Unless we recognize them as part of our biological being, they have no valence. </span><br /><span style="font-size:78%;"> All of our thought is adaptive. We are sensors and responders. We cannot evolve systems which do not depend on our own genetic instructions, brains and central nervous sustems. We are perhaps, Energy's reader. But the moment we have sensed something, thought about it, ;iit has become part of our biological system, no longer mysterious. We have absorbed the information or insight as a survival strategy. It is our biology which does the sensing, responding and selecting. </span><br /><span style="font-size:78%;"> This in no way limits us. Our system is an open system, capable of change at both fundamental amd peripheral points. We cannot get outside our own brains. Downloading brains, uploading brains will simply be more of the same. We cannot imagine what we cannot imagine without a genetic change of exponential proportions. We may see more and more truly what our environment consists of, but only to help us adapt to it, overpower it, consume it. There is no mental or spiritual capacity that can operate without the operator. Even the paranormal or parapsychologic experience requires a sentient human being to register it. </span><br /><span style="font-size:78%;"> The power of an idea is equal to the number of other human beings who sense an adaptive value in it or in its possible mutations, no more, no less. </span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27554347-114973248917568318?l=pegandpat.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Pat Regdonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11193649205268318878noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27554347.post-1146782067511184812006-05-04T15:30:00.000-07:002006-05-05T11:09:32.683-07:00Please see <a href="http://www.pegandpat.com">www.pegandpat.com</a> for the complete rendition of "Child of the Continuum." I've started this blog to enable anyone to pose questions or make comments on my ideas.<br /><br />"Child of the Continuum" is a theory which identifies human thought and behavior patterns, including morals and ethics, as adaptations which continue evolution through variation, competition and selection of various patterns of thought and behavior where new idea or way of doing things = mutation; human idividual's adaptive choices of such ideas or ways of doing things = selection.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27554347-114678206751118481?l=pegandpat.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Pat Regdonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11193649205268318878noreply@blogger.com2
