tychism การใช้
- Peirce elsewhere argues ( 1897 ) that logic's presupposition of fallibilism leads at length to the view that chance and continuity are very real ( tychism and synechism ).
- This evolutionary aspect of tychism compels Peirce to expand Darwin's view to a cosmological level, sending its operations back to the origin of the universe under the regulative principle of his synechism.
- On the other hand the mere propositions that absolute chance, mechanical necessity, and the law of love are severally operative in the cosmos may receive the names of " tychism ", " anancism ", and " agapism " . " C . S . Peirce, 1893
- Peirce rejected this idea, pointing out that energy conservation, like other laws of classical physics, is Darwin he points out that the fundamental driver of his theory is accidental variation, noting that " Darwinian evolution is evolution by the operation of chance, and the destruction of bad results . " Even the catastrophism of Clarence King and others, which postulates an acceleration in evolutionary change via sudden environmental dislocations, naturally falls under the rubric of tychism.
