Determinism, Indeterminism, and Creativity
Whether determinism or indeterminism is true or false is besides the point, because the truth or falsehood of determinism or indeterminism will not change or affect human creativity on a pragmatic level, because what human beings have always called creativity cannot be altered by knowing the truth or falsehood of determinism or indeterminism. The human will is the will of God from the perspective of the self, and that means that both determinism and indeterminism are true on different levels of reality, because God is omnipotent, omniscient, and capable of creative acts on different levels of reality.

Philonetism
Philonetism is the philosophical doctrine that states that the Internet is now everyone's classroom and scientific laboratory, because everyone with access to the Internet can now study and experiment on the world, due to the fact that the Internet gives everyone with an Internet connection access to the world. In other words, the world is now everyone's classroom and scientific laboratory, because of the Internet and the World Wide Web. (9/30/07)
The Missing Mass in the Universe Consists of Virtual Particles
If the missing mass (dark matter) in the universe consists of virtual particles, it would prove that gravity is an instantaneous force, because, if gravity is an instantaneous force, it would prove the missing mass (dark matter) in the universe to be virtual particles, because each virual particle would contribute its mass, and thus its gravity to the total mass (gravity) of the universe for the duration of time that each virtual particle is in existence. (10/1/07)
Virtual Particles Are Dark Matter
Virtual particles are dark matter, and they can explain the missing mass in the universe, if gravity is an instantaneous force as I believe it to be. (10/1/07)
Virtual Particles Are the Missing Mass
Virtual particles are the missing mass in the universe, because gravity is an instantaneous force according to me. If gravity is an instantaneous force, as I believe it to be, then it would solve the missing mass problem, because virtual particles would contribute a great deal of mass to the universe. (10/1/07)
The Spiritual Realm and Zerotropy
Zerotropy (zero entropy) unifies the spiritual realm with the rest of nature, because zerotropy has perfect order, knowledge, and wisdom, which is what spirituality is or should be about. Spirituality should be about God, and not about religion, because religion is about crap for the most part. (10/1/07)
Missing Mass=Virtual Particles=Dark Matter
Missing mass=virtual particles=dark matter. The above (preceding) equation has to be correct, because exotic matter is crap. (10/1/07)
Leapfrogging the West, Intellectually Speaking
My writings are proof positive that it is possible to leapfrog the West, intellectually speaking, because my writings have gone way beyond Western intellectual thought. NonWestern intellectuals should follow my example and leapfrog the West, intellectually speaking, because I am living proof that it can be done. (10/2/07)
The Human Will Is the Will of God
The human will is the will of God from the perspective of the self, and that means that both determinism and indeterminism are true on different levels of reality, because God is omnipotent, omniscient, and capable of creative acts on different levels of reality. (10/2/07)
The Ultimate Meaning of the Word Intellectual
The ultimate meaning of the word intellectual is one who is a postmodern minimalist philosopher or scholar. A postmodern minimalist philosopher or scholar is one who links, interprets, and critiques all branches of learning using the aphorism and the short article. (10/2/07)
Gravity Waves Do not Exist
The energy losses of certain astronomical objects that are assumed to be due to gravity waves, are really due to instantaneous gravity transfers between the astronomical objects and the rest of the universe, because gravity waves do not exist, due to the fact that gravity is an instantaneous force. (10/2/07)
Religion Is Dead!
Religion is dead and will be replaced by neoreligion in this century. Neoreligion is about the worship of zerotropy (zero entropy), which is God, because zerotropy means perfect order, knowledge, and wisdom. (10/2/07)
Neoreligion
Neoreligion is not based on sacred texts, but is based on science, reason, and postmodern minimalist philosophy. Most of my life, I have underestimated the desire and craving of most people to believe in some sort of religion, so I now believe that, if people want to believe in religion, they should believe in neoreligion, because neoreligion is based on science, reason, and neoalchemism, or postmodern minimalist philosophy. The tenets of neoreligion can be gleaned from my books and websites. I never thought that my writings can form the basis of a new religion (neoreligion), but I have now come to the conclusion that they can. (10/2/07)
I Believe in Neoreligion
After a lifetime of not believing in religion, I have finally come to the conclusion that I believe in neoreligion, because neoreligion has no sacred texts, and is scientific, rational, and philosophical. In other words, neoreligion is about neoreligious beliefs: namely, Neoliberal Arts. (10/2/07)
The eChurches of the eChurch of Zerotropy
My websites can also be considered to be the eChurches of the eChurch of Zerotropy, because they are the homes of the neoreligion of the eChurch of Zerotropy. The eChurches of the eChurch of Zerotropy are open to anyone with an Internet connection. However, the eChurches of the eChurch of Zerotropy are not Christian Churches, because the eChurch of Zerotropy does not believe in sacred texts of any kind. (10/3/07)
Religion vs Neoreligion
Religion is about the belief in sacred texts, while neoreligion is about the belief in zerotropy (God), and about the disbelief in all sacred texts. I am proud to say that I am now neoreligious, because I believe in the neoreligion of the eChurch of Zerotropy. (10/4/07)
I Am Now Neoreligious
I am now neoreligious, because I believe in neoreligion of the eChurch of Zerotropy. To be neoreligious is to believe in zerotropy, which means zero entropy (God). Zerotropy means perfect order, knowledge, and wisdom. Neoreligious people believe that God helps those who help themselves. (10/4/07)
America Has to Stop Throwing Away the Book
In order for there to be peace and harmony in foreign lands, America has to stop throwing away the book, and must also encourage other countries to do the same when they are in foreign lands. "The Book" is the book of the rules of military, business, and diplomatic engagement when in foreign lands. In other words, the US Constitution should still be in effect when Americans engage foreigners in foreign lands. (10/4/07)
The Supreme Document
The US Constitution should always be the supreme document for all Americans in their dealings with all the peoples of the world, the universe, and beyond no matter where in the world or the universe and beyond that the people might be located. (10/4/07)
A Nonclassical Quantum Entanglement Computer
The human brain is proof that nonclassical quantum entanglement can occur at body temperature, because the human brain is a nonclassical quantum entanglement computer that operates at body temperature. (10/4/07)
The American Rules of Engagement
President Bush should spend his last year in office trying to clarify the American rules of engagement for all Americans on foreign soil. If President Bush were to do so, he would be remembered for doing so by history. The new American rules of engagement for all Americans on foreign soil will become "The Neobook" that should never be throwned away by Americans in their dealings with all peoples on foreign soil. (10/5/07)
The Culture, Language, and Religion of a People
I cannot emphasize enough that the culture, language, and religion of a people can be as devastating as any natural or manmade disaster, if the people of that culture, language, and religion do not believe in science, technology, philosophy, capitalism, democracy, and the rule of law. It should be noted that the alleged worthlessness of philosophy is a malicious lie that is perpetrated by academia against philosophy, in order to keep the common people ignorant. (10/6/07)
The Philosophical or Neoreligious Approaches
People who cannot tolerate the scientific, or mathematical approaches to science and mathematics should consider the philosophical, or neoreligious approaches to science and mathematics, because the philosophical and neoreligious approaches to science and mathematics are very exciting and easy to understand. The neoreligious approach of the eChurch of Zerotropy to all branches of learning is indistinguishable from postmodern minimalist philosophy or Neoliberal Arts. People who believe in the doctrines of the eChurch of Zerotropy are called zerotropists, because they believe in zerotropism, which is the doctrines of the eChurch of Zerotropy. (10/6/07)
Going by the Book
If America were to go by the book in its foreign policy, America would become the most loved nation on earth. Going by the book is always a good idea, in foreign policy as well as domestic policy, if the book does not violate the US Constitution, because obeying the US Constitution in foreign policy as well as domestic policy can win the whole world for America. (10/7/07)
Zerotropism
Zerotropism is about the neoreligious and philosophical doctrines of, Keith N. Ferreira, aka Professor QED, of the University of Neoliberal Arts. In other words, another name for zerotropism is Ferreirism, which is the ultimate philosophy and neoreligion. It should be noted that the "QED" in, Professor QED, stands for "Quod Erat Demonstrandum," which is Latin for "which was to be proven or demonstrated." (10/8/07)
Matter and Energy Concentrate Virtual Particles
Matter and energy concentrate virtual particles, and that is why most of the missing mass in the universe is concentrated in galaxies. In other words, most of the missing mass in the galaxies are virtual particles. Therefore, there is no need to invoke exotic matter to account for the missing mass in the universe. (10/10/07)
I Rank with the Greatest Philosophers of All Time
I have enough confidence in my own intellectual abilities to know that I rank with the greatest philosophers of all time. And that is not just an empty boast, because the proof can be found in my books, and on my websites. I will let the future, and not my contemporaries, be the final judge of my abilities as a philosopher. (10/10/07)
Propulsion Rockets Are no Way to Explore Deep Space
Propulsion rockets of any kind are no way to explore deep space, because deep space is too vast, and propulsion rockets are too slow. Even traveling at the speed of light is too slow for deep space travel. Therefore, the only solution to deep space travel is flying saucers with instantaneous teleportion capabilities, and that is exactly what neoalchemical computers are capable of: namely, instantaneous teleportation space travel. In other words, flying saucers of the future will have neoalchemical computers onboard. (10/10/07)
Propulsion Rockets Are Dead!
Propulsion rockets are dead! Long live neoalchemical computers! (10/10/07)
India
I am glad to see that India is rapidly Westernizing its economy, science, technology, politics, etc. India can do even better, if it were to study my websites, and learn from them. In fact, I am glad to see the whole Asian region doing so well. Keep up the good work! If only African and Caribbean countries would contract the same Western culture bugs as the Asian countries. (10/11/07)
The Mind
The mind is caused, on the physical level, by nonclassical quantum entanglement in the human brain. Nonclassical quantum entanglement hasn't been proven as yet, but I believe that it has to exist, because it will explain why quantum related entanglement can exist at body temperature. In other words, nonclassical quantum entanglement explains the mind completely from the physical perspective. However, perceptions still cannot be explained from the mental perspective. For instance, the perception of color, sound, pain, etc. still cannot be explained from the mental perspective. (10/12/07)
Conventional Technology Is Dead!
Conventional technology is dead! Long live neoalchemical computers! (10/12/07)
Postmodern Minimalist Technology
Postmodern minimalist technology consists of neoalchemical computers, which are the panuniversal panaceas (cure-alls) of the neoalchemists. Neoalchemical computers are postmodern in the sense that they are beyond modern technology, and they are minimalist in the sense that they combine all technologies into one technology. (10/12/07)
Philosophy
What I always wanted to do with the discipline of philosophy is to resurrect it from the dead, because I thought it was dead or about to die. I also wanted to make philosophy popular for the general public by transforming philosophy into a simple and understandable subject. I believe that I am slowly accomplishing my philosophical tasks that I have set for myself, because I believe that philosophy should belong to the general public and not to ivory-tower academics, and I am beginning to see signs that the general public is beginning to take an interest in philosophy. (10/12/07)
Nietzsche and I
Here are some aphorisms of Nietzshe: http://www.pitt.edu/~wbcurry/nietzsche.html. You might find that they sound very much like mine. Nietsche and I have a lot in common, including mental illness. Nietsche was one of Germany's greatest philosophers, and I hope to become one of America's greatest philosophers as well. Only time will tell. :) Most of the hits on my websites come from NYC. (10/12/07)
The Ultimate Environmentally Friendly Technology
The ultimate environmentally friendly technology is neoalchemical computers, because they are the panuniversal panaceas of the neoalchemists. Neoalchemical computers can obtain clean energy from any source, including common dirt. (10/12/07)
The Ultimate Medical Technology
The ultimate medical technology is neoalchemical computers, because they are the panuniversal panaceas of the neoalchemists. Neoalchemical computers will usher in the fountain of youth, everlasting life, resurrection, etc. on the earth, the universe, and beyond. All this is possible, because God (zerotropy) helps those who help themselves. (10/12/07)
Nietzsche and Sanity
As I grow older and older, Nietzsche's writings sound saner and saner to me, but that is probably because, as I grow older and older, I am becoming more and more insane. :) (10/12/07)
I Recommend the Writings of Nietzsche to My Readers
I recommend the writings of Nietzsche to my readers, because his writings are not insane after all. Like me, Nietzsche was not afraid to say what he really thought, because he wasn't afraid to be wrong.
(10/12/07)
White Mice Are the Scientific Measure of All Human Beings
White mice are the scientific measure of all human beings. No further comment on this subject, because the above is self-explanatory. (10/12/07)
The Fact Remains
Perhaps human beings might never know for certain, if our universe was contrived or not, because the fact remains that our universe could have been contrived by a being or beings like you or me in a more advanced reality. (10/13/07)
Popular Academic Scholarship
Neoliberal Arts is a means of enabling the general public to engage in popular academic scholarship or postmodern minimalist scholarship, which is also known as postmodern minimalist philosophy. For most of my life, I have been trying to find ways to close the intellectual gap between academia and the general public, because I believe that doing so is important to the future of humanity. (10/13/07)
Secret Knowledge and Wisdom Are Dead!
Secret knowledge and wisdom are dead!, because Neoliberal Arts is knowledge and wisdom that are way beyond any secret knowledge and wisdom of secret societies, so people no longer have to seek knowledge and wisdom from secret societies, because the knowledge and wisdom of Neoliberal Arts are public knowledge, and way beyond any secret knowledge and wisdom of secret societies. (10/14/07)
Ethics and Esthetics
Ethics should become a subbranch of the study of law, while esthetics should become a subbranch of the study of psychology, because ethics and esthetics are mature enough to branch off from the mother tree which is philosophy. (10/14/07)
Mathematical Causality
Contact and noncontact causality are illusions of mathematical causality. Mathematical causality is the causality of nature, because nature is natural mathematics, and everything is mathematical. In other words, God is mathematics, which is an aspect of the Fundamental Trinity: namely, language, logic, and mathematics. (10/14/07)
My Intellectual Mistakes
I hope that my readers learn from what they might perceive to be my intellectual mistakes, because I know that I have made intellectual mistakes. As I have said on more than one occasion: I am not afraid to be wrong, because "nothing ventured, nothing gained," and "people can learn from their own and other people's mistakes." (10/15/07)
Expertise vs Creativity
The main task of philosophy is not to provide expertise, but to provide creativity. It is possible to have expertise and no creativity, or vice versa, and that is why I believe that philosophy should provide creativity, and not necessarily expertise, because I believe that philosophy should remain an art form, and not try to become a science. Most philosophers have forgotten that philosophy is an art form, and should remain an art form. (10/15/07)
Philosophy Is the Food of the Gods
Solving important scientific and technological problems ranks one among the great demigods of history, but solving important philosophical problems ranks one among the gods of all time. In other words, philosophy is the food of the gods, while science and technology are the foods of the demigods. (10/15/07)
Tapping into Zerotropy
I believe that it is possible to tap into the mind of zerotropy using neoalchemical computers. Therefore, the infinite wealth of information that is stored in zerotropy (zero entropy) will be available to human beings someday. (10/15/07)
Negative Numbers
Negative numbers are positive numbers with negative operational attributes. In other words, negative numbers do not have separate identities apart from positive numbers, because negative numbers are different aspects of positive numbers. (10/16/07)
