There’s a huge hole in how humanity thinks about reality. The problem is a very old one, but only a tiny group of philosophers ever took an interest in it. To the average person, it’s an obscure and unfathomable issue. To the truly intelligent, it’s the key to understanding existence. To clarify this issue is to get rid of so much junk in the way of humanity’s ability to explain reality.
If you consider yourself one of the smartest people in the world, you have to do what unintelligent people never do, and that’s to become interested in the most rarefied topics, topics which seem absurd to the simple-minded, to the sort of people who aren’t in the game of explaining reality and never could be.
