    I agree with the General Order through Development. The key word to everything is Order. Everything is in a state of Order or we wouldn't even be able to intelligently discuss anything. Chaos is not the way of the world, there is too much evidence to the contrary.

    I like the idea of the ocean, and time could flow in like the tide everyday and go out like the tide everyday.

    Geometer

    It is time for the philosphers to put the philosphy into cosmic reality. We must assume the responsibility of our vision and quest. A circle is but a slice of the sphere; moving in only two dimensions. This is the reality we are born to. The world from which we came and will return; is the twelve dimensional multi-sphere of cosmic reality.

    Michael,
    You are given your lifetime, however short or long, to do God's will. His will is for you personally to give up selfishness and become selfless. The rest are just details. It is your personal quest, by the grace of God, to complete your spiritual exodus to Heaven by helping fellow human beings. This is God's will for you and all of us.
    -C. michael Turner
    p.s.- When you fall off track, get up, apologize to God, and get back on track, let God worry about the rest.

    Hi

    I believe "Chaos" is the way of the infinite, "Order" the way all...have tried to and all try to.... "will" it..."shape" it, to "take pleasure from it...." make it pleasanter, more orderly to exist...for example?

    Re: Loooking for philosophers

    "What if life has no meaning?"

    I think that looking for a "meaning" for life is roughly equivalent to treating it as a language - and that's fine. Then there is grammar (supposedly the laws) and the syntax (presumably memory or history) and last but not least the motor the whole thing is hanging on: Time!

    All this seems to constantly generate some kind of meaning. This is probably tied up with a fundamental form of intelligence: the emotional intelligence.
    This may be the prism through which we experience the ongoing "meaning" of this language complex.
