7. Existence / E. Categories / 4. Category Realism
Ontology aims to give the fundamental categories of being [Heil]
     Full Idea: The task of ontology is to spell out the fundamental categories of being.
     From: John Heil (The Universe as We Find It [2012], 02.5)
     A reaction: This is the aspiration of 'pure' metaphysics, which I don't quite believe in. There is too much convention involved, on the one hand, and physics on the other.
