Cladistics is actually a direct circular confirmation of one's own classification of biological organisms into species, and classification of species into classes of species, by repeating the classification backwards. It ends with whatever one assumes at the beginning.
The cladistic idea that this paranoic procedure can end in a single True Tree of Life is just as impossible as that subjectivity would equal objectivity. If this would have been possible, then there would have been no difference between subjectivity and objectivity, and thus no difference between right and wrong. It would actually have meant that everything is true, like what Kuhn appears to be saying. If this would have been true, then Kuhn and cladistics would have been both right and wrong at the same time. Luckily, both Kuhn and cladistics are ONLY wrong. Their error resides in that they equal difference with similarity, when difference is real whereas similarity is abstract, and thus that ONLY difference is real. Subjectivity thus can't equal objectivity, because subjectivity acknowledges similarity, which is artificial, whereas objectivity acknowledges difference, which is real.
The cladistic axiom that subjectivity can equal objectivity (i.e., that there is a single Tree of Life to be found) is thus ONLY wrong. This idea is actually a direct circular confirmation of one's own classification of biological organisms into species, and classification of species into classes of species, by repeating the classification backwards. The axiom is actually a paranoic (i.e., circular) typological reasoning in tself, and wrong.
