Refinement of ideas:
My theory is a theory of animation (the soul of life), my thoery says that this animating force is incomplete in our understanding, but complete in the form of a metaphysical construct I call the process of beauty becoming more beautiful (or freedom becoming free'er). Epistimological pluralism means this beauty I construct is a dynamic thing, its something that always allows for growth, because in a static state it is never complete, there is always something else which can make it more beautiful, beautiful is what is really infinite. Thats how we get the concept infinity, from our asthetic sensibility. Beauty is the root of infinity, thats how asthetics fits into mathematics... which isnt very well.
This allows us see the difference between my perspective and the scientific perspective. The scientific perspective is commanding as logic (if you accept its premises) offers a static model that gives hard answers. My perspective appeals to an asthetic valuation, which impels us, which motivates or animates our actions. Now that I have discerned these factors that inform our motive, we can maybe transcend beauty, but I dont want to. I just want to live in a beautiful bustling growing world, thats becoming more beautiful, thats the realm we inhabit, and in some ways its much more interesting and certainly more beautiful than the world rationalism would dictate to us. So we are as free as beauty is still incomplete, we are still growig into it, and it will always be incomplete, so we will always be free, but to stay free, so we can grow and be more beautiful, we must overcome danger (the persisting threat, or shadow of freedom). We can probably never be rid completely of danger, danger is external limitation, or external constraint, although we have become consciouss and internalised and overcome a lot of our causes, danger is still a constraint we cannot fully escape, but the more danger we escape the more free we can truly be... now im getting vaguer.
