PHYSICS VERSUS LEVANTINE-ORIENTAL MUMBO-JUMBO | 2008-01-12
I don't know how my mind works, and frankly I'm not sure I want to. But it turns out that what I said in the second one down, your responses, and the last one all come to perfect fit.
Mantra Thinking leads right on.
My little exploration into solid state physics and the nature of the self elicited a group of responses relating to that theory IN ITSELF and the mumbo-jumbo being generated to cover the fact that high-speed physics needs some new directions Orientals can't develop, because observations are not backing it up.
It needs Nordics not wrapped up in Political Correctness, not more gypsies.
But I also wrote an article right after that about how this kind of thinking, Faustian thinking always ends up being PRACTICAL. Nothing looks more impractical than the list of basic research projects financed by the NSF. A list if the titles is sent to Capitol Hill each week and Senator Proxmire made hay by repeating these silly-sounding titles as wastes of taxpayer money that could be spent on welfare, etc.
Proxmire was a liberal, but the mush-minded respectable conservatives WORSHIPPED him. Many a science article pointed out, with examples, that Proxmire had a talent for attacking the most valuable research done. Some of which led to discoveries that saved his constituents' lives. But you can't expect the Buckleys to understand THAT.
If we are to reach the stars, which only whites can do, we will need to change the Buck Rogers vision. We will have to get out of light-speed-limited Einsteinian physics. We have already discovered that advances in communications and automation have made the Buck Rogers bit dated. We can send our eyes and ears where our bodies are a burden.
But we are not interested in sending our red corpuscles out. The idea is to send OURSELVES out, our SELVES. Our arms are no more part of our SELVES than the spacesuit it rides in.
Other Great Civilizations degenerate into mumbo-jumbo, so it's easy to think that anything we can't immediately understand is not worth understanding. That's the Proxmire-Buckley approach. But we are NOT just another Great Civilization. We are WHITE.
Blacks degenerate, Orientals stagnate, whites INNOVATE. Only we can go to the stars.
