Newton wrote that the Universe is God's sensorium. We now give greater precision and meaning to this statement and expand our vision of divinity in the proportion in which Newton and Einstein expanded our
[page 71]
vision of the physical world.
The word of god is a function (or mapping) from the transfinite to the countable domain.
We gain the spirit by hearing the world of the lord.

How do we connect the Newtonian principle of superposition (3rd law) and the quantum approach? Through the notion of angle. Angle (phase) is a measure of consistency. The resultant of two forces is calculated using the parallelogram of forces which Poisson (Moulton 6) replaced by the axiom that the resultant of two equal forces is in the line of the bisector of the angle between them (Hilbert, Geometry is coming) Hilbert
Dynamics must be reduced to statics for communication and codeability (underlying all code is an invariant text) [the code is the environment of the text and vice versa]

Different levels of engine room in the Universe, each more intense than the last as we decompose any item.
Composition and decomposition. The compositor of the Universe.

Every action = {action}, except those that are measured by h bar, which map onto the natural numbers as a set ordered in spacetime by gravitation (geometrodynamics)
Christianity is very well packaged.
[page 73]
Does LUST precede or follow LOVE? Is this a question for special relativity? How do we map from gravitation to the potential space of human action.
TOLERANCE
We have to remove the historical hatred while acknowledging that it did and does exist and acts as an nth order perturbation on the ideal system.
-> IDEAL = -> SMALLER COUPLING CONSTANT
eg GRAVITY good to Plank length.
John Maynard KEYNES, R F Harrod Harrod
93 "We were among the last of the Utopians or meliorists as they are sometimes called, who believed in continuing moral progress by virtue of which the human race already consists of reliable rational decent people, influenced by truth and objective standards
[page 74]
who can be safely released from the outward constraints of convention and traditional standards and inflexible rules of conduct, and left, from now onwards, to their own sensible devices, pure motives and reliable intuitions of the good."
What I wish to do is cast Lonergan's doctrine of empirical residue in mathematical form and see how it holds up.
We are looking for a scale invariant way of computing the Lagrangian of any act so that we can apply de Maupertuis' idea of 'nil frustra', the optimization of action by externalization. Since action is a scalar, its extremes are maximum and minimum.
LOGICAL CONFINEMENT = CARDINAL CONFINEMENT
The elements we have to construct h are the cardinal and ordinal numbers of the states involved. So to physics.

In the Newtonian economy there is instant payment of debt and credit as it is incurred by buying or selling. In a real economy there are various degrees of delay in settlement.

Constructing humanity: religion.

How do we construct a Lagrangian out of ℵ0 and ℵ1? What is the optimum relationship between part and whole? Part does nothing for itself that the whole can do for it. Whole does nothing for the part which does not benefit the whole, and the part insofar as the part depends upon it. Oh to be a genius, instead of plodding in circles. A part seeking a new whole, ie a centre of condensation.
Particle and Potential = space (geometrodynamics)
[page 76]
The space and the particle between them decide the trajectory by communicating between them.
The elements of a set communicate through a set transfinite to them, that is the set of all mappings.
NEW: the model
Liberal: something must be done
Conservative: tough
Maynard individualism vs planning, Harrod 226 sqq
The communication between particle and space is in the nature of an error signal, that is a signal of inconsistency either in the particle or the space. I'm hungry; we have no food; etc etc. So what is extremal Lagrangian? Efficient (responsive communication based on negotiated expectations)
[page 77]
'economists who are the trustees not of civilization but of the possibility of civilization' Maynard, Harrod 227.
The principal religious question is self government. God is merely a fictional collective image of self designed to form an agreed basis for control.
Harrod 252: Keynes "We are in it now": we are led to carnage by defective corporate structures.
