110. However many steps I insert between the thought and its
application, each intermediate step always follows the previous one without any
intermediate link, and so too the application follows the last intermediate
step. – We can’t cross the bridge to the execution (of an order) until we are
there.
if there is a connection between a proposition described as a thought –
and a proposition described as its application
the connection is propositional –
that is you put forward a proposal relating the two descriptions –
you can’t cross the bridge until you propose
the bridge –
and if you have a mind to you can ‘insert’ proposals between the two –
that is to say further describe or explain the relationship
and yes you can describe
the application proposal as following ‘the last intermediate’ step / proposal –
any number of ways of looking at a propositional relation are possible –
it’s just a question of what you are doing and why
however there is no necessity in any of this –
any description – and any proposal relating descriptions – is open to
question – to doubt
we operate in propositional contingency –
the ground of all propositional action is uncertainty
