The article presents the philosophical views of Feliks Młynarski on the genesis of matter and mechanisms of evolution included in the unpublished dissertation entitled Philosophy of Cosmic Evolution. I argue that these views - contrary to the author’s declaration - are not a kind of ontological dualism, but one of the versions of panpsychism known as pan(proto)cosmic psychism, which is a form of monism.

W artykule zostały zaprezentowane poglądy filozoficzne Feliksa Młynarskiego na genezę materii i mechanizmy ewolucji zawarte w nieopublikowanej rozprawie zatytułowanej Filozofia ewolucji kosmicznej. Argumentuję, że poglądy te - wbrew deklaracji autora - nie są rodzajem dualizmu ontologicznego, ale jedną z wersji panpsychizmu znanej jako pan(proto)psychizm kosmiczny, który jest formą monizmu.

In the article I address the problem of the genesis of the monism-dualism opposition. I focus on showing the historical context in which this opposition appeared. First of all, I analyze the terminology related to this opposition. I show that due to the emancipation of philosophy from theology, certain terms that were used to present theological doctrines were adopted for the purposes of philosophical research. I present the transfer of this terminology from theology to philosophy and interpret dualism as a liminal concept.

Abstrakt: W artykule podejmuję problem genezy opozycji między monizmem a dualizmem. Skupiam się na ukazaniu kontekstu historycznego, w którym opozycja ta się pojawiła. Przede wszystkim analizuję terminologię związaną z tą opozycją. Pokazuję, że w związku z uniezależnieniem się filozofii od teologii pewne terminy, które były wykorzystywane do prezentacji doktryn teologicznych, zostały zaadaptowane do badań filozoficznych. Przedstawiam transfer terminologii z teologii do filozofii i interpretuję dualizm jako pojęcie liminalne.

In Paul Thagard’s article “Why Astrology Is a Pseudoscience”, we might find some demarcation criteria which are best used in determining whether certain fields with a lot of practitioners can be claimed to be pseudoscientific. Theory T for the pseudoscience club is if T has long been less progressive than its competitors and faces many more unsolved problems; and, adherents to T do not try to develop the theory to solve puzzles, do not attempt to evaluate T with respect to its alternatives, and are highly reserved and selective in seeking confirmation and falsification. Ten years later Thagard gave us new proposals. If T is a pseudoscience, then it is usually the case that (1) T is neither simple nor unified; the explanations, resources, (2) and predictions of T tend to be ad hoc, spurious, or ill-fitted to the rest of T; or, (3) adherents to T do not try to develop the theory to solve puzzles, do not attempt to evaluate T with respect to competitors, and (4) are highly reserved and selective in seeking confirmation and falsification. In this article, Paul Thagard’s criteria of demarcation are examined and evaluated from the point of view of the history of astrology.
