Honestly, it takes this guy 50 pages of confusing, bullshit to basically say this one line !!! and you would think reading all those pages would be ENOUGH to get you to this conclusion, but NO !!! it takes hours of discussion to get to this crap !!!! Seriously, just because someone has an amazing idea does not mean we should not question his/her writing strategies !
Ws make Xs become Ys to Z
This is a template Aristotle brings to the investigation of nature. We make sense of some type of natural phenomena when we identify all four and see them as (so to speak) different manifestations of a single TYPE. In this way, all of our Ws, Xs, Ys, and Zs come to the same thing. When these series of events start from W, Z is in mind as an end and the sequence is not one brought about by chance, but rather for a cause generating the movement. The four causes to be identified in the investigation of nature of things are:
1. Material cause (Xs)
2. Formal cause (transition from Xs to Ys)
3. Efficient cause (Ws)
4. Final cause (Zs)
