A new and revised essay explaining this idea is available in the tab at the top titled THE IDEA please take a few minutes and read it. Thank you.

Importance of Lifes Aspects in Reality

Here is a post off the Happy Colors blog that might help give a feel for the relationship reality has to morals, emotions and life.  These things surely must be controlled by natural forces and as such they should be able to be defined and calculated.

Happy sez-  Though out the changing reality of our lives things of importance do not change but things of relative importance change as do the importance of things. When you are a year old your mothers love is important and your rattle is important but if you lost one it would of course be the rattle that was least important and when you're twenty-one your mothers love is important and that new Corvette is important but of course the Corvette is not as important as your mothers love.  Neither the car nor the rattle are of any importance relative to your mother and the importance of the rattle has changed to the car.

That leaves the conclusion that many of the important things in life, if not all, are constant though out the reality of our changing lives, while many things in our lives take on an importance because of the circumstances of the moment, when the circumstance has changed the importance has changed.

This relation ship between reality and value extend to emotions and morality among other things, for it is the laws of morality that gives, that defines that value and it is emotions that express that value.

Money and love  might serve in one aspect as an example of that.  There are important things in your life, valid in all aspects of your life in all reality's, things like love, like faith, like freedom then there are the things in your life that mean a great deal to you depending on the circumstance, things like a home and the cherished legacy of that home, things like money and the things that money can buy.  (Money always seems to be the most important unimportant thing). Though money may be awful important to us throughout our life,  I'd be willing to bet my soul that when we are lying there dying breathing our last that money will have no meaning - but love will.

Deglazing With Wine

My wife and I were making a grocery list and I mentioned I needed some wine, even though my wife and I don't drink I go through a bottle of wine every month or so in the kitchen.  I do most of the cooking and usually use a little wine to deglaze the pan just as I am finished, adding flavor and a moist glaze.  This led us to a conversation about how much wine to use and when - which is something that varies each time according to the pan - what's in it, how much, how moist, how much glaze is on the pan, how hot it is and etc., etc..  The correct answer is of course, just use a squish or a plop or whatever according to the pan,  according to what the conditions, the circumstance is in the pan at that time - that's the frame of reference you use to judge how much wine to put in and that is the reality of the moment, a given reality that has just popped into existence and will pop out of existence when the action is taken and the circumstance no longer exists. Reality itself seems to be a collection of these given realities winking in and out of existence as bubbles in a foam. This of course begs another question - does the sum of the parts equal the whole? 

Reality is a Foam

I want to talk a little bit about reality: both  "given" realities  and "non-given" realities.  I use these terms because of ease and because of the way I happen to think, that does not mean that these terms are correct or that other and better terms may be more apply applied.

 In discussing my idea I am usually referring to a given reality, a reality born of a certain circumstance, a certain frame of reference and existing as long as those circumstances are in place.  The nature of the circumstance or frame of reference that creates that given reality  is of limitless possibilities as it may be any thing in the universe: it may be physical or concepts like time and space that translate to reality or it may be morality, emotions and everything in between, in every combination possible.  It is what it is. This is the reality that we live in, a given reality of ourselves our universe and the things that affect us.  It is this, a given reality that I believe we will eventually be able to define and calculate   And when it's over it's over just winking out of existence and budding off into some other reality, perhaps carrying the heritage forward in different ways.
When we look at the fundamental reality,  non-given reality, that  amalgam of all possible future and past "given realities" winking in and out of existence, we see that reality at the deepest most fundamental level is really a type of foam.

Reality of any nature, given or non-given is of course a concept; it does not occupy space nor time but can not only exist in and outside of both, but can in many ways define both. 

Bullet Points of the Idea

I would like to highlight the main points of this idea:
These are explained more in the tab at the top of the blog called brief overview - again that is more detail but is only a brief over view. If interested I will try to start posting more a little later in the year if possible, health and time permitting or you can contact me be leaving a word on this blog or better yet my Facebook page or my blog Happy Colors

• There is a moral force in the universe that is governed by natural laws 
• This moral force is the same through out the known universe and originated with the other known forces, perhaps at the big bang.
• Those moral laws are able to be mathematically defined and calculated
• There are moral values that are constant and there are other moral values that are variable depending on the circumstance or frame of reference
• That frame of reference gives you a perspective and perception which gives you a reality
• That reality through that perspective is able to be mathematically defined and calculated
• The validity of a moral issue within that defined, or given reality is able to be mathematically defined and calculated following the natural moral laws of the universe                                                                                     

Morality, E.T., and Us

 Living things are different from one another not just in the physical aspects but also in personality,character and instincts, yet all living things follow within there own species, their own sets of standards and behavior, their own sense of morality from their own perspective, their own reality.  These different moral values or standards are not just some hap-hazard circumstances of fate but follow overriding natural laws that can be defined and calculated like the other forces of nature such the electromagnetic force or gravity. It would only stand to reason that these moral laws permeate the universe and that all living things anywhere in the universe would be subject to these same overriding moral laws governing the moral aspects of their lives.

An Idea

I am starting this blog to try to bring attention to an idea I had in the late 1960s.  My thought was that moral values came in two types; one variable depending on the situation the other constant in all situations or circumstances and that they could be mathematically defined and calculated, this of course lead to the realization  that you must be able to calculate reality as well or else it would be like trying to tie up a shadow or rope the wind.  At first I thought that this would be an imposable task, but after many years and decades of technological advances, especially in computers I believe that while the task may be complicated, I realize that the idea of how to do it may be really quite simple.  When I first came up this idea it was to enhance our system of government which is vitally needed, but now with the coming explosion in Artificial Intelligence the ability to provide these coming new brains and minds a mathematical definition of  morality and natures laws that can be computed in all situations or within all frames of reference may be just as important.  I have published in the tabs a brief overview  of the basic idea.  Over the coming weeks and months I will publish a lot more of this idea, and hopefully it will spark enough interest to enough mathematicians and scientist that this system for defining a given reality and the moral values within that reality can itself become a new reality for the world.
