For example, when logical philosophy asserts that “true meaning is a verifiable hypothesis,” it must recognize that this very statement is meaningless if unverifiable. Similarly, when it insists that the only realities are those “facts” which are elicited in “scientific observation,” it must recognize that it cannot, and does not, answer the question “What is a fact?” If we say that “facts” or “things” are the segments of experience symbolized by nouns, we are merely shifting the irreducible element of nonsense in our definition from “fact” to “experience.”
