THE SYNTHESIS

I am not going to finish this today but I want to get it out for the wow factor in case I get hit by a bus or something.

IN ORDER TO ACT IN REALITY WE MUST WARRANTY OUR JUDGEMENTS

***I warranty to myself and to others that I performed due diligence prior to my actions – including speech – such that my actions imposed no net cost upon myself, or upon others, and by doing so, harmed both my survivability and the incentive to voluntarily cooperate while being free of the imposition of cost by others.***

THEREFORE

***as the complexity of CONSEQUENCES of ERROR increase, the degree of due diligence I must perform in order to provide myself and others a warranty that my reasoning and actions perform no harm to myself or others***

THE POWER OF THE HUMAN MIND IS ITS SEARCH ENGINE (INTUITION) NOT NECESSARILY ITS REASON.

***Our reason provides us both with search improvement and warranty***
