. . . Steering the ship of state. CYBERNETICS. Sum up the steering of a ship a la NORBERT. Wiener
POLYTHEISM -> MONOTHEISM (Pope, Jesus, God, Spirit) -> POLYTHEISM (we are all gods with all these powers)
The MOMENTUM OF THE SHIP OF STATE is a product (function) of its multiplicity.
Once again I have to assume that you have a parent / child / boyfriend / girlfriend/ friend/ somebody who has done enough cybernetics to decode / expand this outrageously precise representation of something deep in modern technology to you with all the passion, excitement and intelligence that it deserves. I take it that this sort of stuff is bread and butter to all the mathematically cultured intelligentsia that purports to advise my governments, so I am allowed to speak in code for sheer want of space.
I notice that our little rat faced PM wants to put God (big G) in the preamble of our constitution and play down the Aboriginal.
The reason, moderation and learning of the English Church was beautifully done but poorly founded. Darwin, as the fathers of the Church knew, totally cut the ground out from under them, but like all those bomb factories shut down

by the end of the cold war, they continue to go through the motions more than a century later because they know nothing else.
The ship of state navigates through a state space which is immensely complex.
This complex state space is the environment of the state and includes the natural world, including all those highly evolved animals called citizens, and also includes all the other states (eg SA, Australia, the US, the UN, etc etc etc)
Our minds (here by mind I mean all internal information processing) are formed by our environment.
Junkies: take the drug for what it is, a painkiller for personalities rather too sensitive for the environment in which they find themselves.

An entity can be represented as a transformation (computation / process). My passage through life is manifested by a track of transformation in my environment, like grub tracks radiating

from oviposition under bark.
Looking for a line through space - back to the generalized geodesic. We seek the line of extremal action, the path through heaven. But how do we know how we are eon the right tack? Seek some model to justify the course taken.
We seek the path we want our children to follow - the path of maximum entropy ? complexity / life.
Force: increasing entropy - CANTOR - decreasing entropy E-THEOREM Cantor, Khinchin
KILL = Decrease entropy? Life is a maximum entropy state (if we count our entropy right?)
Maximise entropy for given dynamic realization of the system. Still cannot see it, but it is there. A few hundred more IQ points would surely help. Has to be some measure theoretical link between transfinite numbers.

Just talking ad lib here, on the monkey principle that if we try every possible sentence, we will find the right one (through variation and selection).

The moving equilibrium - moving target requires feed forward (prediction) to maintain stability. Simple reaction leads to hunting, overshooting etc.
Cybernetic symmetries in the transfinite network.
Physics is an account of the symmetries in the transfinite network.
Speed up theorems (Goedel) and Cantor's principle of finitism (Skolem Lowenheim theorem?)
Structures: Planetary disc
Newton's law founds cellular automata called gravitating systems.

Rename FORMALISM --> LANGUAGE
Static ACTUS PURUS is a CONTRADICTION. GOD MUST GROW if GOD IS ALIVE. Theology models god; here we have a new growing model of go, TNN (transfinite neural network)
The entry of a luscious woman into my life <++> the entry of my life into a luscious woman.
Particle moves in space. Space moves in particle. She enters my environment (me) I enter her environment (her)
A sequence or motif in DNA specifies an action to be performed by the resulting protein, ie it specifies a tool and the proteins of a cell are a set of tools spanning life.
TECHNOLOGY: A spanning set of tools a) tools for life b) tools for culture or civilization.
Release of tools in to the environment causes execution of the tooled activity whenever substrate(s) are present in the warm (random) environment
[page 164]
of the tool.
TOOL = ENZYME
So the release of lego into the environment of children causes the evolution of lego structures, as car factories cause cars. But car factories do not make roads.
An implemented (realized) equation is a CONSTRAINT on the Universe.
CONSTRAINT = EQUATION
Technology = TOOL
Economics = MARKET

The trouble with Xian god is male, simple and univocal. So now we introduce quantum mechanics, superposition, complexity,
[page 165]
femininity. Newton's linear superposition - the parallelogram of forces.
Central question: Neural network, humanity and superposition.
Theology: private /public experience. Drug is public externally applied chemical that changes private experience.
Addiction is disordered desire, outside the control of the whole system. One should not cancel a desire because some might become addicted to it.
A living god must grow. God became congealed in the notion that actus purus means realization of all possibility.
Possibility is as real as action. Possibility and action are PEERS, not an ORDERED ST. POTENCY IS CREATED BY ACTION and ACTION is driven and defined by POTENCY.

On the measure of justice (GOVERNANCE)
Bandwidth as a measure of JUSTICE.
