The Basic God
A reader makes this comment:
“What could mankind do in 100-1000 years by observing survival knowledge born in organisms and then applying it in humans through DNA manipulation?”
JJ: When one contemplates the Law of Correspondences, he can see that doing this is indeed a possibility.
A human is born in a very helpless condition and needs a caretaker to do everything for him if he is to survive.
When an animal is born it is pretty much ready to go. After a calf or horse is born it will be running around within minutes and seems almost as smart as its mother. The animals have built in programming to assist them that we lack. Why is this?
Part of the reason may be that the animal kingdom has had a longer time to program themselves for survival.
It is true that we depend more on mind than instinct for our survival and perhaps as we progress we will program many things into our nature that does not exist within the animals. It is interesting to speculate what that may be but by using correspondences we can get an idea.
Since the animals are born with built in programming that makes them ready to go at birth then it is most likely human babies will wind up being born with greater and greater abilities as times goes on until a human may have the consciousness of an adult by the age of eight rather than 21 as it is now.
It is indeed food for thought.
Reader Comment: Arthur C Clarke seemed quite the visionary and initiate of his time…. “In a taped interview with the Australian Broadcasting Corporation in 1974, Clark is questioned by the interviewer as to how he believes the computer will change the future for the everyday person and what life will be like around the year 2001. Clarke accurately predicts many things which have become a reality, among them online banking, online shopping and other commonplace things. In responding to the interviewer’s question about how his [the interviewer’s] son’s life will be different, Clark responds: “He will have, in his own house, not a computer as big as this, [points to nearby computer], but at least, a console through which he can talk, through his local computer and get all the information he needs, for his everyday life, like his bank statements, his theater reservations, all the information you need in the course of living in our complex modern society, this will be in a compact form in his own house … and he will take it as much for granted as we take the telephone.” Source of Quote
JJ: This was one of the most accurate predictions I have ever read. On the other hand, space travel has not progressed anything like he predicted for 2001. His writings show what could have been if we had continued financing the space program like we did in the Sixties.
Intelligent Design
Reader: I don’t get your logic here JJ. So, because the human body is inconceivably complex and can reproduce itself it therefore had an intelligent designer?
I don’t understand everything about the moon, nor do I know how it came into existence. But According to your above logic it was also intelligently designed. I’m not saying I’m an Atheist, nor am I saying God can’t be logically proven, only that I don’t see how the ladder of logic flows from your premises to their conclusion.
What am missing?
JJ The Difference between the moon and the human cell is like the difference between a snowflake and an iPad. One is an accumulation of natural patterns, the other an accumulation of design that had to come from some source.
Reader: Yet the indwelling entity/monad of the moon is of a much higher order than the indwelling entity/monad of the human cell, or even the indwelling entity/monad of a human individual? So the moon’s monad only requires a vehicle which is an accumulation of natural patterns in order to eventually manifest full intelligence/glory while the cell is glorified through incredibly complex design and its own evolution?
And the correspondence would seem lacking from the standpoint that the snowflake’s monad is nothing compared to the monad of the iPad7?
Am I missing something?
JJ: You are missing the fact that the moon is a dead decaying body and the monad, the logos and the intelligent lives that once lived on it are long gone. Now the moon has little evidence left of design but still has its natural patterns of creation.
On the other hand, the earth is a living planet composed of lots of things that give evidence of intelligent design, not the least of which are humans such as you and me. It also has a monad and logos incarnated into its body which is lacking on the moon.
A computer shows evidence of intelligent design though it doesn’t have an incarnated monad or logos – and it does have elemental lives involved.
If you can find a path with no obstacles, it probably doesn’t lead anywhere. – Frank A. Clark
