Stacey seem to be in overdrive mode to carve out a new idol, physics using mathematics, while God wants us to use mathematics (quantity/objects) with the ingenuity by each mind to make a subjective (qualitative) life. Prior such idolisation gives life line to many atheists, some so far in trusting scientific methods preclude the existence of God while the others trust the methods itself is God, and shall be basis of life. The frog in the well have enough entertainments to remain there and assert he saw everything observable and there is nothing beyond the well.

As I read these installments, I find myself wondering how representative Aristotle's view of the physical world is representative of the Greeks of his time. We know there wefre multiple schools of thought in his time.

I have no doubt the ancient Greeks subscribed to a cyclical world. From what is presented here, it is less clear they all subscribed to the same idea of a world as an organism.. (Of course, that may just be my lack of an education in the classics).

Safe travels!
