No, it is not.

Seeing merely requires one's senses.

Rational thought requires both the senses and some rudimentary grasp of causation.

Physical phenomena are ALWAYS explainable through mathematics. That is the reason why the laws of physics are demonstrated through mathematical equations. Pure mathematics is NOT an EMPIRICAL form of inquiry. It exists in the world of IDEAS.

So, you do not consider this a DUALITY in all things material, hmmm?

The validity of an idea, especially one that is abstract, rests on its LOGIC.

And society, like everything, has an inherent DUALITY.

So, whether you like it or not, you simply cannot dismiss duality. Either it operates in everything, or it not at all.
