It is suggested that terms employed such as "innately incomplete" are redundant in description- i.e.- "flats are innately flat"-a curved dwelling would not be suitable for habitation, it is similarly very difficult to find other words to speak of the notion of science as incomplete. date: 2007-07 date_type: published refereed: FALSE referencetext: 1) Russell, Bertrand, My Philosophical Development 1959, Simon and Schuster NYC 2) Russell, Bertrand , The Problems of Philosophy 1997 Oxford university Press 3) Russell, Bertrand, Whitehead, Alfred North, Principia Mathematica , second edition Cambridge University Press 1962 4) Kirsh, M.E.
