That is the whole point of my work. I am changing the meaning of some mutually agreed definitions by a paradigm-shift. This is a mutation of the old one by a new one. By the standard paradigm, each mathematical universe is a different game. By Hilbert's organic paradigm the mathematical science is a one organism where each organ is based on whole\parts relation and not on separated contexts.You are making up notations and generalization. That's the problem. If you want to communicate with someone, you have to use words with a mutually agreed definition.
The beautiful thing is that Hilbert himself is one of the main scholars how established the "game" of context dependent formalism:
"Formalism holds that mathematical statements may be thought of as statements about the consequences of certain string manipulation rules. For example, in the "game" of Euclidean geometry (which is seen as consisting of some strings called "axioms", and some "rules of inference" to generate new strings from given ones),..."
( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophy_of_mathematics )
Hilbert changed is mind (http://www.internationalskeptics.com/forums/showpost.php?p=3580353&postcount=300 ) after he realized what will happen to the mathematical science if it will be based on formalism (context dependent separate "games") and if the main establisher of formalism changed his mind about his own method, I think that we have to listen to him.
It is convenient to ignore the non-convenient isn't it PixyMisa?
That's backwards. A member is defined in terms of a collection. Without the context of the collection, a member is just any old object.
There is no forwards backwards here but a simultaneous collection\member relation that no one of them exists separately of the other as a researchable thing.
Again you understand parallel existence in terms of reductionism step-by-step thinking, which avoids any understanding of simultaneous whole\parts relations (the organic paradigm).
That's how sets are defined.
Yes I know, sets are defined because they are defined. Nice circular statement.
The concept is not the thing. You continually fail to grasp this.
You cannot know that unless {concept of thing, the thing itself} is the result of (simultaneous) whole\parts relations.
In other words PixyMisa you do not aware of the Researchable\Non-researchable complementation.
An axiom doesn't need to be self-evident
Anything that is deduced from another thing, cannot be considered as an axiom.

Let me put it this way:
There is a new game in the nationhood that its name is Evolution.
You maybe do not know but one of the main players of this game is called mutation.
An influence mutation is a fundamental change of currently existing thing, which may lead it to distinction or to development.
The context dependent paradigm is a convenient way to avoid the game of Evolution.
Any school of thought that avoids Evolution is nothing but another kind of religion, where religion is a game that avoids mutations (new points of view of already agreed terms).
I choose Evolution as the principle of the mathematical science.
It means that also my theory can be changed by a paradigm shift, because Evolution is the very nature of open systems, and in my opinion, Mathematics is an open system that can be changed by paradigm-shifts.
You may say that my premise of the mathematical science is also my conclusion.
I agree with you, but it is not circular because mutation is a built-in property of it which keeps it as an open method and an open method is not circular, by definition.
On the contrary, any method that avoids mutations as its built-in principle is closed and circular, by definition.
The essential is Evolution.
