The middle east has no other resources to exploit other than the sun and the oil they possess. That's like say fish are to be admired for exploiting w...

No, I'm saying that over the next century we will be rewiring and re-plumbing the entire planet, but that's a big job and doesn't happen according to ...

They only have the money to invest in green energy because they sell their oil to everyone else.
October 06, 2016 at 17:52
The irony is the Middle East is contributing to global warming and has money they must invest in their future.

Yin-yang dynamics rule the universe indicating a recursive systems logic must apply to everything imaginable and be so simple a child can understand w...

I don't see what the problem is. From the ground the earth looks flat, from orbit round, from far away a dimensionless point, and from the other side ...

What I'm describing is known as a recursive self-assembling analog "scalar" logic and they say the first thing you learn about systems logic is half t...

What is coming is a self-organizing scientific revolution that will transform the world with the new manufacturing capacities merely representing the ...

I couldn't agree with you more, but the problem is that kind of ground up infrastructure investment is the kind of thing that countries do when they a...

The law of identity is the issue and so long as metaphysics rely upon the principle of the excluded middle there's nothing to be done except split sem...

The entire world needs to be re-plumbed and re-wired and everybody is putting it off as long as they can waiting for the technology to mature a bit an...

Recent studies of the brain have shown that, contrary to long held belief, the immune system is central to the functioning of the brain and appears to...

My own view is that everything resembles the original creative impetus of the Big Bang and the human mind and brain are actually creative engines, hen...

I'm just too easily amused writing the Book That Can Never Be Written. :)

Bohr said it in another quantum universe and I'm sure it just caught up with him.
October 04, 2016 at 22:52
What if consciousness can't ultimately be identified.... What if it is merely the continuing evolution of the Big Bang? What if its just impossible to...

The Philosophy of Fun is Good... Sounds like a Hollywood comedy!

Again, if you can't use a search engine or a dictionary I give free lessons.

My own philosophy is based on primitive tribal potty humor where each word is treated as a variable with no intrinsic value. If you attempt to make th...

Nobody's ever heard of me and I'm rather partial to my own philosophy while, most other philosophers tend to bore me to death.

Popper is actually the quintessential academic clown bravely taking a pie-in-the-face literally for the cause of causality. You have to respect a popu...

His philosophy is derived from Plato's forms and merely extends it to the idea of a causal systems logic. That is, that rational laws rule the univers...

Pattern matching is synonymous with yin-yang dynamics and self-organizing systems logic and, in recent years, all the doubts about it applying to lang...

They're both causal theories that use this sort of geometric approach. Relativity is geometric as well and, from my point of view, its simply because ...

While the "architecture" of Constructal Theory is vague, its systems logic and epistemology are not the least bit vague. He shows how geometry and cha...

What Wittgenstein could not know at the time is he was describing a systems logic. A universal recursion in the law of identity, or paradox of existen...

It says if we knew of a better way to use language than to normally assume someone either means what they say or are joking we'd use it.
October 03, 2016 at 18:12
Sounds similar to Adrian Bejan's Constructal Theory which attempts to provide an amendment to the second law of thermodynamics and proposes even flow ...

Aristotle proved that the law of noncontradiction replies upon the law of identity if you want to get technical.

Any lynch mob can be polite until they decide not to be.

Since neither democrats nor republicans seem to be capable of making the distinction they are both part of the same lynch mob. The distinction, of cou...
