HOW DO WE UNDERSTAND LOGIC AND PHILOSOPHY ?
LOGIC does not operate within Nature, but within the Universe of Discourse (the world–language–thought triangulation) in which logical and linguistic variables can be transformed into constants through logical operations compatible with mathematical procedures grounded in general algebra and set theory. From Aristotle’s syllogistic, through symbolic and mathematical logic, to logical programming and artificial intelligence—logic is always computation with words and calculation with symbolic notation. For this reason, logic—much like mathematics—concerns itself with the calculable forms of human thought, whose ”solutions” take the form of correct inferences and valid proofs. Formal logic is a calculus of different levels of logical generality possessed by concepts, and a computation involving linguistic variables in the form of words, propositions, predicates, and logical functions expressed in symbolic notation. In this sense, logic branches into the calculus of concepts, the calculus of propositions, the calculus of predicates of the first and second order, the calculus of classes and the calculus of functions.

PHILOSOPHY serves to dramatically shake every tree of knowledge and the tree of life, from the root to the last branch. From this epistemological and ontological shake-up comes a new way of thinking about reality and a new beginning for sciences that have been cast into doubt by philosophical questions about the certainty of their principles. This new way of thinking and this new beginning for science signify a new logic of understanding reality. Scientific revolutions are not possible without philosophical doubt, which problematizes every scientific theory and every life practice when one thinks about the foundation and justification of scientific truths, or simply about the meaning of life. The strategy of philosophy is precisely to introduce rational unrest into self-evident forms of being in which mere moments of knowledge or raw sequences of givenness present themselves as the ultimate truths of the whole, whether these are mental or social constructs composed of formally logical or materially factual structures.
