Can you explain what you mean here? I mean yes there’s a universe so it can be see as a unit. There’s also quantum mechanics, telling us we can only distinguish discrete objects at the bottom of the scale. Can you give an example of a non-human distinction, or explain what you mean by that concept?

FWIW my use of the phrase "human distinction" was merely for emphasis: I make no claims about non-humans.

In any case, any distinction I have interest in or speak of would be human, whether made by a human or otherwise.

Yes. It was a parody of yunwal's post (which I possibly should have cc'ed). . Reread yunwai's post and mine together and you will understand.

Endless "unity...discrete" discussions have arisen in both science and philosophy since the beginning.

I assume the post is missing its "/s".
