Chance, Love, and Logic · Charles S. Peirce
CONCLUSION
I have thus developed as well as I could in a little space the _synechistic_ philosophy, as applied to mind. I think that I have succeeded in making it clear that this doctrine gives room for explanations of many facts which without it are absolutely and hopelessly inexplicable; and further that it carries along with it the following doctrines: 1st, a logical realism of the most pronounced type; 2nd, objective idealism; 3rd, tychism, with its consequent thoroughgoing evolutionism. We also notice that the doctrine presents no hindrances to spiritual influences, such as some philosophies are felt to do. Footnote 61: _The Monist_, July, 1892. Footnote 62: This proposition is substantially the same as a theorem of Cantor, though it is enunciated in a much more general form.
