Simply encoded in different words. The more I learn the more I realize how the same fundamental concepts are simply expressed in different manners. Two individuals studying two quite different fields end up through much specialized study learning how to say the same thing with different sets of words, and yet couldn't say the same thing in the other manner themselves.

So much is simply an analogy for so much else. The essence of so many things is shared even when they are encoded with such disparate specialized lexicons. I so commonly find myself learning to say something I already knew how to say with other words.

noticing homology is a high level of thinking? I could do that when i was 10. Anyone who is antiquated with the categorization of living things probably can think that way early on. Maybe you are speaking nominally of homology in philosophies, that doesnt matter only the reality of drawing homologies does. just a matter of time before you know enough to notice.

Anon just because you reached that state of mind, doesn't mean everyone else will. You overestimate the general population's mental capability.
