S: SO, YOU INCLUDE HUMANS AS PART OF THE NATURE TO BE STUDIED. The fact that we are able to ask this question means that we have some kind of pre-knowledge about nature as a whole S: THIS WOULD HAVE BERN DERIVED FROM OUR CULTURE while at the same time this pre-knowledge is problematic, otherwise we would not ask the question and would not be able to become natural philosophers.

IN SOME CASES THAT CULTURE MAY NOT DIFFERENTIATE REALITY FROM NATURE Since the idea that classical Natural Philosophy evolved into science seems correct, we are left, for the domain of Natural Philosophy, with only a speculative interpretation of nature viewed in its entirety. S: OK This interpretation is, <i>ipso facto</i>, at a lower ontological level than the science which has largely replaced it. S: IN WHAT SENSE LOWER?

then changes to the difference between nature and reality as a whole, including
fictions, non-verifiable beliefs and intangible objects of thought. Since the
idea that classical Natural Philosophy evolved into science seems correct,
we are left, for the domain of Natural Philosophy, with only a
speculative interpretation of nature viewed in its entirety. This
interpretation is, <i><span style="font-style:italic">ipso facto</span></i>, at
a lower ontological level than the science which has largely replaced it. Much
of the 20th Century linguistic turn, expressed in both analytical and
phenomenological and residual transcendental traditions, is well visible in
contemporary philosophy.<u></u><u></u></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:35.4pt"><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:12pt">The reaction
to this unsatisfactory state of affairs has been the reinstatement of realisms
and materialisms of various kinds, associated today with the names of Derrida,
Badiou, Zizek, and others. The ‘ontological turn’ in philosophy is
a term of art that designates dissatisfaction with descriptions of reality
based on analytical, semantic criteria of truth. Starting with
Heidegger’s critique of hermeneutics and the basing of philosophy on
human life, the ontological turn is a challenge to neo-Kantian epistemologies,
and looks to what the structure of the world might be like to enable
scientific, that is, non-absolute knowledge. Unfortunately, ontological
theories have been hobbled by the retention of static terms whose
characteristics are determined by bivalent logic. In 2002, Priest suggested
that such an ontological turn in philosophy was taking place, away from
language in the direction of an contradictorial view of reality. Priest
proposed paraconsistent logic as appropriate to this turn, but his system suffers
from the epistemological limitations of paraconsistency. Lupasco, on the other
hand, anticipated the ontological turn by some 60 years. (In the complete
article, I show that his logical system can be used to differentiate between
Natural Philosophy and Philosophy <i><span style="font-style:italic">tout
court.</span></i>)<u></u><u></u></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:35.4pt"><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:12pt">The most
important point for me is that Natural Philosophy tells us something real about
the world that is consistent with our best science, physical, biological and
cognitive. Speculative philosophy can always re-illuminate
‘eternal’ questions such as what it means to be a thinking being in
a non-thinking environment. This non-Natural Philosophy, to repeat, exists for
‘natural’ reasons: it is a natural necessity for human beings to
create it, by a natural process, but it is not part of nature <i><span style="font-style:italic">qua</span></i> content. <u></u><u></u></span></font></p>

valuable formulation of the – daunting - task at hand. The task is
logical and philosophical, as well as scientific. Philosophy here, exemplified
by the Philosophy of Information, does not mean standard discussions of
‘where did we come from’ and ‘does a transcendent deity
exist’, which are as sterile in their way as the excesses of the IT and
AI ideologists. Natural Philosophy can be a ‘vehicle’ for
interaction between people of good will, the collaboration that you point to
that may help to advance IS4SI. Some of you who may not have been at the
Conference in San Francisco (Berkeley) may wish to look at abstracts of papers
from the Philosophy of Information sub-conferences at the 2015, 2017 and 2019
Summit conferences on Information.</span></font><u></u><u></u></p>

it starts, in my opinion, with some self-examination, examination of whether
one’s own theories are just ‘pet’ theories. Applying this
criterion to my own Logic in Reality, about which I have written on several
occasions, I claim that it is not just a pet theory. It is a new perspective on
how information, logic and thought operate as real processes, following laws
within the laws of physics, without loss of a human, ethical dimension.
However, LIR makes many demands on one. It requires an understanding and
acceptance of what is /<i><span style="font-style:italic">not</span></i>/
Natural Philosophy, which may include some of the ideas that have appeared in
this list. </span></font><u></u><u></u></p>

non-separability, I do not call for any exclusions or limitations on the list.
I only wish that everyone makes the necessary effort to position his or her own
views in relation to the overriding need for furthering the Common Good. The
sum of all such honest self-referential (or second-order recursive) opinions of
people about their own work would itself be a useful creative effort, I think.</span></font><u></u><u></u></p>
