Schopenhauer

We know that our consciousness inhabits a physical body, similar to other physical objects only known as phenomena. Yet our consciousness is not commensurate with our body. Most of us possess the power of voluntary motion. We usually are not aware of our lungs' breath, or our heartbeat, unless our attention is called to it. Our ability to control either is limited. Our kidneys command our attention on their schedule rather than one we choose. Few of us have any idea what our livers are doing right now, though this organ is as needful as lungs, heart, or kidneys. The conscious mind is the servant, not the master, of these and other organs. These organs have an agenda which the conscious mind did not choose, and has limited power over.

Of course!

I do not agree with the idea of sex having become pleasant to humans, in order to encourage us to reproduce, and help the process of survival. I believe finding, and seeking, gratification in sexual scenarios and practices, and being passionate about the other possibilities of mating activities, are the inevitable fruit of another evolving phenomenon: the human brain.

It is, indeed, interesting that the pleasurable act of reproduction among humans could have played a role in our survival, as a type of species, on this planet, but I definitely do not see any relation between a coincidental fact and the way humans perceive, understand and experience sexuality as an enjoyable matter, because there have been many people who have found close to zero appeal in sex for various different reasons, but have still managed to reproduce fairly well, throughout our history.
At the same time, many sides of human sexuality have almost nothing to do with breeding and survival.

Religious texts are good sources for studying the perspective of a group of individuals, which usually happens to be a dominant force in their society, in regards to this subject at certain points in our intellectual evolution, which is directly related to the evolution of the brain as a computational organ at our service.


There can never be any certainty about the past history, since not everything has been documented, and not all that have been, have survived up to an age when they could be known to a wider group of people, and analyzed by more experts.
It would be a good idea to model the different historical facts known to us. After an exhaustive analysis, assign a different term, of a different weight, to each fact, and use predicting algorithms to verify the past (which would not be difficult to test on the past few hundred years since more information about the different states of the planet and humans has been documented), and foresee the future.

I tend to see the violence inflicted by different political powers around the world, for unjust reasons, and useless purpose, as childish stunts of sheer stupidity.
So I ignore them, and charge to declare a greater war... on ignorance which can manifest in countless shapes and forms.

Only acquiring knowledge, and drawing "educated" and testable conclusions, can counter ignorance.
It is best for people taking this path to be detatched from any type of bias towards any subject matter, so that the process of analysis produces less erroneous results.

Brief

The networks on each level are made up of groups of smaller networks which create results of different strength, with one or more (up to n-1) dominant terms.
Points of importance: The voltages created by different networks, the different types of connection between the networks, the geometrical characteristics of the networks and connections...


The error, created by the dynamic nature of the systems, which in turn is caused by the existing uncertainties on smaller scales, introduces the instability, and uncertainties, of the larger scale.

Different principles, facts and realities cannot all be true, but they can all point to a true direction.

The sum (combination) of terms of different power, with varying coefficients. Introduce an approptiate error detection, and management, method and guide the direction of change.

Memories do die, in fact, cells die. Or go through such a drastic change, that they lose their previous functionality, and take on a new one.

Where are the limits? Where are the points of importance? How are they defined, and calculated? How do they relate to each other?
