Metaphysically Lightweight Posits
description We discuss metaphysically lightweight posits, providing some examples. The ontological assertion is that the right ontology does not include any lightweight posits. There are two semantical claims: statements about lightweight posits are often true in context, and truth is often indirect correspondence. Methodological claim is that this approach fits well with reflective common sense, considering the dialectics involving naïve common sense realism, common sense antinomies and the reflective or austere realism. This kind of approach is roughly compatible with Searle’s view on the same matters in his story about the construction of social reality.
