On Infinite Things

The thing I notice about infinite anything is that it affects everything else, until the total quantity of things reaches infinity, at which point it becomes less pronounced.

So, for example, if there are infinite things, but only one of them is infinite in value, then there is an appearance of ignoring that infinite thing, but really the infinite thing is almost everything there is in that world.

However, if everything in the world is infinite, then it will be very hard to find the influence of just one of those infinite things.

However, it is easier to find the influence of infinite things than the influence of things that are not infinite, even if everything is infinite.

SUMMARY UNDERSTANDING OF LEIBNIZ'S MONADOLOGY

Logic (which Leibniz calls reasonable things, but which I call systems), is infallible so far
as it truly demonstrates logic. Facts, on the other hand, are irreducible only becuase there
is an infinite conitngency extending from it to other facts. Where logic is contingent, it
is not perfect. Where facts relate to logic, they are provable, but only because their parts
may be understood to be reducible. In a sense, because their parts are infinite.

If everything is perfect, then if there is an experience of everything, it may be called
God and it exists.

There is relatively little difference between God and the imitations of God, because so far
as lesser things go, greater things are the closest thing to becoming God. In this way, lesser
things can be greater things by providing a path for the simpler constitutions.

Beings act in pleasure-modules, so that the imperfect identity is a realization about the
ultimate purpose of the module, seen as it were, objectively. Thus, in terms of causes,
there is nothing undesirable that does not serve some efficient purpose.

Besides this,

He places limitations and appears to assume that power is only one thing.
