Pathos

"One-liners" .. (or close enough to it..)
'1997'

"We enable possibilities by actively exploring them." "We create opportunities by exploring possibilities." "Each person is a resource for the human community." "Each mind harbors ongoing explorations, connections, waiting to be shared with companion minds.   Nuances and flavors and unappreciated spontaneity developed in one person or group of persons, opening up panoramas and channels in others.  Now, learning the skills of sharing those recognitions, those internal discoveries, becomes the challenge and goal of humanity. Respect for source. Anticipation of benefit. Belief in innate skills. Trust in the clarity of thought and in depth of feelings. Compassion forged with Competence. Skill alone is not enough to create the future. Vision and desire and sense-of-place are needed too. " "We cannot predict the chemistry, biology or environment in which new wisdom or social advancements reside, so we must protect and nurture and enable as many Sentients as possible ... each has a vision of experience to share with the rest." "We are terra-forming human insight, remolding social polity." "There must be a region for information to "exist in".  Metaphorically, that "region" is all-possible-stochastic-potentials. Induction can then be perceived as exploration of "possibilities" - which already "exist" even if unactualized - rather than perpetually creating that which never existed.              The problem is to accept that Knowledge and information "exist" even if it is / they are not within any particular sphere of "known knowledge".              This is a strong post-Godel perspective." "'Frontiers' may have once been walls meant to isolate and protect. They are in a better sense the meeting place across which "sharings" are possible." "Evolution, adaptation -  is the synchronization of many functions. Success is required on all functional levels at the same time.   "Fitness" is a plurality of interacting inter- dependent systems.    There has to be functional adequecy on all of those levels for any holistic organism or system to survive."
