Mans Ultimate Purpose

[Bill Wiltrack]

.







It's a little tricky...You have to focus on each word.


The title of this thread is: Mans Ultimate Purpose. That's important.


I recognize that we ALL breathe, we ALL eat, we ALL drink, we ALL have sex, we ALL move & we ALL have bowel movements.


I contest, that Mans Ultimate Purpose is observation.

Self-observation may be the highest form of observation.


A type of observation that will bring moments of objective consciousness.



A little philosophical but that is the perception that I have observed in my own life.

Why? Especially since it assumes there is an 'Ultimate Purpose'.

I recognize that we ALL breathe, we ALL eat, we ALL drink, we ALL have sex, we ALL move & we ALL have bowel movements.

Well, even the Queen shits as they say but not all have sex.

I contest, that Mans Ultimate Purpose is observation.

But offer no actually reason why you think this.

Self-observation may be the highest form of observation.

Or just navel-gazing.

A type of observation that will bring moments of objective consciousness.

Whats 'objective consciousness' to a subjective consciousness? Are you saying that this observation is actually the observation of the external world, a la the scientists?

A little philosophical but that is the perception that I have observed in my own life.

Not really philosophical at all until you actual explain what you mean by this 'objective consciousness'.

I'm unable to be more specific.


I do realize that if you have not experienced higher consciousness you cannot even begin to understand the concept.








Principle of charity

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


In philosophy and rhetoric, the principle of charity requires interpreting a speaker's statements to be rational and, in the case of any argument, considering its best, strongest possible interpretation. In its narrowest sense, the goal of this methodological principle is to avoid attributing irrationality, logical fallacies or falsehoods to the others' statements, when a coherent, rational interpretation of the statements is available. According to Simon Blackburn "it constrains the interpreter to maximize the truth or rationality in the subject's sayings."

You should read and understand this as it'd save you a lot of trouble with your thoughts.

How's that going with you so far?

I'm LOVING IT.


I work each day to expand my consciousness.



I actually LOVE the results.



I thank you for asking and I appreciate you adding to this thread.

This is what I was asking you, what are they?

It's a state of being.


It's incredible.


I am really pleasantly surprised. At my age, after a lifetime of dedication and work, I still have an aspect of what I call, real philosophy, that I am able to reach for & explore.



Philosophically, the last third of ones life can be quite exciting.

It's a state of being.

For example?

It's incredible.

So you say.

I am really pleasantly surprised. At my age, after a lifetime of dedication and work, I still have an aspect of what I call, real philosophy, that I am able to reach for & explore.

Good for you.

Philosophically, the last third of ones life can be quite exciting.[/size]

True and appears, in my case, to involve working until ones death. I'm very excited I have this opportunity.

I appreciate your support.



And as I have stated before, I appreciate you looking to me for relevant and important philosophical questions.



The definition of a state of being cannot be easily shared. An individual has to experience it. It's a relationship within ones self and at the same time, for me, it is a relationship to ones immediate surroundings at the same time.


Respectfully, based upon past conversations, sadly I don't think you are able to easily understand different states of being.

I appreciate your support.

Where?

And as I have stated before, I appreciate you looking to me for relevant and important philosophical questions.

Still delusional I see.

The definition of a state of being cannot be easily shared. An individual has to experience it. It's a relationship within ones self and at the same time, for me, it is a relationship to ones immediate surroundings at the same time.

Thats called being self-conscious in philosophy.

Respectfully, based upon past conversations, sadly I don't think you are able to easily understand different states of being.

Just goes to show what you know.

Do you work-out?

In what sense?

[Tesla]

I believe the knowledge of this day does not have the power to answer this question. We can suppose, or hope, or believe science has discovered it, but the truth lies in examination of potentials. No one knows.

But, the more pertinent question that we can answer together is the ultimate purpose of species, because we are choosing it. And given what’s happening globally, I believe we need a species agreement on what our goal should be, and that what it appears to be right now, is definitely not what we want it to be.

When I comes down to it, when it's all said and done, mans ultimate purpose is to observe.



In the end we are a complex interchange of hydrogen. Nothing more.


There is an old saying; if you leave hydrogen alone long enough it will eventually develop language and then, eventually hydrogen will observe itself.



We watch, as hydrogen passes through us; hydrogen.





.

yes lets just observe as we destroy our planet by deforestation, air, sea land and fresh water pollution, unleashing, deadly biologically engineered diseases, nuclear, negligence and pollution topped of by a systematic destruction of human rights through American and Israeli backed terrorist nations to plant puppet governments around the world.
lets just observe our world as it self destructs ....
