Topic: Subjectivity versus Objectivity.

Most people are subjectivists, not objectivists. Even most scientists are subjectivists - they subjectively dictate the objects and objectivity because of their methods and the fact that they have become more and more dependend on their money givers.

Topic: Philosophy versus Science.

This thread should complete the thread „Subjectivity versus Objectivity“ (**|**). Most scientists are subjectivists. They subjectively dictate the objects and objectivity because of their methods and the fact that they have become more and more dependend on their money givers. But what about philosophers for example? Are most of them subjectivists too?

Thesis:

Science is not philosophical enough and philosophy is not scientifical enough, because philosophy is more theoretical than science, and science is more empirical than philosophy.

„David Hilbert had already published what you now know as »General Relativity Theory«. And although using Newtonian physics didn't work to accurately predict Mercury's path, Einstein's general relativity field equations didn't work either. By considering Mercury, Einstein corrected his own theory, having to add a metric tensor (a »fudge factor«) in order to get the right result. It became common practice in Science to merely add in an unexplained, phenomenal »universal constant« into a relation in order to rectify equations with observations. To this day, it takes a philosopher, not a scientist, to give any semblance of competent justification for why those constants exist.

Science finds formulas with which to predict (often using inexplicable constants to rectify simpler ideas) and almost always for military purposes. They do not seek comprehension and answer to the deeper question, »Why«. And it is from that lack of understanding that Relativity Theory has been erroneously taught as an ontology rather than merely a useful formulaic perspective.

As an ontology, Relativity is broken.“ **

Correct.

Arminius wrote:

„Einstein had even two scientifical fathers who were also German: Georg Friedrich Bernhard Riemann (1826-1866) as the precursor of Einstein's relativity theory and David Hilbert (1862-1943) who submitted the theory of the general realativiy five days before Einstein did it.“ ** **

„Can anyone really be truly Subjectivist or Objectivist?
As is everyone not actually a combination of the two?“ **

That is trivial. It depends on the degree. A subjectivist is not the one who is not capable of being objective, and an objectivist is not the one who is not capable of being subjective.

Subjectivity is the epitome of what belongs to a subject. More extremely said: Subjectivity means that everything depends on the subject. Subjectivism teaches the universal subjectivity of the intellectual truth as well as the moral and aesthetic values and denies the absolute validity.

Objectivity is just the opposite of subjectivity. More extremely said: Objectivity means the lack of a subject. Objectivism teaches the universal objectivity as well as the neutrality, the practicality, also the capability of observing or/and representing objectively.

So, for example, if someone denies the absolute validity, then it does not mean that this one is not capable of observing or/and representing objectively. But it means that this one does not believe in an objective world in the sense that the objective world determines everything, even all subjects. A subjectivist believes in the theory that the subject determines the objects, even the whole world.

Subjectivity and objectivity are theoretical, spiritual, intellectual attitudes towards the determination of the world and the hotly favored answer to the question of the determination of the world.

The extreme form of subjectivism leads to solipsism in a logical sense, to egoism in an ethical sense.

I am not „complaining about it“, but you are complaining about something that does not fit in your „quiz“.

In fact, I decided to not „take the quiz“, because there are too many mistakes between the questions and the offered answers in that „quiz“.

You are asking:
„How many God(s) do you believe exist right now?“ **
To that question, you are offering e.g. the following nine answers:
- „My beliefs transcendent God.“ **
- „Everything is God.“ **
- „God exists outside the universe and is unconscious.“ **
- „Technology is God.“ **
- „Gods are not important.“ **
- „The belief that all Gods exist.“ **
- „An infinite amount of higher beings.“ **
- „Nobody can know whether God exists or not.“ **
- „None of these options.“ **

These answers have nothing to do with the „how many?“ question. In addition, some of them have nothing to do with God(s).

So two-thirds of your offered answers have nothing to do with your question.

So my perception of something ›bad‹ changes to a perception of something ›good‹ (or from negative to positive). I've learned that a particle cannot just change it's charge. How do you explain this change of PHT-values?« **

Although a valid and understandable question to ask, it poses a significant number of physics and philosophy issues to be addressed. The first of which is the philosophical issue of Theseus’ Ship - at what point of substitution do we say that it is a different ship?

To convert and electron into a positron, you would first have to remove the negativity of the electron. That would require that you obtain the technology to actually hold an electron in place while you manipulate it .. not currently possible. But even with that technology provided, an electron is made of nothing but negativity. Removing all of the negativity leaves absolutely nothing, no empty shape or form to be filled, but simply nothing at all. A positron can then be either created or more simply just moved into the former electron’s position. Then you could say that you "converted" the electron to a positron. But more likely, you are going to say that you simply replaced the electron after destroying it. It is actually just a matter of semantics, as is Theseus' Ship.

But perhaps the more relevant issue involves the sizes of the kinds of things we have been discussing.

When I used a woman as something from which a propagation of PHT might occur, I was very, very far from referring to a »subatomic particle«. The word »particle« merely refers to anything very tiny, but in the realm of physics, a »subatomic particle« is not merely tiny, but ultra, extremely tiny and more importantly, the smallest possible physical stable form. And as tiny as women might get, they very, very seriously come no where close to the smallest or simplest stable entities within the construct of perception.

The human eye can see something about 0.1 millimeters width (10^-4 meters). An atom, and all atoms are roughly the same size, is about 10^-10 meters, 0.0000000001 meters. That is a difference of about one MILLION times smaller than a human eye could see. But guess what. A proton subatomic particle is roughly 100,000 times smaller than that at about 10^15 meters. But it doesn't end there. An electron is roughly 1000 times smaller than that at 10^18 meters - 0.000000000000000001m.

That puts the electron and positron particles at roughly one MILLION times smaller than one MILLION times smaller than anything the human eye could ever see. The human mind cannot fathom such a range of size. And such is the case when it comes to the most fundamental, nearly nonconvertible, »particles« of PHT.

A single atom is made of many subatomic particles so far distant from each other than if you could actually see one electron, you could not see the orbited nucleus that is 1000 times larger because it would be 50,000 times further away. Molecules are then formed by atoms being fairly close together yet forming molecule chains anywhere from just a couple to trillions of atoms long. And from those are formed cells that are 10,000 times larger. And from trillions of those, is formed a woman. The difference in size and complexity is unfathomable.

The point is that the normal objects of perceived value, such as that woman, are invariably extremely complex combinations of much, much smaller intuitive PHT concerns, so small as to be undetectable by the conscious mind. They exist in the realm of the »subconscious« and even »unconscious« mind and are usually referred to a »an intuitive sense«. So whether the »subatomic« form of PHT particle could be converted is seriously irrelevant because there is nothing your conscious mind could perceive that comes anywhere close to being the most fundamental impetus for PHT evaluation. And that means that pretty much anything that you can perceive can be converted from a positive to negative PHT perception or vsvrsa. Smelly ugly things can become alluring attractive things ... or vsvrsa. It is all a matter of proper programming.

Reversing the PHT charge of most concerns would be about like reversing the static charge of a Van De Graaff generator. The reverse charged particles or waves must be pumped toward the object while the formers are pumped away. Such is referred to as a »catharsis«, flooding the mind with a particular »charge«.“ **

Maybe Mithus wants to compare that „change of PHT-values“ with a decay like the following one: After about 10.25 minutes a neutron (neutral charge) decays into a proton (positive charge), an electron (negative charge) and an antineutrino (no charge).

Would you (**) agree, if someone obejectively said that you were a subjectivist?

And what do you mean by „accomodate people“ (**) ...?

James S. Saint wrote:

„The intent of my last post was to express that one cannot compare the perception of a human with the behavior of a subatomic particle. Although one can compare such a perception with an amount of charge that, when very stable, can be thought of as a »particle that is charged«, like a charged spec of dust, just not subatomic because subatomic particles have no substructure like a nervous system interfering with their dynamics. The mind is still built upon and sensitive to its physical biochemical substrate, the brain, thus its perceptions are never as pure as physical subatomic particles.“ **

I agree, because I also think that „perceptions are never as pure as physical subatomic particle“, that it is not possible or at least quite difficult and also quite useless to compare the „perception of a human with the behavior of a subatomic particle“. But the point Mithus made could be the change from „positive“ to „negative“ and vice versa, from „neutral“ to „positive“ or „neagtive“ and vice versa, regardless whether subatomic particles behave in the same way or not, and if they do, then the comparison is useful, and if they do not do, then the comparison is useless.

James S. Saint wrote:

„Beyond that, one must be careful when speaking Quantum Particle Physics Ontology. The word »particle« in quantum physics is no more than a number used to account for an amount of something otherwise unaccounted for, much like the square root of a negative number - purely imaginary.

A neutrino is an actual physical particle, much like an electron void of charge. But an »anti-neutrino« is not an actual particle at all, not really even a virtual particle. The idea of »anti-neutrino« refers to a neutrino amount of energy that is missing from the surrounding environment. But quantum theory physicists do not like to refer to anything except as a »particle«, a quanta (in their mathematics).

A proton is at a lower entropy than a neutron. It has more energy than a neutron. So for them to say that a neutron »decays« into a proton, is another misuse of the language (they seem to love doing that - semantics). When a neutron becomes a proton, it absorbs a positron worth of charge and a neutrino amount of mass. So in Quantum Physics Ontology, there is a missing amount of charge and mass from the surrounding universe. So to call out the missing amount of positive charge, the same amount of negative charge is claimed to be generated into the universe from the change, an »electron«. And to call out the amount of missing mass, a »negative-mass« particle, an anti-neutrino is claimed. Neither the electron, nor the negative-mass particle physically exist as real particles. They are merely referred to as »particles« so as to account for the amount of missing charge and mass energy. An objective in Quantum Physics is to ensure that in all things, there is a zero-sum.

It is a little dangerous to the mind to casually step in and out of different ontologies (language issues and thus logic issues arise), especially ontologies that are incomplete, such as Quantum Physics and Relativity.“ **

Quantum Physics and Relativity are not complete, yes.

Yes, but for people like me, who are not familiar with Physics, it can become difficult to translate it all into the language of Psychology. In your ontology you wrote that »there is a limit to the rate of adding affects/influences, when affects merge in such a way as to require more than an infinite change rate, a maximum change rate point, MCR point, forms and as the participating affects continue to attempt adding at the same location, any additional followup propagating affects must wait for time to pass. - ›Inertia‹.«

I understand that this is the precondition for the forming of a particle, or, in other words, »the mass particle of the spirit«. What equals this MCR point in Psychology, which causes a delay of further influences? I imagine something like a sensory overload, which has an inhibiting effect to the receptivity of the mind, so that the mind has to filter out useful from useless information, in order to form an understanding.
But that might be completely wrong. Sorry, if I confuse this all.“ **

What could or should the analogy of the sensory be?

It is very plausible to have an hierarchical structure of several realms, so that it is not always possible to compare them with each other. An example is the brain: this biological (neurological) organ has no analogy in physics, because physics as such (as well as chemistry as such) does not belong to that organic realm. The level of the organic realm is higher than the inorganic realm, although the inorganic realm determines the organic realm. This means in the case of the brain example that the brain does not only exist of parts of the organic realm, cells for example, but also of parts of the inorganic realm, molecules and atoms for example.

So when it comes to the inorganic realm, it is difficult to find an analogy to the brain as a part of the organic realm. If you said that „the sun is the »brain« of the solar system (or the planetary system)“, then this would be „true“ only in a metaphorical sense. But if you said that „the brain (or the heart) is the »sun« of the organism“, then this would be „true“ not only in a metaphorical but also in a more ontological, a more real sense.

And if it is difficult to find an analogy to the organic realm in the inorganic realm, then it is even more difficult to find an analogy to the psycho-/sociological realm, not only because of the fact that you have to find an analogy to the psycho-/sociological realm in both the inorganic realm and the organic realm.

Back to the topic (**|**):

My philosophy has fundamentals that can empirically also be found in nature, a.k.a the universe, and theoretically also be found in cosmology and geology: (1) actualism, (2) exceptionalism, (3) cataclysm, (4) cyclicism.

I am celebrating my third „ILP-birthday“.

That’s no analogy!

Tattoos are ugly.

Hi. I hope that I will enjoy ILP.

Hi.

Communism isn't dead.

Religion has to do with faith on the one hand and with control on the other. A new religion originates before you can take away the old one.

Man wants to become god.

Topic: What is your favorite religion?

„Religion is a cultural system of behaviors and practices, world views, sacred texts, holy places, ethics, and societal organisation that relate humanity to what an anthropologist has called »an order of existence«. Different religions may or may not contain various elements, ranging from the »divine«, »sacred things«, »faith«, a »supernatural being or supernatural beings« or »some sort of ultimacy and transcendence that will provide norms and power for the rest of life«.“ **

So which one is it?

Topic: Where does art come from?

What do you think about the origin of art?

Are all these songs philosophical?

Hi, too! I would say it is, except maybe in the so called »Hermit Kingdom«, everywhelse where there still is an aftertaste for it, it presents a hybrid quality.“ **

What's „communism“ to you?
