Perhaps an object model of though would provide some insight.
What is the core object? Fact? Word? A Truth? I think I'm using a fact weighted by faith in that fact.
[11/20/2005 That's a good question. I still don't have an answer. I know at some point whatever structure is used should be capable of containing a phrase which constitutes a single idea. Perhaps "Idea" is the root object. (It's good that we don't have to mess with sensory information!) I'm only modeling thought and communication.
The drawing above is pretty useless… doesn't say much. The comment about comparing facts to augment faith is also useless. I wonder if I should introduce a drive to find similarities that will surpass the desire to be factual. (modeling the behavior of astronomers who are looking so hard for another planet with life that they think they see life everywhere … or the religious devout who see/feel/hear God.
cept = idea = concept. A concept can be as simple as a letter or as complex as a phrase. If it is a sentence it should be short and must embody a single modular concept.
So what defines the modularity of a concept? If parts of it can be stripped away and applied to another cept in some analogous way, then the stripped version is stored as a cept.]
