THE EVOLUTION OF REASONING

FYI, I am awake because two pain killers, anti-inflammatory, and two medicines for sleep have all failed.  And so, the record is clear, everything I am taking is based on a prescription by the VA.  I am on my 5th antibiotic, and the infection has not dissipated one bit.  I am holding only because I finally see the surgeon on Monday. 

I am one of those people who do not respond to morphine.  When I was in the hospital last week, they gave me morphine and were surprised not only did it not help, I also did not get any sensation of a high. After my spinal surgery and gallbladder removal, they sedated me after I woke up, because no painkiller would work.

IF YOUR PROCESS OF REASONING FITS IN A CUBBYHOLE, IT IS NOT REASONING

Imagine two 4 oz balls side by side 4 inches apart.  Then in front of them at an equal distance away, are two 2 oz balls.  Use your finger to hit each two-inch ball towards the 4-inch balls.  The reaction in each will not be the same.  

You cannot duplicate any person.  The process of growth starting from conception even in identical twins, cannot be duplicated in each twin identically.  There will always be differences.  The point is, there is no biological evidence that any two people are actually alike. 

To the extent we cubbyhole people on some spectrum, we are in fact denying their existence. 

I am sorry, but as diversity in identities is changing, so too is the social construct as to gender, or in fact an acceptance there is no gender.   This is increasingly accepted by the medical community and individuals, who do not want to be locked into a label which does not fully define who they are. 

I find all LGTB labels to be oppressive because they force people into one label, instead of simply allowing them to be themselves without explanation. 

If you define yourself by a label which does not truly define self, then you will always be a prisoner to the days social construct to that label, never realizing your true self.

EXAMPLE:  "a 58-year-old woman presents herself at an ER with chest and arm pain." Compare to "a patient presents themself at an ER with chest and arm pain." When you cubbyhole yourself, you will be treated within the construct of your cubbyhole identity.  Yes, it is true a doctor is not going to recommend a man have a hysterectomy. But with each gender comes biases which will direct the doctor in their care.  But if they see you as an individual, they may not put you into a cubbyhole which does not define your true self. 

I know a seemly heterosexual woman who feels the social construct around gender to be oppressive. She is adamant, the social construct around gender her enslaves her.  What is female anyway?  There are women who are happily married to men, who insists on dressing like a man.  

ALL WORDS ARE TEMPORAL

All words, concepts and belief systems are temporal and unreal, and subject to evolution based on new inputs.

Words are nothing more than a sound which describes what you see.  But if what you see evolves, then the word must evolve.  I have multiple period dictionaries so if I am reading a document from 1512, for example, I can look up the meaning of all key words as defined in 1512. 

In various indigenous tribes in the Amazon, there is no word for grandparent.  Why, no one has lived long enough to be a grandparent.  They have not observed it, so they have not created a sound designating someone as a grantparent. 

With every new input every word, concept, or believe system changes.

Look at religion; they have all changed over the millennials as reality has changed.

I am confident most prophets, and philosopher never intended their observations to be locked in stone.  They all knew through their studies evolution was inevitable. 

Based on evolution of thought and my belief labels are oppressive, I no longer believe in gender. So, when I look at someone and engage with them, their content of character more readily stands out to me.  It is amazing how often I see no gender.

KARL MARX COULD NOT HAVE FORESEEN CORPORATISM OR A WILLINGNESS OF THE PEOPLE TO SURRENDER THEIR PRIVACY. 

Marx's dialectic of the history of economies remains correct.  His prediction on how the economies would evolve changed.  We are in an oppressive state of corporatism, and complete surrender of our privacy.  Are we going backwards as to our individual freedoms or will this new reality at some point bring us greater freedoms. Freedom is relative to your needs.  

I believe in free speech, but it may not be key to freedom.  Yes, the poor are free to speak their mind, while dying of hunger. What is more important to meaningful freedom?  Your children being fed, having a roof over their head, healthcare, and an education, or the right to yell "the government is corrupt."  Because the latter will not protect your children. 

In this era of Trump, many people voted for a change they believe would be meaningful.  They have reprioritized their immediate needs. It could come back at them in a way they do not want, but given their evolution of thought, maybe something society sees as oppressive will now be beneficial.

Whatever you believe is oppressive or beneficial, today in a few short years may change.  Your thought will have evolved. 

We are hit with a barrage of new information every day.  No word, concept or belief system is real.  they are temporal and unreal.  If they can evolve, they are temporal, and unreal.
