Naturalism

A meta-spatial (metaphysical) line.

Phenology in which the void of nihilism (intersubjectivity) represents a line connecting value and meaning.

(Value-meaning is termed "sentiment.")
Naturalism is the ontological line of sentiment. It demonstrates that aesthetics must follow sentiment (aesthetic imperative).

Naturalism (line) is one of three ontological objects including nihilism (space) and liminism (point).

In metaphysical naturalism, nothing is supernatural: ghosts, gods, and fairies are natural or don't exist.

methodological naturalism

The philosophy that natural phenomena should be explained with naturalistic explanations when doing science.

In contrast with metaphysical naturalism, it does not commit one to ruling out the existence of the supernatural.
Science without methodological naturalism would accept astrology as a field of science.

Dynamic Naturalism

A philosophical stance that understands nature as fundamentally processual, historical, and creative—not a fixed order of timeless laws but an ongoing unfolding of novel forms, structures, and possibilities. Dynamic naturalism rejects both supernaturalism (explanations outside nature) and static mechanism (nature as clockwork), insisting that nature itself is the source of all the change, complexity, and creativity we observe. Evolution is not a deviation from natural order but its core expression; emergence is not mystery but nature's normal mode of operation; novelty is not illusion but what nature constantly produces. Dynamic naturalism is what you get when you take nature seriously enough to include its history, its creativity, and its open-endedness in your understanding of what nature is.
Example: "His Dynamic Naturalism meant he couldn't accept explanations that invoked external designers or static laws—nature was creative enough to produce everything he saw, given enough time and the right conditions."

Dynamist Naturalism

A philosophical framework emphasizing the active, creative potential inherent in nature—the dynamis or power of natural systems to generate novelty, complexity, and organization from within themselves. Dynamist naturalism holds that nature doesn't just change (passively responding to external forces) but creates—bringing forth genuinely new forms, structures, and possibilities through its own internal dynamics. Evolution is not just adaptation but invention; emergence is not just complication but genuine novelty; history is not just sequence but the unfolding of nature's creative potential. The dynamist naturalist sees a universe that is not just lawful but generative, not just ordered but ordering, not just structured but structuring.
Example: "Where others saw only random variation and selection, his Dynamist Naturalism saw nature's creativity—the universe's capacity to generate genuinely new possibilities from its own material."
