At any given moment we construct our own Personal Reality based on our previous experiences, on our current relationships (of any kind), on our private ‘psychology’ and our projections onto our surroundings, partners, children, colleagues etc. We construct a Love & Happiness Browser linking into an enjoyable Future building pages from the Probability Spread constructed on the aforementioned parameters. We hope that our time-casted dreams will materialize. We hope.

However, sometimes the Browser goes astray… sometimes the Future pages diplayes unwanted content. Unhappiness, defeat, ruin, discontent… in one or more of the subparts of the Physical, Mental or Emotional dimensions. We identify ourselves with faliure…. and we think that our interpretation of Reality is the Reality itself. It is not.

Most Unhappiness in the Western World derives from the ‘Comparison Game’ and from time-leaping into either an idylised Past or an unrealistic forecasted Future.  We forget again and again to experience and use our Powers in the Single and Only Timepoint we really own and possess: The Moment of NOW !

I think we can increase our Happiness NOW by being flexible towards the Future, to be open to new Interpretations, to new habits, to new learnings and to the invaribale fact that everything is Changing. So… always try to understand and finetune your Future Browser. The Probability Field for Your Future is subject to change any given moment. Life may work against you, Life may work with you. You must work too !

The Art is to maintain control over the mouse and click on the Furture pages that truly reflect YOU and that support the continual human drive for fulfilling real needs, for personal development – and Love. Identify your own virtues, give your life a meaning, set goals ! Browse !

Did you click a Page you didn’t like ? Click again ! Do not think that the Probability Field is limited…. it is your own thoughts that are ! Dreamcast again ! Fight !

Have you ever seen the move “The Usual Suspects” ? If not, I think you should before you read on.

At the end on the movie we discover – to our amazement – that probably everything in the movie plot was a lie ! It never happened ! A unique closure of a thrilling and very well-told story !

Hmmm… what if life itself works like that ? We think we experience this or that… but later… the same experiences take on quiete another meaning or flavor. Hard times make us strong and do perhaps not seem so bad as time passes by. Good times may ‘change’ to nightmares … especially in the cases where you realize that other people held you as a fool. Held you as Kaizer Soze. That is truly demoralizing and heart-breaking !

Is there a morale ? Yes ! Have the courage to live your life by the truth and express your own values… so your surroundings does not meet… Kaizer Soze !

Don’t please anybody but yourself – that will please everybody !

So, Science tells us the truth ? Ok. Here comes the short version of ‘Life’.

At some point in time, Carbon, Nitrogen and Hydrogen begins to cluster together in the thermodynamically favored structures called Nucleotides… and due to a subtle twist in the cosmic radiance, L-amino acids are formed primarilly (not D-amino acids). In combination and again by chance, life evolves around these very structures, the Nucelotides and the Proteins. Ok, throw in a few Carbohydrates and other stuff as well… all in all, we have the one-celled life organisms.

Even here, what happens ? WAR ! In order to survive, the organisms begin a chemical warfare first by simple chemical compounds. Later, the cells begin to differentiate (eg. welcome to the mitochondrians) and later again the organisms begin to develop specialized organs (welcome, penis 😉 ). All this to protect the survival of the initial microorganisms. Yes, taken to it’s ultimate argument…. and to cut a few steps in the story of evolution … the scientifical ‘fact’ is that we humans live only to carry futher the content of our microbiologocal flora in our intestines ! Think about that the next time you sit on the toilet. And forget about your career, sport interests and other ‘human interests and feelings’… according to science, they are not of interest or any meaning at all ! At least not in the quest of evolution.

So… do you really want to face and interprete your life according to Science only ?

I don’t ! 

Being a programmer is fun ! Many things are based on logic, on knowledge of a certain scoped knowledge-material… and then the task is to be creative and find solutions to stated, explicit requirements. Pretty easy, basically, at least after the many hours of studying and learning are over.

Being a Philosopher stinks 😉 You may think and write stuff your whole life… and you may never find out if it was worth a damned penny at all. So why – WHY – at all care to think or contemplate about anything ‘deep’ during your lifetime ? No, no, no… go for the money, fame and sex … and enjoy the ride all the way to the graveyard, right ? Perhaps.

Well…maybe not. Maybe we have in our nature as Human Beings to become philosophical about life and the meaning of it at some point in our lives. So… good news.. for your lazy guys out there, I have created a small piece of vb.net programming that will spare your some efforts. Go on, give it a read and a tought.

Dim GodExists As Boolean
Dim ScienceIsTrue As Boolean
Dim PhilosophicalHeadline As String
Dim Conclusion as String

If GodExists = True and ScienceIsTrue = True Then
 PhilosophicalHeadline = “God exists ! All questions or metaphysical considerations are irrelevant if God exists. Period !”
 Conclusion = “God Exists and let’s Mankind play around with Science. However, God may or may not determine (at any point in Time) to ‘make new decisions’, ultimately underpinning the true permanent consequences of the Natural Laws as we know them.”

Elseif GodExists = True and ScienceIsTrue = False Then
 PhilosophicalHeadline = “God exists ! All questions or metaphysical considerations are irrelevant if God exists. Period !”
 Conclusion = “God Exists and Mankind has fooled itself in the persuit of Science. We know truly Nothing at all (even though we think we do).”

Elseif GodExists = False and ScienceIsTrue = False Then
 PhilosophicalHeadline = “God (or the equivalent) does not exist. Only matter counts in the Universe. However, Science is also not what we think…”
 Conclusion = “God does not exist and Science is a fallacy too. We think we know stuff, but we don’t… and we have no afterlife or heaven to rest in. We are really F***ed !”

Elseif GodExists = False and ScienceIsTrue = True Then
 PhilosophicalHeadline = “God (or the equivalent) does not exist. Only matter counts in the Universe. Science is giving us the correct perception of the Universe.”
 Conclusion = “God does not exist, but Science accounts for the matter and Natural Laws of the Universe, the Biology, the Chemistry and so forth.”
End If

Surely, in the Europe the last conslusion seems to be the most popular. However, I think that all philosophical discussions begin with the question ‘Does God exist ?”. 90 % of the Earth’s population believe he does. What do you think ?
