Descartes triangle

[Mixcoatl]

He said that even if you took every triangle out of the universe, the properties of triangles would still exist.

They don't need an actual triangle to be true. They don't even need a mind to exist.

That's amazing to me, because in a sense, it suggests that potentiality and actuality are the same thing.

No, you need a mind to exist and you need that Mind to imagine triangles correctly. A deluded mind will imagine a crooked triangle.

Descartes logic only works because he is the Mind imagining triangles.

How can a property of an actual finite thing be actual outside of an actual universe or experience?

I tried to imagine a triangle property written in the nothing but imagination is needed. 🤔 

I have the feeling that triangle properties are eternal but at the same time I need to imagine them.

A raccoon's butthole is also Eternal.

Everything is Eternal, so this means little.
