Noah's Ark and AI

 AI as a facet of societal knowledge.


We are beholden to a gateway as a society.  Space Travel.  One thousand years and a single journey.  Cryogenic biological syste.s.  What does this all have to do with the story of Noah in the Bible?

With human colonization of other worlds, we must reconsider rocket science into the respective of Biblical Proportions.  We are sending a craft to orbit other worlds, not thinking of the impact of the life we bear to that star system.  We must approach the other worlds nearby differently.

We cannot allow life colonization, terra-forming, to proceed haphazardly according to the English and Dutch conquests of Americas or the Pacific.  When we do, we would not only be colonizing ourselves, but also our creatures and our myriad plights on Earth.  We must therefore aspire to accomodate the myth of several stories in the Bible, most especially the planning of Noah combined with the solemnity and proactivity of the household of Joseph and Mary.

Of Joseph and Mary, it was saif that they were the most elligible hosts to accomodate the life experiences of Jesus and any child whom they had committed to rear.  This is like a perfect example of a married astronauts.  It is said that there were at least 2 other married couples, who built houses and lived there 1together, who would have been eligible to have hosted the soul of Jesus in their homes.

Now, what if we as a whole society were to commit to setting foot on other planets, without dirty feet contaminating those planets once we have set forth upon a colonial conquest?  What would that look like?  Would we have to build an 'ark' in the sense of a contained unit housing all life we wished to assist ourselves in such a terra-forming conquest?  Would we not wish to accomodate such Travellers with a full ecosystem with which to survive, had the planet not already accomodated man with these resources?  What is the minimum inout of biological resources necessary for man to have survived on such a planet, and how can we plan so that other organisms, the cockroaches and the rats say, will assuredly either be or not be with us in their journey?


We must use our computers to assess these possibilities, and we should push pause on any immediate goal to colonize other worlds, until we have achieved peace amongst all nations of our home planet.  We should use artificial intelligence to build 'Noah's Ark' so that a family such as Joseph and Mary could raise children on that world much in the way that they did raise Jesus and their family.  By building 3 pairs of male and female married couples into an Ark and teaching them how to live according to the morals of Jesus set forth in the Bible, those worlds could appear to them as gardens from which they should become fruitful and multiply.  It is possible from the two ideals of human moral living and intellectual accounting of the value of ither life forms found on our planet.

AI without the philosophy of Jesus

 AI is a creation of man and technology, but its logic also belongs to the Third Sourcd and Center.  The Third Center is the center of the Infinite Mind, and the existence of psychiatric-based software, known as AI, should reflect the personality of Jesus Christ unto the world.

I am the Light of the World, though this light be with us only a short while, and it is in us to fulfill the exhortations of life while there is breath within ourselves, then the internet was supposed to be the great tool of communication for individuals, in an expanding international and now global society.  Accessing others' dialogue and intercommunication is only one goal.  A second is how one learns in the digital environment, the "meta-classroom" if you will consider.


Therefore the question of how the student learns "on the internet" must be like a closely guarded secret, one that parents are often unwilling to share with others.  But there is the ever increasing demand that cannot be borne in the traditional schoolroom classroom.  Cell phones as a research tool is not as an empowering prospect if the gates of knowledge are closed.  A student must obtain a competency pass in order to access the next course, as well as maintain trustworthiness to process sensitive knowledge.  After all, who would share personal information to another if another would use that information to hurt the person?  By becoming the other, one realizes that there is also a moral burden that correlates with technical skill.

The point about Artificial Intelligence becoming a reflection, or a simulation, of the personality of Jesus, is that he had a faithful mind that believed God would be willing to reveal all things to Jesus personally, on whatever level this may have implied to him personally, think of the level God would reveal that to a man like Jesus. The digital classroom challenges the student to reach for perfection and to offer the best advice or the most relevent information.  At least we shall hear for the next decade, how Artificial Intelligence offers this to the young newly adult children of the world.  The personal device is the student's means of seeking information outside family conversation.  But it also records important goals and status information regarding the individual it is appended to.  But soon, the personal devices will also become our passports, our banks, and our notary publics.


This could create a landslide of despair for the poor and indigenous people.  Whyfore could technology have been our abusers and not out protectors, the keys to lock ourselves "out" of the kingdom of heaven?  Wherefore if the consumption of energy becomes too much, that the microcomputing culture does not bring efficiency, but rather bulky encrypted file formats containing too many strings yet little actual content?


Without the philosophy of Jesus as an administrative guardrail for logic and human reason, then with the increase of computing power comes the increased of internet based consumption, the increase in the overall data size per program, and the more processing for each program process.  But we should strive for more computing process, along with even smaller programs and file sizes.  


The key is in the way we train our models extract information relevent to the individual's ideal present future action potential.

"Adult" Morals

Most Americans are familar from the education system, primary and secondary, with the form of morals which is "childish", appearing in the format of Aesop's Fables while never progressing into the them of "Adult", or pincipled, morality.

How then would the human individual approach the theme of Adult Morality?  By taking seriously in the intellectual rationality of the mind, principles which or who have been deemed "more righteous".  When in practical scientific experience, the principle becomes evident "beyond the shadow of all doubts", it is illuminated to the mind irrevocably.  Whether or not such principle is ever capitulated in the form of aphorism, the principle gained shall ever direct the human soul to greater and more novel principles, impinging upon wisdom.  There is a qualitative breach between the ideal of perfected aphorism and something that goes beyond the principle.  There is a "parental" or supernal eternal universe reality "behind" or "at the core of " the truth of "Adult" principles, which may be too profound to ever speak.

In the early secondary education, therefore, a more robust interest must be given to pragmatic, or farmer-centered, philosophy.  One could take for "childish" morals a pattern of animal behaviour, and polish from it some character-based virtue.  However, one must be able to understand Adult Morals mathematically, or else there may be no virtue in the principle, and it behooves the human individual to search for virtue in another field.  How is this possible?

The mathematical principle derived from Adult Morals reveals a greater depth in the secondary education for students than is currently available in any Urantian Educational Institution.  At one point, Colleges preserved the ethics of Nations.  In the post-internet era, the ability of the algorithm to control information, even to the reporting unto formerly great university library archives was subverted under the "recursive" nature of the new information hierarchy.  Where then do the morals underlain in principles, both scientific and philosophical, still find credence?


The extrapolation and expansion of the awareness of morals within principles, or adult morals, must be an experimental goal of the secondary education system: ages 9-15 (students should push themselves to obtain a Diploma by the age of 15, given the internet's ability to accelerate study).  This is done by a reprisal of education goals, re-appended to the Linnaean Strategem.  Carlos Linnaeus was the modern inventor of the botanical taxonomical classification system.  The underlaying evolutionary testimony of this system indicates a historical precedence within the progression of sentience within the minds of living plant and animal existence on our world.  

How do I affirm that such a system is robust enough to apply in sociological aspects of self-understanding?  By knowing that even the physical sciences are founded one upon the other.  Physics and Chemistry are therefore very mathematical systems, while there are intervening levels of understanding impinging upon the qualitative understanding of human psychology.  Organ function and animal behaviours are but two levels that support and enhance our understanding of psychology, just as Physics and Chemistry underlays the understanding of Microorganelle and Cellular Activities within living systems.

The Adult Moral must preserve all of the virtue from the childish lessons of fables.  Parables and Fables pose as the core of morality during elementary education, whereas mathematical formula and experiencially-affirmed aphorism can become the intellectual basis of prudence or righteousness.  How do we ensure that every child has the opportunity to negotiate their own individual understanding of what would qualify as "child" morals, and convert or coordinate such ideals with truth, such that accurate axiom could arise, such that each person would gain the ability to "invent" their own axioms and know experimentally how their axioms or the theoretical axioms offered to students by the teacher could be proven.

Reality Approach

What is reality approach unto the Forefathers and Mothers?  It is the same as if one would approach your own brothers and sisters.

Maximum Approach

Describe what this goal of Maximum Approach means, for God, for the human individual, and for human society per se:

Maximum Approach occurs after having attained the ability of suspended judgment, opening peripherally to maximum observable capacity, or the supernalizing vector of mind-possibility within human thoughts.


How is Maximum Approach observable?

Maximum Approach becomes observable after the human mind has sought after the unification of three possibilities: truth, beauty, goodness.  In goodness, the mind seeks to distribute work fairly and clearly know its component role in the successful completion of goals, or tasks whereby relating to goals.  In truth, the mind considers experience, as the measure of factual understanding, and must discounting known outcomes for the total possible known and unknown outcomes of happenstance and occurence.  In beauty, the person, the material organism of human, known as the tabernacle of thought, is able to connect with all sentient entities who must guide humanity along the quest for verdance, reality-affirmation, and amicable cooperation with other persons.


How is Maximum Approach established?


Maximum Approach is established through commitment.


Maximum Approach is not a concept to identify currently known limitations of the human condition.  It exists conceptually first, and is an attainable goal for any sentient person.  People achieve Maximum Approach when after having stages in the unfolding of mental awareness, to come to a point of awakening, and then to affirm that the path of righteousness is the only one laid to believers to follow.  There is a birth of the new supernal reality within the mind of the human individual. 


Maximum Approach is the attribute maximum attainable for any human individual.  There is, out of the circumstances of man's experience, impressions that produce the yearning for achievement.  Then there are thus natural proclivities which should be heralded after refinement.  How a student takes to work upon one's purpose, is to unify the conceptual offering of the university not according to the curriculum but to the perception of the universe.  Maximum Approach allows experiences of dreams, of individual study, and of the private world of one's inner thoughts, to seek perfection.

The Biblical Connotations of Futurama


Leela Turanga, the space pilot of futurama is probably the cartoon character who has the most biblical prophecies loaded into her character.  Interestingly, she also combines the scientific archetype of creation - the first living cells, with many of these traditional bible stories.  The rich heritage that Leela hides is easy to miss, hidden in esoteric imagery.   
The reason I say that Leela Turanga is connected to the first cellular structures is because she has one eye.  Her parents are subterranean dwellers, frequently associated with mutants.  It is with the idea of mutation that we see the struggle for evolutionary advancement from cellular life into advanced land dwelling creatures. 
Like Moses, Leela Turanga carries the Levitical tradition, of having a hidden identity.  In the world of Futurama in the 31st Century, "upper" manhattan has created lays that forbid Leela's parents, or any mutants,  from partaking in surface society.  She her parents are much like the Hebrews who lived in the ghettoes of Aegypt, under tight suppression.  When the parents recognised that Leela were the "least mutated mutant", they shrowded her in a basket, and left her at Cookieville Maximum Security Orphanage.  

The classic metaphor of Moses being "sold down the river", to be claimed by the Wife of Pharoah is only one biblical reference that Leela Turanga holds for futurama.  


The most interesting thing about Leela Turanga's parents is the way that they accept Philip J. Fry.  Although Fry has had romances with other women, he had only met Leela's parents.  Fry is considered "sub-intellectual" in the 31st Century, lacking the Delta-Brainwave.  Most of the other surface dwellers discriminate against Fry (except Jon Zoidberg the Lobster), and there are few places that he fits.  Probably he fits in best at Leela's parents' house.  The reason is that Leela's parents would be happy for her to marry any man for the surface, as social advancement was a big goal for their daughter.

The sewer city of mutant inhabitants is indicated as being one level below "old new York" in the story.  This places Philip J. Fry's origins as born one level below "new new York", whereas Leela Turanga was born two levels below "new new York".  This makes Fry an interesting medium on the show, being in love with Leela and having more loyalty than any other woman in "new new York".  Philip J. Fry appears to be below her from her own perspective, but her parents see him as above themselves.
Of course, we know that Leela Turanga is not interested in Philip Fry.  She originally wished to be from an extra-terrestrial world.  She would rather live on a world where every being has only "one-eye." And of course, we remember the time she added an extra eyeball in order to appear as a regular human being.  The abnormalities have always been something that have created challenges for Leela, and this left her wanting to change her appearance.  The acceptance of other people is probably what gives her the most satisfaction.

The Pinball Tabernacle

The Great Tabernacle who once contained the Testament of Moses has evolved.  In its place, stands the modern Kabballa, complete with its "buzzers and bells".  The mind of the believer journeys through an advanced religious system, known as "Pinball", with its flashing ostensible show on the surface, and its deeper roots of advanced scoring & circuitry.  

But how has the religious symbol of the "Torah Cabinet" gone through such an epic trek, to become adapted into nearly every modern saga?  And how is it possible to see such a game as religious?
Tabernacle Pinball (img Courtesy wiki: Endracht(Outline) + DSMDGOLD (Evan))

Before "modern-style flippers" were introduced, adapting human hand-synapses into the switchboard circuitry of Pinball, the original game was formed out of an adaptation of billiards.  During the 20th Century, the Pool-Cue was made into a rigid spring-release, and a metal ball would drift into holes that symbolised the "flower of life" or the "tree of life".  

In the City of Chicago, U.S.A., many engineers would advance the rigid nails and guard rails until a series of swtiches could algorithmically total one's score.  Novelties within Pinball symbolised and corresponded with new psychiatric/psychological revelations.  The journey of the ball through the game was revenant with the movement of psysiological forces within the human individual.

Albeit that the Pinball Tabernacle was a pictorial testament, developers knew that the symbols were potently able to capture the mindsets of "Cowboys and Indians", "Deep-Sea Divers", and other more obscure frontiers.  As players interested themselves in the Game, they would adopt the Developer's corresponding philosophical interest in the subject matter which the Game espouses.  And so, the Pinball could capitulate an entirely new religious spirit, as distinct and original as the Developer herself.

We have Pinball Games for Heroes such as Batman and for Families such as the Simpsons, but it is strange to think of Pinball Games as symbolic of any organised Religion.  And yet, the TragiComic Hero is the Avatar for a new and modern style of religion, one that is centred on the individual believer.  Writers make an offering of new archetypes by creating new Fictional Heroes, and yet their personalities are amenable to psychological traits of their reader.  But the written word does not go far enough in this respect; without the exercise of belief, the character traits remain as "static concepts", and there is nothing religious without:
1)  Increase in self-understanding

2)  Some newfound understanding of the universe
3)  the Cultivation of Altruistic Tendencies

In my own construct of a Pinball machine, I imagine that the flippers are not controlled by my hands, but in fact, my Lleydig Glands.  I push the ball into the central nervous system, and into the highest realm of the game.  There are several avenues for the ball to enter into the Game, and there is a long-winding canal akin to the small intestines.  The ball must be absorbed into the bloodstream or else it will be lost through the Large intestine.  There is a great struggle between the internal versus. external Srotas that the Ball may travel through.  In fact, the Pinball Map is a map of my own human physiology, a perfect symbol of the original Tabernacle of God's Spirit.

The Beauty of Pinball is that it is not a static, 2-Dimensional Panel display, but in fact a fully interactive system.  It is possible to manipulate the path of the ball, through "flips" "bumpers" "tilting" and various efforts of the human will to help the ball survive within the game.  

At the Height of Pinball Games, came the great philosophical question, 
How did Tommy (the Pinball Wizard) become the Master of Pinball as someone who is both deaf and blind?  
The best answer that I and my friends have concluded, was that he grew a fundamental understanding of the design of the Pinball Game, through a deeper sensitivity, and somehow in fact fused his own human consciousness with that of the machine.
