There can be no doubt that God makes decisions a propos of the disjunctive multiplicity of eternal objects; the difficulty is to establish in precisely what sense these divine decisions are distinguishable from the choices and calculations made by the Leibnizian deity Whitehead's dilemma seems to be this: on the one hand, the principle of classification is to be challenged by positing the primordiality of a world of eternal objects that knows «no exclusions, expressive in logical terms»; on the other hand, positing pure potentiality as a «boundless and unstructured infinity» (IWM 252) lacking all logical order would seem to be precisely that conceptual move which renders it «inefficacious» or «irrelevant.»

To carry through the process of rethinking the account of actual occasions and eternal objects in the light of the full doctrine of God will be in line with the direction in which Whitehead's own thought was moving at this point and will also alter in subtle, but at times important, ways the precise form of the doctrine of God.

This leads Cobb to examine how Whitehead moves from the substance oriented language of modernity to a «postmodern» understanding of events - in - relation which overcomes the subject - object dichotomy of modernity (FCPP 167 - 187).

«For us, the hardware isn't much of a concern because it is widely available and getting cheaper,» explains Hatch, referring to gadgets such as the Apple iPhone, which is able to translate two fingertips pinching together and moving apart into smaller and bigger objects, respectively, on its small display.

Another monocular cue is motion parallax, which occurs when an observer moves his or her body (or just the head) to provide hints about the relative distance between objects.
