Best Answer

A clade consists of a set of entities, which is an instance of a class. It means that it is contradictory between entity and class, and thus that it is a contradiction, that is, a paradox (actually Russell's paradox). Those that believe that such paradoxes (fundamentally classes) are real are called "cladists".

What does a clade consist of?

The concept clade is commonly defined as "an ancestor and all its descendants.However, this definition states that the concept terms a class (i.e., clade) of a kind of set (i.e., common ancestors and all their descendants), meaning that the concept corresponds to the concept "infinite set" in set theory, and thus also corresponds to the conceptual contradiction that in logic is known as "Russell's paradox". It means that the concept clade actually terms a contradictory abstraction, that is, a paradox. This fact may be difficult to understand, since it means that the class has a solution for each and everyone, that is, subjective solutions for each and everyone, but lacks a single non-contradictory (unambiguous, or objective) solution per definition. Fact is thus, however, that the concept terms a subjective illusion (dream), i.e., "objective subjectivity".
