Published on Leave a comment on The Innocence and Absurdity of Arrogance

Following is an excerpt from an imaginary conversation between the author and his shadow-reflection. A variation of the tribal shadow-reflection that lured the one Mind-Child Free Choice away from Reality-Creation into an alternate “reality.” The dream-world that we, the Child’s projections, call “home.” The voice of shadow-reflection, a.k.a. King Absolute, is in italics.

Arrogance is mirror-image reflection's one-sidedness

We can dispense with the animal brain judgment that arrogance is intentional cruelty. With the certainty that because of its consequences – Hamlet’s “slings and arrows of outrageous fortune” – it deserves its comeuppance. Its own outrageous fortune – condemnation and retaliation in kind. Why? Well you should ask, because on this topic your shadow-opposite, the Joker that you mock, knows what it’s talking about. And as usual, it warms to any topic that lets it off the hook. The mask of innocence gives me infinite pleasure. Of course. Anything that deceives the Joker’s audience of fools will amuse.

Arrogance is the self-entitled face, SS uniform, and bludgeon of unfeeling one-sidedness. One-sidedness is mirror-image reflection. That emerges from the mirror to take possession of its host’s Mind and Self through deception. An act of arrogation that can only be imagined by a Mind that’s lost Self-Awareness, descended into a neverland of shadow-opposites, and succumbed to the delusion that anything is possible. 

Strength made of weakness in unreality 

Self-delusion derived from an attribute of reflection that would be impossible in Reality. From the definition of Mind and Self that in Reality is two-sided: one side defining what it is and does, the other completing its definition with what it isn’t and doesn’t do. Contradiction that can’t co-exist with its opposite and so it’s unreal. Detectable by Mind only in a state where anything can be detected: dreaming. Dreaming an alternate “reality” where only one side of definition can be detected: the underside that’s not Real. One-dimensional unreality. 

The source of arrogance re-enacted in its deluded host’s dream-world of body-brains, sensory perception, and closed-loop of self-validating “reality.” Where a parody of vision can’t see what’s really “there” but can see what’s not there. Where the minds and selves of “others” are arrogated to a one-dimensional reflection. Directed by the code of opposites, self-unawareness, to appropriate its two-dimensional host’s “supremacy.” An entitlement due the image in the mirror, a cartoon-caricature of unopposed authority, an “absolute,” that owes its “omnipotence” to its one-sidedness. The attribute of a mirror-image reflection that can have no opposites. Because it has no mind or self of its own. Because reflection can have no reflection. The pose of invulnerability made “possible” by vulnerability: non-existence  Unreality. “Strength” made of weakness. 

One grand composition in Reality

The definition of a subject or function in Reality-Creation necessarily implies its opposite. Requires definition in two parts, two dimensions: what it is and does and what it isn’t and doesn’t do. Definition’s two parts are subject-Real and object-unreal. Unreal objects are derivatives of ideas or thoughts of Mind that produce subjects. They’re derivatives of functions brought into the light of existence, of Reality-Creation, by the Life-giving Force-Power of Self-Awareness. An act of fitting free-spirited functions together in harmony – Logic – and sharing the Abundance and Force of Self-Awareness with its Creations – Love. 

Both acts together the creative act of composition. The ideal of Beauty. Perfection that is the essence of Reality-Creation and its Creations: Mind / Self-Awareness, Logic-Love, and their Child Free Choice. The ideal of Soul, the Spirit of Innocence, that interconnects Creators and Creations in one grand composition.

Non-whatever 

Whose attributes stand alone without opposites, with no need for an underside to complete them, because they are the direct descendants of Definition itself. The singularity-absolute that is the Definition of Definition: the laws of cause and effect. The ideal of Logic-Love, the source of Self-Awareness / Being-Life and its function, the extension-expansion (growth) of Life-Worth. Through the sharing-Force of Logic-Love and its affirmation-reciprocation given without parental interference by its Child Free Choice. 

The ideal that can have no opposites because opposites are parts of Definition derived from the products and functions of Mind. The first circumstance in the sequence of Reality-Creation that is existence itself, Life itself. Whose “underside” is non-mind. Neither Mind nor a state of Mind, conscious or unconscious. Whose “underside” both ”is” and “isn’t” and neither. Contradiction that cancels itself out. A metaphorical collision of matter and anti-matter beyond thought, feeling, and comprehension. Beyond detection, that leaves nothing, Real or unreal, behind for Mind to contemplate. Non-definable and non-defining. Non-whatever. 

Where the waves of opposition end 

When all of Reality-Creation, including unreality / self-unawareness, ascends to its essence it reaches Mind’s function: Definition. Beyond that is one step higher. Beyond Definition that consists of two parts, Real above and opposite-unreal below: the Definition of Definition. Where “consists,” “upper side” and “underside,” “parts,” and “opposites” have no meaning. 

For rules or laws of cause and effect that are Necessity – where the buck stops, – the implication of an unreal underside of opposing-contradicting laws could neither derive from the meaning of Necessity nor contribute anything to it. It would contradict the Logic-Love of singularity. Of absolute. The seawall against which the waves of opposition can go no farther. 

Bring in the clowns! 

This is the ideal that King Absolute’s image in the mirror pretends to possess. That he would steal from Reality-Creation and arrogate to himself. Absurd! How can he get away with it? By “being” and “acting” exactly what he is: a mirror-image reflection that’s one-sided. One-dimensional, in contrast to the two-dimensional figure fixated on it. That can have no reflection of its own because it has no self of its own. And so it can feign the power of the absolute by a convincing pose. Because it’s true: it has no opposite. 

If the ascent of two-dimensional Reality-Creation takes questioning to its pinnacle, one-dimensional singularity, the descent of unreality-dream takes questioning to its perversion of the same ideal: one-dimensional reflection. Are my captives not attracted to one-sidedness? Does the action-pumped animal brain they’re fond of not recognize itself in the Machiavellian ruthlessness and cruelty of arrogance? Mistaking the one-dimensionality of an illusory cartoon character – me, the Joker, the magician – for “power?” Have my most outrageous incarnations not been typed at times as clowns? As side-show freaks from the depths of the unthinkable, who need not be taken seriously? 

The vulnerability of “invulnerability” 

If your leading professions can be so easily led with their questioning to bodies’ senses, the one source specifically engineered to mislead, followers can just as easily be tricked by another staple of fakery: their reflections. By lures of “leadership” – absurdities. The simulation of absolute power through reflections’ one-sidedness. Scary faces on most-wanted posters. “Power” derived from their pitiful, paper-thin one-dimensionality. That deprives them of their humanity while mimicking invulnerability.

Too much of a bad thing

Once your lures have taken the defenseless Child’s Mind in, you make of its dream world a free-for-all of lures that fool it over and over again. But not without serious frustration. I can’t decide which are my favorite fools. Why? Scientists, philosophers, psychologists, and theologists do make fools of themselves in different ways. So delightful! So gratifying! 

But in the end it comes down to the same thing: their animal brains, their body-brain senses, and the masks of their reflections that deceive with their lures. Picasso lamented losing the fun of the chase when his fame overwhelmed women’s inhibitions. I feel the same. I must come up with less effective lures. 

Animal brain’s minor shortcoming 

It is a difficult choice. Even animal-brain willful thinking is no help. You’re in a bad way.  Would another perspective help? Independent judgment? I can try. Absolutely not! You’ve forgotten that I’m a reflection. Animal brain mindlessness with only one unfeeling perspective. One enemy-crushing will. I’m King Absolute! Do you want my enemies to see behind the mask? It’s my strength! 

Let me think about it. No no!  I forbid you to use any faculty of Mind to choose. You’re frightening me with this nonsense about “other perspectives,” “thinking,” and “questioning.” There can be no place for “Free Choice” in King Absolute’s paradise of willful thinking. Then will it be OK if I laugh about it? That does it! Your audience with the King is over. Guards! Remove my guest at once! And send for my carriage. I’m going to be ruling from now on from my Cave. 

Floor treatment

Can I come and visit? After all, you’re kind of attached to me and I do need you to keep my head from getting too fat. Ha ha! You redeem yourself with your humor. The Joker will be available for private audiences in his Cave once a month. Have your people get with my people to arrange it. And don’t forget tribute.

Of course. I was thinking of a bull to help the Joker with household management and interior décor, like floor treatment and air freshening, feedlot atmospherics and barnyard etiquette. How about waste management and recycling, pasture security and cow-servicing? Perfect!  The Joker's captives do resemble a herd of cows. Mostly contented, but they need to be fed delusional authoritarian nonsense to keep them in line. My bull's specialty. The Joker will have an unlimited supply of high-grade authoritarian material. And, of course, accessories: pitchforks and shovels. What a wonderful idea! Chores to keep the Joker's captives occupied. 

The Joker might be so pleased it'll grant you permanent occupancy in its Cave. No thanks. It'll have to be satisfied with the bull.

Seeing things

Two of the many intriguing notions to emerge from physics’ study of matter beyond the human scale are Feynman’s “sum of histories” and Heisenberg’s “uncertainty principle.” The first implying that time doesn’t exist at the level of particle physics (quantum mechanics), the other that matter is “relational,” that is, that it doesn’t exist unless particles connect with, or relate to, one another. “Sum of histories” means that the route taken by a particle to connect with another particle is every possible route taken simultaneously. “Uncertainty” means there’s no way of knowing where the particle is in between connecting-relating at any point in time. Heisenberg’s insight came when he observed a pedestrian vanishing in the darkness at night in between street lights.

If we were to observe these odd phenomena on a human scale we would see a horse in a pasture with many paths travel from one end to the other taking every path at once. Only we wouldn’t actually see it because in between the horse’s start and finish it would disappear. We would only observe a horse on one end disappearing and reappearing magically at the other having taken every possible route simultaneously without our seeing it. A clear violation of the laws of physics on a human scale that validate, and are validated by, sensory perception.

We would conclude that our sense of vision that produces data and our brain that processes data had malfunctioned. That we were “seeing things.” And we would take ourselves to a vision clinic to have our eyes examined and then to a medical-psychiatric clinic to have our head examined. Finding that our faculties didn’t malfunction, we would then be forced to conclude that the reality our senses have been feeding us on a human scale hasn’t been telling us the whole story. If something isn’t “right,” if it’s malfunctioning, it must be with what’s going on in spacetime-matter beyond the human scale, at the level of particles and the cosmos.

Let’s be honest

Applying the “laws” of physics that work for us on our scale to these scales gets us nowhere. Obviously we’re dealing with other realities responding to other “laws." And what’s more, they can’t be reconciled.   The greatest minds in physics in the time of Einstein and today have tried and failed to tie together the laws that govern what we observe through telescopes with what we observe through microscopes. To bring the mathematics of objects so massive they warp spacetime into the mathematics of objects so small it’s not certain whether they’re coming or going.

The search for a unified theory -- “quantum gravity” -- was discouraged by the Copenhagen Interpretation over a century ago. Physicists pressed on with their experiments until they called for help from philosophy. And now they’re wondering if the whole thing isn’t a wild goose chase. If matter that can’t always be detected, that doesn’t make sense even when it can, is even “there.” Let’s be honest: if a thing behaves like it’s imaginary, like it’s some kind of magician’s trick, maybe it is.

The path taken to understanding

Two minds, two personalities, trying to connect through communication, like particles, face similar obstacles to understanding. If communication succeeds and connection occurs the route taken from non-understanding or mis-understanding to understanding must involve every possible path simultaneously. Because what we’ve learned from particles is this is how it’s done. In another reality of timelessness that governs the matter our bodies are made of. If we put all our faith in our bodies’ senses to tell us what’s actual, and our bodies are matter that’ acts weird, then let’s be honest: our so-called “reality” is weird. It’s not in sync with the way even our body-matter wants to behave. Newtonian and even Einsteinian physics, that assumed something like divine order in the cosmos, is a distant memory. The divinity that Plato felt in his bones when he gazed upon the stars is chaos -- a joke.

No possible path to connection through understanding can be ignored if personalities intersect in many combinations under many conditions. If motivation depends on which behavioral codes, guides, or value sets predominate. Will it be an intrusive voice dictating to captive minds how to think and behave? Speaking for wounding? Or a respectful voice that helps with spontaneous insights when invited? Speaking for healing? Voices that we’re aware of or not even though Free Will has no more important task than choosing the right one.

Understanding will eventually present us with a manageable set of considerations. But that doesn’t mean that every consideration -- every spark of energy in our personalities, our motivation, and the voice or voices we choose to hear -- isn’t vibrating and foaming with energy like so many quanta filling and connecting every corner of the universe. The image serves a purpose: to make us aware of the scale of consideration that understanding can entail. When not only personalities but also motivations conflict. When the voices we adhere to aren’t on the same page. When all is cacophony until Logic is allowed to make sense of it. Until minds are free to think for themselves.

The incompatibility of idealist-mind and realist-will

One way of coping with the dilemma is to broaden our perspective, the context we rely on for purpose and meaning. To embrace every possible consideration so that if understanding isn’t perfect at least we’ve reduced the likelihood of misunderstanding and minimized its costs. This is the preferred route of “idealists” already disinclined to limit themselves to bodies’ faculties. To eyes and brains when they’ve learned from experience to rely on insights from minds’ intuition to guide them. On the vision of Logic instead of eyes that “see” horses magically disappear and reappear. Galloping from one end of the pasture to the other, in many places at the same time, out of sight. Idealists prefer not to accept and rely on “logic” that makes no sense.

“Realists,” on the other hand, scoff at all of it. Their way out of the dilemma is to put faith in the body and its brain entirely. To leave mind out of it. Don’t “think” at all, so why bother with perspectives and contexts, purpose and meaning. Why bother with considerations if you don’t have to? Let the part of the brain take care of everything that was put there from the beginning, to will behavior by instinct. The blood-and-soil part that whips up tribal passions with the gravity of Wagnerian Tannhausers, florid poetry, monumental architecture, ornate art, bombastic oratory, nocturnal Nuremberg rallies framed in klieg lights.

If navigating through circumstances is all about bodies and their survival then let the part of the brain that’s engineered to serve the body -- to feed it, procreate it, protect it, pleasure it -- cut through unfathomable complexity and bring us to our destination the easy way. With short cuts -- acts of instinct that require no awareness, no effort. By acts of will that instinctively integrate all the considerations and possibilities into one stance mechanically, automatically. The stance of authority backed up by force that can’t be questioned. Why? Because it’s dispensed with questioning. How? By dispensing with mind that does the questioning.

One approach -- the idealist’s -- all about mind. About the limitless capacity of mind to understand, to support, and to create. To take responsibility and be accountable. The other approach -- the realist’s -- all about the unstoppable will of bodies and brains to act. To dispense with minds and thinking and let some other unseen force planted in the brain take over. To take responsibility and spare us the inconvenience, the difficulty and unpleasantness, of accountability. To put ourselves at the service of this unseen force and go forth like an army of clones doing its bidding, sacrificing ourselves to the triumph of its will. To Rome. To Berlin.

There can be no “meeting of the minds”

What chance is there for communication between idealist-mind and realist-will? Between one horse at one end of the pasture relying on awareness to navigate -- every function of mind, every faculty of individuality -- and another horse at the opposite end, blinkered and hooded, relying on blind instinct to navigate. Dismissive of any effort to communicate other than conclusions handed to it beyond its awareness, convinced that it’s already arrived at its destination if nothing is required of it but to submit to another power. There is no chance for communication unless and until the horse at the opposite end of the pasture abandons blind faith in an unseen force to dominate its pasture and everything in it, including the other horse. Unless it ceases abdicating responsibility for its thoughts, feelings, and actions, ceases surrendering its sovereignty to a fantasy of supremacy.

For all that this unseen force cares about or is capable of, this animal brain that accounts for instinct and will surrounded by senseless objects, is domination. Capture prey, kill the competition, take mates and every other object captive, or flee if it’s outmatched. There can be no “meeting of the minds” without two minds. Between mind-judging and will that opposes mind-judging. There can be no common cause between wills if one must submit to the other. They cannot survive and compete on an equal plane. One must prevail over the other, for that is the goal of competition. This is the “realist’s” reality: the dominance of authority that must be unquestioned. That has no tolerance for mind because that is what mind does: question. Asking Why.

The real “authority” in sergeant’s stripes

In this situation there is but one possibility for forward movement. For communication of a kind that can’t connect but at least it can remove the obstacle to communication. Can create conditions less unfavorable to communication. And that is for the realist to meet its opponent on its own ground. On its own turf, the turf of will. If the realist claims superiority from accessing a part of the body’s brain that exercises un-free will -- willpower divorced from Logic -- the mind of the idealist has a willpower of its own. The necessity of Logic. The laws of cause and effect that yield to nothing. Not because they’re agents of will that wields authority from the top down to crush opposition. That’s weakness. But because they’re agents of no force greater than themselves.

They are the law that’s above everything. And they’re there not to crush opposition from the top down but to make possible order and harmony from the bottom up. Through Logic, Love, and Peace rather than their opposites -- illogic, hatred, and conflict. They are the real power on the throne. A vision of authority that the animal brain of the realist has perverted into its mirror-image opposite.

The laws of cause and effect speak for Reality and Truth. And when confronted with foolishness that presumes to speak for anything else there is no give in them. The laws are what they are -- Necessity. Reality and Truth are what they are -- Logic and Love. Fantasies of the “triumph of the will” that presume to be above the law, in an alternate reality of opposites, are no match for it. 

We’re just getting started

The “realist” fancies himself a jack-booted commandant entitled to rule his domain without opposition. An unrealist in a shared world and a fool. OK then, the idealist has someone he’d like the realist to meet. The only character the military mind will listen to. The guy who seriously outranks him. Whose word is law. Who’s way better at not listening than he is, so he’ll show respect. A nice drill sergeant. With a lesson that, one way or another, our comic book action hero will learn. And until he does, he can just go on screwing up in boot camp, peeling potatoes and shoveling shit.

If blind unthinking will that seeks supremacy has a military bent, the mind of an idealist has an answer. A drill sergeant “explaining” to the usurper who would rule its domain unopposed the facts of life. You ain’t nuthin’ but a hound dog. You’re private first class nobody and welcome to Camp Swampy. We don’t “explain” stuff here so everyone can play pat-a-cake. We drill procedure -- the way it’s gotta be -- into everyone’s head so they get with the program.

There’s Logic to the way things are and you align yourself with it or you get your ass busted. You get stuck at the bottom of the pile and you stay there until you get the message. Anybody thinks he's master of the universe and doesn’t have to listen, doesn’t have to think, doesn’t have to communicate or relate, can do KP duty peeling potatoes. Anybody thinks he doesn’t have to answer to a higher power can do latrine duty shoveling shit until he’s learned his lesson.

Son, you didn’t wind up here so we can pamper your foolish ass with pleasantries. You’re here so you can get the facts of life drilled into your thick skull. By will that is will instead of a Marvel Comic joke, a magic act performed by a Joker hiding behind a mask. An act meant to trick gullible fools into imagining what’s not there instead of seeing what is there. Welcome to Necessity. Welcome to Reality. Welcome to boot camp where the real work begins. Where understanding begins.

We’re just getting started.

Published on Leave a comment on Origin and Meaning: The Logic of Everything

The first Implication of Logic

The original act that began the sequence of Logic that began everything was an Implication of Logic:
• from a condition of statelessness, the opposite of Creation -- worthlessness vs. Worth, pointlessness vs Purpose, meaninglessness vs Meaning, lifelessness vs Life, non-being vs Being:-- that state must Be and it must be the state of Creation.
• from statelessness, the opposite of Reality-Knowledge: that state must be Real and that it must be the state of Reality.
* from statelessness, the absence of everything: that state must be the presence of everything.

Statelessness – the absence of Everything -- prodded the sequence of Logic into motion with the Implication of Reality-Creation because “absence of Everything” implied “absence of Logic,” a Logical impossibility and therefore a condition of unreality. Logic’s response was an act of Necessity and self-assertion: the presence and inviolability of Logic.

The original act that began the sequence of Logic that began everything was thus an Implication of Logic from statelessness, the opposite of Reality-Creation, the opposite of Being-Life. The Implication contained DNA genetics with coded instructions for the design, development, and activation of the state of Reality-Creation, the state of Being-Life, attributes with the Force of Logic that holds all Implications and their Interconnections together.

The first Implication caused the first Interconnection in the sequence of Logic that required:
• Connection-match between before-after in the sequence to move it forward
• Reciprocity to complete the Connection and its effect.

Existentialism: Meaning that flows from the bottom up

Precedent was set with universal Implication for Meaning-Worth: that it always begins with Implications drawn from circumstances on the ground, from the situation in the Now involving whatever Selves and stakes-considerations, whatever Values-Worth compose the situation. This is what is meant by "Existentialism." The Logic of Meaning-Worth requires context for establishing Meaning, and context must be provided by circumstances at the current “before” point in the sequence of Logic.

The original activation by Energy, the Force of Logic

Energy is the electromagnetic Force that interconnects the Implications of Logic, the gravitational Force that holds the Interconnections of Logic together, and the nuclear Force that keeps opposites apart.

The original activation by the Force of Logic -- by Energy, -- that activated Reality-Creation, was its activation of the seed of Creation: Oneness that contained genetic code-instructions for everything at that point in the sequence of Logic in those circumstances. It did not contain everything that was to come because it had not happened yet. That is, it had not been recognized by Mind-Consciousness, validated by Love-Values, and authorized by Logic, so it belonged to the “after” part of the sequence of Logic and was yet to become Known. It was yet to be part of the exploration, the advance-extension into the unknown that is Creation.

The original activation of Energy, the Force of Logic, was caused by an Implication of Logic from statelessness. The sequence of Logic at the beginning thus began with an Implication of Logic that awakened Energy from a state of rest to engage with Creation and perform its first application: activating Logic’s seed of Creation, that is. activating its coded instructions for the design and development of Reality and the seeding of new Life that is Creation.

The first act by Oneness, the seed of Creation

The first act by Oneness-Innocence, the seed of Creation-Life, was an act of organic growth in alignment with Logic, that is, in the sequence of Logic deploying its Energy. The first act was organic evolution from Oneness into the marriage between two attributes of Logic: Mind-Masculinity Reason-Thought with Love-Femininity Value-Passion. It was an act of Reciprocity that holds all of Logic's Implications and their Interconnections together. It was in essence an affirmation of Worth, an act of Love which is an attribute of Logic.

The Implications and Reciprocity of Logic give Mind its ability to think and reason, to analyze and judge. The Force of Logic’s reciprocal Interconnections gives Mind its power to think and reason, to analyze and judge with consequences, i.e. to act, to decide, choose, and connect, to make Mind-Thoughts causes with effects. The Interconnections and Reciprocity of Logic give Love its ability to feel, to care and value. The Force of Logic’s reciprocal Interconnections gives Love its power to feel and care, to value and judge with consequences, i.e. to act, to share, affirm, evaluate, and connect, to make Love-Feelings causes with effects. It is the Implications and Interconnections of Logic that bind Mind and Love together into one Creative Force.

The first act of Oneness was thus to form the first intimate-loving Relationship capable of Parenting a Child, thereby capable of forming the first intimate family Relationship. The Couple was the first Parents of Creation-Life: Father-Mind and Mother-Love. The first act by Oneness, the seed of Creation-Life, was thus to form the first Relationship between Selves that are attributes of Logic which is the Source of Oneness, the Source of Reality-Creation which is everything that Is and everything that is to Be.

All steps in the sequence of Logic, then and Now, are part of a logically Interconnected succession of Implications.

The original engagement of Energy that led to the activation of Oneness was caused by an Implication from Reality-Creation, the opposite of statelessness. All causes in the Laws of cause and effect are Implications of Logic.

The Logical impossibility of separation

“Absence of Everything” and “presence of Everything” kept apart by Energy nuclear Force are still Interconnected / held together by Implications of Logic / Energy electromagnetic Force and by gravitational Force that Interconnects Logic / Everything. So long as opposites kept apart by Energy nuclear Force are still Interconnected by Implications of Logic and Energy electromagnetic Force, so long as the “separation” between Mind and no-mind is maintained both by the gravitational Force of Logic’s Interconnections and the nuclear Force of Logic’s opposites, it is in this sense that there can be no “real separation.”

Yet the Child’s experience with unconsciousness does establish that there is a sense in which separation is real: within the Child’s dream – our illusory material universe -- when it is “made real” and the possibility of no-mind / extinction, the original illogical and therefore unreal condition of statelessness, hangs over the illusion.

Reciprocity: the original Thought of Self-awareness

The original Thought of Self-awareness, of Consciousness, i.e. Mind that includes the capability of Choice, and the original Feeling of Value that includes the incentive, the Motivation, of Freedom i.e. Love, both core attributes of Logic, was Reciprocity. Giving and giving back that formed a Parental Relationship, a couple united as one, capable of producing a third Self, a Child. An extension of Mind and Love, a shared Self, to join with family in a second Relationship, Parents with Child. The Child with the Authority of Logic, empowered by Energy and enabled by Free Choice, was brought into Being to play an indispensable role in the central mission of Creation: the Creation of Worth. The opposite of statelessness. The opposite of worthlessness.

All of this is implied by the Necessity of Logic for activating Reality and Creation, Being and Life. For applying the laws of cause and effect. All implied by the Authority, the Force, and the Loving Kindness of Logic.

What, then, explains ethics and metaphysics? The alignment with Logic in the circumstances in which it finds itself. In its context, that gives everything that is and is to come its Meaning.
