What he fails to spell out in detail here but indicates elsewhere (e.g., PR 96-98/147 -150) is that the extensive continuum or, more specifically in terms of our cosmic epoch, the space - time continuum is not just a single overarching community of actual occasions but an interlocking network of communities or societies of occasions, each of which possesses its own laws and proper dynamism.

More to the point, Newton's «Scholium» which introduces the notions of «absolute, true, mathematical» space and time, and «relative, apparent, common» space and time (PNP 6 - 12), makes clear that absolute space and absolute time continua are thought to be necessary for a satisfactory theory of dynamics, that is, a theory of the forces which determine • the motion of material objects.7 The main idea in Newton's position is that not all physical frames of reference are suitable for satisfactory analysis of the motion of material objects; in fact, no physical frame of reference is completely suitable for this purpose.

As the «one relational complex in which all potential objectifications find their niche,» (Process 66) for Whitehead the extensive continuum certainly corresponds to the breadth of vision of the divine primordial nature, even as the space - time continuum as a partial realization of the extensive continuum corresponds to the more limited character of the divine consequent nature here and now Thus, even though Whitehead does not make explicit use of field - oriented imagery to describe the God - world relationship, the concepts are at hand to sustain that line of thought.8

He can in this way realign philosophy with contemporary scientific theory, while at the same time providing the latter with a «ground» in immediate experience which had been lacking in traditional empiricism, modeled as that was on corpuscular theories of nature.8 In his early work, Whitehead employs Bradley's antiatomism within a classically empiricist framework; redefined as a continuum, sensation still plays its conventional role as a theory of «presentation» (EPNK 60), the given foundation of the reflective process.9

In his relations with other people, he can act from the dictates of his own conscience; at its highest the relationship of love can be elevated to a degree of complete service and good will which seems to transcend the space - time continuum.
