time and rewrite your early childhood trauma! To yesterday, I meant! lol You a grown a$$ child!
Just kidding don’t speak in all caps at me. flinches

You afraid cuz it’s only an instance, Provocatress!
…another instance, where you seem to think you know why I’m afraid, as opposed to what I’m actually afraid of.
Why do we say "I’m afraid?
used to politely introduce bad news or disagreement: This is your room - it’s rather small, I’m afraid. I don’t agree at all, I’m afraid. I’m afraid you’ve completely misunderstood the question.
Such an olde English colloquialism, I know.

Let me know when you want to get back to the topic…
Thank you for womansplaining that.

…you’re welcome.
S/He means it^

It’s ‘She’
Okay.
This might be nothing.
Is there such a thing as meaning that is stripped of it being shown or stored/informed?

A first attempt at being concise. First, an introduction of C Theory and the Venn of Import, then an explanation of how C Theory is distinct from and resolves conflicts arising from A and B theories, using the Venn (or Harmonic Triad) of Import. In the C Theory of Time, there are beings (like us) who are subject to Time (language from Kant), and there is Being who is Time. Time is not “Being Alone” (Parmenides, unless he meant…) but is “Being in Relation”. As the unchanging ground or source su…
I discovered at least three other people calling this “trialectics” on the first page of a google search. Brief scan.
The word also occurred to me because I was comparing two different versions of the problem of evil, both which claimed to be trilemmas, but one of which… wasn’t.
Since I miss Ecmandu, so much, I’m going to Eastwood him by steel manning the problem of evil he insists will always be a problem… Then, I’ll toss it like a steel monkey wrench into the harmonic triads. I’m going to start with the three transcendentals in a creedal form: If something is true and good, it is also beautiful. If something is beautiful and true, it is also good. If something is good and beautiful, it is also true. How this will relate to the problem of evil is that the true line…
