Since the beginning of time free thinking can be define as anyone who did not conform to status qua-wherever was social, political or any kind though outside, like Jews refusing to accept Christianity or Islam prescription of the Messiah or political moments from the right or left in19 century. The Blog follows the spirit of Spinoza which challenge not only his own Hebrew roots, but also Christianity with the tolerance of Montaigne. We dedicate this blog to all them were burn for dare to ask.

A question of Science
Science is a
complicated process of understanding in some many levels—they are two basic
questions needs to be answer. The first is a control and second can the
prediction can be replicated. There is a misunderstanding—a mythology, the idea
between hard science and soft science, where each disciplined required
different levels of understanding and required different set of skills.
While, a model—predictions
need to consider only what replications say, will be very disingenuous to force
a replication, to fit a model, and the skills—understanding are different. There
is no such thing one body of knowledge is better than other, each level of understanding
given a better perception of our surrounding.
Mathematics
dependent on the logic able to maintain an internal consistence—if not a misunderstanding,
on the other hand, other understanding—epistemology dependents ideal of a
simplicity or universal understanding others really dependents, because the
complexity where the question, then complex understanding required.
How a body of knowledge
is created, how the knowledge become its own identity. Many factors, one when a
questions needs to be dedicated their own set of understanding, when the
question born from other analysis, cannot be answer by previous knowledge, and
required a dedicated own knowledge, a new body of knowledge is born.
While we used
mathematics, not be consider just a tool, where mathematics has to answer their
own questions independent how is being used, the user of the tool need consider
just a tool for his own purposed. Each epistemology comes from his own set of
question and answering their own, while maybe be related to others, there is complexity,
maybe lost when a single view is being consider.
Many will
consider there one body of knowledge is better than others, which miss the
point, when we consider a body of knowledge, cannot be compare, because the
question is different, so the issue every body of knowledge become their
complexity. One example shows this complexity our evolution of our brains, which
dependent in a localized plasticity.
The plasticity
dependent on actual physical limitation, but to overcome the space a solution,
a hardware solution, evolution, the synapses 3 trillion of them changes, while
the keep a reference point—memory, smell, vision cue or other technique, the
plasticity able to connected to correlated new patterns, what we are, our
strength and our weakness, evolution give such elegant solution, simple and
complex, making an amazing, how life with his own limitation—created a
solution, dependent on the context of
the process where the question is born and encounter.
There is no such
thing one is better than other, all dependent what is the question—understanding,
not to say there is no such thing right or wrong, not unique to any group or
believer group, never do to others, what do not want to you, the question of fairness,
power—how someone defined ownership, who owns the law, how the law set to favor
one group towards others. How property is defined, who benefit, what is individual
committeemen towards the collective—what the collective committeemen to the
individual, what are the relationship.
Science is not a
detached endeavor, is part of collective experience, we can share, dream and
make live better for all of us, no man is Island, we all shared a common experience,
not just our specie, but we trivet in
this evolution, because evolution, the environment was conducive for us to
trivet, we have an obligation to all of us—ourselves to environment who made
life for us possible a better placed, this experienced what make us human
experience, growth all of us, an injury to one, as injury to all of us, we do
not won this world, whether we exist or not the world—with his evolution will
continue, what we are what we make for everyone, and our environment.
We are in cross
roads, the drought in Syria force population to move, forcing a social moment,
but because US involvement in Iraq, the conflict spilled in Syria, and this
forced an emigration which was taken place from Africa, because the corruption,
inequality in Africa move to Europe for a better life, bringing their
individual problems, and with crises in Syria,
the xenophobic groups, encourage and supported by Russia, applying 19
century Russian Imperialism of Russification, now we are ended 2017 with a
delusion this problems will resolved, in case Syria and Iraq carved minorities living side by side, having
different believes, language, traditions and historical grievances are not
going away nothing have change, the long this grievances—differences are
confront and resolved.
The should be an
independent Kurdish state independent what Turkey say—Russia or other nations, sometimes
individuals need to be separated to find their identity and able to deal with
the world around, not as nationalism, but recognition of individual, while
nationalism is based on some historical, ethnic, cultural—believe, individual
recognized in the human-experience.
