Neither Language Nor Psychology Affect Logic
So argues Peirce and there is no reason for Triadic Philosophy to think differently. The root triad Reality, Ethics, Aesthetics does not suffer by being translated into another language. And the notion that psychology somehow trumps the logic of Triadic Philosophy is false. Indeed, we stand against all forms of characterization. We defend the inherent freedom of any person to choose values that lead to acts and expressions of ontological significance.
The premises of Triadic Philosophy should be shared in every language. Tolerance, helpfulness and democracy should be taught to every person. All should embrace non-idolatry, truth and beauty.
And any language should be able to convey the logical, reasonable and wise. We need translators who understand the original language and its senses. But, that said, the more translations the better.
As to psychology, it has morphed from Freud to neuropathy and pharmacalogy. Its methods and diagnostic proclivities are jaw-dropping. We defend the capacities of the person to fashion answers and approaches out of innate freedom and access to inner spiritual resources. Remove the dignity of such choices at great peril.
Affirm the most advanced methods, medications and procedures. No medical Luddites allowed. Still, we are our best doctors. Our fates need not be binding or fixed.
Logic is healing. It tends toward the positive. Somewhere out there entropy is trumped by syntropy and triadic conclusions reign.

70. It seems to me, then, that appeals to language can serve no other purpose than as most inadequate and deceptive evidence of psychological necessities or tendencies; and these psychological necessities and tendencies, after they are ascertained, are utterly useless for the investigation of logical questions.
