What does that even mean?
It means, you are a human being. Where does your being come from?
Are only living things "being"?
And everything else is non-being?
Being springs from non-being?
The idea is that existence itself is being, and our being human comes from that being.
Your handle is polymathwannabe. Do you have some polymaths in mind who you emulate? Who would you say was the last great polymath?
I'm going to be extremely generous and suppose that what you said made any sense at all. Still, we are talking different languages, and I see no hope of this discussion getting anywhere. With each post it is harder to understand what you mean. This is not worth the 5 karma points it's costing me every time I need to ask for more clarification. I'm done here.
I ask because it seems to me the last great polymath was Leibniz, also considered one of the great Rationalists.
What I'm describing is his mondadology.
