Mukherjee page 177: 'Religious movements and cults arte often founded on a tetrad of element: a prophet, a prophecy, a book and a revelation.' Mukherjee
[page 100]
A state becomes a real message when it gets some energy rather as a kinase phosphorylates a protein. Mukherjee page 358 Kinase - Wikipedia

Another funeral. Another minister talking crap. Listen to Vaclav Havel (SMH Timelines 20/12 page 16) 'At the root of his protest has been a visceral loathing of what communism has come to Czechoslovakia. In 1990, in one of his early addresses as president . . . [he said] "we have become morally ill because we are used to saying one thing and thinking another," as we are required to do by the factual errors of Christianity which nevertheless remains our common religion.

Krushchev Remembers page 471: 'A personality cult is a little like a religions, For centuries people have been saying "Lord, have mercy on us; Lord help and protect us." and have all the prayers helped? Of course not. But people are set in their ways and continue to believe in God despite all the evidence to the contrary.'
Presumably this cult is bases on the one experience that a certain amount of flattery and entreaty does sometimes soften the hearts of autocrats, like the recently deceased 'Dear leader'

To me the recognition that the Universe is divine seems to be a monumental step forward, but since I seem to spend most of my time worrying about details I miss the big picture. From the marketing point of view, the big picture is what counts. We are infinitely susceptible to dreams and buy the car or the cigarette because the advertisers have managed to cast such a spell over an item that it becomes for a profitable number of people a must have. I want to make natural religion a must have for everyone on the planet. This means that its formal cotent must be not only accessible but also desirable to everyone on the planet, in other words it has to address our human symmetry.
LAYER = SYMMETRY (continuous (conservative) group).
CONTINUITY = ADDITIVE MEASURE [LOGICAL CONTINUITY = FORMAL MEASURE]
naturaltheology - personal
physical theology - abstract, in the external (message) forum.
We bring things alive by adding energy to a form, turning it on. This is the quantum mehanical view: a state becomes observable when it is motivated by energy, ie becomes an active process, like me living. The plan is to bring natural religion alive. The consceptual basis of natural religion is natural theology.
Symmetry: the Universe is founded on (made out of) nothing, Definition comes not from chaos but identity.
