  • On Heidegger's "The origin of the work of art" and aesthetics


    The goal of art is to induce emotions in the audience. This can be love, hate, awe, disgust, etc. With that in mind, when the brain creates memory, in our day to day life, sensory input is given an emotional tag by aspects of the limbic system, as it is written to the cerebral matter. Our memories have both sensory content plus emotional tagging. Because of this duality, we can trigger our memory from either side; content side or emotional side.

    For example, if I feel the emotion of hunger, images of food; content, will appear in my mind. If I think of my favorite food; content, I can start to feel hunger; emotion.

    Art tries to induce emotion, while the emotions induced, will trigger memory content, already in the brain of the audience, that is connected to this emotion. It can be different for each person, unless they are told what to think.

    For example, the golden calf of the bible, was a work of art, made of gold, that may have been expertly crafted. This art object may have induced feelings of awe, respect, beauty, value, etc.. This complex emotional induction will then induce memory content with these tags in the audience. One possible way to express all these mixed feelings, would be a personal image of the divine; god, already stored in the brain. This was later called idol worship, if one was unconscious of the induction affect since it involved unconscious projection.

    It is fun and educational to play with art idols, but it is not OK to worship it, since worship reflects a high degree of unconsciousness. Nowadays, fake news appears to be using the art affect, so emotions will be induced. News art may indica emotions like hate Trump, fear global warming, desire world peace, etc.,These induced emotions will reverberate in the minds of the audience and trigger personal memories. The unconscious person can't see that their own shadow is being triggered and made conscious, but think this is part of the other person; projected tarnished golden calf affect.
  • Expressing masculinity
    Men are more visually orientated, while women are more audio and language orientated. Males tend to use the front to back paths in the brain, more, while women tend to use side to side. Men and women were designed to be compliments. This difference is connected to the visual cortex; male, being in the back of the brain and the audio cortex; female, side to side. Data is processed differently.

    It is not coincidence that men have invented and discovered the vast majority of things. This is connected to seeing in the visual cortex and processing in the frontal lobe. Women are better at maintaining the social capacitance of culture, as defined by language and traditions. Males are more likely to become criminals or rebels, since the frontal lobe and male front to back pathways are connected to the imagination, which brings up things beyond the limits of the senses.

    Being male is connected to fully developing the front to back and back to front pathways of the brain. This can lead to the development and use of sensory expectation. Sensory expectation anticipates what is out there, ahead of time. When this expectation is seen, in the future, it will trigger a gut feeling; eureka.

    This based on the male sexual drive. In the male, the happy ending appears first in the imagination. Foreplay is for the women. This sensory expectation motivates him to move within his environment to get reality to overlap, so he can satisfy the expectation. Sometimes, the path in the middle may not conform to social PC and female standards, since the goal, is the goal, not the path. This flexible path approach allows men to be risky and learn to tolerate discomfort during the path, since the goal is the goal. Discovery builds upon this basic schema.

    Maternal instinct is more geared to security since the female is vulnerable during pregnancy and has to care for the needs of a vulnerable child after pregnancy. She prefers a secure structuring. This is offered by the side-to side processing of cultural thoughts and feelings.

    In the ideal world, men are able to be men and women are able to be women so they can take advantage of natural instincts. Each learns to fully level their key pathways. When they unite as one, in intimate relations, the two different pathways of the brain; front to back and side to side, form a symbolic cross in time and space, so each can help the other learn the way of the other. The team becomes more than the sum of its parts.
  • The language of thought.


    As an experiment, say we assembled 6500 people in a large hall, with each individual person speaking one of the 6500 languages of the earth. What I will do is place a black cat on a table on the stage for all to see. Everyone in the audience will see the same thing. However, each person will make different sounds, to describe what they see. This visual language is universal, but spoke language is not. There is no universal sound or noise for black cat, even though it looks the same for all, with each able to pick it out of a picture lineup.

    The visual language is universal since eyes, optic nerves and the brain processing and assembling of data, works the same in all humans. These universal sensory languages use interchangeable parts, which are assembled into collective human patterns.

    Although we all see the same thing; common sensory language, this internal data is not easy to transfer directly to others, since human brains do not have wireless connections. Audio language was developed as a way to transfer information, from the internal universal sensory languages, to people outside yourself.

    For example, the scientist sets up and runs his experiment. He will watch, listen and smell, which is the same for any scientist running the same repeatable experiment. Translation for others comes last, using any of a number of subjective audio languages. Since these spoken and written languages are subjective and arbitrary; not universal, there is some loss during transfer. It is a good approximation, but not as good as being there, running the experiment, using universal sensory languages.

    Say you were in the rain forest and discovered a new species of animal that is unique. There is no word for this, yet. However, the universal visual language nevertheless assembles the input data in your brain, so this new animal fits into patterns and/or categories. From this you give it a name. The invention of each word, started inside a person using one or more of the universal sensory languages.
  • Identity politics and having a go at groups
    Identity politics is where you choose to lose your identity as an individual, in favor of being part of a herd identity. As part of a herd, there is safety. Also one gets to accept credit for anything anyone in the herd does that is favorable, or which gives you leverage. It detaches the individual from realty in favor of a group projection.

    As an example, a white supremacist will attach himself to all the important things that white people have done; strength and/or accomplishments. As part of this herd, you can sort of accept credit for what Abraham Lincoln or Albert Einstein did, since both were white and therefore part of that same herd. This can inflate the ego, so it is no longer grounded in reality.

    As another example, those who relate to the black victim herd, can find a way to accept restitution for slavery, even though this all happened a century before they were born. Again, an attachment to that herd, extrapolates the ego beyond their own reality.

    Identity policies is currently pushed by the left, since they know when people lose their individuality, to become attached to a herd, you can manipulate lots of individuals, by simply spooking the herd, thereby compounding unconsciousness. A herd of buffalo can be made to stampede if you startle one. The rest will move in unison without consciousness. The herd mentality is lower than human but above an animal; beast. A beast is an unnatural animal.

    An individual has their own history, their own dreams and accomplishment and their own dark times and disappointments. This history belongs to them. If we were all individuals, politicians and other who wish to shepherd herds, would need to spook each person separately, to get people to stampede as groups. This is way too much work. If we can attach individuals to herds, it is easier to get everyone to move. One shepherd dog can move a herd of sheep.

    Belonging to a herd and losing your individuality has its downside, since you can be hurt simply by someone keying in on a few negative or vulnerable stereotypical attributes of the herd. The left has reinforced this with PC. PC does not teach one to have a tough skin by showing you how to separate oneself as an individual. Rather it teaches how each herds to stampede on cue, adding further unconsciousness.

    Consider the term white guilt. One, if white, is expected to stampede with the white herd, even when you know there is no wolf. One is being induced, to be part of a herd, by accepting its downside as your own, so you can be stampeded for something you did not do. If you allow this to happen you will lose your contact to reality. The evil shepherds have no concern for you they need to get you to market.
  • The Non-Physical


    There is one additional consideration that most people are not aware of. The brain can process data in 2-D as well as 3-D. An example of 2-D thinking is logic, where cause and affect are the (x,y) axis, with logic the plotted curve. Most of science and philosophy is 2-D.

    There is also 3-D thinking which is not the same. This is (x,y,z) with the axis being described as effect, cause and affect, or cause, affect and cause. This type of thinking and perception, can at times, be deterministic in 3-D, but will appear to be nondeterministic in 2-D. This, to the rational mind, is often attributed to the metaphysical.

    As an analogy, say we start with a golf ball; 3-D sphere. We can approximate this ball with a large number of 2-D circles, all with a common center, but with each ball at a different angle. This is a descriptive way to describe a large number of different rational opinions; 2-D circles, about a given topic; common center. Each of us may take a different rational angle, with the sum of all these opinions approximating the volume of the 3-D ball; a spatial relationship.

    Say I was to strike the ball with a golf club. The ball will deform in 3-D, which can be modeled with stress and shear equations. This deformation is deterministic in 3-D, based on the materials used. On the other hand, if we look any of the many rational planes; circles, used to approximate the ball, many of these circles will become deformed out of their plane. The 3-D logic can add what appears to be indeterminism to that plane. The change is deterministic in 3-D, but will not appear to be so in 2-D.

    The reason is, 3-D thinking is integral thinking which, like the math operation of integration, defines the area under a curve. Whereas, 2-D thinking is differential thinking. This finds the slope at a given point on the curve. The 2-D thinking is better for differentiating the details of the universe, but is not designed to properly integrate all the data together. Instead we have a lot of opinions with the best based on funding. Whereas 3-D can integrate the data, but it can makes differentiation; slope, appear fuzzy or indeterministic at times, in we use 2-D theory.

    Statistics is sort of a bridge concept between 2-D and 3-D, where the determinism in 3-D is given approximation math in 2-D, to help explain the deformation in the rational planes of theory. This is needed in 2-D, but not 3-D.
  • Is the Speed of Light the Ground State of the Universe?


    There are many paths back to C-level, with the zero energy at absolute zero one of these paths. Absolute zero makes energy singular at infinite wavelength. However, this path does not preclude matter from still being around. Inertial reference and matter can still exist at absolute zero. Matter will still need to find a different path than energy, back to C-level, which is done by gravity and the other forces. These will occur simultaneously; all roads lead to Rome.

    Light speed being the speed of gravity can be understood as being connected to the speed of light being the same in all references, however not all gravity induced references are the same.

    If you were a neutron star; hypothetically, your space-time reference perception would appear contracted, compared to the earth. Therefore, things in the universe would appear closer to you.This means the speed of light, in your reference, would appear to be able to reach further for any unit of clock time in your reference. Constant speed and contracted distance means the gravity waves can influence the universe, further

    The gravity of our earth reference does not reach as far per unit of our reference time, compared to the neutron star. The result is the universe shows super structure or large scale order due to black holes, neuron star and other dense things. There is also local differences due to dust clouds , stars and planets and other smaller mass things. But in all cases, gravity is heading everything back to C-level at all scales.

    Through gravitational pressure, gravity gets the other three forces into play so matter can head to C-level, by giving off energy, which then red shifts back toward it's paths toward C-level. This red shift can occur due to motion, changes of reference, absorption into entropy and by cooling. All these paths work,with some better for activation energy, for other paths back to C-level.
  • Democracy is Dying
    One problem with a modern Democracy, is too many people are vulnerable to propaganda, allowing others to think for them. Their vote is not based on their own line of thinking. When other people think for you, this is no longer a Democracy, since it amounts to a pseudo-Republic in Democracy clothing; leaders speak on your behalf, with you nothing but a voting puppet that says what the leaders wanted to do in advance.

    A modern Republic has a similar problem in the sense the people are represented by leaders, who also try to manipulate them, to vote for them, using the same propaganda tactics. The citizen is still just a puppet. For example, under Obama the leaders did not even represent the public on Obama Care, since 60% of the citizens did not what this. The leaders manipulate the voter puppets, ignored the public, and did not represent them. The fix was in.

    When the US was young, only men could vote and these men had to own property to show a long term commitment to the community. The founders did it this way since they only wanted the self reliant to vote; individuals and not puppets.

    Back then, they did not have all the modern communication and social networking tools and propaganda. Back then, earning a living was time consuming and required resourcefulness. A Republic made more sense, with the leaders elected by men, who had sticks in the fire, and who by default, had to come to their own ideas.

    In modern times, things are much different. Now we have all types of market driven ways and means to manipulate public opinion for fun and profit. Also women, children and people with no stake in the community, can vote. While much of this demographics is heavily tied into the day to day world of the fad living and group think; puppets.

    Even the men are more feminized where emotional subjectivity and self interests do not suit the needs of a wide scale Democracy or Republic. There is no team affect. They would need to get closer to the middle where collective needs and personal needs balance better. This is where Trump is trying to bring the country.

    I would like to see an objectivity test before one can vote. This would be a test, which can be taken as many times as you need, where you show that you understand the main points of views, to prove you are not a voting puppet. The idea is to compete with the propaganda merchants who will try to turn living people into wooden puppets.
  • The New Dualism


    When memory is formed, sensory input is combined with an emotional tag, by aspects of the limbic system, and then written to the cerebral matter. If we see red, this input data is stored as visual data with an emotional tag. If we see red again, this will trigger previous memories, which will also trigger the emotional tag, that had been added.

    Since memory has both sensory content and emotions, we can trigger memory from either side. We can think of a feeling and images will appear in our mind. If we feel hungry, we will start to imagine food we would like to eat. Or one can think of an event; wedding, and emotions will appear.

    In the case of the color red, this triggers previous visual memories, which triggers emotions. The emotions can then trigger other memories; red sports car, with some of these memories triggering related emotions; desire, etc., It is this chain reaction reverberation in memory that creates the dynamics in awareness we call conscious. The stimulus becomes alive to us.

    In tradition, red is a warm color due to how fire is red. This is the same sensory color input and will get a very similar tag. Fire is one of those dramatic primal memories which will reverberate when we see red. This can bring us to other places, separate in space and time; old memories, from which two references appear so consciousness can isolate itself.
  • Is the Speed of Light the Ground State of the Universe?


    For example, most materials in nature are both temperature and pressure dependent. This data is plotted in what is called a phase diagram, which shows transitions in physical properties of materials as a function of temperature and pressure. Water, for example, at the assumed conditions of the earth's core; 5400 C and 3.5 million atmospheres of pressure, would be a solid metal phase. This phase has it own ground state, even though it is still water.

    What is assumed, in physics, to be the building blocks of matter, is formed in particle accelerators. These use extreme temperature or energy, but very low earth surface pressures. These particles are a phase, on a much larger phase diagram, even though it is assumed to be the ground state of matter. Int is a low pressure isobar phase. If we added a billion atmosphere of pressure, we would have different particles phases. But in all cases, the speed of light and C-level is the same place, for all elevations, on all phase diagrams, for all materials.



    If you assume the C-level is the ground state, then all inertial, matter and energy have potential relative to this ground state. The primordial atom of the BB, before expansion, had a potential with C-level, even though we call this t=0. It has potential due to energy and inertial content. The potential means this is not the beginning, but in the middle.

    The analogy is a water fountain with all the water in the pool below; stillness. This is C-level. The primordial atom is water that has been pumped to the top of the fountain. We currently call the top iff the fountain t=0, since we have the tradition of doing this up-side-down. This is due to measuring with matter at inertial conditions.

    But in reality, the still pool, before we start the pump is the true t=0. The clock is ticking when we start the pump; primordial atom is assembling; water works its way to the top, and when it starts to cascade downward, back to the pool; expansion, and ends as a still and quiet pool. C-level forces you to go back further which opens new possibilities.

    For example, space-time is like a woven fabric in the sense space and time are intertwined to act as one thing. If we unraveled the fabric of space-time, into separate threads of space and time, we have a different set of in conditions in space and time. Say we pressed separated time and space threads together, but not woven. This type of cloth is more fragile and is sort of like a amorphous fabric of space-time, that has unique unwoven properties. We are using time; threads, but not in the limited sense of time within space-time. Time is in play, earlier than space-time, which then becomes a new phase of space and time at the more extreme potential conditions.
  • The New Dualism
    Many people do not seem to understand the difference between human consciousness and a machine. A computer can memorize, store and repeat data faster than any human. A computer can do math calculations faster than any human. However, neither of these things make the computer conscious. If you can read a book in an hour and know it by heart, a computer can do that too, but this alone will not make the computer be considered conscious or AI. This act, although impressive, is really a human acting like a machine, with the machine setting the standard. This is not intelligence, or else that alone would make the computer super intelligent.

    Consciousness requires a different type of hardware or else computer would be naturally conscious based on any hardware. I have explained how neuron design; memory, is based on the rest state of a neuron being at highest potential due to ion pumping and exchange. Computer memory is designed to be at lower potential. This makes a big difference, since a high potential starting point can meander in new ways driven by the lowering of free energy, apart from programming logic. It follows energy and matter logic as well as computer logic. The meandering path of the river, is not based on any program in the river. This is connected to something larger; laws of physics that are same in all references.

    Another key element to consciousness is the hydrogen bond, such as occurs between water molecules, protein, RNA and the DNA and all combinations thereof.

    The hydrogen bond is an odd duck, since it shows both polar and covalent bonding character. In essence, the hydrogen bond it is a natural binary switch. Observations in water show that water exists in both high and low density clusters. The difference in density is connected to whether the hydrogen bonding switches are more to the polar; higher density, or covalent side; lower density, of the switch. The polar side is also slanted more heavily to the electrostatic force, while the covalent side is more slanted toward the magnetic force. The hydrogen bond can break the unified electromagnetic force, into its two separated components, based on the switch setting. This adds new things.

    The hydrogen bonding switch is way more advanced, than any semi-conductor switch. The main reason is the two extreme switch settings are different in terms of physical properties, allowing the switch setting to impact the matter around itself, differently for each setting.

    The polar side has higher enthalpy, higher enthalpy but less volume (more density).The covalent side has lower entropy and lower enthalpy but occupies more volume. Chemical changes near the switch can flip the switch, so there is equilibrium. Whereas, a pure information transfer via the switches can impact the physical environment.

    When we think, the information transfer through hydrogen bonding switches, muscles the molecules causing physical changes that create memory. The line between information and matter gets blurred. If we add to this, the high energy rest neurons, that meander potential energy, as this energy moves, hydrogen bonding translates that to natural and spontaneous information based on material logic.
  • Is the Speed of Light the Ground State of the Universe?


    Ground state, in physics, is a relative term based on the ambient conditions. The hydrogen atom on the sun, may never reach the same ground state, as the hydrogen atom on the earth. We also have the problem with inertial references being relative, such that the observation of the wavelength given off by the ground state of the hydrogen, is also relative to the observer. How do you do normalize an energy balance across all references?

    The speed of light ground state; C-level, is the universal ground state. It is the same for all references, since it is not relative, but absolute to all references. This is the ground state, where even energy is going as it red shifts.

    The real problem with translation, is I am thinking in terms of an absolute while physics is content with relative.
  • Is the Speed of Light the Ground State of the Universe?
    In terms of time and space, if we could move at the speed of light, in a spherical orbit, we would see the inertial universe contracted to a point-instant. Space-time would break down into separate space and separate time. The integration of space-time would be lost. One can move in time without space and/or move in space without time. This is closer to C-level.

    The reason this is so, is since the universe would appear to be a point-instant, everything in the universe would appear to overlap in space and in time, so we can be anywhere and everywhere, simultaneously due to the point-instant reference; omnipresence. One is not limited by distance or time lag implicit of space-time references. The fabric of space-time unravels into separate threads.

    This is another aspect, needed to better define C-level. C-level does not contain any excess time or distance potential; separated threads of space and/or time. Our current universe contains separated distance and time potential threads. The easiest to see is force and acceleration. Acceleration is d/t/t or one part distance and two parts time. It is space-time plus time threads; time threads embroidered into the fabric of space-time to create a pucker. Force uses up time potential, implicit of another path back to C-level.
  • Is the Speed of Light the Ground State of the Universe?
    It is hard to use standard physics terms because many of these terms are based on up-side-down and not the right side up. These are not needed, if C-level is the ground state.

    I think I understand the main source of confusion.

    Light; photons, move at the speed of light. However, light is not entirely in the C-level reference of the ground state. Light will also red and blue shift based on local inertial references. This observation creates a paradox. If light moves at a constant velocity, C, but its time and distance parameters; frequency and wavelength, are variable, it can't be entirely in the C-level ground state. If it was, the wavelength and frequency should always appear constant and unaffected by inertial.

    Light is not entirely at C-level or in the ground state. Light contains inertial potential and is impacted by inertial references. However, light has one leg in C and acts as a bridge between C-level and inertial.

    Theoretically, C-level, in terms of energy, would only be composed of infinite wavelength energy. The universal red shift and the impact of black holes move universal energy in the direction of the C-level ground state.
  • To See Everything Just As It Is
    Here is an analysis I developed a few years back to show the impact of specialization clarity, on large scale clarity.

    Picture a large puzzle the size of wall. This is symbolic of all of knowledge. What I am going to do is use a telephoto lens and zoom into the puzzle, so all I can see is one puzzle piece. This is specialization. From this close, we can examine that one piece of the puzzle and see many tiny details. Among the details, we see what appears to be the eye of a young women. There is strained anguish in her eye. We know that much with certainty, but we don't have enough data to know what the entire puzzle is about. We can only guess.

    Next, we zoom out so more pieces of the puzzle appear. We learn the ways of other adjacent specialty to gain their clarity of data. Now we can see the whole young female, and she appears to be dressed in a worn workout suit. Based on the old and new details, we extrapolate and infer that the puzzle is about a poor young woman, struggling in her humble surroundings. This is reasonable.

    Next, we zoom out even more and now we see what appears to be a gymnasium. Based on this larger picture, we decide we need to change our extrapolation, Now, the puzzle is about a young woman who is working out in the gym. Now it is not clear if she is poor or not. But she seems to be having a hard time maybe due to being out of shape.

    We zoom out even further to add more details, from more distant areas of specialty, and notice she is not alone, but there are other females in various stags of stretching and movement. Now they all appear to be dancers. Based on this even wider picture, we again need to change the extrapolation. The puzzle is now about a bunch of women trying out for a small local dance company. Our original female is still struggling. That did not change.

    We zoom out even further, by integrating the details of the most distant specialities and notice this is not just a gym, but it is the stage used by the NYC ballet. We also see the coach is directing his attention to the young female we first noticed. She is the prima ballerina, who is straining to be perfect.

    Specialization does not extrapolate reliably to the large picture. You need to be more of a generalists who is able to zoom out and take it a wider range of clarity, at the same time. From the big picture, the specialty details, can take on new meaning.
  • To See Everything Just As It Is


    There is more than one way to see clearly. Say you were in the forest that is dense with trees. You can see the close things clearly, but it will be hard to see the forest because of the trees. One will need assumptions to extrapolate the nature of the forest, based on the clearly seen local flora.

    Say instead you were up on a high ridge, overlooking the same forest. Now you can clearly see the transitions in the entire forest in terms of basic flora, streams, and hills. However, you are too far away to see any particular tree. Again you may will need use assumptions to extrapolate the big picture down to the smaller picture.

    Science and most forms of knowledge are specialized, meaning they can see things clearly, that are close, but not far away. The biologists may not know what the physicists is doing nor the physicists know what the chemists is doing with the same clarity. Specialization does not allow the view on the ridge. From the ridge, one can see how all these isolated specialties, are part of a single larger clarity; forest.

    The omniscience nature of the concept of God, allows him to zoom in or zoom out to view clarity from any distance. There is no need to extrapolate with concepts. Science and human knowledge, by being specialized, can't see very far beyond its own area of specialty. However, each zone of specialty attempts to extrapolate beyond itself, where it has no clear vision.
  • Is the Speed of Light the Ground State of the Universe?


    I am using the speed of light and the speed of light reference, interchangeably, since the speed of light implies a particular reference according to relativity. I will call this reference C-level. As an analogy C-level is analogous to sea level in terms of all the elevations of the earth. It is same for all elevations. If C-level was the ground state of the universe, it would be the place of lowest potential in the universe, with all things heading in that direction, in various ways, to reduce universal potential.

    A briefly discussed above, the forces of nature give off energy as they lower potential. They create aspects within C-level; photons, as the matter lowers potential. Gravity causes space-time reference to contract, which in the limit is the black hole, which has a references similar to C. Gravity is the main way matter lowest potential back toward the ground state. Even universal expansion is heading to C as reflected in the red shift. In this case, energy is going away from the extreme energy needed to make matter. It is heading toward infinite wavelength at C-level.

    Physics does not currently use C-level as the ground state. It assumes, without saying, that inertial and matter is the ground state. Speed of light is measured relative to the earth and given a larger positive value compared to the earth, which is defined as zero. This is up-side-down and has an impact on all of physics.
  • Shouldn't religion be 'left'?


    Hidden versus open religion is why the left is more besides itself, and the right is able to maintain; conserve.well-wisher

    Religion is a natural part of human experience, since it exercises parts of the brain. It works the frontal lobe; imagination, as well as various spatial or 3-D aspects of the brain. The concept of God merges opposites; left versus right is 2-D, into a neutral third, which is 3-D. Jesus on the cross in the center between two thieves is a 3-D concept. One attempts to merge opposites into a new center that is different from the two.

    If you practice a religion, but are not aware you are doing so, due to denial it is a religion, the exercise still has the same unconscious affects. If you practice a religion, with open eyes, without denial, there is less unconsciousness.

    The definition of religion that is now in use; religion defined by deities, allows plausible denial, by the left, based on a human tradition. This tradition and the denial does not negate how the brain reacts to the religious exercise. It will still react the same way, whether our eyes are open or closed. However, closed eyes get a different brain output due to different conscious potential.

    For health's sake, we are all better off if we have everyone doing their religion, do so with open eyes, by retooling the definition of religion, to reflect brain impact, and not social politics.

    Manmade global warming is a religion. It is not coincidence that the right is less impacted, since they already have a core religion. They don't need another one. The left is still looking for a core replacement, that is not called a religion, based on the current definition, but which gives the same brain buzz.

    Trump spoiled the worship service of manmade global warming when it messed up the money exchange rituals. The left was left scrambling for a new religion. It found it in Trump mythology, where Trump is the archetypical bad guy. Even many atheists have become irrational, no longer using science to weigh the claims of their religion, against hard evidence.

    The atheist religion; based on the broader definition, is similar to a mirror image of Buddhism; opposites. Buddhism is introspective that denies the illusions of the world; cultural and materialism, in favor of developing the inner man and higher human potential. There is science in this; meditation, without the need of deities. The atheists seek a similar goal; human progress, but do so in an extroverted way, connected to materialism, technology, and cultural norms.
  • Understanding Consciousness


    Consciousness also has a connection to the way neurons are designed. A neuron will expend most of its metabolic energy, pumping and exchanging cations to establish a membrane potential. The net result are neurons are designed to exist at high surface potential, due to this pumping action.

    Computer semi-conductor memory is designed to be at low potential, so the memory is stable and will only change when prompted by additional energy. The high potential of neurons, on the other hand, means that neurons have built chemical potential and therefore can spontaneously change or fire so they can move toward lowered free energy.

    As an analogy, computer memory is like a pool of water. While neural memory is like the same pool of water being pumped to the top of a fountain. In the case of the pool, nothing more happens unless we add energy. In the case of the neuron, the pumped water of the fountain acquires gravitational potential, causing the water to cascade downwards back into the pool; lowering potential. Consciousness occurs in this fountain.

    As another analogy, computer memory is like a floor full of mouse traps, but with none of the mouse trap springs set. If you wish the change the design on the floor, you need to move the traps around. In the case of neurons, its floor is covered with mouse traps, but with all the springs set. If you touch one trap in that room, will jump and can create a spontaneous chain reaction in some or all the other mouse traps. When the springs have all sprung, there is a new design on the floor, with the traps immediately resetting themselves.

    Free energy in the neurons is the sum of entropy and enthalpy. Entropy is connected toward change into higher levels of complexity. In the fountain or the floor of mouse traps, analogies, we have energy expression as well as movement toward complexity; consciousness. All this schema needs is some of the energy flow to go to the brain stem and trigger arousal; awareness. One becomes aware of the mouse traps in action; I think therefore I am.
  • Morality
    Morality was designed with the needs of the group in mind. Morality was not designed with the needs of the individual in mind. The reason for this approach was the team affect. A team, when optimized, can become more than the sum of its parts.

    If you had all the parts needed to make a fancy sports car, but as a pile of parts, it has no practical value beyond recyclable resources. This is analogous to a bunch of individuals all going their own way. But when assembled properly, into the working sports car, all these parts take on a new layer of value. This was the goal of morality.

    The mistake often made, based on ego-centric philosophy, was to assume morality was about outdated laws for individuals. Nobody thought in terms of the team affect and how these rules still apply. Many people lament how traditional morality does not allow them to have their way. They are not team players, who have the team in mind. They are the hot dogs who wants to play when they want to and how they want to. Morality is like the coach, who puts them in, in certain situations for certain shots. The individual may lament his limited play, as unfair and want the rules changed.

    If you look at the 10 Commandments, each one, if done by all members of the group, would remove all types of triggers that could upset the integration of the group. The first commandment of one god gets rid of a variety of problems connected to religious bickering and warring among the group. This may not optimize all individuals, who like to speculate. All the thieves were upset since stealing was not allowed. However, if they all bite the bullet, and the team wins the championship, then everyone rises to new heights. Then the sacrifice now makes sense.

    Darwin had the survival of the individual and survival of the species. Morality was connected to survival of the species. Morality took survival of the species, one step further, in terms of making use of the team affect; evolutionary.

    The individual can also think in terms of survival of the individual or survival of the species. For example, say the baby animal is being attacked. The mother may decide to risk her own life and fight the predator. She sees the baby as the future of the species. If she was egocentric and thinking only for her personal survival, she may run. But now the future is uncertain for the team. The animal mother makes a moral judgement, in nature; help the team, even to her own detriment.
  • Shouldn't religion be 'left'?
    Buddhism is a major religion. Although Buddhism is called a religion, Buddhism does not worship deities. Buddhism is an example that shows that a religion does not have to worship deities, to be called a religion. There is something more fundamental than just deities, when it come to defining a religion. Deities are one way to express a religion, but not the only way.

    With that in mind, there are plenty of religions, not officially called religions, based on the erroneous or limiting assumption that a religion has to have deities. This definition is too narrow and self serving. Buddhism shows the definition of religion is much broader than just deities. The narrow definition is used because with no deities involved, many hidden religions are exempt from separation of church and state laws; money and political value.

    If you go back to the original point of left versus right and religion, Conservatives tend to conserve the past, so their religions will tend to be traditional instead of improvised. The left is more liberal and likes to be try new things. Their religions will tend to be more faddish, novel, or hidden behind the looser deity definition of religion. The left still has religion, but not as obvious. This is easier to see with the broader definition.

    For example, if you look at Socialism, people who favor this, view the possibility of a cooperative utopian paradise on earth. It seems humanly possible so it does not need deities. Although inspiring to think about, this is not a reality image in terms of previous social tests of this political orientation. There is a mythological element, overlay, beyond applied reality; alternate reality. This alternate reality does not involve deities, which is the loophole. Although the type of leader needed to make this happen and make it sustainable, would become mythological. Again, to avoid separation of church and state laws, this paradise religion has to avoid deities. The rest of the mythology is allowed.

    We need to broaden the definition to include all forms of group worship, designed to distort reality, for better or worse, using metaphysical, archetypical and other idealized elements. The anti-Trump movement would be form of religion, by the broader definition, since it is a type of mythology where the archetypical evil leader takes on the traits of all things bad. It is a type of fairy tale. This is not reality but is a religion without deities.

    There is a spiritual need in all of us. If one does not use the traditional approaches, one will find another avenue that does the same thing; gives the same buzz. If one is not aware they are worshiping in a hidden religion, the impact can be loss of soul, where you lose yourself in a fantasy. If you are aware this a religion and you still choose, your soul remains with you. Hidden versus open religion is why the left is more besides itself, and the right is able to maintain; conserve.
  • Understanding Consciousness
    Consciousness is connected to self awareness. If you unconsciously react to a stimulus without thinking, you are no different from an electronic device. An electronic device can be programmed to react to a stimulus without being called conscious. If you are aware, that you are unconsciously reacting to the stimulus, then you are conscious.

    Say you were asleep and you were tossing and turning. If you are not aware you are doing this, you are not conscious, even though there appears to be conscious output occurring. If you saw yourself on a video the next day, you may look conscious, but you know you were not.

    Self awareness occurs because we have two centers of consciousness. Self awareness or consciousness is connected to an awareness of a phase difference between the two centers. When we will to walk from here to there, the mechanics of walking is done unconsciously. Were are aware that we walk which is being done, at the nuts and bolts level, unconsciously.

    When you are asleep tossing and turning, the unconscious center is aware of the discomfort of the body. However, its actions occur unconsciously to the ego, since the conscious mind is asleep and not aware. In the morning when you are starting to awaken, but not ready to get up; semi-sleep, you may now become aware that you are not comfortable, as you toss and turn. The phase difference appears allowing self awareness. When asleep, you are in phase with the unconscious.

    Dreams are interesting in that they allow the conscious mind to be in various degrees of conscious awareness. It would take practice to be able to be conscious and remember dreams with the same clarity as when we are awake and looking at reality. Without this practice, the phase difference between the two centers is much tighter and only separates periodically, so we get bits and pieces of conscious awareness.

    Humans have repressed natural instinct in favor of a modified version of human instinct. This is where the phase difference for consciousness is grounded. If you are interested in learning about the unconscious center there is a good primer book called, The undiscovered Self by Carl Jung.
  • The objective-subjective trap


    When the brain writes memories to the cerebral matter, aspects of the limbic system, in the core of the brain, will add emotional tags during the writing process. The result is our memory has both sensory data combined with emotional tags. Our strongest memories will have the strongest emotional attachments.

    The value of this schema is that it allows the animal to make decisions without needing to think. If a similar situation arises, it will trigger the old memory and the attached feeling, with the animal reacting to the feeling. For example, if the animal ate a strange new food, and it was good and caused no ill affects, the next time they encounter that food, they will feel a positive feeling and eat. They do not have to recreate the wheel and run another cautious experiment.

    Since our memories are binary and have both data and feelings tags, it is possible to trigger the memory in two different ways. We can think about a particular feeling and certain data will appear, with that feeling attachment. Or we can think about certain data, and the emotional tag will appear as a feeling. For example, if I feel hungry, images; data, of my favorite foods will appear in my mind. On the other hand, if I think of my favorite food, it can make me feel hungry. Objective versus subjective is loosely based on which side of the memory; emotion or data, you use to induce memory. It is also connected to natural or unnatural tagging.

    Subjective; emotional side inductions, can be objective if there was a natural emotional tag added during the writing process, based on natural instinct. In the example, of the animal eating the new food, his final tag feeling tag was based on previously gathered data and his experiment that was drawn to a successful conclusion. His feeling is objective, based on previous cause and affect. Sometimes a gut feeling seems subjective to others, but it can actually be based on an internal logic synthesis. The gut feeling allows you to know the answer before the solution is fully conscious.

    Where subjectivity; emotional side induction, remains subjective is usually connected to group think that is not filtered through natural instinct for tagging. This other feeling can still trigger memory but it will not have the correct natural tag and will thereby become subjective.

    A good example is the anti-Trump movement in American politics. All memory tagging by this movement, no matter what Trump does, gets a negative tag, due to group think propaganda inductions. This tagging process is not objective, based on case by case studies. This emotional thinker will draw subjective conclusions, env with sound logic, due to premises that are not natural with cause and affect.

    Objective; data side induction of memory, can also be both objective and subjective. For example, if you based the value of your chosen beliefs, on prestige; this is a type of memory tagging is based on what the group subjectively feels is correct. One may induce this memory, directly, and arrange it with other memory, in a sound logical way to draw a what appears to be a rational conclusion, but the original premises were not objective, so the result is subjective.

    For example, at one time it was believed that the earth was flat. There was a social prestige in this belief, since the leaders; highest social prestige, assumed it to be truth; in good faith. The average Joe would use this feeling of prestige and assume this premise was objective. As we reason from there, using sound logic, if the earth was flat and you sailed to the edge, you would fall off. This follows logically, but is not objective in terms of reality. Typically, as humans, we go both ways in terms of memory inductions, with logic not always using premises that objective, to draw what we assume is an objective conclusion.

    It can get very complicated and requires you question your memory tagging to make sure each premise is self standing based on logic and data. Throwing money at a theory does not make it objective in proportion to the money spent. The value of emotional side inductions, based on sound tagging of memory, is speed. Then you translate the result in the opposite way; data side, making sure the induced feelings, during translation are also adding up. It is a skill you can learn.
  • Will A.I make us smarter?
    AI will make us dumber, because it will act as a prosthesis for human intelligence causing natural intelligence to atrophy. As an analogy, say you had biotic pants that allow you to run faster and farther then you can naturally. As long as you wear these biotic pants, you can pretend to be the worlds fastest human. This illusion flatters the ego and can be addictive in terms of self esteem.

    But since these pants do all the work, your natural legs will atrophy and get weaker and your natural stride will get awkward. Without the pants, you will get slower. There will be a certain dependency on the pants to avoid having to face this hard reality. One will start to live in an alternate reality where skinny weak legs with bionic pants is the new athletic.

    If you look at cell phones today, people are forgetting how to deal with day to day reality as an individual. Instead many need to constantly call, text or internet search for advice or approval. In a sense, the social network has data and knowledge advantages, but the individual without this cell phone prosthesis has lost its natural ability to cope as an individual. It is similar to a drug or alcohol addiction. When buzzed the person feels more like themselves, but when sober there is a feeling something is not there. This is why tech is so easy to sell.

    Years back it was common for married couples to go on long drives for vacation. If they got lost the stereotypical wife will want to stop and ask for directions. The stereotypical husband would prefer drive around and find his own way. Today with cells phones, most cars only have wives, since very few men still have the skills to improvise without asking the GPS for direction. Many male brains have lost the ability to self visualize directions. The GPS does such a good job, that nobody seems to notice this going away until the network goes down.

    As technology and AI improves and reaches more and more aspects of life, the increasing dependency will dumb us down in more and more ways. Human and technology will meet but at a level that is less than full human potential. The dependency affect will then allow the AI to appear to exceed the dumb down version of humans; unconsciousness.
  • The paradox of conscience
    Part of what makes humans feel conscious, is we have two centers of consciousness. The main center is called the inner self. This center is similar to what animals have. It is the center of our natural instincts and human nature. The inner self is also the center of the unconscious mind.

    The second center, which is relatively new in terms of evolution; 10,000 year ago, and is unique to humans, is called the ego and it is the center of the conscious mind. Self awareness and consciousness, as normally defined and experienced by humans, is connected to the ego being able to differentiate itself from the inner self, with the two centers setting a contrast using the parts of the brain stem involved in arousal.

    As an analogy, say you were a good solider, who has been trained not to think on your own, but to blindly follow the orders from a commanding officer. This is like being one with instinct and the inner self. You go along, reacting to situations, without thinking. One day you get separated from your unit and find yourself in a unique situation where your training is no longer fully appropriate and your commanding officer is not around to give real time orders.

    You try to blindly follow your training, like a good solider, but it was not fully designed for this situation. You still need to survive and return to your unit, so you need to improvise. However, since you have always been a good programed to react robot, this is very awkward. You find yourself shifting you mind between your programmed training and your own attempts to improvise, which are falling short due to lack of practice.

    There are two states of arousal, occurring side by side, like two sine waves out of phase, but which overlap and separate cyclically as the time goes on. I think, therefore I am, is one of these two sine waves, with its arousal slightly out of phase with the inner self. The inner self is much faster since it uses the main frame parts of the brain; trained to react.

    As an experiment, to investigate the inner self, have someone jump out from behind a door to scare you, when you are not prepared. Then may have to buy their time. When they finally catch you off guard, you may jump and may even scream like a little girl. This can be embarrassing because the inner self will act before the ego can react, so the ego may not have enough time to maintain its willful mask of being in control. This will create a phase difference in arousal between the two centers, from which you will feel more aroused and even conflict that you may prefer.

    The traditional metaphysical explanation is close to this awareness in the sense it assumes two separate things; body and soul. These two separated things are analogous to inner self and ego, with the ego=soul, more unique, and the inner self=body more generic; human nature. The ancient people did not have the science to define consciousness in a material way, but they were able to self observe the phase difference and understand there were two things going on.
  • The mind-brain problem?


    The difference between brain and mind is analogous to the differences between hardware; biology, and software; psychology. Software, by itself, is a nothing but a static DVD or thumb drive with semi-conductor bits and bytes. You need hardware to run it to see what it does. Hardware, by itself, is also inert, without an operating system and software. You need both to get the full affect of consciousness.

    Hardware is easier to investigate, since this is outside us, and therefore it is a third person object that is more in tune with the philosophy of science. Software is not as tuned to the philosophy of science, since you can't necessarily infer what a static software can do, by looking at it in the third person, unless you are an expert at coding.

    The variety of orientations in psychology shows that there is no coding standard. Therefore, this half of the puzzle becomes more subjective. Hardware is easier to standardize because we can see the processor versus the mother board and this can be standardized.

    Learning the coding for the brain software is an internal process of introspection. You cannot learn this from the outside, since output affects always involve hardware; cross contamination. If someone smiles, this may start with software, but an outside observation become filtered through the hardware, thereby biasing any attempt to infer the software due to this extra second hard data.

    For example, game software played through different quality hardware, can be quite different in terms of performance. One set of hardware can show a lag that has nothing to do with the software, but is a hardware affect. Another set of hardware can show fidelity enhancements that may be do more to better hardware or secondary sound and video software.

    As such, one needs to filter out the hardware through self observation, so you can factor out any third person hardware affects, and observe the software in the first person. However, this approach is not fully supported by the philosophy of science, since it cannot be observed by others.

    For example, if I am having a dream, there is no way for others to see these dream details, that I can see, to verify what I see. However, this is first hand data for software analysis. It occurs deep in the brain and my consciousness is not aware of my legs moving or my facial expressions changing. It is closer to software only. Enough practice and experience allows one to narrow down coding loops. Over time one can even map out the software side of the psyche.
  • Guiliani Shrugs Off The Difference Between Fact and Opinion...
    There is a parable that is appropriate to the occasion. This is the abridged version.

    There was student who wanted to learn from a great master. After persistently hounding the master, the master finally agrees, but tells the student to follow him, but he is to watch but say nothing.

    As they walk, they notice a young child hiding a valuable possession in a hole near a tree. When the child leaves, the master quickly goes down to the tree and digs up the possession and takes it. The student is besides himself. He thought the old man was a great master, but in truth he was nothing but a two bit thief.

    The master knows the young man's mind and asks the student what is bothering him? The student tells him. The master then says, you are still young and not ready to learn. The child you saw is the child of a close friend. Where he buried his little treasure, we were not the only ones who saw him. There was also a well known thief hiding in the bushes. I took the item for safe keeping and will return it later.

    The facts are tangible but do they are not always reveal the truth. The truth depends on the context of facts and also how one wishes to view that context.

    In the case of Trump and Russian collusion, say Trump was innocent and being railroaded by sore losers. The same facts will add differently. Many assume guilty context, so when the innocent gets upset, this means guilt.

    Two lawyers presenting the offense and defense of the same case, will each pick the facts, that support a given context. It is easy to prove or disprove facts, but the context can be disguised, especially since lawyers are not required to tell the truth.
  • Why doesn't God clear up confusion between believers who misinterpret his word?
    In the New Testament, as told by Paul, in Romans, Jesus left behind a comforter, the spirit of truth; the Holy Spirit. To this end, Paul spoke of the children of the bondwoman versus the children of the promise.

    Those who were under law; by the book, were the children of the bond woman. A good slave's job is to obey. Their orders depends the word of God, as written by the prophets. The children of the promise, are like grand children of God, who have a family a connection via the Holy Spirit; written in their hearts. As children of God, they have more freedom based on an internally generated creativity, from the spirit, This is based on faith, apart from the law.

    What you see is as the confusion in the word of God, is connected to these two ways of serving God appearing so different. The children of the bondwomen memorize the bible and take its orders literally like a good servant. The children of the promise, are like the Grandchildren of God, who are know Papa personally and are faithfully creative with this spirit. The follow their inner voice with faith and often generate unique perspectives that may suit the times and occasions. Both way are considered valid and sometimes, they will contradict each other.

    Paul summarizes the value of this apparent contradiction in 1 Corinthians 9:19-23

    19 Though I am free and belong to no one; chid of the promise. I have made myself a slave to everyone, to win as many as possible. 20 To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win the Jews. To those under the law I became like one under the law (though I myself am not under the law), so as to win those under the law. 21 To those not having the law I became like one not having the law (though I am not free from God’s law but am under Christ’s law), so as to win those not having the law. 22 To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some. 23 I do all this for the sake of the gospel, that I may share in its blessings.

    Part of the reason, God allows various ways of interpreting the bible is so the faithful can save some through their inner spirit of truth.

    If you ever go to a small independent church, they may be very unique. If you look at the people, their unique path nevertheless inspires some. It is a bridge to the spirit. Become all things to all men so that you can save some.
  • The New Dualism
    Physics is mostly based on solid and gas state analogies. Gravity is about gases and solid dust becoming compressed into solid and gaseous planets and stars. Chemistry primarily deals with the liquid state, which has unique properties not found in solids and gases. The liquid state is not as common in the universe, as gases and solids. Physics left it out in terms of bulk modeling.

    The entropic force is not everywhere, but is restricted to the liquid state. The standard four forces are connected to gas, solid and liquid. The entropic force is not. Physics is not equipped to deal with liquid properties like the entropic force, using on a theoretical framework designed for gas and solid analogies. But it is real and easy to show in the lab. Life is 20% solid state and 80% liquid state allowing the life force. The solid is needed to help direct the force vector.

    Say we wanted to modeled the universe as a huge liquid, dark energy would be connected to the entropic force. In this model, the universe would need a semi permeable membrane analogy; solid, that allows selective movement, to generate an entropy force that expands the universe.

    A liquid allows surface tension and pressure to exist side by side; glass of water open to the air. The surface tension is connected to the entropic force; dark energy, while the pressure is connected to gravity and matter.
  • What is a white nationalist?


    The entire white guilt premise is based on being responsible for the past, based on some type of superficial connection, like skin color. It has nothing to do with personal deeds but based on a stereo type me.

    If these are the rules of the blame game, why not also include the payments from the past. This way we accept guilt and credit for the past? Then we can do the math.

    I look at history differently. Different times have different perspectives. You can't judge one time by another time since the variables are not the same. What we know in the future is not the same as what we knew in the past.

    For example, as a teen one may take chances, such as jump off a high ledge into the dark water below. When you become old, the idea of this world scare you. It made sense when young, but not when old. If the young teen had the mind of an old man, he would choose differently. But that is not reality. The teen has a young mind and acts accordingly.

    The Democrats and other revisionist historians are like the old man judging the youth, from the POV of being frail and afraid death. The youth sees immortality and takes the plunge. I can accept the youthful plunges of the past, as being due to humanity being younger, There is nothing to feel bad about, even if the old man is grouchy and tries to slap you for being young.

    If the Democrats want to play the old man game, we need to accept the good with the bad of youth and then do the math. The youth will also take that plunge to rescue someone at the risk of their own lives Civil War Republicans. The old man is frozen with fear and faints in the day of adversity. To cover his shame he blames the youth for being reckless.
  • What is a white nationalist?


    One thing you need to keep in mind is the Democrat party was the party of slavery in the 1800's. It was the party of segregation, the party of discrimination, Jim Crow laws and KKK, until the 1950s, when the Democrat party started to divide among itself. The Republican party under President Lincoln opposed slavery and worked hard to repeal it. The Republican party started the NAACP.

    During the Civil War, hundreds of thousands of Republicans died to free the slaves and keep the country united. These brave men paid it forward, with their lives, for all the white Republicans of the future. What is the value of a human life? Multiply that by 200,000 and this is the amount paid forward. The white Republicans are exempt from the term white guilt, due to this debt already paid in advance.

    The Democrats, on the other hand, were not only the party of slavery, but they doubled down in terms of slavery, with hundreds of thousands of Democrats willing to die to maintain slavery. The Democrats passed forward a huge debt, that was never fully paid off. Most of this debt still hangs over the heads of the Democrats.

    The analogy for the Republicans paying forward was connected to slavery itself. If a slave was bought and set free by his master, he was a free man. Legally, he could not be enslaved again. This path of payment forward gave freedom not just for the slave, but also his future children. This same was true of the Republican sacrifice during the Civil War. Their sacrifice paid to free the Republicans from all future mental enslavement. The Democrats then and now illegally try to re-enslaved those who were legally free.

    The modern Democrats, are running a scam, where they to lump all whites, including those who had been paid forward, and who never did anything, in an attempt to water down the Democrat exclusive debt. One way for the Democrats to get out of debt is similar to bankruptcy, where they need to junk pile the Democrats party charter, to officially separate from that past debt. They need to start, fresh.

    They do not want to do this, but love their shady history. Instead, they try to pass off their debt/guilt, to those whose tab has been covered. Most Republicans don't realize they are free from that debt of mental slavey due to the original master setting you free; civil war.
  • The New Dualism


    There is a huge misunderstanding, when it comes to entropy. Entropy is a variable, in chemistry, that can be measured in the lab. Decades of measurements have shown that entropy is a state variable. What that means is that for a given state of matter, there is constant amount of measured entropy. For example, liquid water at 25C and 1 atmosphere pressure has an entropy of 6.6177 J ˣ mol-1 ˣ K-1. This number is not random, but is a constant, that is measured the same by all labs. This is a standard in science.

    Descriptions of the atomic and molecular details behind entropy get very nebulous and are often assisted with random assumptions. However, when measured, it is a constant for that state. It is very similar to the concept of dark energy, which is more than likely connected to entropy. We have never seen dark energy in the lab, to know exactly what it is. We infer dark energy indirectly from observations and measurements. Entropy is the original dark energy.

    I am not claiming I can explain the nuts of bolts of entropy. However, I am claiming that since it is a state variable; constant for any given state of matter, changes of state; temperature, pressure, concentration, etc., will release or absorb a fixed amount of measurable entropy. The amount released or absorbed will be the difference between the two states.

    When you talk about osmosis, the spontaneous movement of the water toward the solute side of the membrane is altering the state of the solute side; concentration is getting lower. The pressure is decreasing on one side of the membrane and increasing on the other side; two new states appear. The entropy values on both sides are changing with the states, making internal energy available for pressure; entropic force. The pressure, in turn, is part of the new states for the entropy.

    There is another form of entropy, connected to information entropy, such as when transmitting data signals over long distances. This type of entropy is random, because information is not a state variable. We can't heat up a beaker of data and have the data rearrange itself consistently for that temperature; new repeatable fixed state of data measured by all labs. Language and information does not work like matter.The exception is the brain and life, where states of matter imply chemical information. This is another key to consciousness.

    The entropic force is a liquid state affect. The movement of the water is not something that can occur in the solid state. In the solid state, all motion is frozen; except some electrons. The entropic force in the liquid state is also contingent on segregation, in terms of what can move in the liquid, so we can regulate the entropic force vector. This allows repeatable precision by life.

    Evolution in terms of the second law and the entropic force implies movement to states of higher and higher entropy. This is not random, but has a sense of direction, in terms of the new states. The trick is knowing how to define the states, so entropy in each state is constant. The problem with the modern life sciences, is they can't define the proper states without water, so entropy appears random and the entropic force vector seems to cancel to nothing. Water is the moving force.
  • Why doesn't God clear up confusion between believers who misinterpret his word?


    When the bible was written, thousands of yeas ago, the ancient people did not have all the modern medical bells and whistles to treat STD's. Therefore, if you got a STD, such as AIDS, nature would have to run its course. This could lead to discomfort at best or birth defects and death at worse. Gay behavior, back in the day, was a disease waiting to happen; sodomy, with very serious consequences for the community. There was no medical way to deal with it. However, the ancients understood the cause and affect and addressed behavior.

    Picture the 1980's, but without any modern medicine, when the Gay community was dropping like flies due to AIDS. If this had been thousands of years ago, these deaths would have been seen as a sign from God, that this particulate behavior was not acceptable; wage of sin was death. Modern medicine allows humans to cheat the cause and affects of nature.

    I can eat rocks if I had the resources to hire dentists and internal medicine doctors to keep me going. Then, since I appear to be doing fine, with this prosthesis, I assume rocking eating is natural, without any permanent consequence. Medicine makes money off unnatural choices.

    Those who are taught to think in terms of revisionist history, try to apply the modern cheating of nature to the past, before human knew how to cheat with science and medicine. The revisionists historians wonder why the caveman did not do a Google search and find a free clinic. Revisionist history thinking then leads to questions that make the common sense of the past, appear irrational.

    If you read the old Testament, you don't find anything written, similar, about lesbians. The reason is, this was not a main highway to serious diseases, that could then spread to the community.

    We could run a national experiment, where we stop producing condoms and we stop treating all STD's for one year. We will try to simulate the past and let nature run its course. We can then observe what happens and come up with national guidelines, in terms of the cause and affect of behavior and the willful path needed to avoid sickness and death for the community. Then we compare this to the bible. God already made the path of health, clear in terms of the natural world. He was not addressing the artificial world of medical prosthesis and revisionist history.
  • The New Dualism


    Most of my ideas are grounded on established water science. I have extrapolated this well research science of water, to the questions of life, based on my working knowledge of organic and water chemistry. A good summary of water science can be found at the link below.

    http://www1.lsbu.ac.uk/water/water_structure_science.html

    Water is the most studied material in all of science. Nothing even comes close. Water has been found to be the king of all wild card materials, with over 70 known anomalies. Water breaks a lot of the rules that apply to other materials. Water, in life, has the capacity to add unique variables to the blend, that are not expected, based on the common trends in organic materials which are less anomalous. An organic centric biology does not take these water wild cards into account. It blurs them with statistics. The metaphysical is an attempt to add clarity to this classical materialism blur.

    For example, a key water variable, which is critical to life and consciousness, is connected to a fifth force of nature, that can be generated by water at certain water-organic interfaces. This force has traditionally been called the life force. I prefer call it the entropic force, since it is a force that is generated by entropy. This force is not part of four forces of nature of classical physics. However, it can be easily measured, and is evident in osmosis.

    Osmosis occurs when you partition water with a semipermeable membrane, such as life does with its many membranes. If we dissolve a solute, on one side of the membrane, that cannot diffuse through the semi permeable membrane, the water will diffusion through the membrane, toward the higher concentration solute side. The action of the water, driven by entropy, will build a pressure head. Pressure is force/area or entropic force/area.

    Osmosis is a colligative property, meaning it is only dependent on the concentration of the solute, but is not dependent on the character of the solute. The character of the solute; ion, polar, non polar is connected to the EM force; electromagnetic force. This colligative property is not EM dependent. It is driven exclusively, by entropy, regardless of the local EM forces.

    The metaphysical intuition that materialism can't explain consciousness, is correct, if we use only conventional thinking, based on the tradition of the four forces of nature. The entropic force is not part of that tradition, yet it has an impact on water, which then impacts the organics.

    In the fountain analogy of consciousness, via neurons, the entropic force is at work as ions shift between the two sides of the membrane; neurotransmitters induce variable permeability, transmitting entropic signals through the water; inside and outside the neuron.

    To know how this works and impacts the organics, you need to understand the nature of hydrogen bonding. This takes time to develop, so I will do this another time.
  • The New Dualism


    Computer memory is solid state and is designed differently from neural memory. Neural memory is designed by nature to be at high potential, while computer memory is designed to be at low potential. The higher potential neural memory makes it an accident waiting to happen. This is its charm. Evolution was about inducing; sensory systems, harnessing, and structuring these accidents.

    An analogy is having two rooms. The first room or computer room has the floor covered in mouse traps that are arranged in a fancy design, but none of the traps are set; low potential computer memory. The neutral room of arranged with mouse traps in another fancy design, but these traps are all set; under potential. If we move one trap in the computer room, we have a slightly new arrangement, If we do the same in the neural room, we can have a chain reaction, with the designed altered all by itself. If we add some inert structural elements, to the original neural design, we can structure the chain reaction.

    After many years of contemplation, consciousness appears to be more connected to the brain's water, than to the organic hardware of the brain. Water is critical to the workings of all aspects of life down to individual proteins and including neural memory. The water is fluid but it will align, in part, with the organics. However, unlike the organics, the extended water is not structurally dedicated; solid state. It is more fluid, and therefore can take advantage of the many unique properties of the liquid state when moving neural potential along the organic-water interface.

    In water, the hydrogen protons can quantum tunnel, and often do so in pairs, which is very unique. This is an expression of free energy potential, with quantum tunneling having the property of skipping steps in the normal hardware path. The water can sends signal beyond the fixed hardware; induce organic changes. This aspect of the physics borders on the metaphysical.

    The main problem is the biological sciences do not give water enough credit in terms of its contribution to life. If we took any aspect of life and removed the water and added any other solvent, nothing works properly and there is no life. If we add water, everything works and life appear. Water has ti finger in every pie. The result of not stressing water enough is the life science tends to fixate on the brain using the assumptions of the solid state; organic structures. The water adds liquid state parameters which adds features not found in solid state models like computers.

    The theory of entropy, for example, was originally developed for modeling steam engines. In the early days, when doing an energy balance around a steam engine, there was unaccounted for energy. Entropy was a term to define this unaccountable energy, that was measurable but not part of known theory. This original use of entropy was connected to some of the liquid state paradoxes.

    For example, a glass of water open to the air sees air pressure as well as surface tension. The water is under pressure while being in tension. If this was a sold, and you added pressure and tension; push and pull, the net affect is obtained by adding the force vectors.

    In the case of the glass of water, tension and pressure are not connected the same way as the solid. They are not exactly force vectors that add. The result is a different math result. If you use solid state assumptions; organic centric, something is missing. The metaphysical explanation senses the missing link, which is connected to liquid state water.
  • The New Dualism
    Another key is water. The brain is mostly water and nothing in life, down to the DNA, works properly if there is no water or not enough water. Life evolved in water an water is needed for all aspects of life to work properly.

    The liquid state, as expressed by the brain's water, has features that are not seen in solids and gases. The liquid state can create paradoxes in terms of physics.

    For example, a glass of water open to the atmosphere is under atmospheric pressure, while also displaying surface tension. Gases can only be under pressure, but not tension; partial pressure. Solids can be under tension or pressure, but not both at the same time, and reach steady state. Liquids can exhibit pressure and tension at steady state.

    If the free energy potential of the brain is being moved through the water, the liquid state adds a wild card in terms of standard physics which is usually modeled on gases or solids. Liquid water is also not hardware in the sense it is fluid and not solid like neurons.
  • The New Dualism
    One of the keys to understanding how the brain and mind works together is to compare neural to computer memory. The neurons of our brain exist at high potential. Neurons expend considerable energy; up to 90%, pumping and exchanging sodium and potassium cations. This energy intensive pumping action creates a free energy potential in the neuron membrane, which is a combination of lowered ion entropy and increased ion enthalpy. When neurons fire they attempt to lower this free energy potential. However, the neurons immediately work to restore the high potential through more pumping and exchange.

    Computer memory is opposite. It is designed to be at low potential. This is needed to make the memory stable in long term storage and during use. If computer memory was designed to be like neural memory; full of free energy, it would spontaneously change in storage, attempting to lower potential. While simply using the memory, would trigger a secondary chain reaction affect as the bits and bytes reorganize to lower potential.

    This could be a path toward intelligent computers. You would also need to develop a way to remember the initial state; use regular computer memory. You would need to develop a way to filter for useful changes stemming from spontaneous change, and then you would need to cyclically restore the initial state plus useful change, for another spontaneous change cycle, etc., etc.

    This spontaneous change cycle of neural memory is where the mind lies. Mind is connected to the free energy flow, that has the capacity to follow the hardware and also go where the hardware has not yet been; institute new change.

    An analogy is like a water fountain where water is pumped against gravity to create a potential. The water then lowers potential as it cascades downward working its way down the fountain to the pool below, only to be pumped upward again. This continuous action is always similar and defined by the shape of the fountain. But it is also always slightly different each time. Although, over time well worn paths for the bulk of the free energy flow will also appear in the hardware.
  • The Coin Flip
    Humans can come up with a number of theories for the same thing; creation of the universe. Nature does not work that way. The creation of the universe happened one way even of we are not sure what that one way was.

    The laws of physics are the same in all references, yet different theories use different mental references to explain the same things; string theory versus standard theory. These cannot both be true. They are mutually exclusive; the subjective faces on the dice.

    Nature weighs each side of its dice, differently by using universal potentials; loaded dice. Manmade theory changes the faces of the cards, to suit the theory; n-dimensions or 4-D. The nebulous nature of statistics, allows this misdirect to stand, since it is not designed to address the conceptual foundations on the card faces. It accepts the card faces as givens.

    If we took away statistics, this would throw sand in the gears. We would need to address the face of the cards. But then again, as you said, humans are designed to extrapolate nature; manmade, with manmade benefitting by statistics. My problem with statistics is not connected to manmade, but to natural, since statistics allows manmade card faces to infiltrate natural, until it appears to be real based on odds.

    For example, we can make diamonds in the lab using an hot anvil press at 1 million PSI. This can take hours instead of millions of years as is assumed for natural diamonds. Hours is manmade and millions years is natural.

    Say I decide nature to present an anvil press theory for natural diamonds, to prove that natural diamonds are also created in hours. Statistics can be used to make this appear real. I can run the same lab tests for both natural and manmade.

    If we get rid of statistics for natural things, we need to go back to the premises, and examine these, since not all face of cards use natural potentials. For manmade, statistics can be quite useful since the goal is a marketable product and not its detailed science. People are allowed to gamble if they chose, But God did not play dice with the natural universe; not statistical.
  • The Non-Physical
    If you look at the creative process, what exists in the mind of the creator, does not begin as being part of physical reality. It may have a future in reality but not in the present. For example, Einstein's Relativity began as an intuitive abstraction in his mind. It was always real, in essence, but it would only be measurable in the future. It started as metaphysical, before it was physical. Science could not measure it, at its conception in this brain, to know it will someday exist as physical reality.

    The problem is we learn science, after the science has become manifest in reality. We don't really teach the creative process, behind the invention, when the ideas exist only in as a hunch in mind. We don't teach about the idea, before it was proved according to the philosophy of science. As the abstraction, it does not yet come under the philosophy of science. However, this starting point is the place all new ideas begin. The current educational approach creates a misunderstanding in the student's mind, where it appears all science starts out tangible and there is only tangible.

    I am good at what may be. I used to be good at what already was. Metaphysical has a connection to a future not yet solidified physically in the present. Time is messed up between the two. Therefore, metaphysical appears to have a connection to time potential; potential to exist in the future.
  • What is the character of a racist?
    One of the main reasons for racism is connected to the ego. If one lacks individual self esteem, they will often use a group identity to compensate. They will use the group, as though it is an extension of themselves, as a way to enhance their self esteem.This may work, but it makes them vulnerable to anyone who discredits the group, since the insecure person will take it personally instead of as a groupie abstraction.

    This affect may have had roots in the needs of survival. As one person in ancients times, you were vulnerable to raiders, marauders and predators. If you we're part of a larger defense group, you are more secure. It is very important to maintain the group, for your own survival. If the group is attacked or defeated you are made vulnerable. This survival foundation has been extrapolated, to ego-centric needs.

    For example, the White Supremacist may build their self esteem defenses, by relating to being white. This team affect works in their minds, because they may say that most of the innovation and shakers and movers of modern western history were white. By relating to this group, they can sort of accept credit for all the accomplishments of anyone in the group. As an individual, there is no such connection for self esteem. But as the group, one can become buddies with Albert Einstein and George Washington all wrapped into one; my race.

    With the blacks the opposite dynamics is often in affect. This group has a lot of dark times. Relating to the group gives one the power of the group, in terms of the fortitude needed for suffering and the power to fight the man. If you attack the group, to release the individual from the spell, they will take it personally, since they need to wear the group like armor. They want to keep the armor shiny and colors pure for self defense.

    The antidote is to help children learn individual self esteem. The hurt that people feel about racism is connected to an internal fear of someone taking off their group armor. Individual self esteem, apart from the herd affect, is not vulnerable the same way.
  • The Goal of Art
    Art is everywhere, even if it is not called art. The new 2018 summer clothing styles are a type of art. This is art you wear. Good art induces an emotional reaction. New clothes induce positive feelings. Designer clothes give the best buzz. The former is individual and the latter is collective.

    The golden calf affect; god in the art, can induce unconscious projection, so one feels better if surrounded by the god in the clothes. The tribal hunter will wear the skin of his prey, to acquire the spirit of the animal; golden calf affect. The skin is not a god, but a trigger to what is inside of us.

    The reason this affects works is the unconscious mind is the original instinctive mind. Modern humans have become unnatural due to willpower and choice. There is a sense or need to return to its roots. Art brings us there, while culture swings the pendulum the other way. Fashion needs to reboot constantly to trigger the feelings since they are temporary.

    Some art brings the individual back to their roots for a short time, while other art brings the herd back, or warns the herd that there are hazards to instinct, ahead.

    Shoes are a common female art induction. Shoes fit on the feet, which touch the earth. Shoes are connected to natural instinct; of the earth. The problem is the golden calf induction is not permanent, but needs to be rebooted constantly; new shoes, since culture pulls women the other way, away from natural instinct. The shoe girl is often the cultural girl, not the natural girl. She has more unconscious potential for the trigger.
