He considers geometry the one genuine science so far created. Reasoning is of the nature of reckoning, and should start from definitions. But it is necessary to avoid self-contradictory notions in definitions, which is not usually done in philosophy. "Incorporeal substance," for instance, is nonsense. When it is objected that God is an incorporeal substance, Hobbes has two answers: first, that God is not an object of philosophy; second, that many philosophers have thought God corporeal.

Sınırını aşabilen tek canlı olarak insan; rehberliğe de ihtiyaç duyan tek canlı. Peki bu rehber ne? Biz neyi rehber alacağız? Bu konuda ortak bir nokta bulmakta zorlanıyoruz. Bana sorarsanız, 3.5 milyar yıldır içinde yoğrulduğumuz 'Tabiat' en güzel rehber. Yeryüzündeki bütün varlıklar birbirine bağlıdır, bir bütündür. Bu bütünün bir parçası olduğumuzu fark ettiğimzde yaşanan sorunların çözümü çok daha kolay olacaktır. Sinan Canan was born in Ankara in 1972. He graduated from Hacettepe University, Faculty of Science, Department of Biology. He has a masters degree in Ondokuz Mayıs University, Faculty of Medicine, Department of Histology-Embryology, and completed his Ph.D. in Department of Physiology. He organizes general audience-oriented conferences and programs about Chaos theory, Complexity, Fractal Geometry, Learning, Mind and Brain, Neuroscience Mental Performance, Creativity and Human Brain, Art and Neuroscience, Neuroscience, etc. across the country. He is author of 4 books and he is the chairman of the scientific committee at [n]Beyin. Besides being a faculty member in Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences at the University of Üsküdar, Department of Psychology, he is the Head of Master Program in Neuropsurgery. He continues his personal and institutional education studies with Brain Education and Consultancy Company opened in Istanbul in 2017. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
Bell’s arguments (Bell, 1964 and Bell, 1971) against local hidden variable theories proceed by means of inequalities; it is noted in (Koç, 1992) that in these arguments Bell does not consider the geometrical (or, algebraic) properties of the quantum mechanical correlation function (for a system of spin-1/2 particles in the singlet state). It is shown in (Koç, 1992) that, due to the geometry (or, algebraic properties) of the quantum mechanical correlation function, Bell’s arguments in (Bell, 1964 and Bell, 1971) are inconclusive. In addition to this, it is asserted in (Koç, forthcoming) that Wigner’s argument (Wigner, 1970) against local hidden variable theories is similarly inconclusive because of the geometrical (or, algebraic) properties of the quantum mechanical probability functions (for a system of spin-1/2 particles in the singlet state).

For example, Johannes Kepler inferred that the conception of an ellipse was the proper one to use in colligating the observed positions of the orbit of Mars; he thus discovered the law that ‘the orbit of Mars is elliptical’ and generalized it to ‘all orbital paths are elliptical’ (known now as Kepler’s first law). Kepler used the observations that had been made earlier by Tycho Brahe, yet neither Tycho nor anyone else had realized that the observations could be brought together using the conception of an ellipse. It was not an accident that Kepler was able to see this: his knowledge of mathematics, and especially geometry, was superb.
