The human mind,
in Whitehead's
view, is an example
of the latter: «There is also an enduring
object formed by the inheritance from presiding occasion to presiding occasion» (PR 167).
too true; you're right, we are holistic people
in a holistic world living holistic lives and political theory, religion, ethics, behavior, psychology, these and many others are all so inextricably intertwined with each other that it may be better to think
of them as different
views of the same
object rather than distinct
objects that are inter-related (using «
object» here,
of course, metaphorically)
Since there are no eternal
objects or pre-existing forms
in Hartshorne's
view, the function

If it is rebutted that we need not speak
of the experience as the
object of knowledge
of this reflexive awareness, then this
view boils down to a recommendation for a radical shift
in our understanding
of what we mean when we speak
of an «awareness
of» or «knowledge
of» something, a shift which is unwarranted.
In the same spirit Santayana and Whitehead agree in objecting, like Nietzsche, to the idea that change in the natural world is controlled by «laws of nature,» viewing the laws rather as simply descriptions of what each unit to which they apply «decides» to do itself (RB 301 - 302

Cf. D. Emmet: «But the doctrine
of the objective immortality
of actual entities...
in the constitution
of other actual entities is, as Miss Stebbing points out, a departure from the earlier
view of events as particular and transient, and
objects alone as able to «be again».
In the earlier
views this was a cognitive relation
of a conscious mind to
objects known.
(a) Hartshorne's objection to my position on truth would be that I assume that there are truths about the past and that truth is real now as involving a relation
of correspondence with an
object, the past; however, the past on my
view is not real now, is not preserved
in its full subjective immediacy
in the consequent nature
of God.
In this

Although I
objected to the formulation

view of immanence and transcendence by Stackhouse and McCann, they rightly begin there
in explaining our differences.
What is necessary is a philosophical analysis

5 This is a remarkable anticipation
of Whitehead's
view in Process and Reality that God's primordial ordering
of the world's possibilities (the eternal
objects) is the ultimate source
of novelty
in an emergent universe, except that Thornton understands these possibilities to be everlasting rather than timeless.6 This reification
of what for Whitehead is purely possible, needing concrete embodiment
in the actual world, leads Thornton to conceive
of the eternal order as absolutely actual
in its unchangeableness, identical with God.
We raise these limitations because they bear directly on Charles Hartshorne's question
of the reconciliation

of absolute simultaneity with the process
view of God.15 How indeed can God participate both as possible subject and
object in every actual occasion
in a universe subject to a principle
of locality?
In our general
view of process thought we follow Charles Hartshorne's interpretations and revisions
of Whitehead, especially on the issue
of the nature
of eternal
objects.
Consequently as regards the fundamental contention we are examining, it is not appropriate,
in view of the historical associations that burden the word «material» to subsume under the term «matter» the subjectivity which is also met with within the primordial unity we have described, because to do so would at least obscure the equally fundamental difference encountered
in that unity between the knowing subject and the
object which is merely met with.
We must therefore, from the experiential point
of view, call these godless or quasi-godless creeds «religions»; and accordingly when
in our definition
of religion we speak
of the individual's relation to «what he considers the divine,» we must interpret the term «divine» very broadly, as denoting any
object that is godlike, whether it be a concrete deity or not.
«The pictures
in which we
view God, the thoughts
in which we think Him, the words with which we can define Him, are
in themselves unfitted to this
object and thus inappropriate to express and affirm the knowledge
of Him.»
The Service
of the Lord was the
object in view.
«The best
view is by no means the closest
view... we consciously stand back and create distance
in order to look at the world, i.e., at
objects as parts
of the world: and also to be unembarrassed by the closeness
of that which we wish only to see; to have the full liberty
of our scanning attention.»
According to the ethics report, physicians
objecting to abortion or contraception must refer patients desiring such services to other providers (recommendation # 4); may not argue or advocate their
views on these matters though they are required to provide prior notice to their patients

in emergency cases or
in situations that might negatively affect patient physical or mental health, they must actually provide contraception and / or perform abortions (recommendation # 5, emphasis added).

of Christians called the Protestant Episcopal Church have represented by their petition addressed to the General Assembly, that great advantages would accrue to said Church, and they hope and believe to the interests
of religion and morals
in general, by the incorporation
of a Divinity School for the training and instructions
of students for the sacred ministry
in the Church aforementioned.»)
Hartshorne intrepidly draws numerous conclusions
of this sort, stoutly maintaining that his theory makes for more comprehensive sense than the traditional
view that holds that, when one sees an external
object, he really sees the

He can also proceed with a determination maximizing his chances for political success; for he will find it hard to convince himself that,

in moral qualities between himself and the
object of his power, he has not only a moral right but also a moral duty to rule.

of speech
in that it offers an all - embracing

Although Schmidt derives his
view from the SMW chapter «Abstraction,» he evidently finds the basis for his observation
in statements Whitehead made about the relational essence
of eternal
objects, and this buttresses my own conclusions.
Indeed, if all the passages
in which God is presented as the conceptual valuation
of eternal
objects have been inserted
in an already existing text where God is always described
in much more general terms, the logical conclusion is that the
views expressed
in the insertions must be conceptually later than those expressed
in the text where they have been inserted.

of view of the subject and conceived objectively, and, on the other hand, it has to be maintained
in its integrity,
viewed from a perspective which precedes the subject -
object distinction.

objects» are theoretical entities,
in that the abstract mathematical picture they present is very different from anything which could be given
in sense perception; hence the plausibility
of views which only give them meaning within the context
of a scientific theory.
They could not be
objects of our knowledge, and even worse, from Plato's point
of view, the gods who knew them would not know its, or anything
in the world below.
Then when a particular situation occurs, God simply does what he had from all eternity decided that he would do
in such a situation, which he had eternally contemplated as possible.1 This
view has important similarities to John Cobb's exposition
of Whitehead's
view of God's knowledge
of eternal
objects, though Cobb might not wish to claim that the primordial orderings
of eternal
objects are conscious, as Creel claims about God's knowledge
of possibilities.2
This
view was given a great deal
of support through the use
of the lens, which provides
in principle (as shown
in Fig. 2) a point - to - point correspondence between
object, O, and Image, I. By creating such a correspondence, the
In a few thousand years of recorded history, we went from dwelling in caves and mud huts and tee - pees, not understanding the natural world around us, or the broader universe, to being able to travel through space, using reason to ferret out the hidden secrets of how the world works, from physics to chemistry to biology, we worked out the tools and rules underpinning it all, mathematics, and now we can see objects that are almost impossibly small, the very tiniest building blocks of matter, (or at least we can examine them, even if you can't «see» them because you're using something other than your eyes and photons to view them) to the very farthest objects, the planets circling other, distant stars, that are in their own way, too small to see from here, like the atoms and parts of atoms themselves, detected indirectly, but indisputably THER

The correctness
of the epistemological analysis
of experience according to the subject -
object schema must not be allowed to lead to an ontological
view of objects as different
in kind from subjects
in any way other than the difference between past and present.
If I were to conceive
of both myself and the
object as world - lines
in space - time that intersect on the occasions when the
object reacts against me, I would
view myself as an
object in the world
of existents and there would be nothing external to me
in the epistemological sense
of an external world.
Nevertheless, the layman's common - sense
view of reality is baffled by such conundrums as the nature
of time and space, the reality
of human freedom, quantum jumps
in physics, or the claim
of modern science that colors are not really present
in the
objects of perception but only
in the mind
of the beholder.
He did not merely copy Democritus» physics, as was commonly thought, but introduced the idea
of spontaneity into the movement
of the atoms, and to the Democritus world
of inanimate nature ruled by mechanical laws he added a world
of animate nature
in which the human will operated.9 Marx thus favours the
views of Epicurus for two reasons: firstly, his emphasis on absolute autonomy
of the human spirit has freed human beings from all superstitions
of transcendent
objects; secondly, the emphasis on «free individual self - consciousness» shows one way
of going beyond the system
of a «total philosophy».
And Duméry concludes,
