Re: [faithmaps] Parmenidesian metaphysics and truth

Hi, Stephen!

Thanks for the interest!

I will send you two papers in zip files. The one on Parmenides and then the second one, "The Isolation of Existence as a distinct Subject Matter." They are on my web site but they need to be reformatted. So, I will send them in zip files.

The paper on Absolute truth, I will write during the Month of September. I hiope to have asn out line and a draft written on Labor day as I do not have to teach that day. I would apprecuiate prayer for this effort since I will be writing this in far from optinmal conditions for philosophical composition. I will be glad to share this paper when I get it done. I will be giving this paer on 10/12. I hope I will have it done by the end of September.

But in no way could these truths be the sole foundations for knowledge as Descartes hoped to provide through His cogito ergo sum principle. "
Would this paper be accessible to us non-technicians? Or might you modify it for more popular consumption? Just a thought; I know you're mind-bogglingly busy, jon. Stephen Shields
