What is the difference between absolute, contingent and relative identity?
KantDane21 2022-04-18
in terms of Leibniz principle of indiscernibles?
if we state there is a "connection" between two things (A resembles B, or "A stands for B") I assume this is a relative identity?
If we say A is B, this is an absolute identity (conforming to Ls principle)?
