Today added to the site is a new article defending five core Epicurean positions on the nature of the universe.
The usual way to dismiss Epicurean physics is to list what Epicurus got wrong by modern standards: the size of the sun, the Big Bang, quantum theory, optics. That approach misreads what Epicurean physics is doing. Epicurus said plainly that many questions of detail could not be settled with the evidence available in his day, and that several explanations should be kept open.
The article argues that each of the five core claims is a logical claim about what must be true, not a primitive guess. Modern science confirms the Epicurean framework rather than refuting it.
The article can be read at the link below or by opening the "Physics Analysis" menu in the left navigation sidebar.
