The universe is everything that exists. More particularly, one could ask, is the universe one thing, that is, is it a 'singularity'?, or is the universe many things or a 'plurality' of existents? To review some philosophical commentaries on that subject you could do some research on the discussion groups that are hosted and archived on www.google.com . Go to 'Groups', and select 'humanities', 'philosophy', and 'Objectivism'. Search for the following keywords and keyword combinations: +universe +plurality +universe +singularity +existence +plurality +existence +singularity universe existence plurality singularity Note that a singularity that is claimed to be the universe, as is claimed by most religionists, has never been observed, however, a plurality of existents that is the universe has been observed everywhere in science and by every person. Searches of other groups and keywords may be helpful. Ralph Hertle |
