Charles Sanders Peirce has inspired me to 

understand values as ontological 

and tied to human will. 

Charles Sanders Peirce has encouraged me to

 herald the death of culture religion  (see Barth)  

and its evolution into a global spirituality 

based on values - 

lived in the immanent frame.
Charles Sanders Peirce has inspired me to 

wonder about my past 

as his family arrived in Watertown, MA, 

at about the same time  my ancestor 

Captain Hugh Mason settled there (1639) 

and I share many traits that have been 

ascribed to CSP and have had 

a “career” similar in some respects to his. 

Charles Sanders Peirce saw through things 

and was plain in his description of what he saw. 

Those who find him obscure 

may have vision problems 

or not. 

It depends on your philosophy.

The ontological place of Will in Triadic Philosophy

Will is central to Triadic Philosophy This is hardly an original notion Great thinkers have always recognized will Will is the engine of action the impulse to create the very life force of all humanity Everything we do is the result  of our possessing will Ontology means being  Within Triadic Philosophy  Ontology is central Every key word within the simple powerful structure of Triadic Philosophy  is ontological Every word conveys the way things are Words like circus rabbits virtue even justice are not in themselvcs ontological But 'will' is With no need for modification  will stands tall within Reality Will has a close companion within Reality Freedom Freedom within Triadic Philosophy is the power to choose among values It is also the power to refuse This is why the ultimate evil  is to consciously kill another and why all grades of harm are grades of evil All evil is a frontal attack  on the  very source of human dignity All evil is a blow at holiness  All evil is a denial of the preciousness of humankind To foreclose freedom  and deny the exercise of will is the substance of the evil that the Triadic Philosopher seeks daily deliverance from
The place of will in Triadic Philosophy is in the realm of Reality 
The aim of Triadic Philosophy is that all people become conscious actors engaging in freely willed acts of helpfulness tolerance democracy and non-idolatry These are the values that are  - like freedom and will - ontological

When a value is ontological

When a value is ontological it is built into the very fabric of whatever destiny we deduce or infer the universe to have. Thus a realistic philosophy will - in my declension of it - assign being to the one we call by many names but who refused to give a name to Moses. Jesus's name for this one is Abba. And to say that a value is ontological is to argue that it's reality permeates the universe, and also that - because it is an ascription of worth and because we have an element of free will - we must activate this value within us for it to begin to take effect.

What does ontological mean?

Ontological means to me the starting point of all thought, all philosophy. It means the realm of being beyond whose surface we cannot see. Some call it being. Some logic. By any name it is the without-which-nothing. And it is also the one we cannot claim to comprehend fully. It is the penumbra around our immanent frame. And it is my contention that within this being lie values that are an inherent and universal aspect of what it means to be human.
