Project Sinos Part III: The Laws of Sinosity






What is, is. What is not, is not. It makes no difference what one believes.



This simply means that the Truth remains constant, regardless of one's belief in it. That which is of the Truth will always be of the Truth, regardless of what anyone believes about it. This is a definition of the Absolute of Truth.


A thing is as it is, and that is all that it is. It is nothing more; it is nothing less.



A thing is that which it is. It may or may not be what it appears to be. It doesn't matter how much a person believes that a given thing is something else, that thing will not change from what it is.


The semblance of a thing does not equate to that thing.



Just because X does not mean Y. Just because a thing seems to be something else does not mean that it is that something else. Just because a person seems to be an idiot does not, in any way, mean that said person is, in fact, an idiot.


If a thing can be defined, then it is real. Just because a thing cannot be defined does not mean that it is not real.



Anything that can be defined is real, whether in and of itself or as a compilation of various other definitions. A cat can be defined and is real. A dragon can be defined, but it alone is not real, but each component of the animal is from something real. Our minds cannot make things up. We are limited to what we have seen (or a combination of things we have seen).

Something that is not real cannot be defined. One can imagine that there are other colors in the world, but he cannot perceive them. Thus, colors beyond the spectrum of the rainbow may or may not exist. Thus, we cannot rule them out, but those things that we can define are real by all means.
