| Long abstract | It is perfectly possible to defy the law of noncontradiction. Like Humpty Dumpty, we should try to believe at least six impossible things before breakfast. It is cognitively healthy and ontologi-cally accurate. Indeed, to say You can’t think impossible things is, curiously, to have thought impossible things (Priest 2014)! Within normative Western logics, contradiction is perceived to be either evil or absurd, or some combination of both. But contradiction is everywhere, and it leaks out the strongest when we try to lock it down the strongest. I take this to be a symp-tom of reality, which I take to be contradictory. In particular, ecological reality is contradictory, and if we humans want to go about “saving,” “preserving” or as I’d prefer to say, curating it, we had better allow some things to contradict themselves or else. |
