I found the word order in a Holly Bush I used the Bing Vision application on my Nokia Lumia camera, it has the ability to scan text in any language and then translate it into any other language, perfect for those holiday signposts abroad, or complex menus etc. I decided to test it for the first time, not on a sign with a recognisable language, rather I tried it on a Holly bush and Fern tree and I found that the application using the camera lens identified various shapes that were accurate enough to be identified as Chinese language characters - one of the words was Order, when I translated the shape/letter in Chinese into English. This bought up the questions about innateness in nature to me, which is the question that asks if there is intent or a priori mechanics or plans that were predetermined before the creation of an object in existence, a quintessence. The Platonists would say that upon the discovery of the word order in a Holly bush, that I was during the moment of discovery, recollecting and recalling the form of the word order in Chinese from the abstract complexity of the Holly bush, meaning that language is innate and learned from another source external to humanity. On the existential side of things however, we can say that the language could not be identified without the eye, lens or program to recognise the langauge that has been created through evolution and that our minds are so powerful that we not only confuse the measurement with the object, we also look for a prior plan made by a divine creator who placed the word order into a Holly bush for me to discover at that moment and therefore can also come up with the belief that i am the chosen one by God to convey this message of innateness to the people! Which perspective do you think is correct and what are the implications to this? #philosophy #spirituality #existentialism #recollection #Plato #langauge #video
