Concentrating wealth subverts free enterprise

 Society has become so obsessed with money and material things that good sense about mankind being better off if people work for the social good as well as themselves is being lost. If  the masses can’t see the wood for the trees and political leaders aren’t able to comprehend what can make a nation better off in pursuit of their own, existential position, civilization can decline.

There are two basic forms of government for humanity these days; those that seek to concentrate wealth in a tiny minority and make slave laborers and happy work minions of everyone else, and those that prefer free enterprise and democracy with limits to capital acquisition. Plutocracy threatens the integrity of elections and enterprise with monopoly. 

Philosophy and the attack of natural history only atheists

Atheists tend toward reduction of philosophy to the field of natural history including philosophy that is regarded as having entirely physical, evolutionary causes. In a sense those that virtual worship natural history to the exclusion of objective conceptualizing of philosophical concepts for-themselves, to be  consistent, need eliminate rational thought as meaningful since that is physically deterministic phenomena. Philosophers can consider natural history inclusive of  evolution paradigmata, yet also consider modal logic paradigms of an infinite supreme being (God)  in regard to possible parameters of construction of infinite Universes and how an eternal being spins off temporal universes while being omniscient –i.e. do all Universes always exist and subjective minds experience them as temporal journeying through ( ref. Tegmark’s Level 4 Multiverse).

I.M.O. proper theology belongs in a spiritual site, as anti-spiritual atheism belongs rightly in some Satanic theology site. Philosophical consideration of infinite being in relation to the temporal is simply another interest of philosophy; atheists proselytizing on philosophy sites trying to prevent philosophy that does more than consider natural philosophy sectarian bores.

Why does God let evil exist? A philosophical account differs a lot from a theological opinion. For one thing, humans have free will. The Bible differentiates between evil (natural disasters) and wickedness (the evil men do) said J. Vernon McGee. Humans also have original sin and per Aquinas are totally depraved, and per Calvin need be saved by the grace of God for they have no merit and can't help themselves. The Universe in my opinion is a thermodynamic containment facility for beings ingesting energy and inclined to get rough to get the energy and blimp themselves up physically and socially; wickedness happens. A philosophical explanation is quite a bit different and too much to consider here.

Infinity at all points multiplying infinitely

Infinities are useful in constructing philosophical paradigms that can become dialogue in science fiction. Here are a few paragraphs on the topic of cosmology that I wrote.

"Quantum field theory; Q.F.T. describes some of the characteristics and strengths of quantum fields. Advanced Q.F.T. relates the behaviors of fields mathematically in relation to other fields occurring in four dimensions of space-time allowing fractional changes to the spin of constituent energy packets after they are converted into just numbers. One dimension points may be inducted with virtual fields and built between quantum field values with charges that adequately mirror quantum field objects; bringing into four dimensions and with higher maths and dimensions, virtual quantum fields.

“If numbers are fractions of a whole or have meaning only in relation to a series of numbers; infinities as it were in all directions except as arbitrary sets are delimiting paradigms Laura, why are numbers not infinite in quantity and size in every position and each dimension without any sort of delimiting structure at all? How can trans-finite series, as Cantor discovered, have any real or unique identity that would make them greater or lesser than every number that exists is an infinite continuum for all possible dimensions?”

“Victor, I would guess you wonder that because if numbers are the true foundation of all energy and mass, and gravity exists as well as thermodynamics in each universe, then obviously there is a process for changing sets that exist within the continuum of all possible numbers, at every possible location. Why would numbers develop temporally finite sets like squalls across an infinite sea? Are they echoes from the passage of an idea from the deity?

Why do numbers draw other positions together within a continuum that has infinite numbers at every location? What makes for an increase or decrease of value anywhere, if anyplace may as well be nowhere? 

Why would a spatial field; perhaps a field of charged virtual particles, upsurge like a hernia driving apart space-time, and appear within fields of a universe as elements with cardinal or ordinal differentiation in no-space? The quantity is infinite at every location, so the relative scalar difference of magnitude causality could be explained with dimensional intrusions.”

Considering Dasein

Wki has a good description of da (there) sein (to be). Heidegger didn't invent the term (Hegel used it too) yet reinterpreted it. To be (or not to be vis. Shakespeare) seems self-evident .

Heidegger may have considered criticism of social existence in a way similar to that of Kierkegaard criticizing 19th century German romanticism that followed Hegel. Socratic irony considered the superficiality of social existence as did Kierkegaard who regarded Socrates as having created a method of social analysis critical of ‘inauthentic being’.

Heidegger was initially appointed Minister of German education by the Nazis yet quit fairly soon upon discovering what a bunch of louts they were. He retired to a hut in the forest to work on philosophical projects and had the opportunity to think about inauthentic social existence and group think (Orwell later) or what Sartre might call the social dialectic and Nazi use-truths. 

Dasein

Theology and Multiverse inference remark 1

 An eternal universe generation of infinite numbers of universes is consistent with God's eternal nature. Heraclitus was a good pre-Socratic philosopher. One wonders how omniscience and omnipotence would create infinite numbers of Universes and let them always exist in His spirit and actualize them temporally for contingent other sentient beings etc to contemplate. The always in motion vs always at rest criterion of Parmenides and Heraclitus reminds me of Tegmark's level 4 Multiverse paradigm with overtones of Berkeleyan ideaism.

Determined to Be (poem)

  Colors rise full with time
swept together in soft signs
that drenches nothingness
emerald forests wood shine

  Lines woven into new forms
universal circle norms
at the edges of ever
life is an advancing storm

  Moving on some pieces stay
when others go to new days
oceans spin drift young foam crests
fly to endless, restless waves

  Tides send infinity
a shoreline for being free
constructions saved by the Lord
were determined to be.

Darwinism is an easy support for moral and philosophical sloth

People have commonly the causality of issues of politics and religion over history. Some blame religion for various European conflicts rather than individuals within organizations as if individuals were not responsible; as if abstract beliefs compelled individuals to cause harm. If the religion doesn't order injury to others, the fault lies within the people and not the stars Horatio. 

For the simple minded and unphilosophical it is easy to just take up Darwinism and leave reading the Bible and cosmology to someone else. Society is about a thousand from synthetic understanding of modern cosmology with deep Bible hermeneutics. Theologians and scientists together comprise ignorance of their own and the opposition force material more than a little. Yet average people have Darwin, television and automobiles and are content to leave things unexamined philosophically.    

  from wiki-"In Hitler's eyes, Christianity was a religion fit only for slaves; he detested its ethics in particular. Its teaching, he declared, was a rebellion against the natural law of selection by struggle and the survival of the fittest.

— Alan Bullock, Hitler: A Study in Tyranny "

from wiki- "However much Hitler on some occasions claimed to want a respite in the conflict [with the churches], his own inflammatory comments gave his underlings all the license they needed to turn up the heat on the 'Church Struggle', confident that they were working towards the Fuhrer...Hitler's impatience with the churches prompted frequent outbursts of hostility. In early 1937, he was declaring that 'Christianity was ripe for destruction' (Untergang), and that the churches must therefore yield to the 'primacy of the state', railing against 'the most horrible institution imaginable'

— Ian Kershaw, Hitler 1936–1945: Nemesis^[27]"

Sect. Blinken, Adolph Hitler and modern Germany don't (or didn't) want to share Ukraine with Russians

 It is worth remembering that Hitler was greeted as a liberator in Ukraine by the sort of people that greet Sect Blinken and get rockets from Britain. https://www.britannica.com/place/Ukraine/The-Nazi-occupation-of-Soviet-Ukraine

 When I learn of German and administration comments about Ukraine it makes me feel rather dirty because U.S. leadership is on the same side with Germans in trying to take all of Russia's Ukraine for themselves. My late father was a World war II vet of four years service. Never forget Baby Yar etc. What filthy blighters prefer aggressive war to peace and prosperity? The broadcast media just loves to hate on Russia and invest in Wall Street. How many people did Russia lose in WW II? Can the U.S.A. compare its own suffering to Russia's.? Russians had two wars with Germany in the 20th century on the allied side more or less in addition to the communist problems. Ganging up on Russia is stupid and just not morally righteous although Brevik might like it. I'd be inclined to comment that the U.S. is the wolf at the door, except I like wolves and wolves aren't murderers.

N.A\.T.O. and Wall Street's elite appear to fill the NAZI roles I.M.O. regarding Ukraine.

Causality and Special Relativity

 One may make certain assumptions regarding what causality is, or when it is, that may not be accurate. One tends to regard causality as an element occurring in time, or along a time line from alpha to omega, perhaps at some time omicron or whenever, and that might disregard the non-linear factors that coincide with an event that requires preceding 'causes' or conditions to exist. That is causality may proceed from numerous, perhaps an infinite number of axis or vectors such as x or x and y or x,y, z axes through infinity.

So one has the question of what a particular point event on a single infinite line has as qualities that differentiates it from preceding events on the continuum of time materially flowing (if time actually occurs as relative positions among numerous or plural ‘objects’ rather than as a hypothetical abstract dimension for mathematical purposes.

Then one wonders how an infinite timeline without beginning or end has differentiable causes, perhaps such as material forms that comprise quarks, strings or humans, or maybe sentient though in-itself, as it  develops through a Universe or Metaverse from eternity without beginning or end, yet strewn with countless Universes in theory that occur with some unusual relationship between themselves that some physical cosmologists speculate would exist like an eternally branching tree packed fractal like with infinite numbers of universes within and without itself because of the way ifninite dimensions can pack. That paradigm with quantum fields of some sort generating virtual particles that become entangled and locked into a steady state of matter that supposedly is a secondary quality of energy may not require causes to be.

 That may seem somewhat sketchy, yet causality may be something humans think about because of the appearance of pluralism rather than monism concerning mass and stars etc. Yet particles pick up mass in the Higgs field from their normal two-dimensional condition as energy as they slow to sub-light velocity as get the appearance of a third dimension (in time). It could be that the existence of the quantum field at some deep level is eternal and the appearance of various forms and change of matter is contingent being. The pre-Socratics Parmenides and Heraclitus were concerned with similar issues. God is spirit. Spirit differs from contingent mass and energy. Foe humans though observing mass and energy in various forms and considering the temporal forms that it takes are great inquires and even rather sporting. If God wills things to exist eternally he could. Cosmologists tend to believe that Universes, big bangs and inflatons may occur infinitely too. Lorentz transformations are interesting ways to consider where things are in time from the viewpoint of different observers. One might develop a similar equation to apply to the Metaverse and decide if anything was really a cause of anything else or if it all was a thought of God’s without beginning or end in time or its temporal forms.

Time seems inseparable from thermodynamic change, that is from the particles and energy that comprise it. Time may be equivalence of motion  of wavicles measured uniformly in a sector en mass. The Lorentz transformation  is a formula used in special relativity to coordinate perspectives of two different observers concerning time. Changes in physical systems occur in a given system of physical values often set by the local strength of gravity and pace of motion. Time is a measurement or quantification of the rate of change locally.

Yes the Bible is True

 Truth is a verification of a statement or proposition.Truth is relative and conditional except for One whom is everything in-himself (God). God precedes all contingent universes and fields, waves or forms. The One who eternally exists hasn't a need to verify Himself or contingent facts He created, or is. Truth is for lesser beings with the possibility of falsehood, uncertainty and error. Here today, gone tomorrow in a manner of speaking, is humanity as a blade of grass as Solomon noted. All is vanity. The Bible, or Biblos meaning little books, is true in recounting that ti,me in  Middle Eastern history. Most skeptics are searching for error rather than truth in it, and they tend to find that at least in misunderstanding it.

Jesus told Nicodemus that mankind need be born again, of the spirit.  Mankind is born in sin, materially embedded in a thermodynamic field. All mass exists because 2-dimensional energy packets slow to sub-light speed in the Higgs field getting a 3rd dimension along the line of travel. Adam and Eve picked up those thermodynamic traits that exist for all in the Higgs field when they flunked obeying God's instructions (sin) missing the mark of perfection required to be in the presence of God. Jesus Christ helps the elect with that, having shed His blood in atonement for the sins of people of faith in Him. Faith in the Lord brings one to spiritual rebirth, though still living in the thermodynamic, temporal field of being.
