Thank you, Marcin. I had to check this fact about Copernicus before. I recall from school being told the were a monk, but you must be right. It was not my intention to celebrate monks here, but note that the Church cannot be only demonized for being an oppressing institution over the centuries as many do today. It has also given many progressive minds to the word, incl. thinkers like Erasmus and Luther, who were not monks, but still had strong back in theology. You know what I mean. I am sorry for my mistakes. Thank you for your corrections.
Best wishes,
Plamen

Copernicus lived a quite ordinary life with his girlfriend who was taking care of his household and fortunately, his superiors did not make much noise about it.

Marcin‘s invitation to attend the 18th IWNC this weekend came to me like Galileo‘s message „eppur si muove“ this morning and pushed back other disturbing new about WEF and WHO(ever). I wish us we had more civil courage like the one of other two Renaissance monks (Nicolaus Copernicus and Giordano Bruno) demonstrated in hard times.

Our modern era deals with myriads of external agents simultaneously incl. EMF and insufficiently tested genetic therapy medications which directly affect our human nature that has slowly evolved over millions of years.

>>> Guy’s response which I forwarded to the FIS forum earlier makes an interesting bow and brings us back to the Bible story about the tree of knowledge with its forbidden fruits that made us recognize good and evil - the nucleus of the atom, that was called so to remain indivisible, and the nucleus of the living cell. „Don’t touch the running system,” a computer guy and a car mechanic told me a long time ago.

Now, LTE/6G wireless tech is planned for 2030 when human beings are going to become walking antennas and batteries like in the movie „The Matrix“. But we already know that radiation from 3G mobile phones kills stem cells in the bone marrow when carried in the pockets and generates tumors in the brain when talking as usual. Why do we do that? Why did we get used to technology that is not safe (enough)? It is human nature to be be curious and adventurous. What if this disappears?

>>> Early this morning two thoughts popped up in my mind. Who makes this happen? You might have experienced this phenomenon earlier. Suddenly, a stream of clear messages pours into your conscious mind. Did anybody open a channel? I don’t know. I woke up and began pondering on them.
>>>
>>> The first thought was about the Book of John/Revelation which tells us how the journey ends. This could be a bifurcation point where we could deepen the discussion about whole teachings as archetypes and the legacy of Christianity in the modern world. The second thought was about the possibly unnecessary worries we have with the (imposed (artificial)) crises, -- “polycrises” as Klaus Schwab explains us in his stereotype prophecies from Davos, -- we try to find a way out right now. Two weeks ago, I met one of you by coincidence led by unknown forces/circumstances. This happened to be someone who has come to the same solution I had (been poured with?) probably simultaneously with me, but came much further than I in its realization, because he did not discourage himself as I did. I hope that he will present us with this idea during our discussion; he is invited to join us. We can only wait. Yet, even if this does not happen, here is the conclusion/hypothesis/lesson I draw at that moment:
>>>
>>> Changes to remove the problems are already happening. Ideas are popping up in many minds simultaneously and solutions are on the way. Instead, we probably discuss in vain something like trying to explain QM in terms of classical mechanics. Yet, this discussion is still part of the action (potential) required to be discharged to make the necessary changes happen and everything that happened in the past in our shared universe was right and had to be so. What do you think?
>>>
>>> What were people doing in tough times before us? They prayed alone or in groups to God, the angels, and the saints, -- not necessary in a church, but anywhere, -- and this made them confident that they will be heard and that help will come. They believed that the mere act of praying is already fighting for them and for the positive outcome of the situation. What made them trust in the power of prayer, not only in Christianity, but in indigenous cultures as well? Did someone come behind the Global Consciousness project of Roger Nelson I mentioned earlier (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://noosphere.princeton.edu)?__;!!D9dNQwwGXtA!Rcr2t4txET6ei2XiTU3OjaflOjkerTK5vDPwXpzMOAYrnSD791KfXBgeFa9kzjc_FK59YIbVluYXmVASh1cVLcTx6dNj$ It is probably not a coincidence that Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, a Jesuit monk and scientist like Rudjer Boskovic, also a Jesuit monk and scientist who discovered the (EM) wave theory 100+ years before Faraday and Maxwell, is the author of the Noösphere idea mentioned earlier in this forum.

>>>> solo l’informazione misurata in bit di entropia è riconducibile alla logica aristotelico-binaria. Per il resto, inerente ai sistemi complessi ineliminabili, non v’ha informazione che non venga intesa con modalità contraddittorio-probabilistiche. Quindi la complessità presenta una limitazione intrinseca che implica la necessità di selezione, contingenza e rischio. In termini operativo-matematici adotto una matrice interattiva avente una teoria economica del valore multi-fattoriale (esagonale) che risente di un’indeterminazione simile a quella, anch’essa matriciale, di W.K. Heisenberg. Se non ricordo male, Ti ho fatto avere La scienza non può non essere umana, civile, sociale, economi(c)a, enigmatica, nobile e profetica [92] assai significativa in proposito. Inoltre, nella mail del 14.1. 2023 ho fatto intravedere come il sistema fabbrica-mercato (azienda) sia un processo di tras-in-formazione basato proprio sulle strutture dissipative che creano ordine (output o beni prodotti) dal disordine (costi degli input) mediante instabilità o fluttuazioni. Ora basta, perché sono impegnato a concludere la composizione di un libro (per me) molto importante.

For the rest, inherent to ineliminable complex systems, there is no information that is not understood in a contradictory-probabilistic way. So complexity has an inherent limitation that implies the need for selection, contingency and risk. In operational-mathematical terms, I adopt an interactive matrix having an economic theory of multi-factorial value (hexagonal) which suffers from an indeterminacy similar to that, also matrix-based, of W.K. Heisenberg. If I remember correctly, I made you have Science cannot fail to be human, civil, social, economic, enigmatic, noble and prophetic [92] very significant in this regard. Furthermore, in the email dated 14.1. 2023 I showed how the factory-market system (company) is a process of trans-in-formation based precisely on the dissipative structures that create order (output or goods produced) from disorder (input costs) through instability or fluctuations. That's enough, because I'm busy finishing the composition of a very important book (for me).

One might assume that the Tetralemma is already embodied in someone's DNA which is a rare mutation. Ted told us about the different thinking patterns of native folks and this is all true, but these ways of thinking did not penetrate much into our civilized world of today. Can we expect such an enhancement within the shortest period of time? Perhaps the only way to do this is genetic editing as the transhumanists promote.

One way out is to move to a more complex lemmic structure of thought, such as the Tetralemma of Nagarjuna, recently reinterpreted by Japanese Yamauchi Tokuryu (accessible in French). Does it help to talk about chicken and egg, chicken or egg, neither chicken nor egg, both chicken and egg? It does not, because "chicken" and "egg" are simple objects. But if you apply the principle of the Tetralemma to the contradictorial properties of information, it may. A suivre.

>>>>>> In fact, the suggestion that we know how life originated is not just an oversimplification, it is a completely misleading suggestion. DNA does not exist as a naked molecule. It only functions within the cell. Molecular mechanisms in the cell read the information in the DNA and translate this into hundreds of proteins used in the body for a myriad of functions. The transcription and translation of genetic information is achieved via a complex information-processing system utilizing many types of nucleic acids (mRNA, tRNA, and others) and many specific enzymes. These form a tightly integrated system of systems.

>>>>>> Do we know any other systems which work in an analogous self-referral way? Yes we do. Our everyday process of experience in which there is an observer, a process of observation, and an object of perception all integrated within our consciousness, our sense of self. In this analogy:

Cells are bound together, not just mechanistically, but they are part of a system that is alive in the sense that a person is alive—creative, intelligent, self-aware, emotional, and so on.

This also supports a consistent human identity which at the same time communicates intelligently with other humans. This points to the involvement of more universal abstract unified physical laws and also to the primary role of consciousness in human life and physiology.

It might, and research now shows it often does, go on producing toxic spike protein and sending it around the physiology for some time.

Any possible efficacy concerning recovery would first have to be assessed by research.

Nature’s designer went to great lengths to place the cell and especially the cell nucleus off limits to interference and modification. It is at the core of life and its perpetuation via reproduction. Nature similarly ring-fenced the nucleus of the atom for very good reasons. If we were unsure in any way before the pandemic about the safety of gene editing, there should be no doubt now. It should be off limits. Its continued use is an unfolding catastrophe.

There is view on history as a huge set of data as a multidimensional vector space which can be analyzed for regular patterns and anomalies in social and cultural organization in Europe during a period of decay and crises to reverse-engineer promising paths of success that enable society to recover and elevate on a higher level of moral, cultural, scientific and technological organization. The Christian monastic system was suggested as such a recovery model/motor. It not only enabled the integration of the invading barbarian tribes into a family of nations with common values, but also the transition of the achievements of the antiquity (architecture, art, literature, poetry, theatre, music, law, etc.) that were centered around celebrating deities, but then developed into what became humanistic in later centuries.

>>>>>>>> Now, is it possible to derive a pragmatic approach to solve our present problems when having these 3 juxtapositions at hand? What if the funny, superficial view that our modern techno-emancipated society has on the religious/philosophical controversies of the past is at the base of our own “root” problems of today? Did science not become a religion recently, when it comes to the public appearance of powerful and influential people like Dr. Fauci who became famous with his motto “Follow the science.” Is science supposed to be taken without questioning now? We have already witnessed a redefinition of what a “vaccine” is supposed to be in order to integrate an emergency authorized genetic therapy with quite different outcomes according to CDC. Yet this is not an isolated case. There is a whole history of manipulation of scientific truth to match the financial and political interests of the powerful class and the corporate capital. Our present era is literally shaken by biomedical fiascos which began with the suicides of whistleblowers (thalidomide, tobacco cancers), moved through the enforced distribution of Methylphenidate (Ritalin), a CNS stimulation drug, on adolescents in the 90's "decade of the brain", and ended in the current crisis of opioid painkillers (obscene business) and the unknowns in the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. At the same time, we witness the march of the destructive woke ideologies which enforce the revision of nearly everything, incl. history itself, initiated from the very same places that once brought Enlightenment in Europe, the great universities, which became incubators and laboratories of neo-barbarism and social disintegration. How can we overcome this decay? Any ideas?

>>>>>>>>>> Cari Jerry, Joseph e Plamen,
>>>>>>>>>> Vi debbo con ritardo (perché avevo superato le tre mail settimanali prescritte) due brevi risposte e l’integrazione di poche parole inerenti esclusivamente alle cose di mia pertinenza o conoscenza e relative a quanto ho scritto il Il 3 gennaio 2023, alle 22:59 e il 7 gennaio 2023 alle ore 18.18.
>>>>>>>>>> - Jerry tu, fra l’altro, concludi il tuo ragionamento così: «Non capisco il ragionamento di Prigogine che viene citato circa le"strutture dissipative" di Ilya Prigogine che creano ordine (neg-entropia) dal disordine (entropia) attraverso fluttuazioni o instabilità. COME “attraverso fluttuazioni o instabilità” è correlato al concetto di spontaneità. Ad esempio, in che modo il concetto di fluttuazioni si collega alla vecchia economia e quali concetti aggiuntivi collegano le fluttuazioni alla “ Nuova economia”?».
>>>>>>>>>> Per rispondere a queste domande ci vorrebbero molte pagine che non mi sono consentite. Quindi mi limito a ricordarTi quel che scrive I. Prigogine ne La Nuova Alleanza (PBE, Torino, 1993):
>>>>>>>>>> Capitolo quinto-I tre stadi della termodinamica- 3. Lontani dall’equilibrio. Le strutture dissipative (…) La termodinamica classica ci fornisce il concetto di “struttura di equilibrio”, come i cristalli. Le cellule di Bènard sono pure esempi di strutture, ma di natura assai diversa. Questa è la ragione per cui abbiamo introdotto il concetto di strutture dissipative. (…) Qui la dissipazione dell’energia e della materia (entropia) diventa in condizioni lontane dall’equilibrio, fonte di ordine (neg-entropia). (…) Le strutture dissipative corrispondono ad una forma di organizzazione super-molecolare. (…).
>>>>>>>>>> Capitolo sesto-L’ordine per fluttuazione (…). «Per dirlo in termini antropomorfici: lontano dall’equilibrio la materia comincia a “percepire il suo ambiente (…). Lontano dall’equilibrio le fluttuazioni ci permettono di usare le differenze dell’ambiente per produrre differenti strutture. Una volta di più vogliamo sottolineare l’importanza essenziale delle condizioni di lontananza dall’equilibrio: “comunicazione” e “percezione” sono le parole chiave del nuovo comportamento della materia lontano dall’equilibrio» (pp. 148 e 170-71).
>>>>>>>>>> Aggiungo o ricordo che la comunicazione prevede la possibilità che l’informazione sia talora definibile come entropia e come neg-entropia (e quindi inversamente proporzionale all’entropia), ciò dipende dal fatto che nel primo caso l’informazione è intesa solo come misura (in termini di bit) di probabilità di un evento all’interno di un sistema-fonte equiprobabile e nel secondo caso come informazione già selezionata, trasmessa e ricevuta, sovrapponendo alla fonte-sistema equiprobabile un s-codice che la riduce, riempiendola o svuotandola di significato semantico.
>>>>>>>>>> La vecchia economia di queste cose non s’è mai occupata, mentre la mia nuova economia è disseminata in dozzine di libri ai quali non posso fare altro che rinviare, con la modestia di sempre.
>>>>>>>>>> -Joseph, tu mi dici che «il quadro di Prigogine è molto incompleto È ciò che accade vicino all'equilibrionel processo mentale, dove i livelli energetici delle strutture sono vicini tra loro, che è importante quanto dove sono separati se non di più. Quanto al cambiamento, tutto il mio sistema logico-filosofico si potrebbe chiamare Logica del Cambiamento».
>>>>>>>>>> Non è meglio chiamare armonia, quello che tu chiami equilibrio? L’equilibrio è statico, senza vita, cadaverico sia in senso fisico o metaforico. Difatti, quanti in economia si sono incaponiti a fondare questa scienza sull’equilibrio ottimale e unico l’hanno privata di qualsiasi consistenza teorica. E poi, permettimi di sottolineare anche l’importanza del cambiamento della logica accostandolo al libricino di hegel sulla Scienza della logica.
>>>>>>>>>> - Infine, Plamen in data 7 gennaio 2023 alle ore 18.18 ti ho mandato una brevissima mail che si conclude così: «queste tre radici, telegraficamente espresse, confluiscono nella capacità-virtù del discernimento del bene e del male». Ora esprimo meno sinteticamente questa conclusione: «(…) confluiscono nella capacità virtù della coscienza che opera il discernimento del bene e del male scegliendo il primo v’ha la con-divisione della civiltà, scegliendo il secondo v’ha la divisione dell’inciviltà».
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>> Dear Jerry, Joseph and Plamen,
>>>>>>>>>> I owe you late (because I had exceeded the prescribed three weekly emails) two brief replies and the addition of del male scegliendo il primo v’ha la con-divisione della civiltà, scegliendo il secondo v’ha la divisione dell’inciviltà».a few words relating exclusively to things of my relevance or knowledge and related to what I wrote on January 3, 2023, at 10:59 pm and on 7 January 2023 at 6.18 pm.
>>>>>>>>>> - Jerry you, among other things, conclude your reasoning like this: «I don't understand Prigogine's reasoning that is quoted about Ilya Prigogine's "dissipative structures" that create order (neg-entropy) from disorder (entropy) through fluctuations or instability. HOW “through fluctuations or instability” is related to the concept of spontaneity. For example, how does the concept of fluctuations relate to the old economy and what additional concepts relate fluctuations to the 'New Economy'?
>>>>>>>>>> To answer these questions it would take many pages that are not allowed to me. So I limit myself to reminding you of what I. Prigogine writes in La Nuova Alleanza (PBE, Turin, 1993): Fifth chapter-The three stages of thermodynamics- 3. Far from equilibrium. Dissipative structures (…) Classical thermodynamics provides us with the concept of “equilibrium structure”, such as crystals. Benard's cells are also examples of structures, but of a very different nature. This is the reason why we have introduced the concept of dissipative structures. (…) Here the dissipation of energy and matter (entropy) becomes, in conditions far from equilibrium, a source of order (neg-entropy). (…) Dissipative structures correspond to a form of super-molecular organization. (…).
>>>>>>>>>> Sixth chapter-Order by fluctuation (…). «To put it in anthropomorphic terms: far from equilibrium, matter begins to "perceive its environment (...). Far from equilibrium, fluctuations allow us to use differences in the environment to produce different structures. Once again we want to underline the essential importance of the conditions of distance from equilibrium: "communication" and "perception" are the key words of the new behavior of matter away from equilibrium» (pp. 148 and 170-71).
>>>>>>>>>> I add or recall that the communication provides for the possibility that information can sometimes be defined as entropy and as neg-enropy (and therefore inversely proportional to the entropy), this depends on the fact that in the first case the information is understood only as a measure ( in terms of bits) of the probability of an event within an equiprobable source-system and in the second case as information already selected, transmitted and received, superimposing an s-code on the equiprobable source-system which reduces it, filling or emptying it of semantic meaning.
>>>>>>>>>> The old economy never dealt with these things, while my new economy is disseminated in dozens of books to which I can do nothing but refer, with the usual modesty.
>>>>>>>>>> -Joseph, you tell me that«the Prigogine picture is very incomplete. It is what happens near equilibrium in the mental process, where the energy levels of the structures are close to each other, which is as important as where they are separated if not more. As for change, my entire logical-philosophical system could be called the Logic of Change».
>>>>>>>>>> Isn't it better to call harmony, what you call balance? The balance is static, lifeless, cadaverous in both a physical and metaphorical sense. In fact, those in economics who have made a point of founding this science on the optimal and unique equilibrium have deprived it of any theoretical consistency. And then, let me also underline the importance of the change in logic by comparing it to Hegel's little book on the Science of Logic.
>>>>>>>>>> - Finally, Plamen, on 7 January 2023 at 18.18 I sent you a very short email which concludes as follows: «these three roots, expressed telegraphically, converge in the capacity-virtue of discerning good and evil». Now I express this conclusion less succinctly: «(…) virtues of the conscience which operate the discernment of good and evil flow into the capacity by choosing the first there is the sharing of civilization, choosing the second there is the division of incivility ».
