Human Being Theory. For Dummies. Jacob Feldman

      Only complete disaster could clean our head from broken ore obsolete values. Why it is so? Because when we lose after swamp journey, no specific value is responsible for the failure. One points toward another and everyone whispers «that’s him, not me». So nobody is guilty. And we keep them all.

      Culture, brains and more

      «I know what you’re thinking about.» said Tweedledum; «but it isn’t so, nohow»

      Symbolic reality is not of human beings only. Animals, insects etc. use different kinds of symbols. But for now I will ignore any non-human life.

      According the definition, neurons of our brains are symbolic objects too. So first part of symbolic reality is of brains.

      Things out of our brains are human-made. If one person made the symbol and other person can read the symbol, it is culture.

      And some symbols are made by person but no other person can read it. No name for this part.

      Pay attention, that mathematical and virtual reality together form ideal reality. Now we have ontology done.

      Four kinds of pointers

      Tweedledum and Tweedledee

      Agreed to have a battle;

      For Tweedledum said Tweedledee

      Had spoiled his nice new rattle

Through the Looking Glassby Lewis Carroll

      There are four kinds of pointers in the symbolic reality. I place them into culture but they exist in «brains» and «no name area» too.

      First kind of symbols point to the one specific event in physical reality. I call it fact.

      Second kind of symbols points to the class of similar events. I call it generalization.

      Third kind of symbols point to the mathematical world, to one specific element of specific model. I call it concept.

      Fourth kind of symbols point to the virtual world. I call it idea. Idea in turn can point to everything including facts, generalizations, concepts, idea and other symbol.

      This is our understanding of

      epistemology,

      ontology,

      axiology.

      Myth, Religion, Science

      Just then flew down a monstrous crow,

      As black as a tar-barrel

      Which frightened both the heroes so,

      They quite forgot their quarrel.

Through the Looking Glassby Lewis Carroll

      What is the difference between myth, religion and science? To answer this question I collected evidences.

      1) Is there canonical texts?

      2) Are there professionals?

      3) What about authorship?

      See answers in the table.

      Fig.24. Canon, professionals, authorship

      I suppose that these different features are outer manifestation of specific inner activity.

      I suppose that the most valuable information in society circulates inside special hierarchies. There are three kinds of positions in such hierarchies: authors, translators, and consumers.

      Fig.25. Authors, translators, and consumers

      There are no professionals in the myth circulating.

      There are no authors in religion (that’s why they need God as a Creator),

      but there are authors in science.

      It means that myth and religion (for some reason) do not use some parts of the hierarchy.

      Fig.26. Myth, religion, science

      Disclaimer. Pair «knowledge vs. faith» makes us to distinguish between consumers of science and consumers of religion. And this is bad idea.

      Do not compare consumers of different kinds. They are very similar. Compare science, religion and myth as a systems.

      3.Main model: levels of mind

      Every model is a Heaven’s gift

      «If it moves, salute it.

      If it doesn’t move, pick it up.

      If you can’t pick it up, paint it.»

      Fig.28. Authors, translators, and consumers

      Look at the picture and believe what I’m saying. There is one translator per one hundred consumers. There is one author per one hundred translators. There is one great idea per one hundred authors per generation. There is one author-made solid model per one hundred author-made great ideas. There are almost 10 000 000 000 human beings at the planet now. So we could expect 10 solid models being СКАЧАТЬ
