The Internet – from the ‘democratisation of knowledge’ to a surveillance state à la 1984?

How the Internet was celebrated in the 1990s: access to knowledge suddenly became much easier. Everyone could educate themselves. In addition, freedom of expression reached a new level: anyone could create a website and write whatever they wanted on it, accessible to everyone.

But from the very beginning, dark forces were at work in the background, viewing the Internet primarily as a means of controlling the population. Intelligence agencies built up extensive databases on every single inhabitant of the world, based on what they revealed about themselves on the Internet.

As realistic-minded people have long recognised, running a website or blog now poses a risk: because everything you reveal about yourself can be used against you.

But that's not all: posts on social media or other channels can also be monitored and evaluated.

As people spend more and more time on the internet and many administrative procedures are already carried out online, the dark forces have more and more opportunities to find out things about them.

We ordinary citizens are left with no choice but to be well-behaved and compliant.

A Proof of the CTMU - Sketch

The CTMU is a theoretic model proposed by Christopher Langan. More information on it can be found at: https://ctmucommunity.org/wiki/ The core statement of the CTMU is: The Cognitive-Theoretic Model of the Universe is a language that describes itself. Another statement is: The Cognitive-Theoretic Model of the Universe is equivalent to Reality. From this follows: The universe is a language that describes itself. A language is a set of words that are generated using a set of rules called a formal grammar. A language can describe other languages - for example, English can describe French - and it can also describe itself - English can describe English. There is nothing that exists outside of the universe - everything that exists does so inside the universe. For this reason whatever describes the universe, as well as the language using which it does it, exists inside the universe. Therefore it it is legitimate to state that the universe describes itself. Since the language using which the...

The Synthesis of Metaphysics and Jungian Personality Theory

Image
A debate on Facebook dealing with the idea that one could continue living after his/her death if one uploaded the contents of one‘s brain onto a computer has stimulated me to thinking about the relationship between mind and matter. The conclusions I have come up with are far-reaching: they explain what probably is the true self of a person, why there probably is a life after death, and all of a sudden, Carl Gustav Jung‘s theory of psychological functions makes sense as I have managed to build a model of the human organism from which most of Jung‘s theory follows per logical deduction. The first time I read about the idea of uploading one‘s brain onto a computer was about 20 years ago. I immediately rejected the notion that a dead person would continue living if just the contents of his/her brain would be uploaded onto a computer. Even disregarding that a human being also has a body, I simply do not believe that I would consciously experience the thinking process of such an artificial b...

Integrating Mathematical and Logical Reasoning to Establish the Existence of God: A Multidisciplinary Scientific and Philosophical Approach

By Iakovos Koukas (March 2024) Abstract: This paper presents a comprehensive scientific and philosophical research into the existence of God through the integration of mathematical modeling and logical reasoning across multiple scientific fields. By examining key phenomena in protein folding, the origin of life, fine-tuning of physical constants, complex systems in ecology, quantum mechanics, neuroscience, cosmology and genetics, I demonstrate that empirical evidence and rigorous analysis support the conclusion of an intelligent designer, such as the theistic God. Through mathematical simulations, statistical analyses, and logical deduction, we provide definitive answers to ancient questions regarding the existence of a divine creator.   Introduction: The question of the existence of God has been causing heated debate and speculation across various disciplines for thousands of years. In this paper, I approach this question from a multidisciplinary perspective, using mathematical an...
