This leads me to consider the existence of '-ism' as the absence of imagination and logic. And to see '-ism' as the presence of ends. In separating biology and semiotics '-ism' is in the domain of biology while imagination and logic firmly float in semiotics. This essay assists in appreciation that survival is semiotics and nature without '-ism's. Nature is a free mind, unaligned but ruled conscious and responsive to balance.
