It is an important basis of ontology to explain clearly what the subjective world contains. Frege and other Western philosophers were seriously wrong about concepts and the foundations of mathematics. The simulation is to mimic something with a fake product. People's knowledge about the world is also a kind of simulation. The content of knowledge is fake product relative to the object. The difference between people's knowledge and the object that is simulated can be made on purpose. The altered knowledge doesn't necessarily have real object corresponding to it. These thought games can bring about more value of knowledge and benefit in practice. The civilization and culture of human being mainly come from the innovative thought games. The logical construct of sentences describing something is a simulation of the thing or thought game. A symbol is a substance used to create an association in mind. Logical constructs have three advantages compared with real things: simple, useful, and stable. The concept is the logical construct produced after abstraction of things. Different degrees of abstraction can produce different degrees of concept. Abstract concepts of most disciplines retain more attributes, so they are not easy to analyze and study. The concepts of numbers and points, lines, planes and bodies are the results that retain few attributes after abstraction, which are simpler than concepts of other disciplines and easier to analyze and study.

 is deeper than Kant and Hegel. Objective Idealists believe that only things that are objective and true can be immutable, so they insist on saying that logical constructs are objective and true.

Some subjective things are stable and some are unstable, some objective things are stable and some are unstable. Humans need something stable, so they made up a lot of concepts and theorems. Humans have the ability to make stable things, then science was born. There are a lot of order things in civilization and culture that are stable things people made. They can be passed down from generation to generation. Who can say they are not stable if they can be passed down from generation to generation? On the contrary, many objective things are unstable. For example, the amount of water in a river varies from year to year, or even from day to day. You cannot step twice into the same river.

Objective Idealists arbitrarily assume that only objective things are stable, and subjective things must be unstable. So they treat stable subjective things as objective things. That's how Plato's Theory of Ideas came about. What's more, Plato thought that only stable things are real, unstable things are not real, so he believed unstable things in the objective world are not real. Heidegger said, "To Being, therefore, seen Platonically, permanence belongs. All that becomes and suffers alteration, as impermanent, has no Being."[3] If all that changes are false, then the son of a judge must be a judge, and the son of a thief must be a thief. If the son of a thief becomes a judge, he must be in pretence.

3. The Evolution of Logical Constructs

The concrete things in the subjective world is different from the concrete things in the objective world. Every concrete thing in the objective world has infinite number of properties, while the concrete thing in the subjective world contains only a finite number of properties, it is a logical construct. The more process people make on the logical construct, the more properties it contains. For example, the role of white snake in
