Essay Abstract

This essay first considers how some systems may take on the appearance of acting with aim and intent, but actually progress at the mercy of their environments and surroundings. From this, it suggests that the only natural systems that truly act with aim and intent are living systems. It then shows how living systems are born out of the evolving complexity of particles, which is driven by phenomena expressed as mathematical laws. Consequently, it appears that mathematical laws give rise to aims and intentions by facilitating complexity.

Dear William L Stubbs,

Please excuse me for I have no intention of disparaging in any way any part of your essay.

I merely wish to point out that "Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler." Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955) Physicist & Nobel Laureate.

Only nature could produce a reality so simple, a single cell amoeba could deal with it.

The real Universe must consist only of one unified visible infinite physical surface occurring in one infinite dimension, that am always illuminated by infinite non-surface light.

A more detailed explanation of natural reality can be found in my essay, SCORE ONE FOR SIMPLICITY. I do hope that you will read my essay and perhaps comment on its merit.

Nice essay Stubbs,

Your ideas and thinking are excellent for eg.,

1. It seems we assign aim and intent to systems or situations that are incognizant and thoughtless in order to better understand and cope with them. It is easier to deal with an entity that possesses intent, than with something viewed to be acting indiscriminately

2. Consequently, the fundamental laws are derivatives of the higher behavior and naturally integrate up to it. These situations may suggest that the lower laws roll up to some kind of cognizance that drives the system to the observed end. However, the end is completely deterministic. The laws generated no intent, etc..

.............................. At this point I want you to ask you to please have a look at my essay, where ...............reproduction of Galaxies in the Universe is described. Dynamic Universe Model is another mathematical model for Universe. Its mathematics show that the movement of masses will be having a purpose or goal, Different Galaxies will be born and die (quench) etc...just have a look at my essay... "Distances, Locations, Ages and Reproduction of Galaxies in our Dynamic Universe" where UGF (Universal Gravitational force) acting on each and every mass, will create a direction and purpose of movement.....

I think intension is inherited from Universe itself to all Biological systems

For your information Dynamic Universe model is totally based on experimental results. Here in Dynamic Universe Model Space is Space and time is time in cosmology level or in any level. In the classical general relativity, space and time are convertible in to each other.

Many papers and books on Dynamic Universe Model were published by the author on unsolved problems of present day Physics, for example 'Absolute Rest frame of reference is not necessary' (1994) , 'Multiple bending of light ray can create many images for one Galaxy: in our dynamic universe', About "SITA" simulations, 'Missing mass in Galaxy is NOT required', "New mathematics tensors without Differential and Integral equations", "Information, Reality and Relics of Cosmic Microwave Background", "Dynamic Universe Model explains the Discrepancies of Very-Long-Baseline Interferometry Observations.", in 2015 'Explaining Formation of Astronomical Jets Using Dynamic Universe Model, 'Explaining Pioneer anomaly', 'Explaining Near luminal velocities in Astronomical jets', 'Observation of super luminal neutrinos', 'Process of quenching in Galaxies due to formation of hole at the center of Galaxy, as its central densemass dries up', "Dynamic Universe Model Predicts the Trajectory of New Horizons Satellite Going to Pluto" etc., are some more papers from the Dynamic Universe model. Four Books also were published. Book1 shows Dynamic Universe Model is singularity free and body to collision free, Book 2, and Book 3 are explanation of equations of Dynamic Universe model. Book 4 deals about prediction and finding of Blue shifted Galaxies in the universe.

With axioms like... No Isotropy; No Homogeneity; No Space-time continuum; Non-uniform density of matter(Universe is lumpy); No singularities; No collisions between bodies; No Blackholes; No warm holes; No Bigbang; No repulsion between distant Galaxies; Non-empty Universe; No imaginary or negative time axis; No imaginary X, Y, Z axes; No differential and Integral Equations mathematically; No General Relativity and Model does not reduce to General Relativity on any condition; No Creation of matter like Bigbang or steady-state models; No many mini Bigbangs; No Missing Mass; No Dark matter; No Dark energy; No Bigbang generated CMB detected; No Multi-verses etc.

Many predictions of Dynamic Universe Model came true, like Blue shifted Galaxies and no dark matter. Dynamic Universe Model gave many results otherwise difficult to explain

Have a look at my essay on Dynamic Universe Model and its blog also where all my books and papers are available for free downloading...

William,

Your essay seem to have had few reads yet I found it interesting to the point of fascinating, and biologically informative. I also agree fundamentally with a complex and 'layered' causal system able to reproduce what we call 'intent'. I think its low placing is quite unwarranted so will help.

You didn't seem to mention or derive mutation. I've suggested an even lower scale derivation and identified a dynamic geometrical mechanism also reproducing QM's predictions classically! (I also suggest why this may be seen as unacceptable to current doctrine).

I hope you may read mine and comment at least on the suggested fundamentally random mutation derivation at the quantum scale.

Best of luck in the contest.

Peter

    Peter,

    Thank you for reading my essay and giving it a fair rating. I am an unknown in these circles, and this, along with a relatively late submittal, appears to have rendered my essay lost in the crowd.

    You are correct in your observation that I did not address mutation. As you can see from my bio, my background is in nuclear physics. While I also have a fair amount of experience in chemistry, I had to learn the cell biology I discussed in my essay during January and February to produce the essay by early March. I am sure the basic nature of the discussion made my novice at this obvious to anyone with a background in the subject. Nevertheless, in seeing the pattern of evolving complexity in the realms I am familiar with, I naturally anticipated the trend continued up through the inception of living systems. Consequently, I did what I could in the time I had available to research the subject and formulate a line of thought to support my extrapolation. As a result, even though I suspect that mutations further advance the evolution of complexity I discussed, I did not have time to explore how or why they did so.

    I have already pulled your essay and began reading it, and by that, I mean I have read it once to get the feel of it, and am now reading it again to hear what you are really saying. I agree wholeheartedly with your statement that flawed assumptions have led to illogical mathematical analysis and theory. Also, that when we encounter situations that are new and unfamiliar to us, we tend to rely on best-fit explanations that, when all the dust settles, may not apply to the situations, at all. I believe that there are some severely misguided subatomic physics theories and models prevailing because of this. I may actually be doing this in my essay when I extrapolate complexity born out of physical laws to lead eventually to living systems, it is so easy to do.

    At any rate, I will finish reading your essay, rate it, and leave a comment, shortly.

    Thanks again for the read,

    William.

    Hi William,

    Thanks for your great ontological essay. I tend to agree with the logic you give to the mathematical block/problematic we have, in understanding the language of how particles convert into a cell of one kind or another.

    You say at your conclusion "The evolution from elementary particles to DNA appears to be one of the ways that mindless mathematical laws give rise to aims and intentions."

    In my essay I show that We have a substrata of natural language of maintaining the unique self-organization, the phenomenon, from the sub particle (waive) to life forms and other forms like energy=mater, from quarks (1 in the power of -24 has been proved) to stars and galaxies and within the nano level of 1 in the power of -34 (hasn't been proved). All this in a universe of finite phenomenon to endless phenomena.

    In my essay I show first, the way we ratifying continuously our concreteness as self-organization although we change all the time while keeping our perception as unique self. As Socrates, as william etc. And second, I show that it is all in the qualities of the movement attributes. It is all ontological and subjective and that is its/our eminent beauty.

    I wonder about your feedback on my essay: "we are together, therefore I am", and maybe you will find a way to define in a mathematical way, a model for the language of the Attributes of the Movement-phenomenon.

    With high expectation

    Dear Sirs!

    Physics of Descartes, which existed prior to the physics of Newton returned as the New Cartesian Physic and promises to be a theory of everything. To tell you this good news I use «spam».

    New Cartesian Physic based on the identity of space and matter. It showed that the formula of mass-energy equivalence comes from the pressure of the Universe, the flow of force which on the corpuscle is equal to the product of Planck's constant to the speed of light.

    New Cartesian Physic has great potential for understanding the world. To show it, I ventured to give "materialistic explanations of the paranormal and supernatural" is the title of my essay.

    Visit my essay, you will find there the New Cartesian Physic and make a short entry: "I believe that space is a matter" I will answer you in return. Can put me 1.

    Sincerely,

    Dizhechko Boris

    Dear Mr. Stubbs

    I like your essay. For me, specifically Figure 1 is interesting.

    You have taken a journey up the road of complexity from protons to DNA.

    I have taken a journey up the road of universe to proton. Please try to understand my essay.

    Any idea what is the value of gravity of the proton? The rating is 10.

    Regards,

    Branko
