I&#8217;m a woefully amateur swimmer and I have no doubt that an occasional philosophical lifeguard will dive into my then muddied waters to pull me back into the tepid kiddie section, but for now I wade on. In this post, I&#8217;m not much considering a question as much as sharing a chart.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->There&#8217;s the age old question about abstract objects (like the color red, or the number seven, or the property of Good) whereby philosophers wonder if they are real existing Somewhere or if they are merely convenient names for these ideas we&#8217;ve come\u00a0 up with. When studying these\u00a0 things, I&#8217;ve seen some connections in them, and in theories of how-we-know-what-we-know and I created this chart. It helped me think some of the things out, though any true philosopher would likely laugh at it pointing out the multitude of displayed stupidity. Fear of displaying my stupidity has never stopped me from displaying my stupidity in the past, and I doubt it will in the future. Here&#8217;s the chart but please, make sure to click on it to see it biggie sized.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/biblearchive.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/UNIVERSALS.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"2333\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/biblearchive.com\/blog\/philosophy-fridays-universal-family-tree\/universals\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/biblearchive.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/UNIVERSALS.png?fit=1546%2C389&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1546,389\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"UNIVERSALS\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/biblearchive.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/UNIVERSALS.png?fit=580%2C146&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2333\" title=\"UNIVERSALS\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/biblearchive.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/UNIVERSALS-300x75.png?resize=442%2C110\" alt=\"\" width=\"442\" height=\"110\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/biblearchive.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/UNIVERSALS.png?resize=300%2C75&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/biblearchive.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/UNIVERSALS.png?resize=1024%2C257&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/biblearchive.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/UNIVERSALS.png?w=1546&amp;ssl=1 1546w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/biblearchive.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/UNIVERSALS.png?w=1160&amp;ssl=1 1160w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 442px) 100vw, 442px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Fridays, I enjoy wading into the deep end of the pool to try treading the deep waters of philosophy.
