I've always thought "I think therefore I am" was backwards too, though I now think "I am therefore I am" or rather "This is therefore this is" seem more accurate than the direct inverse.

Yeah, rereading it, I don't think the direct inverse really works. Do rocks think? Maybe, but if they do, its probably not to the point where they ask questions. Or maybe they do... Or maybe the lack of questions implies a lack of existence... Or maybe I'm taking it too far ๐
Or maybe I'm not taking too far ๐ค... The Greeks categorized rocks as thanatos... Thanatos, bios, and zoe. And the kairos! Ignition, striking while the iron is hot, the spark that makes the bios tick. I f'n love the Greeks.
