E-PS - Thinking Anew It has taken Mother Nature perhaps fourteen billion years, and perhaps universes prior, to evolve us.

Are we to fail to transcend primal intellect stage of development - the intellect of the primal senses stage, which expresses a space and time world .... of observer and object .... and categorical- -definite- -static concepts such as a stone or a tree .... which premises in turn informed Plato and his system featuring categorical forms, such as good, bad, tall short, etc.

Now, through high intellect awareness, E-PS has emerged, expressing: 'Forces' determine effects .... indefinite- -dynamic and multi-faceted ... a dynamic and diverse world; Effect, through such 'forces', rather than an observer and object-level world- -organism.

Socrates: "The unexamined life is not worth living".

How much time and effort should be invested in the software between one's ears ...

Academia may be stuck in the incoherence of Plato's system for two thousand four hundred years.

That may be a fairly good excuse to just give up and drift as programmed.

But how to score an organism that goes through life without checking whether the software between its ears is ... Windows 1 or Windows 10 ... level of evolution- -development .... an organism that passively accepts its cultural indoctrination ... that has more important priorities ...

If one is free of academia and the tyranny of orthodoxy ... at last ... perhaps one has the opportunity to think at one's own pace and on whatever issues one pleases ... with better potential for progress.

My new, high-intellect, modern information informed E-PS may be of interest. If so, see how coherent, true-to-life and beautiful it is ... how it fares in tension with your cultural indoctrination - in so far as the Western world is concerned.

Other systems emerged at the approx. the same time as Plato's formulation: In India: Hinduism and Buddhism. In China: Confucianism and Taoism.

In the land of al Kinana, approx. 1,300 years earlier, Abraham set forth the idea of one (big) god rather than many gods.

See how similar E-PS and Taoism are.

The USA is in dire financial, etc., straits but in the Nov. 2024 election a great political revolution occurred.

The world is in dire straits at a more fundamental level: A revolution in Philosophy is overdue.

" [] that's pretty much what the schools are like, I think: they reward discipline and obedience, and they punish independence of mind. If you happen to be a little innovative, or maybe you forgot to come to school one day because you were reading a book or something, that's a tragedy, that's a crime-because you're not supposed to think, you're supposed to obey, and just proceed through the material in whatever way they require." - Chomsky

"Schools are intended to produce...formulaic human beings whose behaviour can be predicted and controlled. To a very great extent schools succeed in doing this, but...in a national order in which the only "successful" people are independent, self-reliant, confident, and individualistic...the products of schooling are...irrelevant. Well-schooled people are irrelevant. They can sell film and razor blades, push paper and talk on telephones, or sit mindlessly before a flickering computer terminal, but as human beings they are useless. Useless to others and useless to themselves." - John Taylor Gatto, Dumbing us Down

"No one can build you the bridge on which you, and only you, must cross the river of life. There may be countless trails and bridges and demigods who would gladly carry you across; but only at the price of pawning and forgoing yourself. There is one path in the world that none can walk but you. Where does it lead? Don't ask, walk!" -Friedrich Nietzsche, Schopenhauer as Educator
