@Firefly That's correct. You need to base your abstractions on observation.
Would you like to read Aquinas?
"Regarding the unity of the divine essence, we must first believe that God exists. This is a truth clearly known by reason. **We observe that** all things that move are moved by other things, the lower by the higher. The elements are moved by heavenly bodies; and among the elements themselves, the stronger moves the weaker; and even among the heavenly bodies, the lower are set in motion by the higher. This process cannot be traced back into infinity. For everything that is moved by another is a sort of instrument of the first mover. Therefore, if a first mover is lacking, all things that move will be instruments. But if the series of movers and things moved is infinite, there can be no first mover. In such a case, these infinitely many movers and things moved will all be instruments. But even the unlearned perceive how ridiculous it is to suppose that instruments are moved, unless they are set in motion by some principal agent. This would be like fancying that, when a chest or a bed is being built, the saw or the hatchet performs its functions without the carpenter. Accordingly there must be a first mover that is above all the the rest; and this being we call God."
@Deleted User thats from the time you couldn't know atoms moving themselves, right?
>But even the unlearned perceive how ridiculous it is to suppose that instruments are moved, unless they are set in motion by some principal agent.
'Atoms moving themselves'?
Do you really believe in that?
It's an analogy about instruments.
I'll move your ass to hell with my Stuka and my MP40
Prepare for ass-whooping
It's why a 'perpetual motion machine' is impossible.
Do you believe atoms are not moving by themselves?
That doesn't make any sense. Atoms have energy, of course they move.
Kys
@Deleted User They move without a push?
Gtfo of your shitty safe-space and fight us like men
Atoms have energy. The energy is the push.
The energy is transfered.
Did they gain energy from some source other than themselves?
They contain energy, not gain it. Just because they contain energy doesn't mean they are the source of it.
That's an abstraction science struggles with.
It seems priests already know the answer.
That's what their theology tells them. It is just faith. It is not supported by reason.
But it is hard to disprove.
And Aquinas is based on reason.
Marxism is based on matter, not reason.
I don't see how that is possible.
Matter is an abstraction. It's definition is open-ended.
Matter does not need definition.
or abstraction.
Matter exist without abstractions.

That's pretty based yo.
yes
Matter exists is a positive statement. You need to support this claim.
