Slapstick
Slapstick is based on the misdirection of another person’s expectations. Slapstick is the difference between what the victim clearly intends to do and what he actually does do (slips on the banana skin).
A Magic Illusion
A magic illusion relies on the ambiguity of our perception; our inability to pay attention to two different things at once. A magic illusion is the difference between what the comic has led us to believe he is about to show us and what he then does show us (the prestige, the trick).
The Freedom of Free Will?
Free will is never free in any absolute sense. It’s not free to be random, to be purposeless, to pursue no aims, to be unconcerned with the pursuit of the increase of power, to be devoid of reasons for action, to be empty of meaning, to be indeterministic, to be outside ontological mathematics. The notion of untrammelled, unconstrained freedom to which libertarians subscribe is incoherent and impossible to define. Even random events actually presuppose some order of existence that permits random events to take place!
Intolerance
“Don’t impose your politically correct intolerance on us.” – the religious
“Don’t impose your religious intolerance on us.” – the politically correct
Cause and Effect as a Continuum; The Flux of Events
“We have discovered a manifold succession where the naive man and investigator of older cultures saw only two things ‘cause’ and ‘effect’ ... We operate only with things which do not exist, with lines, surfaces, bodies, atoms, divisible times, divisible spaces – how can explanation ever be possible when we first make everything a conception, our conception! It is sufficient to regard science as the exactest humanising of things that is possible; we always learn to describe ourselves more accurately by describing things and their successions. Cause and effect: there is probably never any such duality; in fact there is a continuum before us, from which we isolate a few portions; just as we always observe a motion as isolated points, and therefore do not properly see it, but infer it. The abruptness with which many effects take place leads us into error; it is however only an abruptness for us. There is an infinite multitude of processes in that abrupt moment which escape us. An intellect which could see cause and effect as a continuum, which could see the flux of events not according to our mode of perception, as things arbitrarily separated and broken, would throw aside the conception of cause and effect, and would deny all conditionality.” – Nietzsche
Nietzsche never grasped the true nature of mathematics. He’s certainly right that there are countless processes going on at any one time, but wrong that these cannot all ultimately be reduced to cause and effect, albeit in a staggeringly complex, interactive, interconnected way. The whole of reality is about the unfolding of the God Equation through countless interacting monads, each defined by the God Equation. There’s nothing else going on.
The ocean is full of countless water molecules, all interacting. That interaction is immensely complex but there’s
