Turtles all the way down

"A turtle is moving all the way" is a humorous representation of the infinite regression problem in cosmology, which is a paradox of "indifferent mover". The metaphor of this anecdote represents a general notion that the earth is actually flat and supported by the underside of the world's sea turtle. I doubt where the last turtle stands, this is a humorous conclusion that "tortoises are prevalent".

This expression is an illustration of the concept of Anabasta in Indian philosophy and refers to the defect of infinite regression in every philosophical argument. Contrary to most existing Western literature, it is not a popular Hindu faith. To put it more precisely, it is a widely accepted principle in Indian philosophy and is often used to dismiss the Creator God and "indifferent promoters" claims.

This sentence was known at least in the early 20th century. A similar metaphor describing the cause and consequences of cycles of the same problem is "chicken and egg problems". The same problem in epistemology is called Milenhausen's trilemma. (Turtle goes down all the way - Wikipedia)

Refining all these anecdotes and stories makes the beginning of trying to find something useless. Scientists may be satisfied with the conclusion that the universe began in the big bang, but I am not satisfied that the big bang is the limited beginning.

In all contemporary contexts, "turtles are down" is mentioned. For example, "Turtles All the Way Down" is the name of a song by country artist Sturgill Simpson of 2014 country music album "Metamodern Sounds in Country Music". Turtles All The Way Down is also a title of John Green's 2017 novel about a girl with obsessive compulsive disorder. Famous scientists (such as Bertrand Russell) are giving public lectures on astronomy. He explained how the earth orbits the sun and how the sun goes around the center of numerous stars known as the Milky Way. At the end of the lecture, an old lady behind the room stood up and said, "You say that it is garbage, the world is actually a flat plate that is supported behind a huge turtle." Science He replied. Where is it? "You are smart, young, very smart," the old lady said.

John the Turtles, Green John Turtles offers a wondrous and fun adventure with an attractive combination of high school episode lines that frequently appear in John Green's books. The novel is spoken through the eyes of Aza suffering from anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder. When a strange businessman disappeared, Aza and her friend Daisy started acting in hopes of receiving a reward of 100,000 dollars. In the process of understanding what happened, Aza must make use of the world of friends and boy's plays and strive to improve her mental health. The end result is an interesting, sometimes sad story that is worth reading. - Kayla Tuchman, grade 2018

Turtle was under review - the new book turtle of our star-story writer John Green has been going to follow Aza Holmes to live with OCD. Self-discovery like this roller coaster, treasure hunt, big lizards and star wars novels have lessons of inner and solid life. #BookTube #BookTuber
