They are connected with (1) the limitation of the universe in respect of space and time, (2) the theory that the whole consists of indivisible atoms (whereas, in fact, none such exist), (3) the problem of free will in relation to universal causality, and (4) the existence of a necessary being.[1] The first two antinomies are dubbed "mathematical" antinomies, presumably because in each case we are concerned with the relation between what are alleged to be sensible objects (either the world itself, or objects in it) and space and time. The mathematical antinomies[edit] The first antinomy (of space and time)[edit] The second antinomy (of atomism)[edit] The dynamical antinomies[edit] The third antinomy (of spontaneity and causal determinism)[edit] The fourth antinomy (of necessary being or not)[edit] ./cache/en-wikipedia-org-355.html ./txt/en-wikipedia-org-355.txt
