I 309
Force/Causality/Cause/Effect: Causal processes contain states of representation as causes or effects.
>Representation, >Cause, >Effect, >Causality, >Judgments.
We evaluate a causal process as an action only if the effect is not only caused by the representation but makes the representation true at the same time.
>Truth makers.
I 310
Causality takes place only between material states.
"Make true"/Danto: Causality is always material, representation is made true, embodied.
Idealist: is just as right: if no representations were embodied, we would be purely physical systems.
Truth becomes a causal force, so to speak. The way we represent the world becomes a factor of the way the world is.
>World/thinking, >World, >Reality.
