On pages 55-56, McInerny says that "When we look at two things for the purpose of comparing them, we can discover that they are either completely alike, completely unlike, or a combination of likeness and unlikeness."
How true is this statement?
He goes on to clarify that no two things can be so alike that they cease to be two things, or that no two things can be so unlike each other that they do not share the elemental act of existence.
Therefore, can we ever actually reach a state where two things are completely alike or completely unlike, or in reality is everything merely a combination of likeness and unlikeness?
