My day is bound by a series of tasks all of which are linked to my continued healthy existence, food shopping, car registration, dentist, purchase of building materials

and so on. All this will take about six hours. The rest of the day I am free to do what i want. After family actions comers continued work on a new theology. I can see now that I have to perfect this before releasing it, following the perfectionist and detailed approach to product development that has become best practice in manufacturing industry and industry in general. This is a lot of work but it becomes easier as its value emerges. I see myself as a private PhD student striving to produce the result that would gain me the title doctor if it had been done under official auspices. As this does not seem, possible given the current state of academic theology, it seems worth going it alone. The possibility of good success has a lot to do with Wikipedia providing me with the alphabet of concepts which I initially set out to document myself in a glossary. The ultimate theological product which synthesizes all the concepts described in Wikipedia into one coherent whole.

One must believe in unconscious processing because the processing power of the brain is so great and diversified that only an infinitesimal can enter consciousness, that fraction of the unconscious processing hat this process itself decides that it must be brought to the attention of the user. The closer an issue is perceived by the unconscious process to be a matter of life and death, the ore urgently it is forwarded to consciousness.

Catholicism is a conspiracy theory. The conspirators are the three persons of the Trinity.

Do we all think our enemies are irrational?

[page 118]

No-one can deny that the Churches often act to help those in poverty, sickness or pain, they act as social error correcting system. But what if they are based on a deeper error: be nice to people, not in their own right, but as a means to earning a better reward in heaven for oneself. And, given the dark side of religion, you can kill them for the same reason because they are infidels and the only good infidel is a dead infidel.

The basic religious disease is unfounded overconfidence in some actions (like praying) an underconfidence in others, like cooperation.

Always stretching my neck out but never getting past the post! Beginning the physics chapter of development with an attempt to unify general relativity and quantum mechanics with the network theory. A big promise, but rather difficult to achieve,. The fundamental idea is to see the atlas of the universal differentiable manifold and the Hilbert space of Quantum mechanics as two incarnations of the same network structure. We must begin with the matheamtical connection. Both Hilbert spaces and differential manifolds are constructed from Euclidean spaces, ie they are in some sense 'locally Euclidean'.

As I penetrate more deeply into these problems my life seems more precious to me and I go to greater lengths to avoid

a fatal industrial accident.

All praise to Wikipedia. Now I can write sparse sketches and flesh them out with references to the encyclopedia.

We learn about unknown systems from their failure modes because they are invisible and transparent when they are working correctly.

Let love decide.

Maybe all this natural religion is a\con job like the Roman Catholic Church.
