Western Philosophy Is Where It's At

The world will have to study Western philosophy, if the world wants to get a real education, because Western philosophy is where it's at. The best and easiest way to study Western philosophy is to study my websites, because my writings are concise, to the point, profound, and they also bring clarity to the expression of ideas.

Jazzons Are Both Point and Nonpoint Particles

Jazzons are point particles, but their effects are not pointlike, because of their standing and travelling oscillations. In other words, jazzons are both point and nonpoint particles, because of the standing and travelling oscillatory nature of the jazzons. (10/11/08)

Oscillatory Point Theory

Oscillatory point theory is analogous to string theory, but instead of vibrating strings, oscillatory point theory consists of oscillatory points oscillating in a higher dimensional space than the three dimensional space of classical physics. The mathematics behind oscillatory point theory will have to be worked out by theoretical physicists, because I am just a philosopher. (10/11/08)

The Conscious Brain Is a Nonclassical Quantum Entanglement Computer

The mind is caused by nonclassical quantum entanglement that occurs at the synapses of brain cells by means of the neurotransmitter chemicals. In other words, the conscious brain is a nonclassical quantum entanglement computer. (10/12/08)

Time Is a Mental Phenomenon

Time is a mental phenomenon that does not exist outside of the mind, because nothing exists outside of the mind, since existence is a characteristic of the mind, and the mind is a characteristic of zero or nothingness. (10/12/08)

Everything that Exist Are Characteristics of the Mind

Everything that exist are characteristics of the mind, because nothing exists outside of the mind, since existence is a characteristic of the mind, and the mind is a characteristic of zero or nothingness. (10/12/08)

Infinity Has Infinite Entropy

Infinity has infinite entropy, while zero has zero entropy. (10/13/08)

Zero and Infinity Are Inseparable

Zero and infinity are inseparable from each other, because they are opposite aspects of the same thing. In other words, zero entropy and infinite entropy are opposite aspects of the same thing. Therefore, zero can be derived from infinity, and vice versa. Also, zero entropy can be derived from infinite entropy, and vice versa. (10/14/08)

The mind is a Characteristic of Both Zero and Infinity

If the mind is a characteristic of zero, then the mind is also a characteristic of infinity, because zero and infinity are inseparable characteristics of each other. In other words, the mind is a characteristic of both zero and infinity. (10/14/08)

Perhaps I Am Wrong

Perhaps I am wrong about zero having zero entropy, and infinity having infinite entropy. Perhaps it is the other way around. Maybe zero has infinite entropy, and infinity has zero entropy. In any event, zero and infinity are opposite aspects of the same thing (God). (10/14/08)

From Now On

From now on, I will state that zero has infinite entropy, while infinity has zero entropy, because I now believe that I have corrected a previous error in my thought. I hope that my students are observing how my thoughts are evolving, because that is also part of my teaching method: namely, teaching students how to be creative by personal examples. (10/15/08)

Zero and Infinity Are Eternal

Zero, which has infinite entropy, nonexists, while infinity, which has zero entropy, exists. Zero and infinity, which are reciprocals of each other, are eternal, because they always were, and always will be. Zero multiplied by infinity gives rise to everything in nature. In other words, everything in nature are illusions of zero multiplied by infinity. (10/15/08)

Jazzon Theory

Jazzon theory is the name that I have given to oscillatory point theory, because jazzons are the oscillatory point particles that give rise to mass/energy, and all the other characteristics of fundamental particles. I believe that jazzons oscillate in a multidimensional Euclidean space. (10/16/08)

Proof that Philosophy Is not Useless Knowledge

Postmodern minimalist philosophy (PMP) has the potential to contribute to any branch of learning, because PMP is a bridge discipline that links, interprets, and critiques all branches of learning using the aphorism and the short article. In other words, people who believe that philosophy is useless knowledge should read my websites, and judge for themselves whether philosophy is useless or not, because my websites are proof positive that philosophy is not useless knowledge. Believe it or not! QED! (10/17/08)

Bringing Philosophy Back from the Dead

In 1972, I told the US military, government scientists, and Congress that I planned to bring philosophy back from the dead someday, because I thought that philosophy was dead, due to the fact that philosophers weren't doing philosophy anymore, because philosophers were contemplating doing philosophy, instead of doing philosophy. With postmodern minimalist philosophy, aka Neoliberal Arts, I believe that I have brought philosophy back from the dead. Believe it or not! Amen and hallelujah! QED! :) (10/17/08)

The Fundamental Particle Zoo

The fundamental particle zoo is caused by the different shapes that the oscillating jazzons trace out in the multidimensional Euclidean space that the jazzons inhabit. The different shapes traced out by the oscillating jazzons represent different types of fundamental particles in the fundamental particle zoo. (10/17/08)

Explaining String Theory

Perhaps the strings in string theory are not really strings, but are the geometrical patterns that are generated by jazzons as the jazzons move on their oscillatory paths in multidimensional space. In other words, string theory can be derived from jazzon theory, because the strings in string theory are not really strings, but are the geometrical patterns generated by jazzons as the jazzons move on their oscillatory paths in multidimensional space. (10/18/08)

It Is Obvious that I Have Now Changed My Mind

In 1972, I told Congress to keep my name out of the media. Well, it is obvious that I have now changed my mind, so I hope that Congress will make my government files public, because I want publicity for my websites. (10/19/08)

Trickle-Up Economics

The US government has tried many economic theories over the years, including trickle-down economics. But, what the US government hasn't tried, and should try is trickle-up economics, which is the exact opposite of trickle-down economics. (10/19/08)

The Emerging Chinese, Indian, and Russian Creditor Cartel

China, India, and Russia have a great opportunity to form a powerful, and influential creditor cartel, if they were to bail out the West from its economic crisis with their huge reserves of Western currencies. By forming a creditor cartel, China, India, and Russia can have great leverage over the West economically, politically, and technologically, which is the rational thing for them to do. So, China, India, and Russia here is your big opportunity to start pulling some of the strings in the West, and the rest of the world as well. (10/20/08)

Causality

Causality is zero and infinity, which are reciprocals of each other. In other words, causality is infinite entropy and zero entropy, which are also reciprocals of each other. Causality gives rise to phenomena in nature when zero multiplies with infinity, or vice versa. (10/20/08)

Philosophical Collage Makers

I call the type of philosophy that most professional philosophers engage in: collage philosophy, because most professional philosophers do philosophy by creating philosophical collages out of other philosophers' works. In other words, most professional philosophers are philosophical collage makers, and not original thinkers, because collage philosophers seldom produce truly original philosophical works, except when the ideas in the philosophical collages belong to the philosophical collage makers themselves. (10/20/08)

Doing Real Philosophy

If philosophers want to learn how to do real philosophy, then they should study my websites, because postmodern minimalist philosophy, aka neoliberal arts, is real philosophy, while in most cases collage philosophy is not real philosophy. I am aware that my philosophy can also be called collage philosophy, but my philosophy is original collage philosophy, therefore my philosophy is real philosophy. Believe it or not! QED! (10/20/08)

Collage Philosophy Is Seldom Real Philosophy

Most professional philosophers are collage philosophers, but collage philosophy is seldom real philosophy, because it seldom adds anything new to philosophy. Real philosophy, like postmodern minimalist philosophy, has to be original, because otherwise philosophy will just be collage philosophy, which seldom adds anything new to philosophy. Collage philosophy is real philosophy only when the ideas in the philosophical collages belong to the philosophical collage makers themselves. (10/21/08)

I Shall not Be Denied

My websites can be used to conquer the world, the universe, and beyond. However, I do not care which ethnic group(s) uses my websites to conquer the world, the universe, and beyond, because all I care about is that the human race survives and prospers in the future. I am rooting for any ethnic group(s) that takes my websites seriously, because I shall not be denied. Believe it or not! QED! (10/21/08)

What Makes One a True Philosopher?

One is not a true philosopher, if one merely rehashes the philosophical ideas of past philosophical masters, because true philosophers have to produce original philosophical ideas of their own to be considered to be true philosophers. Believe it or not! QED! (10/22/08)

What makes One a Truly Educated Person?

What makes one a truly educated person is an education in Western philosophy, and the easiest way to get an education in Western philosophy is to study postmodern minimalist philosophy, aka neoliberal arts. Neoliberal arts will teach students how to think creatively by teaching them how to connect the intellectual dots by personal examples. (10/23/08)

The Neolaw of Entropy Is the Highest Law of God in Nature

The Neolaw of Entropy, which is about the struggle between the Law of Entropy and the Law of Anti-Entropy, is the highest law of God in nature. In other words, the Neolaw of Entropy is the law of nature that governs all other laws in nature. (10/25/08)

Truly Educated People

Truly educated people would accept the truth from any source, even if the source is a chimpanzee that is gesturing in sign language. (10/26/08)

Elitist Scumbags Will not Accept the Truth from Unofficial Sources

Elitist scumbags will not accept the truth from unofficial sources, because elitist scumbags are not truly educated, due to the fact that truly educated people would accept the truth from any source, even if the source is an unofficial source. (10/26/08)

Zero Entropy Multiplied by Infinite Entropy

Zero entropy multiplied by infinite entropy gives rise to everything in nature, because zero entropy represents infinity, while infinite entropy represents zero, and, 0=0/0=X=0/0=0, is the Ferreira Genesis Equation. (10/27/08)

The True Nature of Time

Time is caused when zero (nothingness) gets multiplied by infinity, or, to put it another way, time results from the multiplication of zero entropy by infinite entropy, or vice versa. (10/27/08)

Infinitropy Is Short for Infinite Entropy

Infinitropy is short for infinite entropy, which is the state of nonexistence or unconsciousness. Infinitropy is the reciprocal or opposite of zerotropy (zero entropy). I now believe that death is a state of infinitropy, and before we are conceived, we are also in a state of infinitropy. (10/28/08)

World Philosophy

World philosophy has to be synonymous with Western philosophy, because Western philosophy is the only nondead-end philosophy in the world. Other philosophies might contain certain truths, but they are all dead-end philosophies. (10/28/08)

Information Control = Mind Control

The most important equation for all social and cultural interactions is: Information control = Mind Control. One cannot be truly free without understanding the above equation, because the above equation is at heart of all important freedoms. (10/28/08)

Freedom of Information = Mind Liberation

Anyone who does not believe in the equation: Freedom of information = Mind liberation, is a fool, because the above equation is true and necessary for a healthy, informed, and liberated mind. (10/28/08)

An Elitist Education Is an Oxymoronic Expression

An elitist education is an oxymoronic expression, because truly educated people would accept the truth from any source, even if the source is a chimpanzee that is gesturing in sign language. (10/29/08)

Perceiving Other Minds Is Possible

I believe that perceiving other minds is possible using panmultiversal panacean computers (PPCs), but that would not disprove solipsism, because we would be perceiving other minds with our own minds, and all that we perceive are the characteristics of our own minds. Therefore, solipsism is still undefeatable, even if we can perceive other minds. (10/29/08)

I Want My Students to Be Nonelitists

I want my students to obtain a true education, and that is why I want them to accept the truth from any source, even if the source is an unofficial source, or a chimpanzee that is gesturing in sign language. In other words, I want my students to be nonelitists, because an elitist education is an oxymoronic expression. Believe it or not! QED! (10/29/08)

Programming the World with Philosophy

If one has philosophical talent, one can program the world with one's own philosophy over the Internet. The Internet is allowing ordinary people like you and me to have our opportunities to influence the whole world with our own philosophies. Please make use of this great opportunity now, because no one knows for sure what tomorrow will bring. Try and program the world for the better, and you might be surprised at how much fun it is. To me, trying to program the world for the better with my philosophical writings is more fun than gambling, sex, or drugs. It should be noted that the lists of courses taken by students each semester at colleges and universities are called programs. Believe it or not! QED! (10/30/08)

Maxwell's Demon(s)

Panmultiversal panacean computers (PPCs) will turn out to be Maxwell's demon(s) for real, because PPCs will help human beings beat the second law of entropy, due to the fact that the neolaw of entropy will make it possible for PPCs to defeat the second law of thermodynamics. (10/30/08)

Information Chain Reactions

In the age of the Internet, if the common man or woman were to develop an important philosophical idea, or any other important idea for that matter, he or she can publish the idea on the Internet and cause good or bad information chain reactions in the world's population as the case might be. (10/30/08)

Universalizing the Comprehensibility of Knowledge

The popularization of technical knowledge by simplifying it is not dumbing down or cheapening of the technical knowledge, but is a means of allowing narrow specialists in different narrow fields of specialization to understand each other, as well as allowing the general public to understand the technical knowledge. In other words, popularizing technical knowledge by simplifying it is a means of universalizing the comprehensibility of knowledge, and not dumbing down or cheapening of technical knowledge as elitist scumbags would have us believe. Believe it or not! QED! (10/30/08)

The Most Effective Type of Economics

The most effective type of economics is trickle-up economics in which consumer spending is subsidized by the government. Trickle-up economics is fairer than trickle-down economics, which is the only type of economics that has been tried so far, because all other types of economics tried so far by the world are really trickle-down economics in one form or another. (10/30/08)

My Motives for Caring About the World

My motives for caring about the world are purely selfish ones, because I want to be resurrected in the future by panmultiversal panacean computers (PPCs), due to the fact that I believe that it will be possible to resurrect the dead in the future when PPCs have the ability to tap into zero entropy, which has perfect order, knowledge, and wisdom. (10/31/08)

Black and Hispanic Studies

Black and Hispanic Studies can benefit very much from neoliberal arts, aka postmodern minimalist philosophy, because neoliberal arts will open up the multiverse of ideas to students of Black and Hispanic Studies. Neoliberal arts will also teach students of Black and Hispanic Studies how to be creative by personal examples. (11/1/08)

Students in the Caribbean

Students in the Caribbean can benefit very much from neoliberal arts, aka postmodern minimalist philosophy, because neoliberal arts will open up the multiverse of ideas to students in the Caribbean. Neoliberal arts will also teach students in the Caribbean how to be creative by personal examples. (11/1/08)

What Religious People Do not Talk About

What religious people do not talk about is the fact that, if God is infinite, then it would mean that there is an infinite number of Gods, because there is an infinite number of different sized infinities. And, if there is an infinite number of Gods, then there might be an infinite number of creations that are governed by separate Gods. (11/1/08)

The God of Our Universe

The God of our universe could be the mind of a desktop nonclassical computer that was created by a mad scientist in another universe, and we could be in the mind of the God in the desktop nonclassical computer that the mad scientist has created. (11/1/08)

People Should Never Stop Dreaming Impossible Dreams

People should never stop dreaming impossible dreams, because there probably are no impossible dreams. So, dream on! (11/1/08)
