A New Paradigm

Potentialism Theory - Potential Drives the Cosmic Order - is unique, original and all-embracing.

The formula/theory apparently works across both depth and breadth - universally.
In depth the proposition apparently seamlessly works from macro through micro levels. In breadth, the proposition apparently seamlessly works across the billions of years of known cosmic history;

As well, the theory works elegantly with Q4P (Quest for Potential∞) as the proposed catalyst of the Big Bang itself. Thus, the plot thickens.

The formulation has 100+ articles and 100+ distinguished testimonials to its credit. A Course Text at top universities around the globe, the fully-integrated theory provides a simultaneous solution to a cluster of hitherto intractable bedrock issues.

Since Summa I was published (by Ktav) in 1988, the theory has sent shock waves through the global cosmology and metaphysics establishments. These establishments are entrenched and to a great extent militantly wedded to their (theory of no-theory) Randomness for well-over 150 years.

Inertia? Group-Think? Go along to get along? No viable alternative pre-Summa? Pressure from the hard-line (anti-directional universe) academic clique which controls many key legacy British journals? Route to tenure blocked if the Randomness 'party line' is not toed? Some combination of the above? Whatever the reason, debate has effectively been strangled for a long, long time.

Enter Summa Theory. With philosophical roots in 'directional' Aristotelian thought, revolutionary (and non-aimless) Potentialism Theory sets the stage for a re-boot of literally all scientific fields - across both the hard and soft sciences. All.

As noted, the theory can be encapsulated in the one concise formula noted: Q4P > C+ > E+. No exceptions to the formula across the trillions of data points from the Big Bang to this moment. No infinite quantity of universes needed to get to 21st Century humans.

In the mix, the theory simultaneously and neatly lances metaphysics, cosmology, teleology and "purpose". Cogently and concisely. No fat; No flaws. Good to Go.

Bulletproof?

Potentialism Theory presented via David Birnbaum's
3-part treatise Summa Metaphysica
is a new paradigm metaphysics.

The theory is seemingly bulletproof -
and is the only known metaphysics
which is proved inductively

Obviously, there can only be one correct metaphysics.

Proposed, developed, enhanced and vetted
since Summa I (1988),
Potentialism Theory challenges
for that solitary position
on the metaphysics/cosmology chessboard.

As the aphorism goes
in various permutations -
"we stand on the shoulders of giants,
but indeed, perhaps we achieve
a broader, richer, deeper, more fully-integrated
perspective, insight and truth"

Note that fine-tuning of the theory
will undoubtedly unfold.

For 40+ page Inductive Proof presentation

Inductive1000.com

I have been on the case since 1960.

Others - like Andrei Alyokhin -
have proposed that this metaphysics
be deployed as the operative working hypothesis.

The theory is cutting-edge,
to put it mildly

It is "not your mother's Oldsmobile"

Glossary

(abridged)

...of first tier of Potentialism Terms
Over the past three decades (since KTAV published Summa I in 1988) Birnbaum's Potentialism Theory has been built-out. As such, it has developed its own lexicon to describe its fundamental principle of Potentialism.

Potentialists define the universal drive of cosmology as the Infinite Quest for Potential. This is the inherent “drive” of the cosmos to seek its own ever-further complexity/sophistication/wondrousness.

Potential journeys towards a non-concretized state of infinite complexity/sophistication/wondrousness. The universe moves inexorably towards this infinite goal.

Potentialism
Potentialism itself represents a new metaphysics/science for a new century. It provides an overarching 21st century metaphysics that seeks no less than to encompass the scientific, the religious, the spiritual, the secular and the philosophical.

Fully encompassing all modern science, Potentialism is potentially (repeat: potentially) a candidate - in due course - for a (true) Theory of Everything – not only in scientific terms, but in all terms meaningful to humankind.

Potentialism seeks to arm those seeking an understanding of the cosmic order with the tools necessary to have a “seat at the table” for this new metaphysics. All are invited as science comes back to the metaphysics table after a de facto three century, post-Spinoza hiatus.

Following is an (abridged) short glossary of core, key terms of Potentialism.

Q4P∞ The Infinite Quest for Infinite Potential
- usually shortened to Quest for Potential in conversation, though the formal name best represents the iterative, infinite nature of Potential. This represents the universe’s innate drive towards fulfilling its true potential. Also commonly denoted as Q4P∞ or, super-shorthand: Q4P.

Note that there are multiple embedded infinities in Q4P∞:
See Infinity-3.com

CWP
Cosmic Womb of Potential

C+ Complexification
The hypothesized cosmic intermediate drive – “Q4P’s handmaiden” – maneuvering the cosmos towards greater complexity/sophistication/richness/integration/variety/wondrousness.

In turn, note that one of the components of Complexification just-noted above is ‘integration’; meaning, Complexification does not occur divorced from the cosmic landscape; rather, Complexification integrates into-the-process the harmonization/optimization of the ongoing Complexification with the existing bio-landscape.

Complexification seeks quantum jumps – QJs (see entry in this same Glossary) – as opposed to incremental advance.

In its ongoing march of Complexification – the universe moves ever-and-ever closer to what Birnbaum calls Extraordinariation (E+) – the universal end-goal – a horizon to be approached, but never quite realized – and a state otherwise defined as hyper-Complexification.

E+ Extraordinariation.
The end-target of this journey towards increased complexity/sophistication/wondrousness is referred to as Extraordinariation (see Extraordinariation.com). Extraordinariation is not so much a precise destination as an ideal goal to be sought-after, albeit never quite fully-realized.

Note that Q4P itself does not quite know precisely what E+ looks like. Q4P is so to speak 'finding its way'. Along these lines, the Cambrian Explosion may have been a re-set.

Q4P∞ → C+ → E+
[ the SuperLaw / Super-Formula ]
The fundamental, core/primal drive of the cosmic dynamic. This represents the Infinite Quest for Potential which drives the cosmic order towards greater and greater complexity and onward towards Extraordinariation.

Albert Einstein, in his book The World As I See It, stated that the harmony of natural law "reveals an intelligence of such superiority that, compared with it, all the systematic thinking and acting of human beings is an utterly insignificant reflection."

Q4P∞ = the Cosmic Instinct

POTENTIALISM THEORY

In a letter to a child who asked if scientists pray, Einstein wrote, “Everyone who is seriously involved in the pursuit of science becomes convinced that a spirit is manifest in the laws of the Universe – a spirit vastly superior to that of man, and one in the face of which we with our modest powers must feel humble.”

Potentialism Theory posits that there exists
a hitherto undiscerned core and transcendent dynamic

Q4P^∞

aka

Quest for Potential^∞

which not only drives the universe,
but actually IS the universe.

We are all fully integral to this dynamic -
as hard as that proposition might be.

Potentialism Theory = Summa Theory = Birnbaum Theory = Q4P Theory = Quantum Man Theory

POTENTIALISM THEORY

multi-tasker

Summa develops the themes
that this proposed formula
Q4P^∞ → C+ → E+
is simultaneously:
(a) a dynamic
(b) a description of a process,
(c) the direction of the universe
(d) the teleology / purpose / 'driver' - of the universe
(e) a concise formula encapsuling the entire universe
(f) possibly the formula for 'life force'
(g) the metaphysical/spiritual arc of the Cosmic Order

Push-Pull

Aristotelian metaphysics is Push.

The Prime Mover (Latin: primum movens) drives the universe forward.

Potentialism Theory, however, is Push-Pull

Potential both pushes forward and pulls forward (beckons forth).

Like labor at childbirth, which mimics cosmic dynamics, Potentialism Theory metaphysics is Push-Pull.

The potential of a system - large or small - ever-so-subtly opens a potential pathway for the system.

Q4P^∞- directed Evolution

Evolution is not directed by
Natural Selection / Random Mutation
(the fatally-flawed Darwinian theory)

Evolution is hyper-intelligently designed
by Q4P^∞ - a secular dynamic
primed as-its-essence
to build-out Complexification (C+)
enroute to Extraordinariation (E+)

There is, thus, respectfully,
a powerful secular resolution path to resolving/understanding
the extraordinarily intelligently-crafted
hyper-complex and ongoing journey of Evolution

The hitherto intractable scientific conundrum of Evolution
is elegantly resolved (by Potentialism Theory)
without deploying concepts of Creator-designed Evolution

'Complexification Evolution'

Potentialism Theory rejects both
(a) Creationism and (b) Natural Selection

Rather, species have (ensemble) inexorably evolved through
my hypothesized
"Complexification Evolution",

This ever-unfolding dynamic
vectors towards Extraordinariation+
by my hypothesized (secular)
(evolving Quantum Mechanics-based)
Quest for Potential^∞, ( Q4P^∞)

( with Q4P^∞ being
the hitherto undiscerned and underlying
primal & ~eternal
cosmic force/dynamic ).

The track of 'Complexification Evolution'
inexorably follows my hypothesized SuperLaw,
Q4P^∞ → C+ → E+

Simultaneously, on a personal level, I believe that our (secular) universe of Potential itself quests after (elusive) God and Spirituality -
as components of its inexorable march towards Extraordinariation -
under the umbrella of the same above-noted hypothesized SuperLaw:

Hyper-Intelligent Design

# Evolution is, indeed, driven by hyper-intelligent design

# The designer/iterator is (secular) Q4P^∞

# (asserted) Natural Selection / Random Mutation is a non-starter

# No need to deploy the biblical 'Creator' here

# Q4P^∞ re-configures genes and designs new ones;
The 'designer' does not re-purpose mutations

Evolution: the next focus of Potentialism Theory

Darwinism is fatally flawed

# The entire Natural Selection / Random Mutations proposition (aka Darwinism) is fatally flawed.

# Respectfully, notwithstanding its global standing, Natural Selection / Random Mutation
simply does not advance the Evolution drama.

# The confluence of factors which launched and sustained the theory at the very center of
academe is a bizarre 150+ year saga worthy of examination; but that saga is not the focus.

a1) Except in Marvel (superhero) comic books, mutations are typically weaker than the original;
a positive mutation is rare, at best; this reality is not a formula for dynamic evolution.

a2) Intergral to DNA - the foundation of life - is (ultra highly sophisticated and complex)
sequenced digital coding; even one random mutation of this sophisticated
coding does not end well; mutations undermine 'the foundation of life';
mutations do not enhance life. Compound mutations of this coding are disastrous,
not salutary, for the potential of the life form.

a3) At least three dozen universal constants are ultra highly fine-tuned for the existence of life;
were these constants truly fine-tuned by random mutation? Seriously?

b) Even if the Darwinian concept were, in principle, viable, one key challenge is that one
would still need "a trillion-trillion times" the time (4.0-4.5 billion years) currently allotted for the
5 billion new species.

In the human genome there are 3 billion nucleotides
(and corresponding 3 billion characters of digital code)

The odds of having gotten to this sequence randomly are
greater than 26 to the power of 3 billion........
Would you take these odds?

Respectfully, classic and well-established Probability Theory would reject random mutation generating five billion species over 4-4.5 billion years as a viable denouement. Probability Theory can be deployed for possibility, not for de facto impossibility*. [To argue to the contrary - per the mainstream consensus - is, respectfully, simply group-think run amok.]

As in cosmology, randomness is clearly amply present on-stage in Evolution, but, once again, is not a component in evolution.

c1) SPECIES: The Cambrian explosion was just half billion year ago. With its uniquely rich and
    extraordinary multitude of new species - within a super-narrow ~19 million year slice of time**,
    it belies Darwinism.
    This issue alone is fatal to Darwinian (Natural Selection / Random Mutation) Theory.

c2) PHYLA: All the major phyla seem to have appeared during the Cambrian Explosion
(maximum currently guestimated duration: a very narrow 30 million years).

    Thirty million years is a very narrow sliver of the 4.5 billion years of our earth;
    thus, just by the paragraph above, Darwinian Natural Selection / Random Mutation
    is clearly simply not a significant factor in advanced Evolution.

d) How could complex bio-chemical transformations
possibly result from the proposed randomness Darwinian mechanism?
Per Michael Boehe's presentations, biological systems at the molecular level
present hyper-complexity even greater than complexity at other levels.

e) How does one get biological creativity/innovation/super-complexity -
from linear, spaced-out mutations?

f) How does Darwinism explain - "linearly irreducible complexity"
    (my term / I expanded the classic 'irreducible complexity' term)
    i.e. complexity instances in organisms which simply could not have occurred via a linear
    mutation sequence stretched-out over time (see also Michael Boehe discussions)?

g) The fossil record in general and pre-Cambrian, in particular, does not particularly sustain
the Darwinian Theory (see also David Berlinski discussions).

h) Per Randomness / Darwinism - where did
    - first life
    - the first cell
    and
    - the first species

each come from?

No answer, Darwinian crew?

--------------------------------

Not one species will ever be birthed via Darwinism, let alone billions of species,
even if a trillion years were allotted for even one new species.

Evolution is achieved by Q4P∞ introducing new genes; by re-wiring gene networks;
and by deliberate and complex
sequenced bio-chemical transformations choreographed by Q4P∞;
Evolution is not achieved via mutations;
not via a slo-mo and simplistic stretched-out linear sequence of random mutations.
In-the-mix, new proteins and concomitant digital coding must be introduced
.
And just where is this new digital coding coming from?
It is certainly not coming from random mutation;
rather, the the new (digital) coding is coming to you courtesy of digital-based Q4P∞.

--------------------------------

*See Lloyd, Programming the Universe, Knopf, 2007, NY, p. 57

"In fact, the chance of an ordered universe like ours arising out of random flips of a coin is so small as to be effectively zero."

** 19 million years Cambrian period - out of, say, 4,5 billion years = 4/10 of 1% of the total time sequence....yielding well over 50% of the most complex/sophisticated species?
[Meaning, insufficient time for Natural Selection / Random Mutation
to produce billions of super-complex species.]
Why is that theory (Darwinism) still afloat at all?
As the expression goes, "What are they smoking?"

what David Pines (Complex Adaptive Matter 2005) is reading as 'complex adaptive matter',

are all actually one and the same:

>>> the Potentialim Evolution hypothesis -

What they are viewing, is actually Q4P re-engineering the genomes

More technically, they are (typically) viewing Q4P on a local-level/micro-level tweaking & re-engineering an individual genome.

However, the plot thickens....

# Q4P Evolution is operating simultaneously in an integrated fashion across
all the genomes of our planet

# Meaning, the educated hypothesis is that plant genomes
will be re-engineering ensemble with human genomes and ensemble with insect genomes, etc.

# Why the integrated choreography? Because, of course, all the 'pieces' need to advance
(and fit/interact) together ensemble / efficiently / dynamically - on the C+ march towards E+.

Woese

note: the now-established phenomenon (per Carl R. Woese d. 2012) of H.G.T (Horizontal Gene Transfer) - that DNA itself can indeed move sideways, across barriers, from one kind of creature to another - would buttress (Summa's) Evolution Theory above.

Summa (just above) posits simultaneous (varied) re-engineering across 'barriers' (life forms); Woese (in the late 1990s) posited simultaneous identical DNA-cluster replicating across 'barriers'. So, Woese was on a parallel but different track. [However, I suspect that Woese may have missed important variations in the 'replications' - and, in fact, was observing precisely what I am hypothesizing.]

Some macro Observations

Five billion (ever more sophisticated and wondrous) species over the lifespan course of life on our planet.

Random mutations crucially setting the stage for the inexorable advance/expansion and Complexification of the species on our planet?
No, the random mutations are an insignificant side show, not factoring-into evolution

So, Evolution, YES; but the catalyst and driver is Q4P.

Notwithstanding the politically correct pro-Darwinian view, random genetic mutations in nature are (per Potentialism Theory) respectfully simply not a factor in evolutionary biology. And, yes, correct, Natural Selection, a pillar of modern biology, falls. The 1-2 punch of iconic Darwinism - Natural Selection / Random Mutation , however established in modern science, is fatally-flawed.

["Common Ancestor" aka "Common Descent", another legacy of Darwin, is not addressed by Potentialism Theory directly.]

In both cosmology, in general, and evolution, in particular, Q4P is 'cracking the whip' and 'running the show'; not Randomness.

Both cosmology and related evolutionary biology are 'directional', not random-chance.

In both cases, we do not ride a multi-billion year trajectory towards E+ (Extraordinariation) via randomness. It is hard enough for ('directional') metaphysical/quantum hyper-intelligence Q4P to pull this off ; )

Building-out the Cosmic Order - ongoing over the eons - requires a (directional) hyper-intelligent prime prime time catalyst - Q4P^∞.

Recap

.	Cosmology	Evolution
Randomess formulation	aimless/random	*aimless/random* mutation - with survival-directional Darwinism then guiding
Potentialism theory	Directional Q4P	Directional Q4P

Thus, Randomness Formulation deploys a non-directional 'play' - aimlessness -
somehow first to ignite our universe. and then to sustain / drive / iterate / optimize / expand
our universe - over a 14 billion year span and counting. In the mix, non-directional 'aimlessness' somehow - miraculously - allegedly via random mutations - drives Evolution forward from a single cell entity to 21st Century humans and associated consciousness. Quite a feat for an 'aimless' play.

Potentialism, on the other hand, deploys its quite-directional core dynamic -
Q4P - across both Cosmology and Evolution.

Issues with the (competing) Randomness formulation

It is clearly dead-wrong
see Direction panel just-above

Internally contradictory?
The same entrenched British Randomness academic clique which fanatically defends its (non-directional) Theory of No Theory - Randomness, simultaneously fanatically defends (directional) Evolution.

alchemy?
Notorious alchemists swore they could turn lead into gold. However that seems like a simple trick compared to contemporary hard-line Randomnist High Priests who profess that their theory turns the random void into our rocking and rolling - for 14 billion years - universe.
Is the Randomness formulation simply the ‘successor theory’ to alchemy?

Second Law of Thermodynamics:
Why does our allegedly random universe not implode from entropy? [hint: because it is driven forward by (competing Potentialism Theory's) Q4P, and not randomly]

combination - The Emperor's Clothes and The Wizard of Oz?
Is the fantastical Randomness formulation not a 1:1 parallel to these just-noted fables of vacuousness?

We are all still waiting for the actual theory:
The hard-line Randomness clique has perfected the dark art of "toxifying" any theorist who dares disagree with their aimless and hollow construct; but, after 150+ years, for their part they have yet to produce an actual theory. [ translation: the Randomness/Aimlessness clique is an intellectual charlatan ]

From the shadows, the Randomnist clique hyper- aggressively mauls 'directional universe' theorists, but never actually seems to present an actual theory. Are we supposed to conflate frenzied attacks with an actual theory? To paraphrase the diss used by Texas cattlemen to characterize big bluster / no substance characters: These Randomness hombres are ALL HAT; NO CATTLE.

defining our universe:
There are many and significant random dimensions to our universe; but, randomness does not define it; rather, (competing Potentialism Theory's) Quest for Potential defines our universe.

'Randomness' Invalidated by Fine-Tuned Universe proposition
Is the universe fine-tuned for life? This proposition has gained increasing prominence and traction.

The proposition reached critical mass in 1999 with the publication of Just Six Numbers by Martin Rees, distinguished British Astronomer Royal. The proposition is directly antithetical to the Randomness proposition; the proposition negates Randomness. Rees went on to become head of the Royal Society.

Randomness may have been frontally challenged prior, including by Summa I, 1988, but Randomness 'is slain' by the 1999 Rees work; and a stake is driven in its heart by Summa II (2005).

'Defaming' is not 'Debating'
Some hard-line Randomness proponents seem confused. 'Defaming opposing theorists' - typically through paid surrogates/hit men - does actually not qualify for 'debating opposing theorists'.

Denial of Negative Reality
The first requirement of a theorist is to deal with reality. The 'denial of negative reality' psychosis can be hazardous to one's legacy. The core tenet of Randomness - non-directionality, has been clearly scientifically demonstrated to be false- on two fronts: Fine-Tuned universe (see Martin Rees, Just Six Numbers (1999) and Direction section from David Birnbaum, Summa Metaphysica II (2005).

Contrary to the first - and only - axiom of Randomness, the universe, is unequivocally directional. See Directional.

'Game Over'?
For over a decade, and on two key different fronts, Randomness is in checkmate. Both Fine-Tuned universe formulation and the empirically demonstrated Complexification C+ / complexity teleology (universe purpose/direction) respectfully frontally render the Randomness formulation of 'no directionality' fatally undermined and disproven. The emperor, indeed, had no clothes.

the Randomness 'Theory of No Theory'
No theory.
No content.
No core work.
No formulation.
No science.
No cosmology.

Basics
The earth is not flat; the sun does not orbit the earth; our universe did not randomly ignite, gain traction, evolve, and steadily iterate towards ever-increasing sophistication and wondrousness ongoing for 14 billion years and counting.

intellectual 'sleight of hand" ?
There is no scientific anchoring whatsoever.
Random universe is simply hocus pocus masquerading as science.

product of an "echo chamber" discussion?
Group Think?

Go along to get along?
Bandwagon syndrome?

more akin to the mantra of a medieval nihilistic cult
- than to a serious academic discussion in 21st Century England

a fanatic - and in-vain - gambit
- to align science with hard-line Atheism (de facto a fundamentalist and militant anti-directional universe belief system).

"Big Brother" modus operandi
No debate; No discussion; No competition of ideas.

Q4P∞ = the Cosmic Instinct

Other Universes
Postulate Matrix

Postulate #1. Universes do not simply pop-up

Postulate #2. There may or may not be more universes

Postulate #3. If there are other universes. they will each need-be
(a) Potential-based - because Potential is the only eternal something and then
(b) Q4P-ignited, and Q4P-driven

Postulate #4: All universes are hence directional.

Why? Because, as elucidated above, there would appear to be only one eternal dynamic - Potential/Possibility - and without it in the mix, no universes are making an appearance. And with Potential in the mix, every single one of these universes will be quite directional and quite interesting.
As regards the Randomness play re: multiverse....

As we are aware, the Randomness crew found itself in seeming checkmate as a consequence of the 1999 Martin Rees book Just Six Numbers which demonstrated clearly fine-tuned universe, and de facto showed directional universe. The direction of fine-tuned universe? seeking life.

In desperation, the Randomness crew formulated the following attempted escape hatch: Our universe may be directional, but our universe is a random fluke; there are infinite universes, and ours happened to hit it lucky. Meaning, (post-1999) per segments of the Randomness crew, there are Infinite -1 totally aimless universes, and 1 fine-tuned universe (ours).

This escape hatch is fatally flawed, however.

1) As elucidated above, if there are other universes, they are directional.

2) the Cosmic Order has better things to do than to waste virtually limitless energy launching infinite -1 aimlessrt (and dead-end) universes. [See also Occam’s Razor, wiki]

3) Randomness does not and cannot generate a universe - even a very primitive one.

4) Classic and well-established Probability Theory would reject the "infinite -1 aimless universe theory" with the Cosmic Order randomly birthing, sustaining, and driving our extraordinary and ever-iterating universe over a 14 billion year span as a viable denouement. Probability Theory can be deployed for possibility, not for de facto impossibility*.

*See Lloyd, Programming the Universe, Knopf, 2007, NY, p. 57:

“In fact, the chance of an ordered universe like ours arising out of random flips of a coin is so small as to be effectively zero.”

The Second Law of Thermodynamics

is a strong proof positive for

Potentialism Theory

see SecondLaw1000

For starters, after 14 billion years our universe is accelerating and expanding;
so, clearly Quest for Potential is trumping entropy...

Potentialism Theory = Summa Theory = Birnbaum Theory = Q4P Theory = Quantum Man Theory

Something from Nothing?

Creation ex nihilo?

Not exactly.

More precisely,
Creation ex Potential
( Creation out of Potential )

But is Potential something or nothing?

Depends on how you look at it.

As noted,
Potential is Eternal - By definition.
Indeed, it is self-evident that Potential is Eternal.

And, Potential/Possibility is the only 'something'
which occupies this unique (eternal) conceptual space.

Thus, we have our suspect.

Chronology of the Universe

Eternal Origins → Present

( a metaphysics hypothesis )

introductory note: Hitherto Inscrutable Quantum Mechanics (QM) has at least two 'faces' which we are now (OCT 2017) aware of:
(a) the Potential/Possibility/Probabilistic 'face', and
(b) the Wheeler It-from-Bit 'face' as a prelude to the Lloyd Bits Compute the Universe 'face' build-out thereof

# rough sketch chronology - 1.00

Eternal Potential - as opposed-to Nothing - defines Eternal Origins.

At Eternal Origins, 'Potential reigns supreme'.

CWP = Cosmic Womb of Potential
(a Potentialism Theory term)

# rough sketch chronology - 1.25

We are now at the Cosmic Womb of Potential point here

Potential is PUSHING-forth

Simultaneously,
Infinite Potential way down-the-road is PULLING - tugging at -
Eternal Potential way back at Cosmic Origins

PUSH- PULL

The cosmic drama often mirrors the individual human drama

What is true for the Cosmic Order, will often be true for the individual human

This (hypothsized) extraordinary parallel enables the metaphysician to 'peer behind' the Big Bang -

Thus, the plot thickens...

Wave upon wave of Eternal Potential vectors towards the intense drama

The future - tracking towards infinity - 'beckons-forth' aching and yearning to view actualized Potential peeking over the horizon

Will this interminable cosmic tension ever see resolution?

Quantum Mechanics is, of course, a vast blueprint

But, this (theoretical) blueprint has a sub-blueprint (or a major dimension)
for equations of Potential dove-tailing off of 'actual' Eternal Potential

Simultaneous with the Push-Pull drama,
primordial Quantum Mechanics pegs-off-of the Eternal Potential
of primordial universe - and vice versa

The two somehow cycle off of each other

Meaning, Quantum Mechanics has some modicum of life breathed into it

The two dramas play-out in-concert

Q4P / Igniting Big Bang Q4P^∞ splits the (hypothesized) Zero-Point and ignites the Big Bang.

Meaning, Potential,

and not some spontaneous genesis - per Wheeler and his disciple Lloyd -
ignites the entire dynamic at Eternal Origins

Q4P^∞ then drives the evolution of the universe,
and then - post the formation of our planet 4.5 billion years ago -
the evolution of Evolution.

Q4P^∞ (or a derivative thereof) is the Cosmological Constant identified by Albert Einstein in 1917*; Einstein theorized the Cosmological Constant as the counter-force to gravity's otherwise inevitably imploding the universe. [ Actually, it is reverse, i. e. Gravity slows down the forward march of the Cosmological Constant aka Lambda.]

# rough sketch chronology - 11.00

The Cosmological Constant [Q4P^∞] has become identified with the simplest form of Dark Energy (Wiki / Cosmological Constant / Oct 22, 2017]

[ note: The Cosmological Constant is also known by a shorthand notation lambda, or /\ ]

# rough sketch chronology - 12.00

"In physical cosmology and astronomy, dark energy [Q4P^∞] is an unknown form of energy which is hypothesized to permeate all of space, tending to accelerate the expansion of the universe." [Wiki / Dark Energy / Oct 22, 2017]

[ So,
the Cosmological Constant = lambda = /\ = (simple) dark energy = a salient & manifest derivative of Q4P^∞ ]

see also inter-related scientific discussions - the Fifth Force.... Quintessence

YES / By ~2019 - thirty-one years after Summa I - elements of the scientific community are inching closer to Q4P^∞

# rough sketch chronology - 13.00

"Assuming that the standard model of cosmology is correct, the best current measurements indicate that dark energy [Q4P^∞] contributes 68.3% of the total energy in the present-day observable universe." [Wiki / Dark Energy / Oct 22, 2017]

# rough sketch chronology - 14.00

"Dark energy [Q4P^∞] is the most accepted hypothesis to explain the observations since the 1990s indicating that the universe is expanding at an accelerating rate." [Wiki Dark Energy / Oct 22, 2017]

Meaning,
# no Dark Energy [Q4P^∞], then the Big Crunch [imploding universe]
# sufficient Dark Energy [Q4P^∞], then Expanding universe

Meaning, as well, that Potential [Q4P^∞] is the prime determinant of the ultimate denouement of the universe; not gravity; not entropy; and most certainly not randomness

# rough sketch chronology - 15.00

At every stage/step of the unfolding Cosmic drama/order
- from Eternal Origins thru the present day (and onward) -
Q4P^∞ - the hitherto undiscerned dynamic -
is front & center, and, indeed, the driving dynamic.

Q4P^∞ is the metaphysical spinal column of the arc of the universe.

* In 1929 (Berlin) Einstein incorrectly retracted his 1917 hypothesis; but the scientific community has upheld the original (1917) hypothesis.

personal note: Both of our families lived in Berlin in 1929, and both emigrated to the USA in the 1930s, Einstein in March 1933 (while lecturing in CA → Princeton, NJ), and Birnbaum in October 1938 (pre-Kristallnact, Berlin → Madison, WISC)

Q4P∞ = the Cosmic Instinct

The Visual Horizon

There is a limit - 'the visual horizon' - of how far back in time 'science' can 'see', i.e. there is a limit to 'visualization'..
Essentially, of course, the 'limit' is the Big Bang (13.8 billion years ago) - and the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation(discovered 1964 is the 'trace evidence'.

Now, physicists, like all of us, like visual evidence, testability, and supporting equations - so scientists are on very uncomfortable ground in peering behind the Big Bang.

Indeed, scientists, in particular, are not wired for doing so

But this is not shocking; it is rare for an individual or a cohort (like scientists) to be adroit both in the physical sciences - and, simultaneously in conceptual/creative fields (like metaphysics incorporating the pre-Big Bang time zone.)

Possible (to be really good at both), but improbable.

MIT students do not necessarily do great at Harvard - and vice versa

First Key:
Now, the first key to the solution of peering behind the veil of the Big Bang - is to discern / isolate-on an eternal dynamic - if there is one.

This I have allegedly done, as you are aware. (Potential, per my series Summa Metaphysica, is eternal.)

Once one has isolated on that dynamic (Potential), one can, so to speak reverse-engineer the Cosmic Order. <<< my educated conjecture

But how/where does one start?

Second Key:
Well, the next key to the kingdom is the following:

Humans mimic the Cosmic Order - and vice versa; the two are mirror images.* <<< my educated conjecture

Thus, one can potentially often fill-in gaps in our understanding of each (humans, Cosmic Order) - by examining/dissecting its mirror image..

This (mirror imaging) is an 'imprecise science', but it gives us a powerful tool.- if used in conjunction with the right Working Hypothesis.
[Yes, we assert that Potentialism Theory is the appropriate Working Hypothesis.]

The Cambrian Explosion

and our Theory

Earth: formed: ~4.5 billion years ago

Cambrian explosion: ~ 0.5 billion years ago

'....an event approximately 541 million years ago in the Cambrian period
when most major animal phyla appeared in the fossil record.
It lasted for about 13 – 25 million years
and resulted in the divergence of most modern metazoan phyla.
The event was accompanied by major diversification of other organisms.' ***

So, focusing on Q4P^∞, what is happening in this picture?

My best assessment is that for Q4P^∞. the first 4 billion (post-formation of Earth)
year period was 'schooling' / 'warm-up'

Q4P^∞ experimented and learned; it steadily advanced up the slope of the learning curve

At the Cambrian point, Q4P^∞ made-its-move

It had just tested the gears for Complexification for 4 billion years -
and Q4P^∞ astutely integrated the new-found knowledge

At Cambrian it mustered its powers - and choreographed/designed a new platform for Extraordinariation - the explosion of diversified organisms...

THE INTER-RELATIONSHIP

What are some components of the interrelationship between
the universe ~Life Form
to (the somehow tethered) humans?

The Life Form universe vis-à-vis humans always, always seeks E+

The universe
seeks-after...aches-for...maneuvers-for -
the widest/richest possible panoply of E+

The universe is many billions of years old,

and a typical human has a life span of under 100 years

but

the typical human (and its cohort) is the vehicle through which the universe vicariously has (ever-richer) emotion and related (ever-expansive) consciousness, as we know it

Counterintuitive

And, not to be discounted, the human - and its cohort - is the vehicle through which the universe itself possibly seeks Spirituality - and, indeed, (elusive) God.

The universe seeks-after its creator

Thus, classic religion has humans facing heavenwards typically in obeissance to God;
but in our schema the (quite formidable) Universe ~Life Form is more mechanistic than humans;
and, indeed, the universe deploys humans to seek/quest for The (elusive) Divine

The universe may be incapable of looking back pre-Big Bang

[Meaning, neo-mechanistic Q4P does not consider itself divine]

Universe > Humans

The Life-Form Universe is the Qi-provider and genome engineer, among other 'direct benefits' to humans

Bio-Feedback

.............. from humans > the Universe "Cloud" is presumably in-the-mix

Quantum Mechanics (QM) v. Q4P

It is far from clear where QM ends and where Q4P starts.

And it is far from clear whether there is 1% overlap or 100% overlap (at this point).

And it is far from clear if/how the overlap % has morphed over the eons.

Simply put, we do not know the precise relationship -
and if/how that relationship has morphed.

just one dynamic

Potentialism Theory deploys
just one (hypothesized) dynamic - Q4P -
across the depth and breadth of cosmic history.

Meaning, just this one overarching dynamic-
Quest for Potential^∞ -
has driven the universe,
through this day

start:
Deductive1000.com

The initial and partial
hard physics proof
for Potentialism Theory

Lambda ≈ Dark Energy ≈ Cosmological Constant ≈ Q4P, per Summa Theory.

Lambda = salient Q4P^∞

Lambda

the Cosmological Constant

Einstein (1917) hypothesized that there was a dynamic countering gravity's pull on the planets; else the planets would crunch together.

Einstein identified this dynamic as the Cosmological Constant.

The world scientific community would later call this force Lambda.

In reality (per Potentialism Theory) Einstein (1917) had the concept correct, but the seqence/alignment backwards.

The correct seqence/alignment is:
1. Lambda is driving the universe to expand outward;
2. Gravity is putting the brakes on Lambda.

Now, Lambda is salient Q4P,
or in other words
Lambda is Q4P somewhat ‘showing its hand’.
(Elusive) Lambda, in turn, is manifested 'saliently' via Dark Energy.

Lambda, of course, is just the ‘visible’
"tip of the iceberg" of infinite Quest for Potential^∞ (Q4P^∞).

Thus, while Volume I of my metaphysics series (Summa Metaphysica) proposing Quest for Potential is copyrighted 1986, Einstein discerned Lambda in 1917; he did not realize - and never realized - that he had hit 'the mother lode' (i.e. the 'driver of the Cosmic Order').

For the record,

In 1929,
Einstein (in error) rejected his own Cosmological Constant concept, calling it his 'biggest blunder'. [Actually, he was right the first time (1917).]

In the 1990s,
New studies confirm that the Cosmological Constant is the best fit for Dark Energy, and offers the most precise and accurate estimate yet of its value.

In 2018,
The current standard model of cosmology is known as the Lambda-CDM model .

However, maintream science, in parallel to Einstein (1917), still has the sequence/alignment of the dynamics backwards: See line 4 near top: "In reality...

As of Fall 2018, in physical cosmology and astronomy, Dark Energy (≈ Lambda) is considered an unknown form of energy which is hypothesized to permeate all of space, and which is accelerating the expansion of the universe. [Summa / Potentialism Theory, of course, hypothesizes same (1988 →) for Q4P.]

Discerned, Identified, Calculated & Measured

Lambda = salient Q4P^∞

Scientifically Discerned

The scientific community &
the inadvertent 100+ year hard science unfolding/discovery
of key components of Potentialism Theory

So, Lambda ≈ Dark Energy ≈ Cosmological Constant ≈ Q4P, per Summa Theory.

Lambda was discerned / identified initially by Einstein in 1917,
but has emerged (by 2018) front & center in astrophysics
via the 'Lambda-CDM Model'
(the standard model of Big Bang cosmology).

Meaning, Q4P^∞ is de facto embedded in - and integral-to - the current standard model of cosmology

So,
re: The Cosmological Constant ≈ Lambda ≈ Dark Energy ≈ Q4P, per Summa

1) It was introduced, discerned & calculated (as noted, initially by Einstein, 1917).

2) The best current measurements indicate that Dark Energy
contributes 68.3 percent of the total energy
of the present-day observable universe.

3) Dark Energy's density has been precisely measured
(apparently ~7 x 10^-30 g/cm³)

4) It is clearly key in driving the universe forward.

5) The current standard model scientific theory has Lambda literally starting its title

So, scientifically measured on multiple fronts, placed front & center in the standard model title, and generally accepted as driving the universe forward.

Is not Lambda thus direct 1:1 corroboration of a key slice of Potentialism Theory?

Lambda ≈ Dark Energy ≈ Cosmological Constant
is thus the scientifically (measurable /measured) manifestation of Q4P.

Not bad having key components one's (revolutionary) metaphysics/cosmology theory de facto scientifically discerned over a 101 year period (1917 to date).

So, Einstein tripped-over Q4P in 1917, but misread its overarching power and centrality.

And the scientific community at-large has yet to grasp Lambda's full dimensions.

The Cosmological Constant's identification (1917) by Einstein (hence, the discovery of a 'physical' manifestation of Summa's Q4P),
is the rough equivalent of Sir Arthur Eddington's (May 29, 1919) solar eclipse proof of Einstein's curvature of space time theory.

Except that, as noted, in Einstein's (Cosmological Constant) case, he radically missed the full import.

Psychologically and scientifically, Einstein was fixated on gravity as the central motif of the Cosmic Order; thus, to Einstein, other dynamics - like Lambda - essentially play supporting or reaction roles.

However, from my Potentialism-centric - and hopefully objective - view of the Cosmic Order, whereas gravity (a physical dynamic) is very central in our universe, it is trumped in importance/impact/centrality by overarching Q4P - the overarching metaphysical dynamic of the Cosmic Order.

I respectfully believe that Lambda crucially moves the needle on Potentialism - from theory to partially scientifically discerned.
And, indeed, the Lambda-CDM Model is more precisely, the Q4P-CDM Model.

In a twist of fate, Potentialism Theory was partially/inadvertently discerned & partially validated (1917) by scientific great Einstein - before the Potentialism Metaphysics/Cosmology theory was even conceptualized/presented/disseminated (1988 and onwards) by Outsider/Outlier Birnbaum. Rumor has it that I was not even born until 1950. And via scientific advances in understanding the Cosmological Constant ≈ Dark Energy - which is actually Q4P Energy, the academic establishment has advanced our scientific knowledge of Potentialism Theory, and to some partial extent, validated it.

Thus, the mainstream academic community may want the interloper (Birnbaum) to stop messing in their turf with his over-the-top theory; but they have unwittingly albeit scientifically - and from multiple angles - given significant scientific evidence and buttress - over a 100-year span - to Summa's avant-garde theory (1988 →).

Put another way, the establishment academic community has radically strengthened Potentialism's position on the metaphysics/cosmology chessboard. With respect, there is no known theory which can successfully challenge Potentialism.

Q4P Hiding in Plain Sight

Lambda = salient Q4P^∞

The Misnomer
'Dark Energy'

The correct appellation would be:
Salient Q4P^∞ Energy
or
SQE

'Dark Energy' is meaningless in this astrophysics arena;
there is nothing dark about it

'Salient Q4P^∞ Energy' ( 'SQE' ) is meaningful - and precise.

The Boss

Lambda = salient Q4P^∞

Lambda

an integral part
of the over-arching cosmic dynamic

Einstein and scientists to follow tend to view Lambda as a stand-alone dynamic;
however, Lambda is just a salient portion of overarching Q4P^∞;
and that is part of the reason that Einstein et al. have such great difficulty with Lambda.

Q4P^∞ reigns supreme
and Lambda is just a salient segment of it.

David Birnbaum Academic Bio

David Birnbaum is a philosophical writer, conceptual theorist, historical chronicler and editor.

# universal secular philosophy & Jewish religious philosophy:

Birnbaum is known globally as “the architect of Potentialism Theory” – a unified philosophy/cosmology/metaphysics. The paradigm-challenging theory - presented through three prisms - is delineated in Birnbaum’s 3-volume Summa Metaphysica series (1988, 2005, 2014). See Summa1000.com.

A riposte to Summa Theologica of (St.) Thomas Aquinas, the (original) Birnbaum treatise challenges both the mainstream Western philosophy of Aristotelianism as well as the well propped-up British/atheistic cosmology of Randomness.

The Summa Metaphysica series was the focus of an international academic conference on Science & Religion April 16-19, 2012 at BARD College (see Conference1000.com).

The focus of over 150 reviews and articles, Summa Metaphysica has been an assigned Course Text at over 15 institutions of higher learning globally. The work has been very widely covered globally. (see SummaCoverage.com for 100+ articles on the series as well as the Course Text institutions.

The first volume of the Summa series, God and Evil (KTAV, 1988) is considered by many to be a breakthrough modern day classic in the field of religious philosophy and of theodicy, in particular. See also GodOfPotential.com

# editor, Jewish thought & spirituality:

David Birnbaum is the conceptualizer and Editor-in-Chief of the Mesorah Matrix series on Jewish thought and spirituality. The series spans 10-volumes with 10 respective themes and includes 200+ original pieces from 150+ global Jewish thought leader essayists. See Mesorah1000.com.

# historical chronicler and author:

In the history realm, David Birnbaum is the author/chronicler of the 2-volume The Crucifixion – of the Jews. The 2-volume set (published in 2009) traces a direct trajectory from the Canon Gospels in the First Century to Auschwitz in the Twentieth. In November 2019, ten years after the publication of The Crucifixion, the Church of England / Anglican Communion issued a major document/report "God's Unfailing Word" - which accepted/confirmed many of the key thrusts of the (highly-controversial) Birnbaum frontal challenge to the Church of a decade prior. See Crucifixion1000.com.

The inter-related Birnbam history series is his 7-volume Jews, Church and Civilization. See Civilization1000.com.

# education

David Birnbaum has served on the faculty of the New School for Social Research in Manhattan. He is a graduate of Yeshiva of Forest Hills (Dov Revel), Yeshiva University High School (MTA), City College of New York (CCNY), and Harvard.

Running the Gauntlet ...

The author of a new theory is typically compelled to
'run a gauntlet of toxicity' before the new theory even gets a fair hearing

A sequenced list of toxic gambits deployed by entrenched orthodoxy academic establishments v. dynamic new paradigm theories follows:

First, the theory is politically boxed-out

Second, the theoretician/author is dissed and/or defamed - to undermine the theory

Third, the theory is cavalierly dismissed

Fourth, fake flaws in the theory are manufactured/asserted by the (now increasingly-desperate) Establishment

Fifth, the theory is aggressively politically opposed by the (now panicking) Establishment

Sixth, the (original) theory is challenged as being not so original in any event - by the (now up against the wall) Establishment

Seventh, in league with the Establishment, wannabe players attempt to co-opt original authorship

The above-noted inter-related aspects of Q4P^∞ are pretty incredible; however, once one accepts as working hypotheses - the Big Bang as well as both the Potential and Computational 'faces' of Quantum Mechanics, the above is not a Mission Impossible leap,

The Sanctity of Human Life

Per Potentialism Theory, the core of Life is Q4P^∞

and Q4P^∞ is more like an infinite metaphysical river.

Thus, murder, for instance,

would, as well, be an attack on the core of the Cosmic Order

- aside from the crime of the murder of the individual victim.

And, the human, after all, is the apex production (to date)

of Infinite Quest for Potential.

Transform1000.com

What comes next?

Our premise is that, aside from the broader goal of Complexification enroute to Extraordinariation, Q4P^∞ seeks to (vicariously) play out dimensions of Consciousness and Love.

So, following that thrust, no reason to doubt that Q4P^∞ will seek to follow-up ongoing on those two thrusts. And, one suspects that ever-expanding Consciousness has priority between the two thrusts.

So, what does ever-expanding Consciousness imply?
I have not truly focused on that question, but I believe that it is a very key question to be addressed by all.

Multiverse?

Are there infinite universes -
per many Darwinian apologists ?

several points -

#1 Any universe requires Potential at its core.

#2 Even with core Potential, the odds of traction are remote.

#3 Even if possible traction, the Cosmos may not wish to
invest/divert/deploy energy
in even one other universe (overlapping in time with our universe).

#4 "Infinite universes theory" aka 'multi-verse theory' is a dubious proposition,
albeit hypothetically possible; basically, the theory appears to be propped-up
to provide 'life support' to on-its-death-bed quack theory 'Randomness Theory' -
primarily after the book Just Six Numbers (by Royal Astronomer Martin Rees, 1999)
dealt a body-blow to the vacuous (Randomness) theory.

currently this expansion rate is accelerating.

Q4P must vigilantly advance forward

Q4P must contend with gravity, as well,

LIKE

Why does this metaphysics trump all other metaphysics?

1) It is pegged to an eternal dynamic (Potential)

2) It is pegged to a proposed (hitherto undiscerned) natural force (Q4P) -
as opposed-to a supernatural force
or
to a fatally flawed theory (Darwinism)

3) The theory is all-embracing

4) The theory has been (successfully) vetted ongoing since Summa I in 1988

5) The core theme - the Common Denominator of Q4P∞ -
threads its way steadily and inexorably
from Eternal Origins through the Big Bang
through the current day - and onward

6) The theory allows optional space for a potential Divine 'instigator' at the get-go

7) The theory covers the key issues of classic and modern metaphysics:
Eternal Origins; pre-Big Bang realms; the instigation of the Big Bang;
the origin of our super-complex universe;
the eerily fine-tuned myriad Constants;
the origin and 'journey' of the 117+ Elements (to date);
the origin of life; the ascent of evolution;
the Cambrian Explosion;
the expansion of consciousness

8) The theory frontally deals with 'purpose' (across the board), e.g. -
# the purpose of Man (to strive for his Potential)
# the purpose of the universe (to strive for Extrordinariation)

9) The theory provides a fresh - and credible - theory of Evolution

10) The theory helps to clarify Dark Energy and Dark Matter -
and the associated universal constant (lambda)

11) The theory furnishes a SuperLaw to the universe:
Q4P∞ → C+ → E+
- a formula which as been inductively 'proven'

12) The theory is organized, disciplined and charted

13) The theory is creative and original

14) The theory has proven-to-be 'bulletproof'

15) The theory thematically threads consistently through pre and post Big Bang

16) After 5,000+ years of civilization,
there is no bona fide credible challenging theory.
to Potentialism

17) The theory is highly ambitious, but does not overreach

18) One can make the case that this is a serious contender for a
conceptual Theory of Everything

Cosmic Ironies

some counter-Intuitive ironies re: Q4P^∞

Q4P^∞ is the source of life in our universe,
but is not itself fully alive

Q4P^∞ crafted our universe,
but seeks after God - its creator* - vicariously - via ourselves

Q4P^∞ is practically all-knowing,
but seeks after human-like consciousness via ourselves

* Q4P^∞ quests for full understanding of its 'creator', and assumes -
rightfully or wrongfully - that it has a classic creator.

Quest for Potential^∞ - THE SACRED DYNAMIC

excerpt from
God and Evil (Summa Metaphysica I)
KTAV Publishing, NJ 1988,
from section 100.00: The Epicenter of the Divine, pps: 66-67

Holy Divine Potential.....
the infinite Divine blaze leapt forth...."

Independent of time, matter, and energy, and indeed, independent of a universe, existed Holy Divine Potential—the primordial Divine. At the eternal origins of out-of-time: Holy Potential within potential within potential ad infinitum—tracking to the forward edges of time.

At the embryonic stage of holiness, deep in the womb of nothingness, deep at the core of out-of-time, hinged on an indefinable and infinite circularity, there was an ascending holy metaphysical fire: Yearning, imploring, calling forth into the void.

[The concept of a primordial Divine has clear and direct precedent in the concept of the En Sof of Kabbalah.]

Traversing the Bridge

And as nature abhors a vacuum, Holy Potential abhors nothingness. This is a cosmic axiom.

Simultaneous with the eternal origins of out-of-time, an equilibrium of nothingness was thrown into disequilibrium by its own Holy Potential. Exploding and imploding. Echoing through this day and racing towards infinite time, Holy Potential screamed forth.

Genesis

Flowing from the Essence of the Divine, the infinite holy potential of the Divine demanded more expression. Among these elements were the potentials for creation of the universe, and within the latter the potentials for man to quest for his spiritual potentia1, as well as others, including mercy, love, truth, justice, beauty, and harmony. The holy potential core of the Divine demanded more than just potentia1. For the potentialities of Divine creation are inherent in the eternal Divine origins and in the Divine Essence itself.

At the eye of the primal cosmic storm, warping from out-of-time towards time, unzipping the cosmic void into positives and negatives, the infinite Divine blaze leapt forth. A creative supraconscious dynamic, transcending time, space, and eternity. Focusing its holy metaphysical force. Genesis.

and God divided the light from the darkness.

—Genesis 1:4

A holy dynamic flows forth through this day, tracing its origins to the inner core of the Divine. Beneath the eddies and swirls at the surface of the cosmic stream, beneath the deep and powerful major cosmic currents, from out of the epicenter of the holy, flows the deepest primal current—questing, beseeching, and indeed, screaming—for ultimate potentiality.

Quest for Potential^∞ - THE SACRED DYNAMIC

selected excerpts from book flap

Summa Metaphysica I

GOD AND EVIL

by DAVID BIRNBAUM

David Birnbaum’s God and Evil is a major philosophical study which systematically confronts the philosophical problem of evil, and the Holocaust in particular...

Summa Metaphysica I: God and Evil: Religious Man (1988) is the first of three books in Birnbaum’s landmark three-volume Summa Metaphysica series crafted over a twenty-six year period...

In Book #1 of the series, Birnbaum introduces the concepts of Quest for Potential^∞ (Q4P^∞), as well as God of Potential...

According to Birnbaum’s paradigm, Quest for Potential∞ drives Man and God/god and the Cosmos. Potential is the nexus. God of Potential is juxtaposed against Man of Autonomy-Freedom-Potential...

Combining modern and classic, rationalist and mystic themes...

The Summa series reshapes the contours of metaphysics, philosophy, and theology.

THE UNDERLYING COSMIC DYNAMIC

Holy quest for potential is the underlying core dynamic of the cosmic order.

Holy quest for potential—our parallel to the kabbalistic En Sof—is the “primal scream” of the cosmos...

Holy Potential, emanating through and from the Divine essence, radiates through the universe—questing, pulsating, exploding, reaching, energizing, expanding, in time and out-of-time...

It is at the core of the holy/natural drive of the cosmos. It is the primal engine of cosmic existence.

The Genesis Point: From there on through this day the majesty of creation seeks its maximal potential.

Life is daring. The cosmos strives not just for survival; it quests for its maximal potential...

Long before Prometheus stole fire from the gods to give to man, God grasped life from out of the void and created fire and man.

The universe seeks its maximum and optimal potential—inexorably. For this, we postulate, is its raison d’être.

“Holy Potentiality” is a thoroughly overarching dynamic, emanating from the infinitely holy through creation to the far reaches of the cosmic order. Soloveitchik notes: “He is the Lord of the hosts, who resides in every infinitessimal particle of creation and the whole universe is replete with His glory.”

At the Genesis Point, a Divine spark leapt forth. The spark initiates a cycle of becoming, creation, and rebirth. It is the core of this spiritual blaze of potentiality whose ultimate perfect achievement is a primal cosmic end. It is this transcendental flame which directly continues the spark of Life which the Divine infused through Primal Man.

The cosmic thrust for potential is man-centered. Within this constraint, the cosmos seeks its own perfection. The quests for spirituality and perfection, and the attendant quests for freedom, harmony, and beauty find their source in the metaphysical spark which actualized the cosmos. It was the origin of this quest of quests which bridged the gap from “nothingness” to “Somethingness.”

pegging-off of Summa I section 400.20

Updated focus on the 0-point

EVIL

So, why is there Evil at all?

I form the light, and create darkness;
I make peace, and create evil; I am the Lord,
Who has made all these things.

- Isaiah 45:5

Evil has its source in the good.

- Augustine

At eternal origins, there was just the 0-point.

At some point
Potential split 0 into -

Positives and Negatives,
Pluses and Minuses,
Matter and anti-Matter,
Good and Evil

To ignite a universe,
one must split 0

And if one splits 0,
there will thus of necessity
be Evil
in the mix

There would apparently
simply be no way
to create or update the universe
with no Evil in it; else that
would have been The Plan.

Do you insist on No Evil?
Then, No universe.

Do you wish a universe?
Then Evil will
be an actor.

The concept of the primordial 0 being split into PLUSES and MINUSES has resonance, whether from esoteric ancient strains, through Summa Metaphysica I (1988), and then through contemporary (21^st Century) Quantum Mechanics.

See "IT from BIT" (1990) theoretical physics hypothesis of Princeton’s iconic John Wheeler (1911-2008), and developed via his intellectual heir, MIT's Quantum guru Seth Lloyd. See, in particular, Lloyd's (seminal) Programming the Universe, 2006, Knopf. See in further focus Lloyd's Chapter 3: The Computational Universe (subsection: The Story of the Universe).

So, in 2006 Lloyd's quantum mechanics 21st Century physics fortuitously makes an appearance just after Summa Metaphysica II (2005) and Summa Metaphysica I (1988); his work buttress aspects of Potentialsm Theory's metaphysics (theodicy and Eternal Origins components), which, in turn provides philosophical buttress for aspects of the God of Israel handed-down by Moses at Sinai (c.1250 BCE).

more theological texture

The midrash (Jewish exegesis, parable and lore)
has the (omnipotent) Divine
weeping over Evil

Thus, a Divine not quite "omnipotent"
and not quite
impervious to Evil & suffering

REPRISE

Quick Overview

One Proposed Working Hypothesis

Potentialism Theory hypothesizes that if we introduce one (conceptualized) metaphysical concept - Quest for Potential∞ - as the eternal 'driver' of the Cosmic Order, then entire inter-related clusters of hitherto unresolved issues across science, religion, metaphysics and philosophy - including (but not limited to) cosmology, cosmogony, theogony, theodicy, teleology and evolutionary biology - are all simultaniously lanced.

The fusion of my Potentialism Theory - with MIT LLoyd's (information communication & computation) quantum mechanics - provides a quite-powerful proposition: A seamless A-Z metaphysics/physics/cosmology. Sort of what many people have been seeking for a long time.

A well-vetted and quite-possibly correct simultaneous solution - a fully integrated,all-embracing metaphysics / new paradigm - is perhaps something worth evaluating. One concept (Quest for Potential∞) resolving conundrums across a dozen+ fields? If essentially on the mark, it would indeed transform the world as we know it.

That is what SummaMetaphysica/Potentialism has proposed - starting with the focus on theodicy in Summa I: God and Evil in 1988.

All data-points vector towards the theory being correct. After 28+ years of public vetting, not a single flaw has been discerned in it. And as we know from 7th grade mathematics, elegant possible simultaneous solutions inevitably have a way of turning out to be correct.

Potentialism proposes that our universe indeed has a direction (Quest for Potential∞). Advocates of an aimless and random universe have been having a public nervous breakdown over the theory since God and Evil (Summa I) was published by KTAV twenty-eight years - and six printings - ago in 1988.

Potentialism Theory is, as well, simple yet powerful (i.e. infinitely nested). And indeed, to add irony to the potentially pivotal theory, its proposed key to the cosmic code - Quest for Potential∞ - has always been 'hiding in plain sight'.

The theory can be viewed through a religious lens (see Summa Metaphysica I: God and Evil); a spiritual lens (see Summa Metaphysica II: God and Good) or a secular lens (see Summa Metaphysica III: The Transcendent Dynamic).

The theory shatters various 'idols' along the way. The world is not flat, nor is the universe random - by any means. The universe may be far more dynamic and fully-integrated than hitherto suspected, to put matters mildly.

Various entrenched 'priesthoods' - whether in academe or otherwise - will diss any truly threatening paradigm - and will fight rearguard battles, sometimes vicious ones, to protect their power prerogatives. But these reactionary efforts against a formidable new paradigm will ultimately fail.

The Random Universe formulation is simply old-fashioned fundamentalist and strident hard-line Atheism masked as science.

The 14th-16th Century Vatican persecuting theorists for propounding helio-centrism, is now replaced by a hard-line Randomnist hierarchy in England (globally) undermining the careers of directional-universe theoreticians.

A zealous religious Inquisition is replaced by a zealous antireligious inquisition;
Bogus Middle Ages Church doctrine is replaced by bogus 21st Century hard-line Random Universe doctrine.

In each case, too much power leading directly to ruinous and implacable hard-line doctrine - and from thence onto destruction of truth and lives.

Ultimately, the most powerful currency prevails in commerce, and the most powerful ideas/concepts prevail in the history of ideas. Thomas S. Kuhn discussed the fierce institutional resistance faced by paradigm challenges. See his 1962 classic, The Structure of Scientific Revolutions.

One can argue that my little Harvard degree is not in philosophy - or one can look at the overwhelming evidence behind the proposition - and 'listen to the music'.

I invite you to examine the hypothesis and expand your minds and your souls.

Sincerely,

David B.

Wrapping-up

www.Closing1000.com

Has the Entrenched Randomness Clique Strangled Global Debate?

The Fall of Randomness

subtext: the ramifications of
the Randomness clique's abuse of power

The m.o.:
From the shadows, their 'leadership clique' has rationalized a pattern of
ongoing nefarious antics/gambits to destroy competing theorists.

unable to compete 'on the merits'
the clique deploys academic thuggery -
with slander, defamation, and misinformation
as consistently central to its messaging
- in targeting opposing theorists for destruction

The net result:
Institutionalizing the strangulation (by the Randomness clique) of global debate
as (somehow) acceptable academic practice & norm

extra-legal modus operandi
one cannot assert that their m.o. is a legal one
Is the closest descrition - 'racketeering & corrupt' ?

a few medieval ogres calling their shots
suppress all debate * crush all dissent * destroy all dissenters

actually a fundamentalist/hard-line/militant/nihilistic cult
masquerading as a scientific theory

radicalizing classic Atheism
- from (scientifically tenable) ideological opposition to classic Creationist God,
into (scientifically untenable) hard-line Atheism -
with strident opposition to any 'direction' whatsoever in the universe
as core doctrine.

In the mix,
Their stratagem conveniently aims to toxify competing theorists (typically American),
and attempts to sideline these American theories (typically 'directional universe').

The 'cover':
slap-on-the-back jocularity and pompous self-righteous (misplaced) arrogance

The internal (delusional) mantra:
"We are Imperial" - and we alone - and unilaterally -
will decide what is acceptable academic discourse

Conflating an anti-religious ideology
- with academic teachings

As 90%+ of science academicians in England happen to conveniently be hard-line Atheists, they will merge a fundamentalist ideology (stridently anti-theist), with a (false) scientific hunch (an anti-directional universe); they will then advocate Randomness/Aimlessness - as (alleged) science.
The two - a strident fundamentalist ideology and (false) a hunch - will become one and the same: the (convoluted) 'science' of the Atheist British academics.

the putative 'side benefit':
Presumably the Randomness clique would get to divvy-up global academic influence -
with 'legacy' and sundry accolades in-the-mix....

the ancillary toxic gambits:
the 'gaming' of Google and Wikipedia

teaching the wrong course
The Randomness clique should not be teaching Cosmology;
they should be teaching a course which they actually truly understand:
"Fascism for Beginners" : An Introductory Course

does not actually qualify as science
should not really even be brought up in the Science Department courses;
sort of, a wrong turn in the history of science;
simply not serious

hijacked and mutated classic Atheism
mutated Atheism from: disbelievers in classic God >
rabid and millitant opponents of any 'direction' to the universe

Zombie DNA
we come, we destroy; darkness trumps light; despair trumps hope

We are the nihilist Randomness cultists

Three racketeering identity-masked ghouls on pinnacle British campuses
are allowed to decree verdicts of academic Life or Death
on cosmology/philosophy academics across America ???
- while Cambridge - Oxford - Imperial
hear no evil; see no evil ?
- while cutting-edge American theorists are conveniently undermined
and/or systematically destroyed?
- And while The Chronicle (DC-based) always 'happens' to deliver
the core (often virulently) negativity attack? - which can conveniently and readily
be parlayed by the ghouls' acolytes into a high-profile destructive Guardian article and/or
Wikipedia piece to aid & abet the steady academic asphyxiation of the target theorist?

a (very) small secretive, psychologically twisted clique
- dictates (quack) 'science' to the world?

- by neutralizing/eliminating competing theorists via -
secretly commissioned toxic articles; bare-knuckled academic blackmail;
and gaming Google/Wikipedia?

The core Randomness hierarchy permanently in hiding?

Three thuggish from-the-shadows misfits...

Self-appointed to play
judge-jury-executioner...

Sadistic cowards...

[NOTE. My family exited Berlin in 1938; we have seen these fascist freaks before...]

The collateral damage:
# a 100+ year (at least as far back as 1900) freeze of scientific advance across multiple fields
# a betrayal of the world's trust in British academe
# the unhinging of England's venerable core academic integrity

But, as noted in the above Scroll Down, Randomness - as front & center - now falls on both key fronts: Cosmology and Evolution

And, all the king's horses
and all the king's men

Couldn't put Humpty Dumpty
back together again

	David Birnbaum, Architect, Potentialism Theory
	“Birnbaum's masterpiece work Summa Metaphysica is perhaps the first offering of a new school of spiritual potentialism.” —Rabbi Benjamin Blech, Yeshiva University “An original and in this reader’s opinion, very promising point of view. ... the author gathers a philosophically coherent and, in the end, highly modern insight ... He appropriately describes it as a unified metaphysics within the constraints of Jewish doctrine, consistent with its historical development, and consistent with secular scientific thought ...” —Professor Louis Dupré, Yale University “Birnbaum’s Summa Metaphysica II: God and Good is a major intellectual triumph and potential conceptual breakthrough ... it endeavors to weave It-from-Bit Theory into a unified metaphysics - Birnbaum’s (new) School of Potentialism.” —Scientist John Archibald Wheeler, Princeton University “Remarkable and profound, Summa Metaphysica II rounds out the author’s powerful and original Cosmic Womb of Potential metaphysics ... Has the author indeed founded a new field — Potentialism? ... Did we all miss the obvious all along?” —Claude Lévi-Strauss, Paris “If iconoclast private scholar Birnbaum is the founder of the metaphysical School of Potentialism via his ‘infinite divine potential’ construct, then Daniel Khalil is his foremost Modern Orthodox Jewish explicator.” —Rabbi Marvin Tokayer, former spiritual leader of the Jewish community of Japan “Iconoclast Birnbaum is a daring and dynamic intellect ... His avantgarde Potentialism may turn out to be totally wrong — or may turn out to be the ‘irresistible force’ ... perhaps best not to bet against the fascinating hypothesis.” —Emeritus Professor of Philosophy John Hospers, USC
