Theme: Truth

Jan 5, 2020, 7:31 PM Existence refers to persistence. The universe exists, and the matter in it exists, because it persists – we can identify that it exists because we posses memory. We can identify patterns of constant relations in that persist in that universe – that universe is deterministic at any scale at which we can identify patterns of constant relations. We can generalize those patterns of constant relations. We can identify unique instances of those patterns of constant relations. We can name them. We name states(nouns), substitutes for states (pronouns), and properties of states (adjectives), operations (verbs), and properties of operations (adverbs) and we can agree or disagree (yes/no, agree disagree, approve reject) We can form and speak(display word and deed) transactions(phrases) and transaction sets (sentences), and sets of transaction sets (stories) We can agree with those transactions, transaction sets, and sets of transaction sets (true/false) We can speak in promise, suggestion, question, agreement, opposition, or silence. When we claim we speak truthfully we speak promissorily. One can speak truthfully or untruthfully. When we speak truthfully we speak coherently with categorically, internally (logically), externally (empirically), operationally(sequence of actions) consistency, and use due diligence to disambiguate any possibility of misinterpretation. We can speak untruthfully because of ignorance, error, bias, wishful thinking, suggestion, obscurantism, fictionalism, deceit, and denial. We are forever ignorant so while we have discovered how to gradually iterate to the most parsimonious hierarchy of consistent and commensurable paradigms (networks of continuous relations at given scales, and in given contexts), in that set of Grammars we call “science”. Truth can and only can consist of language in some grammar or other, reducible to analogy to experience, testable by human logical facility. So while patterns of constant relations exist in the universe, and we can name those patterns, that thing we call truth consists of language humans discover, organize and iteratively refine through a process of continuous recursive disambiguation as information increases. The human mind works by using sequences of stimuli (patterns) to produce predictions of fragments, object, models, spaces(places), borders, locations, and episodes. The mind then recursively predicts possibilities from those predictions using auto association. We then use attention to choose which auto associations to permute upon. This is how we imagine, and control what we imagine. Because we can imagine, we imagine that truth exists, when only phenomenon exists ,and truth consists of the formula by which we describe it. Man discovers constant relations and creates truthful descriptions of those constant relations. Truthful statements are made by man because only man (so far) speaks. When we say honest we say the speaker promises his words are free of suggestion, obscurantism, fictionalism, deceit and denial. When we say truthful, we mean, that operational name (description) which is not false, and satisfies market demand for decidability in the given context, given the present knowledge, and free of bias, wishful thinking, suggestion, obscurantism, fictionalism, and deceit, where the individual uttering it has performed due diligence against ignorance and error. When we claim a statement is true we promise that it satisfies market demand for decidability given the context. When we agree that a statement ‘is true’ that means that we AGREE that it satisfies market demand for decidability given the context. When we say ‘the truth’ we mean either a parsimonious operational name for the constant relations we refer to, or the MOST parsimonious name for the constant relations we refer to. Of the various civilizations which has produced the only method of due diligence with which to speak the most parsimonious categorically consistent, internally consistent, externally correspondent, operational, complete, and fully accounted operational names? Of the various civilizations which has paid the high cost of normalizing truth before face regardless of cost to self, competence, dominance hierarchy? Only man speaks, only man describes, only man describes in operational names, only operational names are complete and commensurable, only complete and commensurable operational names are parsimonious, only parsimony provides minimum difference between the most parsimonious possible and the current state of knowledge. I could work on this further but you get the point. That truth must be discovered, named, and uttered (in some form). Truth is made. Truth is uttered, Truth is promised, Truth satisfies the market demand for decidability. We consent to that decidability by equal means -or we do not. The universe merely exists.
