2017 Architectonic
I wrote the original architectonic to structure and order the entirety of my philosophical beliefs. There is also have a grander goal of structuring and ordering the entirety of philosophical thought by encapsulating every thought concept into an outline. An architectonic. It's not easy, there are a lot of concepts that are similar or overlap and for every positive concept there is also a negative concept that might be left out of an outline like this. I updated it periodically for a couple of years but for the most part the list of new concepts that were not integrated grew larger and larger while the architectonic improved much more slower rate (albeit it did improve quite a bit). I have decided that a new architectonic is in order so I have archived the original post and begun a new one here. The primary change is deepening the hierarchy by introducing an extra level. I hope this will capture more concepts more succinctly and with more clarity.
