Can Objective thinking save the world?
How does subjective thinking manifest itself?
1. Believing things are true only to the extent that our self-image is upheld, rejecting anything else that would threaten our self-image. This works both at the personal and the collective levels.
2. The old fascist saying: “I love my brother more than my cousin, my cousin more than my neighbor, my neighbor more than my countrymen, my countrymen more than foreigners, my ‘race’ more than other ‘races’, etc.”
3. Thinking that the deaths of people of one’s own nation are more important than the deaths of those in other nations.
Of all these, number 1 is by far the most important. Many bad things follow from it. If, on the other hand, you dedicate yourself to the truth, no matter where it takes you, you may find yourself a heretic with fewer friends.
What are some of the heresies?
1. We are living in a fascist dictatorship.
2. 911 was an inside job, a “false flag” operation resulting in a coup d’etat.
3. The god of the Old Testament shared by Muslims, Jews and Christians is not the creator of the cosmos, is not the sole, omnipotent god, and does not have our best interests at heart. See, for example, the the Nag Hammadi Library, or Jehovah Unmasked, or Marcion
4. Pursuing our selfish interest doesn’t lead to the good of the whole.
Can objective thinking “save the world?”
Here’s an idea. What if EEQT or Event-Enhanced Quantum Theory is true? Under this theory the observer “crystalizes” or, more accurately collapses various alternate, potential realites as in standard quantum theory. In EEQT incorporates chaos and non-linear dynamics by proposing that the more accurate the observer’s view of the situation, the higher level of order the resulting collapsing. Conversely, the less accurate the observer’s view is the more disorder in the resulting reality. That is why facing the truth about our own reality may be more important than we realize. See Laura Knight-Jadczyk for a good essay on how this works.
