• What significance does set theory have to us as a species?
  
  The species is a total summation of the actions of its members. The species takes on a uniqueness generated by its members.
  
  The first example of a Venn diagram is that composed of one circle which demonstrates the existence of only a physical universe, demonstrates the existence of the lack of a Creator of the physical universe, demonstrates the concept of Atheism.  
  
  Atheism offers the individual a sense of responsibility only to one’s self. Once the individual dies the individual's awareness is permanently eliminated.
  
  With Atheism the death of a species leads to the death of that species' collective awareness should that species, such as humankind, have awareness.
  
  The second example of a Venn diagram  is again composed of one circle. This time the circle demonstrates the existence of a physical universe which itself is the Creator. In this case the physical universe is God/Brahma/... , this is pantheism (not pan-EN-theism).
  
  If the universe has existed for a time span as science suggests (science estimates the age of the universe is 13 billion years) then the universe will eventually die and  thus eternal existence of the universe is temporary, as religions and the sciences believe. Pantheism offers the species a sense of responsibility only to itself.
  
  Again once the species dies, all significance for the species also dies. 
  
  Pantheism has no explanation for 'creation ex nihilio'.
  
  Venn diagram #3: Eternal existence is a possibility, for something exists beyond the universe. But the Causative Force exists separate from the universe.
  
  There are two circles drawn where each circle share nothing in common.
  
  This demonstrates the Creator of the physical universe 'transcending' the physical.
  
  This is present perception of Western religion.
  
  In this case doubt exists as to where your soul will go, what your soul is, and what the purpose of your soul is. Doubt also exists as to the value of your fellow humans and to where your soul will finally come to rest.
  
  Venn diagram #4: The Causative Force exists and nestles the universe, and you along with the it, in Her/His/It's existence . No more doubt. Your body may die, but your awareness, soul, will not.
  
  This is pan-EN-theism.
  
  No one can keep your ethereal self, your soul - should you have a soul, out of the Creator for you already exist 'within' the Creator, 'within' Brahma, 'within' God.
  
  In this case the universe may die, but the awareness generated within it will not. There is no doubt where that awareness would go – into the arms of the Causative Force. You and what you help your species become would be part of the total, a part of the Causative Force.
  
  This is an evolution are leap in human perception concerning the Whole of Reality.
  
  This understanding provides something sorely lacking in Western thinking, provides the rational dialectic supporting the argument for human significance and value both within time and beyond time, both in terms of physical existence as well as in terms of the non-physical, in terms of eternity.
  
  Pan-EN-theism lays the groundwork for our species to justify our continued existence even in the face of advanced AI or extraterrestrial confrontations.
  
  

Set theory offers a clear depiction of just what we are, where we are, and why we are. Set theory offers our species purpose, responsibility, hope, and the elimination of doubt.

Set theory clearly demonstrate the significance of Pan-EN-theism to humanity.

Set theory clearly demonstrate the significance of Pan-EN-theism to humanity.

If we do not develop the rationale as to why we as individuals and as a species are different from machinery incorporating artificial intelligence than we will not be able to rationalize why it is we should not be replaced by artificial intelligence once artificial intelligent machinery develops to the point of its being more intellectually advanced than humankind.

Panentheism, through its rationalization of the human individual and human species being made in the image of the creator of the universe.

The creator of the physical universe being non-physical in nature leads to its image being also non-physical in nature. 

Panentheism defines the individual human and human species location in terms of the creator of the physical universe as being 'inside' (pan-all EN-in theism-God/the creator of the physical universe). 

Thus we understand the rational of our, human individuals' - the human species') true essence as being ethereal in nature while machines with artificial intelligence are not made in the image of the creator of the physical universe are simply, yet complexly, physical entities with no component of ethereal existence.

Thus our (not our physical essence but our ethereal essence) rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are granted by our creator, granted by the creator of the physical universe which does not interpolate into the same being true of physical machinery with artificial intelligence regardless of the ability of that machinery's capability to learn, create or dominate.

Without panentheism we as individuals and as a species are doomed to eventual subjugation by machinery with artificial intelligence since eventually machinery with artificial intelligence will eventually supersede human intelligence capabilities and with no rationalization available to us as individuals and as a species we will find ourselves with no means of rationalizing the our existence either in conjunction with AI or in terms of supplanting AI.

Now is the time for us to establish the rationale for our existence before the problem becomes beyond our ability to address the issue.  

160320: Sundays: Finding one's true essence

One can find one's true essence. The journey of self discovery begins with the process of quieting the physical egos smothering one's true self.

160319: Saturdays: Something To Think About

If God, Brahma, The Creator of the universe is omnipresent, where else could the universe be but INSIDE God, Brahma, The Creator of the universe?

Fridays: Ancient Texts - What we've been told - epitomized by religion: One of three tools humanity has at its disposal to understand the Whole of Reality.

Know that both nature
and man's spirit have no beginning
that quality and changes
have their origin in nature.
The Bhagavade-Gita
The Thirteenth Teaching, verse 19

Nature: The potential out of which the manifest evolves

So it is the man's spirit, not man's physical body, is identified as of the same essence as the Creator of the manifested, the physical universe and as such the 'potential' being divine so to is man's spirit which imbeds itself within the physical machine. Such a concept applies to all individuals.

The consensus of advocates of the big bang theory is that the explosion generating our physical universe originated from a primal atom. 

The questions become: From where did this primal atom come and in what type of existence was the primal atom nestled?

It is only panentheism which has rational answers to these two questions, namely: The primal atom was created by its creator or in short, the primal atom was generated by the Creator of the physical universe.

As to what it was the primal atom was nestled before it exploded: The primal atom was nestled within its creator.
