I like your deep thought process but many a time you loose me in what you're conveying. Keep it simple for some of us...

@Kratos, thank you for your response. To understand the ant you must focus on the colony. That is, for us to understand an individual's content or action, we must understand the overall objective, relative position and role.

Humanity is organized in superorganisms called societies, and these superorganisms, like colonies, experience changes from both within and without and every once in a while changes in structure and behavior are necessary if the species is to survive.

Now is such a time when everything has to be reconsidered.

I am trying to play the role of setting the ideological and philosophical grounds of a new colony.

Everything is coming fast and furious and a post is a snapshot of a stimulus and a response at the same time.

So 3 posts are six variables to be processed. Understanding doesn't come easy. I hope you get my drift.

@Simon, fanatics and non fanatics have some work to do, and I am handling my tasks in comfortable stride. I am actually enjoying.

Well! some lesson in the greek language is not bad once in awhile.

Einstein: Make things as simple as possible but not simpler.Let me explain for tycho and probably myself starting with @kratos definition of communication. Communication also needs the involved parties to share a common point of reference otherwise it becomes impossible.For example,explaining what a web page is to a person with no concept of a computer,the internet or electricity is almost futile.

But then again those few lines are the filtered results of hours of deep thought so it might not be only an issue with perspective or reference.

@quicksand - This one I have to disagree.There is nothing as important in this world as knowledge and wisdom.It governs EVERYTHING you do and your speech and actions,as tycho correctly put it,are direct result of the faith you have in that knowledge/wisdom.Let me give a direct wazuan example.Every investment we discuss and pursue is a direct reaction to the knowledge and information we hold.So if your knowledge is inaccurate,incomplete or flawed so follows your investments. The question thus remains,how do you protect yourself from that if you don't seek deeper meaning and understanding on knowledge and wisdom.

I was talking about the study of knowledge or understanding of the nature of knowledge.It might sound like a trivial issue but I don't think it is. I now understand the point you are trying to put across.We should keep things simple.Let me use your Sheldon example. In one context its sufficient to just call it mud but in another context "Particulate soil in colloidal suspension".I think its the latter in this case because I see the sense and depth of tycho's words on a physical and spiritual level.

@ChessMaster, 'There's nothing to fear but fear itself'.

'Fear itself' is the essence of being. It is the bedrock, the prime mover unmoved. It is always there whenever we try to be. It is the source of all being.

We cannot be indifferent to it. Therefore we must name it. Yet we cannot really name it. 'The Tao that can be named is not the Tao'.

In what way does a boson exist? We can only make 'eight sigma' allusion, and we need special apparatus to show this allusion. Yet we name it. We can't escape the responsibility to name.

The essence of being is in the text; yet he/she is beyond. She cannot be judged.

But he always judges. Faith comes before action. Therefore judging faith is the preponderant issue.

It's interesting to see the Church fathers ending up in Heisenberg, and now Heisenberg is becoming a priest.

It is poetry. Hmmmm. That important frame of reference was missing. I am very empirical by nature, long background in technical and engineering training. I think I begin to understand now ..However, I am too drunk to provide a comprehensive answer now ...

I think you are aiming for flair, which is noble, but you are short on clarity, which is regrettable. Usually where you find clarity, simplicity isn't very far off. These are two usually intertwined concepts but they are not mutually exclusive.
You go wrong here by claiming we all universally seek simplicity; You don't see the causality of simplicity and clarity. You can project a complex yet clear idea. You drop lines, which are cryptic, then many times you stop short and don't explain them.
You mention science. Ever seen how a mathematical proof is written? It starts with predicates and then operations are done on them, values moving left and right until the final elegant proof is revealed. You provide the 'final proof' and nary how it got there. Without supporting statements, a new proof doesn't amount to much and could be an assortment of random characters anyway.
More on science; Scientific laws are averages? Where did you get that idea? In fact, a lot of scientific laws are very precise. The ratio of Pi is a very specific number for instance, so is the gravitational constant, there are very many examples ...leave science out, it is taking wind out of your sails.
Take this premise ..

While I can't argue that a word is a symbol, it can't mean something to everyone. We encounter symbols everyday and many are meaningless, redundant or useless to our existence.
If I picked a random mandarin word and pasted it here what would that mean to you? A word on its own cannot be a spell, especially just any random word. It has to exist within coherent text explaining an understandable idea; Then you can call the sentence, verse, paragraph or book a spell. And even calling it a spell is probably not the best to convey what they are, you are dabbling in mysticism here.
Things that don't involve high order brain functions like reasoning, emotion, scheming don't deserve the high pedestal you have put them; They are units, components, cogs in a wheel,...which then makes the whole. If we did this, we'll start regarding bacteria and viruses in a new introspective light (they have form and matter don't they?) ...in the end, we'd drown in drivel.
Lastly, you have blasted the criticism. That is ironic. In my opinion your posts smack of elitism, like you want to prove your thoughts are of a higher order than a common man's, or actually mine for that matter, that is why you say they are ,..all the things you are not, naturally.
You invoke poetry, stating that is what you intended. You didn't structure the post by conventional poetic forms; and while I don't dictate the rules, I find they help lessen the confusion.
A poem by definition

Poetic

Anyhow, who says you have to follow rules? That would be a restriction on expression. However, you have excused yourself from the burden of explaining your writing cause poetry leaves writings to multiple explanations. That is indeed a masterstroke. I doff the hat.
I haven't read of any poet brought to task over their writing, as opposed to writers of plain prose. How can you hold to standard something that can be interpreted in many different ways? You want us to appreciate your thoughts, derive something useful from them, well,....It is like trying to pin down smoke. I am skeptical about things not in the plain, how can you be sure the originator is not mucking with your head for his/her own amusement?
For instance, historians and buffs have been debating this painting for 500 years, I think Hans Holbein was having a laugh. Many times I think you are doing the same thing @tycho.


Have a happy new year.

lol!

what your looking for is EQ...which is more important than IQ.

The essence of being is action under uncertainty, and action means force.

That is, being is brought forth by the force of uncertainty.

Fear, is the force of uncertainty; and uncertainty can never be done away with, therefore fear cannot be moved.

Therefore fear is the prime mover unmoved.
