On Methodology

Abstract

The sub sumption of theory under practice that resulted from the Christian mix of Judaism and paganism makes room for a future oriented understanding of time. Time began, and it will end. Actually, post-humanist theorists have argued that time has already ended. They call it “the end of history” Such a statement frontally contradicts the feminine understanding of life. Theories may end, life never ends. Theories are always weaker than practice. Taking into account with utmost seriousness the theoretical possibility of an end of “history” this chapter shows why and to what extent such a theoretical approach to time is refuted a priori by the feminine practical approach of life.
