We should not discuss the problem on multiple factors, but should examine the first reason (first principle) and find the logical singularity of the problem.
1, investigate the first reason.
In today's society, we will inevitably receive a lot of information every day. If we accept all the information at once, it may not help. We need to sort out this information, so as to form our own views, opinions or systematic ways of thinking.
Therefore, this requires us to have the ability of abstract thinking. Regarding abstract thinking, a large number of philosophers have discussed special judgments and full-name judgments similar to abstract thinking before. Special judgment refers to a specific thing, such as a black Huawei mate 30 5g mobile phone. Full name judgment is an abstraction of this thing. The specific model of mobile phone belongs to the category of mobile phone. To further abstract a level, mobile phones belong to a kind of electrical appliances.
This simple abstraction of the problem layer by layer is actually the simplest way for us to use logic. Concrete things in abstract life, such as horses, are an abstraction. In our daily life, we can only see a specific white horse, Huang Ma or dark horse, and then we can abstract animals. Horses belong to an animal.
The higher the degree of abstraction, the deeper the thinking. But if it's for Aristotle, it's not what he wants. He wants to discuss the first principles of things. As the name implies, there is only one, so it will not involve causality. This way of thinking is higher than the level of abstract thinking. Abstract thinking may allow multiple concepts to exist, but the first principle only allows a starting point.
2. Looking for logical singularities
Take logical singularities as an example. This year, due to the epidemic, we all have our own hygiene rules. Students in Shenzhen don't know if they have found it. In the past, the small program of health code was called "I Shenzhen": Love Shenzhen. The implication may be that Shenzhen is a passive existence, and you migrant workers need to cherish and cherish this city.
Then one day, I opened the health code applet and suddenly found that it became "I love you deeply": Shenzhen loves you. At this time, Shenzhen, giving people a feeling of gorgeous turn, has become a warm habitat, from the original cold to amiable.
The most classic case about logical singularity is the establishment of non-Euclidean geometry building. The default premise is that points, lines and faces all belong to planes, so it is also called plane geometry. Riemann constructs Riemann geometry from different starting points, and the starting point is changed to a surface. In plane geometry, the sum of three internal angles of a triangle is equal to 180 degrees, but in Riemannian geometry, the sum of triangles is greater than 180 degrees. Einstein proposed space bending according to Riemannian geometry.
Any system must have an implicit premise assumption, which may be the basis of all its logic. Finding this foundation and establishing a new foundation will form a new system, which is probably the most effective subversion of the original system.
