Thanks, extremly useful to sum up and overview the essence of these main thoughts, especially at these late hours!

@k0smon Sry, I misread, didn't see "used to."
-
@theyasin33 ::: Are you speaking of astronomy and astrology? Did you not notice the phrase "used to be"? They are not "completely different", since they both deal with movement of the heavenly bodies.
-
@k0smon No, they are completely different things.

@Gunbardo No ones knows, philosophy has tried to answer that question but failed .. No ones knows ..

Theory of Forms can be refuted by one word, evolution ..

Im still wondering, what is the sole existence of us human beings? Some say for survival and continuation, some say for experience what you may never experience if you hadnt exist. But what is the real purpose of our lifes?

when you say plato is sounds like play dough. :) lol

@wmiller24 Exactly! Aristote's view on numbers wasn't mystical (I wouldn't really say that Plato's was either), but he considers numbers as really ontologically existing (like physical objects). They are just from a different matter then perceivable objects. (That's in Metaphysics book Eta)

Excellent exposition!

How do you consider Plato and mystic, but concede he relies on mathematics? Aren't the two almost complete opposites?

Plato, and other philosophers before him (most notably, Pythagoras), had an extremely mystical view of numbers and of math. Think of the computer code in the virtual world of the Matrix (the movie). Neo's virtual world would be analogous to our visible world, i.e., not entirely real. The real world, for Plato, would be the computer code (the topos noetos). From Plato's perspective, if you could read the code (mathematics), you would be able to understand the nature of ultimate reality.
