COMPARISONS

COMPARING LIVES Each life is uniquely suited for, and specially arises from, its own situs in time and space. As such, that life is exactly comparable to no other life, due to these unique geospatial temporal differences that subsist, or exist between them. If this fact is true within contemporaries, it is more so especially true for those of earlier eras, no matter how distant. Thus comparing men to men and women to women is at best risky. At worst, such comparisons are fanciful, illusory, delusory, or vain. Human life is dynamic. It is not static, like chess pieces, nor like geometric propositions involving magnitudes, multitudes and ratio comparisons, as demonstrated in EUCLID'S ELEMENTS, Bk. 5, Prop. 24.
