In other words, something exists of which we are aware. We build a theory to explain it. The theory doesn't create or change the ontology of it, it just attempts to describe it. So, in a very real sense, isn't a theory just a metaphor that attempts to describe some ontology?

Start a thread and let's get this ball rolling.

Not so fast. Time is the term we use for the one ontology that seems obvious: the constancy of change. Assuming I can call the constancy of change an ontology.
The fact that we can relate one change to another and the results are totally consistent means that whatever is causing change is universal.
I'm kind of stuck right here and I'm not sure I really understand what I think I'm seeing.
