Five Dimensional Universe Selection from Infinite Dimensions?

The nature of time is challenging for some Christians-Since apologists have sought to renormalize Genesis for cosmology even seeking to find vestiges of instant creation in the Universe to support their interpretation of Genesis cosmology disconformity with scientific paradigmata have increased. Yet is not only Usherians that have difficulties with the philosophical implications of new cosmology. I recently learned of a new version of a five-dimensional Universe inclusive of time as a dimension. The August 2014 issue of Scientific American featured. The idea by Afshordi, Mann and Pourhasan is that a 5 dimension Universe with four spatial dimensions may have had a four-dimensional star collapse into a black hole with and event horizon. Our experienced three-dimensional Universe (and another dimension of time) exists at that event horizon somewhat like a holograph would appear to outside observers. This is one way that science can interpret the observable data of the apparent Universe-it is quote interesting to read about, although I have a differnet paradigm for Genesis that I wrote of in Creation and Cosmos; The Literal Values of Genesis.

I have had quite a few ideas about the directionality of gravity attracting mass to itself. The concept of singularities of mass-energy arise as a logical extrapolation of concatenated force, yet of course like the speed of light there may be some ultimate limit to gravitational force whereat it switches off. Mass could free-fall in another direction beyond that threshold, be repulsed or convert into something else like energy. If there are an infinite number of extra dimensions the potential configurations in which any given configuration of mass, energy and dimensions exist may be selected in a vary convoluted process-simple for God may be yet challenging beyond belief for human or even computational discernment of veritas.

I believe it was while considering the outlook of angels that I regarded their trans-dimensional propensity or not readily morphing to a consideration of dimension and their number. Why not an infinite number of dimensions as an infinite series? One already has the example of Cantor's trans-finite sets and perhaps trans-finite dimension sets too, if the string and membrane theory concept that some dimensions may be larger or smaller, embedded to transcendent and interacting with others. Perhaps multiple dimensions interacting produce a different sort of compound dimension in effect creating qualitative as well as quantitative distinctions.

I ought to point out that time is relative in reference frames with extra-dimensions. Time may cohere with the direction or thermodynamic order of mass and energy. If an event horizon has a Universe on it that seems holographic to outside observers, its time continuum is proximally that of the field of mass-energy comprising the event horizon/bubble/membrane. The thermodynamic processes and time of other regions located within or without that event horizon could be configured at their own pace. Plainly though, it might be possible to have to different thermodynamic-time reference systems interacting within a given field locally changing the pace and nature of the passage of time-just as different gravitational fields may interact such as the moon and sun upon the Earth. Christians ought not to be too troubled about interpreting time parameters for Genesis I think-it is enoughthat atheists disinterpret that for-themselves.

In the Revelation angels are referred to quite a lot. They seem almost to be a referent-term for a sector or nexus of sentience within the spiritual realm with the possibility that human sentience in some way is a sub-category of particular angels (perhaps with a higher dimensional protocol). John takes letters to the angels of churches such as that of Smyrna. Considering how natural philosophy describing the natural world intersects the spiritual plane of metaphysical, theological and philosophical interest is interesting. Consideration of the metaphysics of dimensions is fascinating yet less important except as it informs one of inferences and possibilities about God's way of being.

God probably is the issuer of dimensions as non-contingent being. There may be a rational mechanics of relations amidst dimensions from divine design rather than slots in empty space into which dimensions place mass and energy. Paul Erhenfrest saw the necessity of three spatial dimensions for matter to fully cohere, yet there may be more templates and courses for the interaction of mass and energy in other forms with more or fewer dimensions.

One must wonder if dimensions cohere in empty space as qualities pre-existing mass and energy or if mass and energy naturally arrange into three dimensional configurations with one more of time. That is the simplistic way to view the matter perhaps however there is no necessity that it is so. It is somewhat more challenging to imagine membranes with endowments of mass colliding that appear to be of four dimensions at intersections of collisions (something like when the Andromeda Galaxy intersects with the Milky Way in a few billion years). In some way one would want to speculate that membranes are a natural form for dimensions to take and for mass and energy to arrange themselves in-yet that shape of flatness perhaps as a one-dimension brane seems to be inconsistent with Occam's razor. Dimensions would need to become membranes of finite area and yet appear simultaneously with an initial endowment of mass (unless God placed it there) and/or energy, or mass and /or energy would need to arise without dimensions and slip into membranes (plural) that would later intersect, or mass and/ or energy might naturally evolve membranes that would collide or rebound as developed artifacts of a primary, evolved form. The evolution of membranes or dimensions probably shouldn't be regarded as a trivial feature ancillary to the existence of mass and or energy.

I still like Leibniz's spiritual monad theory of divine interaction with energy/mass. It is easy to take that as a general paradigm for God's spiritual issuance of forms that appear as energy-mass. Basic partitioned fields seem to need to set apart energy-mass from infinities anyway. Quantum valence shells and quantum uncertainty within a field or fields with constructions that have ordinal and finite set matrices of force seems a practical way of supporting a steady-state of mass entangled Universe.

Phase Two of the Alaska State Museum-Library-Archive Video

Phase two of the construction of a new Alaska State Library-Museum-Archive in Juneau is under way with a new museum featuring authentic dead, stuffed eagles motionless yet pristine perched permanently in a facsimile tree. With the old Museum removed the new Museum is rising next to the Archive-Library and Prospector Hotel with good food and view of Gastineau Channel to the south.

Federal Judges Corrupt Equal Protection Clause Again

Corrupt Federal Judges have struck again forcing homosexual marriage upon Alaska throwing out the state's heterosexual marriage law. I order to overcome the legacy of slavery and racial segregation certain laws were adumbrated under the rubrick of equal protection. These laws were in effect irrational, untruthful gerrymandering of law to benefit particular classes of people out of phase with the philosophically vague concept of equal protection of law. 

The equal protection clause was inserted into the 14^th amendment in 1868 by a court seeking to correct the problem of slavery-they could never foresee it's broad application attacking the rationality of law and the constitution itself.

Misuse and abuse of the Equal Protection concept of Law concept of the Constitution has made a farce of the concept of equal legal protection. I.Q. tests, grades and measures used to discriminate against the stupid must be ruled unconstitutional. The dumb have as much right to be lawyers and judges as the smart-yea-even more so, for there are more of them. Many have already been serving as federal judges and are seeking to expand application of the equal protection umbrella of the U.S. Constitution (it's not a real umbrella).

In the brave new homosexual paradigm laws may not be specifically designed to serve particular interests of people. Citizens and non-citizens must be regarded as abstract entities such as a number '1' with entirely the same value and identity. Different physical standards for men and women must be erased from every social application-women must compete as equals of men. Women should be regarded as inferior men that need unequal protection to score as well on physical testing standards. Equal protection can be assured by destroying social structures that create different economic outcomes such as the N.F.L. where the men get all the money because of sophisticated unequal protection of the law.

Hate crimes laws that fail to protect the rights of citizens to hate anyone equally without giving preferential, special legal protections to specific classes of citizens exemplify the unequal gerrymandering of the corrupted federal judiciary today. Citizens and non-citizens must be free to hate American politicians and judges regardless of race, color, creed or national origin without concern that some hate-worthy classes have unconstitutional, special and favored legal protections. Accurate legal application of equal protection of law a work of love. Some may wish that D.C. were vaporized to spare the poor that cannot afford to retire in some other nation (they are not all the same) onerous edicts of the corrupt federal judiciary because not all Americans fondle the same even so some suck up federal butch decrees with a smile.

The consequences of heavy American drug use have taken their toll in degrading federal judicial philosophical competence-perhaps its institutionally inherited to have a court with its mind on drugs. The President admitted heavy marijuana and cocaine use until whenever-college? So the intellectual paradigm for failing to comprehend fine legal and philosophical categories was set...all the marks look the same to me expresses the fried mind approach to law and crime of the prescient federal judiciary

To be consistent with the same-citizen approach to law-an approach of dubious value-the courts will need to return the nation to a fundamentalist conservative paradigm eliminating all of the unequal laws passed by congress that have recognized and created different categories and responses to citizens. States will all need to get rid of their constitutions if they have anything different from either the federal or another state constitution so the people are not discriminated against by unequal legal codes. Affirmative action laws benefiting one sex or race violate equal protection of citizens. Progressive taxation that victimizes the rich putting a higher tax rate upon some citizens than others must be cast aside. The Uniform Code of Military Justice that puts a different legal system on some Americans enslaved by the federal government with unfair contracts must be abandoned. Illegal aliens must have full rights to vote and run for political office as citizens in order to have equal legal protection as citizens. Criminals must be released from prisons where they can become the victims of crimes and be deprived of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Fire departments that primary protect at public expense the property of the rich and upper middle class ecosphere exploiters must be erased from the shameful hall of historical discrimination against the poor so equal protection of the law can return with renormalization to America and Mexico.

Social security must be abolished because it treats the old different that other America citizens. Children are unfairly denied equal protection of the law to draw social security retirement benefits to pay for pre-school. The Federal highway lobby must be abolished because it denies equal protection to responsible citizens that don't own cars and attack the environment with global warming gases from auto exhaust. Airport construction support must stop because it discriminates against the poor whom have little use of those facilities. Tax and other benefits for marriage must stop as they discriminate against single citizens. Corporations cannot be legally regarded as individuals by the law anymore as at present because it dehumanizes and degrades humanity to an abstract entity and equal of a corporation.

Wealth cannot be concentrated because it allows unequal political power and abuse of natural resources. Public schools cannot exist because they discriminate against the inalienable right of ignorance and equal protection from indoctrination by others (cf. Pink Floyd Brick-in-the-Wall Decision). Building higher than two stories cannot be constructed because they unfairly block the view of grass-roots Americans. Buildings wider than twelve feet cannot be put up because they block equal freedom of motion of grass-roots Americans to walk-about. Anyone including illegal aliens will need to have an equal right to judge Americans or anyone else around the globe in double-Shari'a law secularized down and adapted fully to homo-perverting utility giving equal protection of the law within '1' code as the founders or framers intended. Medals giving by Congress including purple hearts must stop as they give unequal social recognition to some favored citizens over others. Purple unfairly discriminates against the six other primary colors besides not to mention black and white.

'

Though federal judges consistently suck on decision to overturn the traditional sanctity of marriage between a man and woman with it's particular biological-social foundation and corrupt the important-to-ordinary people criteria supporting security and inheritance, that's consistent with the power of wealth to gut anything that protects the rights of anyone from being available for sale and takeover by the rich and concentrated wealth. In Adam Smiths day aristocracy made the possibility of the bourgeois owning everything improbable-so far as to be beyond regard as a valid possibility. Today though capitalism has concentrated wealth and power so far beyond the social criteria of Smith's time that everything including real estate has a price on it. Without substantial areas including some private and public property that are never available for market disposal free enterprise and the security of citizens are co-opted by concentrated wealth-even globally. The consequence is that political and legal reason decays and the citizenry become enslaved to a plutonomy, oligarchy or dictatorship.

Perhaps the sole remedy for states let remaining marriages exist and abolish new ones. If marriage has outlasted its valid applications and is corrupted and adulterated beyond truth new forms of ensnaring citizens in binding legal contracts could be made by state's legislatures. State's; the laboratories of democracy, need to be as bold in finding new ways around challenges of federal corruption as the corrupt federal judiciary is in finding ways to make a mockery of marriage.

Secular Ways of Power (the Sword) Have Increased

Concentration of wealth and political power aren't new of course. They are functions of original sin applied to current economics. Economics are inextricably related to politics and environment, and as Clauswitz noted politics is a continuation of war through other means. The way of the world and the power of the sword expressed in the Roman military power is not nearly as plainly separable today from church affairs. Driving a car and burning fuel may give money to those sponsoring terrorism, enhance global warming or oppressive intellectuals developing alternate energy.The man speaking of peace may order the deaths of hundreds of thousands or millions while the politician advocating military intervention may actually reduce human casualties. Creating a new drug to save thousands from death may allow more to starve. Drilling for oil to power ambulances may create thousands of drownings from sea level rises and hurricanes. It is challenging to separated the thousands of ways of harming individuals with modern technology, networking and political power that did not exist in former generations from things that grow like gardens for example (excluding genetically engineered food used as bioweapons of course).


If large numbers of tropical fish will disappear by 2050 due to global warming that may stimulate more mass migration north and conflict south as people move to avoid starving. Failures by first world citizens of democracy to take responsibility for food production and replacement methods of aquaculture in the tropics could cause loss of life. Political inactivism or pursuit of the tangential homoculture agenda while delegating authority to the billionaires and stock networks to purchase political influence further assigns malevolent  neglect to the populace even as they seek to blame their ruling evil agents avarcice.

Mass media may indoctrinate people and work may require allegiance to evil or worldliness. Christian pastors separate from day to day economic facts may not comprehend the pressures of secular economy and fail to develop adequate Christian priesthood of believers training and economic-social reinforcing organizational structure themselves. Paul worked as a skilled tradesman and understood the present economy-he was not just a tithed priest-adviser. People may be conformed to the image of the world-spirit and find themselves in a totalized social environment where all are required to be in effect enslaved to the corporate and secular ruling power.

I quoted  Karl Barth on an historical example in this post...  http://garycgibson.blogspot.com/2014/10/original-sin-consolidating-wealth-and.html

Original Sin Consolidating Wealth and Political Power

Nothing can positively be said of the Federal Court's forcing of homosexual marriage upon the people. It is an era of concentrating wealth and political power corrupting the polity, social moral norms and degrading the prospects and reason of the people. Hitler's S.A. of led by the homosexual Ernst Rohm had a comparable radicalism. The Catholic Church in Mussolini's fascist state had a certain perhaps necessary recalcitrance about expressing anti-fascist policy. A polity incapable of violent revolt because of the concentration of military power is inevitably doomed to experience the oppression and dictates of ruling elites. Americans are permitted to have democracy so long as they acquiesce in the will of the rich to inimically degrade and dehumanize them. This is not the first instance of systematic political corruption that is economically inefficient for the masses.

Human nature expressing itself in capitalism substantively co-opts the beneficial aspects of free enterprise negating the hypothetical inventions and individual allocations of opportunity and competition with proprietary exploitation of advantage. The advantaged purge the less advantaged from the field and import cheap labor not able to expect government benefits or a right to vote. Serialized social-economic purges of theoretical political peers permit concentration of wealth and power in elites. As the broadcast media is controlled by concentrated power a unofficial yet viable purge of antipathetic political opinion occurs. Propaganda in support of the new social order becomes normalized.

Human nature seeks to totalize advantage over all land. Concentrated wealth would own every possible place anyone might exist without paying tribute to the rich power of control. Monarchy and aristocracy had absolute power over people regarded as subjects. Subjects and those that cannot exist in freedom any place without paying rent for existing to the concentrated power are effectively slaves. Though the developing new planetary slavery may not form on a particularly racist basis with equal opportunity enslavement for all, may yet be a developing condition wherein no human might exist free of enslavement to the Plutonomy.

Karl Barth wrote of a prior era...quote-

 ”^{Only the clever English, perhaps one of the few nations really gifted politically foresaw in time the folly of this development, though they were just as penetrated by the spirit of absolutism as the rest, and introduced checks which spared them the catastrophe to which the system by its nature must lead.}

^{This political absolutism from above has, as is known, two variants. They have in fact crossed and mingled in many ways; their roots are one, but they may be clearly distinguished. The principle 'through power to power' had of course also a non-military aspect. This could consist in the princely display of splendour and pomp at which Louis XIV was so inventive, even creative, setting a baleful example which was widely followed. The name of Versailles has thrice had great historical significance resulting in grave consequences. The first time it was as the prototype and symbol of a princely attitude to life and form of life, based on unqualified power. From this life there flowed a brilliance, like the glory of a god, into architecture, the gardens and parks, the decoration in the houses, into comforts and enjoyments of every kind, but above all into the transitory but all the more intoxicating splendour of the festivities. Far beyond the boundaries of France there arose small and miniature imitations of Versailles whose princely and noble inhabitants attempted, with more or less luck and dignity and taste, to emulate Louis XIV.}

^{After his death the Regent Philip of Orleans, then Louis' grandson, Louis XV, in Germany Augustus the Strong of Saxony, Eberhard Ludwig, Karl Alexander, and Karl Eugen of Wurtemberg, Max Emanuel and Karl Theodor of Bavaria, Ludwig IX of Hesse, and many others, were absolute princes of this kind. The notorious immorality, even debauchery, the just as notorious financial transactions, and the scandalous arbitrariness of justice at all these courts, was perhaps not the necessary, but as has happened in all similar phenomena in history the practical, consequence of the representation which one thought to be owing and that not without some logic to the conception of the prince by divine right.”}

^{“The idea inevitably presupposed great demands upon the economy of the country, which were made with an astonishing unconcern not to speak of the sons of Hesse and Brunswick who were sold out of hand to America! And ironically enough the command was in fact often not in the hands of its true possessor, but largely and for all to see in those of a woman sometimes, admittedly, in those of a woman far from unfitted for such an office, but only in a derivative sense can her rule ever have been described as by the grace of God. But all these things cannot and must not blind us to the tremendous stimulus imparted to economic and artistic life by the fantastic burgeoning of absolutism.}

^{Neither must we forget that the luxury these potentates cultivated, though so dubious in many respects, acted in practice as a safety valve and corrective against the possibility of a universal state of war, which should really have been the logical consequence of the general principle 'through power to power' and of dynastic cabinet politics.}

^{If it had not been for the Sun-king's notion of the unfolding of power and the relative enervation which was involved herein, Louis himself and all the other God-kings might well with the absolute power they had arrogated have reduced Europe to even greater disasters than those they did in fact cause. Lastly it should be added that anyone who failed to sense not only the pathos imparted by lavishness of ideas, space and materials, but the underlying, unending and truly insatiable yearning in the midst of sensual delight which emanates from every line and form of the art of the age would be guilty of badly misunderstanding those artistic and architectural monuments of that time which still hold a meaning for us. It is this eternal yearning which is the style's inmost beauty, a beauty peculiarly moving for all the horror which is sometimes apt to seize the beholder.}

^{Besides this kind of political absolutism there was another, going by the name of enlightened absolutism. It is possible for the 'through power to power' principle to manifest itself in depth rather than in extent, rationally rather than aesthetically. In that case it takes the form of experiments in social reform in the technical advance of civilization, in agriculture, industry and in the economic sphere in general, in health measures and policies designed to benefit the population as a whole. There are attempts to improve the state of the law, but also to advance the arts and sciences, to raise the general standard of education in short all sorts of measures tending to the so-called 'welfare' of the subjects of the state. In chastising a Jew, Frederick William I says: 'You should love me rather than fear me, love me, I say! ‘”}

^{“There is no blinking the fact, either, that Frederick's state had to be a welfare state a Frederick naturally sees farther than the usual run of despots in order to be precisely as welfare state a state worshipping power, an absolute state. The fact remains that the measure of wisdom and rectitude with which the king happened to be endowed, together with the limitations imposed upon these qualities by his highly individual character, his taste and his whims limitations common to every mortal had the significance of destiny for his people, his country and for every individual within his realms a destiny which like God could bless or punish, might cherish or destroy, and could do so without let of appeal to any higher law.”}

^{It is of course possible to question whether that other policy, pursued in the Middle Ages in the name of the imperial ideal, ever became a reality anywhere. But there was at least a chance that it might be realized while it was still at least an active point of reference (question-able in itself but at least fairly well-defined) within the framework of the imperial ideal. It was when this fell away that the realization of such a policy became impossible. For when the prince's power was made absolute, a step which brought with it the death of the imperial ideal, the prerequisite of such a policy, the very notion of a concrete responsibility, of a higher authority, was removed also, and in its place there arose the state without a master, or alternatively the state governed by an arbitrary master, beneath whose sway, even if he were the best of all possible monarchs, justice was a matter of pure chance.}

^{We have taken the one kind of political absolutist, the absolute prince, as the first for discussion. The second kind, his perfectly legitimate brother, his alter ego, following in his footsteps as inevitably as the darkness following the light, as the thunder following the lightning, is the absolute revolutionary or perhaps it would be better to say, since his predecessor was already a revolutionary the revolutionary from below, the representative of the lower class, who conceiving those above him to have injured him in his rights, and even to have deprived him of them, takes steps to defend himself by snatching the power lying in the hands of the governing princes in order that he might now determine without let of appeal what is right and just, because he in his turn has the power in his hands. The roles are reversed. Whereas before it had been the prince who had declared himself to be identical with the state, it was now the people, the 'nation', as it at this time began to be called, who assumed the title by means of a simple inversion of Louis XIV's dictum. This happened true to type in Paris on the 17th June, 1789. The representatives of the so-called third estate, who were, be it remembered, the delegates of that section of the population of France which was in the overwhelming majority, formed themselves into a 'National Assembly 9 and three days later declared with a collective oath, that they were determined in the teeth of all opposition never to disband until they had given the state a new constitution.}

^{Everything that happened afterwards, up to the execution of Louis XVI and beyond, was a direct result of this event. Its inner logic is, however, as follows. (We shall restrict ourselves in the following to the two classic revolutionary documents, the Declaration of Independence of the United States of America of June 1776 and the Statement of Human and Civil Rights ratified by the French National Assembly in August 1789). According to the revolutionary doctrine there exists a self-evident truth which can and must be recognized and announced en presence et sous les auspices de verre supreme:}

^{1. All men are equal, i.e. created with equal rights (Am.), or}

^{alternatively (as in the Fr.), born with equal rights.}

^{2. These equal rights are of nature, inalienable, sacred (Fr.), endowed by their creator (Am.).}

^{3. Their names are freedom, property, security and the right to protect oneself from violence (Fr.) or: life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness (Am.). The French statement goes on to make a special point of saying that freedom consists in being able to do anything which does not harm anybody and is not as such forbidden by law. And it also considers the right to property important enough to describe it in a special last article as inviolable et sacral}

^{4. It is in order to protect these rights that governments are instituted among men (Am.). Le but de toute association publique est la conservation des droits . . . de I'homme (Fr.).}

^{5. Governments derive their just authority from the consent of the}

^{governed. Le principe de toute souverainite' reside essentiellement dans la nation. All authority exercised by individuals or corporate bodies stems expressly from the people.}

^{6. The law is V expression de la volonte finale so all must have a part in making it, all are equal in its eyes and every office and honour for which it provides are as a matter of principle open to all.}

^{7. Whenever a form of government becomes injurious to the aims}

^{of the state, i.e. to the upholding of the rights aforementioned it is the people's right to remove it and replace it by a government more conducive to their safety and happiness. It will be advisable not to proceed too hastily in such an event, but once it has become plain that a government is seeking to establish absolute despotism it is not only the citizen's right but his duty to free himself of its yoke.”-end quote}

An excerpt from Temporal Cross Currents

At the Plastic Alpha Tholoi the three descended to the Prajol line and were beset by an odd purple haze twilighting the horizon of Plastic Alpha at the shore of the Sea of Regulus. The haze was especially strange for Miami just released from inert confinement in the stone prison cube.

“This must be the work of Moflunk, bent servant of Renflume Universe. When I refused to surrender my workers for conversion here and after bribery and torture failed to gain my compliance to the will of Renflume I was downloaded into the Ugarit Prison Cube.”

Moflunk appeared emerging as a transcendent pattern in the Sea of Regulus before them. A luminescent green scum floating upon the waters with a variegated sheen like a hydrocarbon slick supported ideas, images, patterns and shapes that swirled like an infinite depth of four-dimensional images upon a three-dimensional surface.

The mind of Moflunk had a tonal quality that was dwarfed, muted and yet with an explosive desire to control. It was subtly nuanced, persuasive, arrogant and demanding increased energy throughput. His voice broke as the sound of ten thousand harmonized trashcan lids dropping into place...

”This world is now the property of Renflume Universe and is my personal responsibility. You will immediately surrender all sentient workers with materialbodies to Chief of Adaptation Inbar at the restuffing plants yonder within two days. All qualified will be uploaded to the Quantum Probability Ship within two days. Shirkers will be tortured and terminated without a semblance of pleasure!”

Evdolp Stella thought to Movin Saytrap and Stephen Miami; “Intelligent Destiny is a Dynatron sparsely populated in communities that permit continuity of naturally evolving ecosystems. Renflume Universe and Moflunk are separate from reality within Universe (1) so far as is possible without death, existing within it as shadows outside its natural physical parameters. Their works on Plastic Alpha must be the surface of a retrograde megalomania lusting for the Universe.”

Movin thought to Stella “How will we defend Evdolp?”

She replied, “We must wait to understand more. Nowhere the enemy is, is invulnerable to counterattack.”

When Moflunk upsurged his being into the Sea of Regulus he violated an

integral element of the Civilization. Moflunk annexed it with field enclosure to the Quantum Probability Ship’s compresent M-matrix. The Ship is the transcendent body of Renflume and Moflunk.”

Picking up an anti-matter explosive device from the construction site Movin said “You mean that the Sea of Regulus is now possessed by and one with the Quantum Probability Ship, Renflume Renflume and Moflunk?”

“Probably, Movin.”

Stephen Miami thought to Movin “Be careful with that little package, it might go off. Those anti-matter demolitions should be handled only by experts.”

“Sure, I know Stephen, yek a shock wave front to compact material in pure string balls that were then pitched to a space-time dimensional accelerator and swatted over a time-dimensional wall with force field impact could be worse. Someone like Renflume just might try it you know. The megalomaniac's will to reconfigure the Universe isn’t too much different than reconfiguring minds with particle beam thought shapers. I don’t prefer to be stuffed and uploaded to the Quantum Probability Ship two days hence.

Angels and Infinite Dimensions

I believe it was while considering the outlook of angels that I regarded their trans-dimensional propensity or not readily morphing to a consideration of dimension and their number. Why not an infinite number of dimensions as an infinite series? One already has the example of Cantor's trans-finite sets and perhaps trans-finite dimension sets too, if the string and membrane theory concept that some dimensions may be larger or smaller, embedded to transcendent and interacting with others. Perhaps multiple dimensions interacting produce a different sort of compound dimension in effect creating qualitative as well as quantitative distinctions.

In the Revelation angels are referred to quite a lot. They seem almost to be a referent-term for a sector or nexus of sentience within the spiritual realm with the possibility that human sentience in some way is a sub-category of particular angels (perhaps with a higher dimensional protocol). John takes letters to the angels of churches such as that of Smyrna. Considering how natural philosophy describing the natural world intersects the spiritual plane of metaphysical, theological and philosophical interest is interesting. Consideration of the metaphysics of dimensions is fascinating yet less important except as it informs one of inferences and possibilities about God's way of being.

God probably is the issuer of dimensions as non-contingent being. There may be a rational mechanics of relations amidst dimensions from divine design rather than slots in empty space into which dimensions place mass and energy. Paul Erhenfrest saw the necessity of four dimensions for matter to fully cohere, yet there may be more templates and courses for the interaction of mass and energy in other forms with more or fewer dimensions.

One must wonder if dimensions cohere in empty space as qualities pre-existing mass and energy or if mass and energy naturally arrange into three dimensional configurations with one more of time. That is the simplistic way to view the matter perhaps however there is no necessity that it is so. It is somewhat more challenging to imagine membranes with endowments of mass colliding that appear to be of four dimensions at intersections of collisions (something like when the Andromeda Galaxy intersects with the Milky Way in a few billion years). In some way one would want to speculate that membranes are a natural form for dimensions to take and for mass and energy to arrange themselves in-yet that shape of flatness perhaps as a one-dimension brane seems to be inconsistent with Occam's razor. Dimensions would need to become membranes of finite area and yet appear simultaneously with an initial endowment of mass (unless God placed it there) and/or energy, or mass and /or energy would need to arise without dimensions and slip into membranes (plural) that would later intersect, or mass and/ or energy might naturally evolve membranes that would collide or rebound as developed artifacts of a primary, evolved form. The evolution of membranes or dimensions probably shouldn't be regarded as a trivial feature ancillary to the existence of mass and or energy.

I still like Leibniz's spiritual monad theory of divine interaction with energy/mass. It is easy to take that as a general paradigm for God's spiritual issuance of forms that appear as energy-mass. Basic partitioned fields seem to need to set apart energy-mass from infinities anyway. Quantum valence shells and quantum uncertainty within a field or fields with constructions that have ordinal and finite set matrices of force seems a practical way of supporting a steady-state of mass entangled Universe.

U.S. Foreign and Domestic Policy SNAFU

The foreign and domestic policies of the U.S. Government seem to be in a normal situation of confusion and flux. In the midst of the smoke and mirrors there is a vacuum in policy with inertial drift  just to reinforce the god of Wall Street from whence all prosperity flows so long as the Federal Reserve gives it trillions of zero interest cash. Washington D.C. can always count on China and cheap labor from Mexico to give American investors a lift. One wonders where it will all lead-perhaps to Chief Justice Robert's stock market investments that must have gone up with the rest of the investor rich the past several years.

America's Middle East policy is no more than incompetent. A good policy leader could square away that dry as dust region in 3 to 6 months rather easily. Expanding Kurdistan as a Northern state of Iraq and diving Syria in three part with a quarter for Israel would keep the joint hopping. As Honda or Sony once said lead or get out of the way-the U.S.A. does neither.

Assad needs a Shi'a-Christian third. Kurdistan needs a third and The Muslim Brotherhood need a third and that should be joined with the Palestinian West Bank entity and renamed The New Terrorist Entity. Israel needs a security enclave fat enough to make it stronger rather than weak looking. A strong and fat Israel is not so much a target as a weak 120 pound weakling Israel with terrorist Muslims close to Jerusalem. Israel should expand beyond the Golan Heights and on the West Bank about 10 miles. Israel's security buffer will be deducted from the overall land grant of all partners.

Plainly the U.S.A. needs to lead reinforcement of Assad's Syrian security and compel the Palestinians to move into co-fraternal territoriality with the Muslim Brotherhood in The New Terrorist Entity. President Obama nearly succeeded in establishing a lasting Muslim Brotherhood state dictatorship in Egypt-the Morsi government was just rash in trashing the constitution and drawing a military response. The lesson learned will be that in the next round where populism returns the Brotherhood to power they must slowly erode the constitution and infiltrate the military making it impossible for liberals to kick them out with a coup. One wonders if the President is a closet Muslim having grown up in a Sunni nation.

American white women have been the decisive driving force in moving the nation toward the homosexual agenda the past two decades by voting consistently against the Republican Party. That direction continues with little chance of change. The Supreme Court has refused to hear a case on state's banns on homosexual marriages this term-bans that have been overturned in about half the states by Federal Judges whom have become the most effective recruiters for Muslim fundamentalist terrorists in the global war between straits and queers. The U.S. Government under the Obama administration has moved toward the wild queer side of the street in the battle between homo-sex and hetero-sex votaries. One wonders if the President is a Sunni Muslim.

With the nation's economy edging toward a catastrophe theory flip-flop anytime with the vast public debt and continuing degradation of the work force's compensation (Wal-mart just cut health benefits to employees with less than full time jobs), the environment in decay and the border ineffectively defended it seems that the policy is toward making the U.S.A. a second world nation run by sycophants of global plutocrats. The President can ask his friend Warren Buffet about that.

Build Center for West African Virus Control With F.B.I. Field Office

Ebola probably won't be the final deadly virus originating in West Africa. Ad hoc responses that arrive piecemeal will be added to react and slow contagion from the international community, so why not build a Center for Disease Control and Study of Deadly Viruses in West Africa with an F.B.I. field office-hardened and bomb resistant, on the campus nearby to help with field investigations security and look for the odd bomber developing weapons delivery packages for D.C.?

A level 3 viral research and treatment center staffed by international researchers and doctors perhaps with a thousand beds for patients might react quicker and more effectively to the next deadly disease. With the accelerated transmission of contagion in the global era on site research of likely locations for disease development could be helpful. China can take care of itself. It is Africa that is lacking substantive facilities for disease prevention. The international community should put such a package together and keep and eye out for Albert Shabop, whom might dissent with violence.
