More on Hegel’s Idealism, I

I noticed on Amazon.com that considerable interest exists on the work of Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770-1831). So, I decided to study Hegel’s work in detail. I already concluded that Hegel’s thoughts align to the negative theology of Nicholas of Cusa and my use of Leibniz’s true atoms, which I view as spiritual atoms of the universe. Hegel also views the true Absolute (God) as the Negation of the Negation, which agrees with my book. So, I expect to post on this website information on Hegel’s idealism from time to time.

In the book title, "Hegel: The Essential Writings" by Friederick G. Weiss, the Foreword is written by J. N. Findlay. There, Findlay provides three points of discussion that might guide scientists. First, he says that a merely descriptive view of the world never plunges beneath the surface or raises WHY kind of questions. Findlay thus wonders why scientists do not seek the purpose of the world and its things. Second, Findlay says that the endless explanatory regress, which is favored by science, cannot be intellectually satisfactory if ‘bad infinities’ are accepted. Findlay thus wonders why ‘true infinities’ are not sought by scientists. Third, Findlay says that one’s Absolute must not be without something which contrasts with it. Findlay is thus saying that an Absolute is active and cannot be ‘above the battle.’ With Findlay’s guidance, new scientific thoughts might emerge.
