Discussion Post: Reality
Not only does the greek word kosmos (cosmos) mean "reality", it also has the connotation of an ordered and beautiful system. Pre-Socratic philosophers examined reality in an effort to show it as an ordered and beautiful system despite the fact that the world often seems chaotic to us. What do you make of this effort? Do you believe there is evidence to show that the world is fundamentally a place of order and beauty?
