Axiom 0 is defined as - there is a predicate, P, such that, for any x that
is, x is P.
Jud:
Axiom 0 is flawed and will never work. It would never operate or be
acceptable as an all inclusive philosophical axiom or substitute language.
Why?
Because philosophy is spit into two irreconcilable warring camps.
(1) The Trannies, which include the religious folk, non-religious trannies
and the suicide bomber folk
whose *any X* category includes exes that don’t actually exist.
and
(2) The Non-Trannies [materialists] who hold that only material exes exist.
REGARDING NON-RELIGIOUS TRANNIES.
Non-religious trannies, though, different from theologians, are actually
quite similar . They tend to view *natural law* as a set of principles so
powerful, whatever their origin, as to be self-evident to any rational person. In
short, transcendental views are fundamentally the same whether God is invoked
or not.
The latest results of The Ontological Poll which give you an idea of the
characteristics of that fundamental split can be seen below.

“The greatest of all the spirit’s task is to produce a worldview.
The reconstruction of our age can begin only with a reconstruction
of its theory of the universe. There is hardly anything more urgent
in its claim on us than this which seems to be so far off and abstract.”
-From The Philosophy of Civilization by Albert Schweitzer
