Concerning Nanotechnology
The atomic force microscope (AFM) and the scanning tunneling microscope (STM) probe atoms. These microscopes have sensitive tips to manipulate atoms. We enter the realm of a billionth of a meter (nanometer) to reconstruct material. Properties of matter happen to change when the nanometer scale is augmented to bulk scales. Also, nano-properties can be inserted into bulk materials to add new…
Concerning Condemnations of 1277
Condemnations of 1277. I again speak on my own power and not with the seal of a Canonical authority. I do not think this Condemnations is an upheld work in the Catholic church, but it was organized by the Bishop of Paris just before the year 1277, named Stephen in the introduction. Yet not every utterance of an Apostolic successor has canonical weight. Stephen did not seem to have any trust for…
Concerning Language2
Le Primier Livre (La prim-eer liv-ra) Here are my notes on French grammar. [Premiere partie (Pra-me-rr par-tee); La grammaire française (la gram-mer fran-ses)] Chapitre Un (cha-pee-trr ah); I pick up the science of communication. The cause and theory of language and words are the same as “Concerning Language1”, but the method in this concern is different. Instead of Latin, I use French. I…
Considering Legal Element of Religion
Reference: Canon Law Contents (vatican.va) I compared resolution vs promise. I define resolutions as a firm decision to oneself and promise as a binding declaration that is public. “Dialogue and prayer are right now my resolutions–[or are they as tantamount as promises?]. Faith to the Catholic life and mission is my assumed resolution [or rather it seems my promise]. In accepting the Catholic…
Concerning Change in Political Thought Section from "Histories"
Change In Political Thought. At the geographical height of the Church, a thirteenth century Scholastic debate on human nature and agency, which was between the Franciscan and Dominican universities, perhaps incidentally, led to the dissent away from the Aristotelian system of virtues. The debate was, essentially, the new philosophy of Nominal-ism, which was being advanced by the English Friar…
Concerning Councils Section from "Histories"
Introduction: Twenty-one councils have been ecumenical, belonging to the economy and definition of the universal Church, from the fourth century under Pope Sylvester I and Emperor Constantine, to the Vatican II of the twentieth century under Popes John XXIII and Paul VI. Councils: They are Nicaea I (ad 325), Constantinople I (381), Ephesus (431), Chalcedon (451), Constantinople II (553),…
Concerning Extra Questions about Brain
The extraction of the brain of one man out of the body and inserted into another would NOT transfer the original mind into the other man. Sense a brain is organ, so long as it is replaced by another organ or electric simulation of the organ, it is not essential to the man or his uniformity and substance, which belongs to the mind to contain. I hypothesize, the extracted brain, even transplanted…
Concerning Deeper Than Matter: Looking Upward
Why, would a material process allow aberration from the material, as if there were another realm to “aberrate” to. Yet there exists such a facilitation in us or faculty to leave the material world. Our minds are not limited to the physical location that we happen to be in. Though our eyes are restricted to what is in front of us, we can think beyond the surface of things. Though music is just…
Concerning the Abstract God
God is not in this world, nor discoverable like a thing in the world. When we say God, we do not imagine the name corresponding to some “thing”; but the designation is acting like an invitation into the moral world and depths of human being. The name encapsulates into one character, through literary abstraction, all human virtues. Sense God is the essence “to be” (ST. I. q. 4. a. 2)), then he…
Concerning Alcohol
The specific alcohol for drinking is composed of ethanol, which is chemically formulated as C2H6O. It comes efficiently from fermenting grains. The purpose of alcohol in a body is to release hormones, dopamine, and it stimulates the adrenal glands. It depresses the nervous system and impairs the rational faculty in a body. With depressing a person, it impairs neural synapses in the brain, which…
Concerning Order of the Universe
The concepts of the relative and quantum Is everything disordered at the deepest level (ie the quantum) except until our perception translates things into order? But then what would account the possibility of order and how would anything have evolved into any order or perception? I still have not been told a link between the quantum and the relative which wherein seems to entail an ordering…
Concerning Profit
Notes from For Profit: A History of Corporations by William Magnuson. [1] In ancient Rome, corporations bought tax rights from the republic. The society of corporations sustained the material needs of the republic and controlled money flow, because the society was established before the bureaucracy. Either by dealing with corporations or through its own bureaucracy a republic has to administer…
Concerning Cell and DNA
Notes on The Song of the Cell By Siddhartha Mukherjee Why was ancient Roman (or “Galenic”) anatomical doctrines so wanting of improvement by Vesalius. There was to be an advancement in Optics; yet this has not outright been credited as the cause of Versalius’ specific improvements. In the following seventeenth century, Leeuwenhoek used his homemade fabric’s microscope on water droplets and on…
Concerning Anthropometrics
Let beauty belong to the substance of a thing and not exactly the material. Beauty is not in materia, which is conformed around and ordered below the substance; it is in essentia. The body is below the soul. Yet the regulation of the body conduces to health in the operation of man’s higher faculty. So, if we have no confusion about the place of the body, I proceed to present metrics and an…
Concerning Prerequisites of [Edificial] Construction
Prerequisite to any artificial or edificial construction is understanding of the “Categories”, which include the foundation of human understanding. Also prerequisite for a person to have are normal functionality and common sense: a person obviously requires vision, hearing and hand-eyed coordination to engage in constructive activities. [theory of mental templates] A person must have…
Concerning Theology
“Ita est”, so it is. A philosopher is religioned to his value, what he worthships. But what is the summum bonum (Latin “highest good”) which is to be valued principally: the Sophia whom a philosopher is seeking dialogue with: the “Logos” (Greek Λόγος, “word”, John 1:1) that demands the philosophic intellect and directs his reasoning. Not a bonum materiale which is below even the philosopher in…
Concerning Conversion Before the Pauline Theology
One might want to proceed into Pauline Theology, following a graceful curiosity, and following the progression of Sacred Scripture. But this cannot be before we know about the conversion of Saul [to Paul]. We realize the theology is from a conversion: what then is conversion [at the substantial level in a man rather than just a material reaction]? Conversion can be described in context of a…
