ETHIC ART : THE CANON OF THE WOR(L)D

"Love each other as
I have loved you"
Law of Social Evolution. Gospel. Jesus.
Linguistic, survival ethics
Ethical, survival
knowledge is natural to all species and his linguistic, informative organs,
who know what is bad=extinctive, and what is good=reproductive for his species.
This is the reason why languages exist as subjective visions of reality: their
information helps the body-species that hosts the brain-language to survive.
This applies to all languages that man perceives.
Indeed, all
languages, all forms of knowledge are relativistic, classifying reality into
good or bad=extinctive.
For example
in 'image languages,' our linguistic eyes and brains create a distinction between
'ugly' and 'beautiful,' parallel to the ethics of evil=ugly=extinctive and good=beautiful,
natural to verbal thought. We might say that beauty is the moral of the eye.
So we find
insects very ugly because when we die they eat us and you imagine how painful
that will be for our cells... We dislike ugly machines, and warfare fields.
They are an image of the inferno. Since we die in wars.
Yet I am sure
that an ant will find its ant-queen the most beautiful species of the Universe,
and a living tank of the 21st century will love the itching of radioactive plutonium
in its metal-body.
So 'scientific,
relativistic, survival Ethics' exists also in image languages.
In a relative
Universe good and evil are relative concepts depending of the anti-truth or
truth we believe in. We might hold the hunter or the victim's point of view.
What is good for one is bad for the other. Yet because to survive we have to
feed, and to feed we have to kill, evil-extinctive hunters are natural to the
Universe.
Evil is that
what denies man and destroys him. Hate for extinctive=evil species is not subjective
but subconscious science. Such knowledge is imprinted in the very essence of
the way information is processed by the being: hate for evil is the law of survival
of any species.
It is also
scientific to defend yourself against evil: species attack their relative ['evil'] species that might kill them, as matter attacks antimatter that
can disrupt the space-time ecosystem. The reaction is immediate, instinctive,
pure science of Survival.
We can create
truths and anti-truths for each language of perception. They will define what
is evil or is not, for that language and its species.

Perception
is relative and selfish, because it is used to enhance survival. All forms create
their informative mirrors of the Universe [what we call linguistic knowledge] according to a moral rule, by which things which are extinctive
are degraded and perceived as negative, ugly forms. While all things which are
positive for our survival are highlighted and desired. Since information is
not only relative but moral. It is caused by self-choices of each species, regarding
the goodness or relative badness of an experience, for its feeding and reproductive
needs, for its will. So please do not think this web or any verbal, ethical
statement of any humanistic religion is not 'scientific'. It is as scientific
as Darwinian evolution. Both belong to the same body of facts.
Informative
words, ethics and religion, are concerned with the survival of the individual
and human species, and cannot be taken lightly.
In the graph we see also how languages 'value'
things through + [survival] and - [extinctive] concepts. Money as a language
do value things through 'prices' according to positive [expensive] and negative
[cheap] values. That is the essence of the information that money carries. Yet
it just happens that 'evil metal-species' extinctive of mankind have the highest
prices, which go for weapons, while good human goods that make man to survive
have the lowest prices.
The salary
of a million of missionaries would not pay a Hydrogen bomb... So money is evil
in human terms, because it promotes things that kill off mankind. Money makes
weapons the highest goods. We will return to that.
This is a
contradiction. Why is the evaluation of money precisely the opposite of the
way words value reality? Only one explanation is possible: Money and Words are
themselves opposite languages belonging to opposite species that kill each other,
like matter and anti-matter.
Money is the language of information
of metal
Words are
the language of information of man...
So because
they cater two different organic ecosystems, The Metal-Earth, and History, their
values, and the species they develop and reproduce are different.
It is the
paradox of history: money, its values and the species it reproduces are extinguishing
history, our values, and our species. The amazing speed at which that ecosystem
of Metal substitutes the ecosystem of Human Carbolife is worrisome.
Only a process
of death, of 'collapse' of informative and energetic networks in a body, can
be compared to the 400 years of collapse of energetic nature, and verbal power
in the body of History, caused by company-mothers and machines.
We conclude
that the body of History is dying. It does so at the same speed that a cellular
body dies: in a matter of hours in 'relative time' to the existence of the body
of History.
Words have
lost all battles to guide humankind since Companies of Gunboats started the
'Industrial Evolution' and controlled human governments with monetary orders.
People only obey today monetary orders. Human cells of History are at the mercy
of the 'invading language.'
Today another
type of information network has also evolved on the Earth: digital languages
based on numbers, with a different structure from verbal languages. What they
mean to the evolution of History? Why are digital networks and sciences historically
opposed to verbal networks and religions?
Since religions
concluded earlier in his analysis of the Universe that digital languages tend
to evolve metal-species more than human species. They are the backbone of economic
ecosystems which reproduce weapons and machines that kill 'the organism of god',
the world of nature, and social harmony, through war, and ethical corruption,
due to money.
Verbal history Vs digital economics
We conclude
that the fundamental divide of human history is between the age of Words, when
verbal thought was the dominant language of information in history, [150.000
ago, 1602 AD] and the age of digital
thought, when money and science, two languages of digital nature, replaced verbal
thought as the languages that direct and create reality - now a reality of machines.
Now, machines are top predators promoted by the scientific method of clock-measuring
of time and telescope-perception, by companies that reproduce machines and lobbies
that control political power. Those structures replace the verbal, ethic visions
of man as the center of the universe.
The digital
age of history is also the age of extinction of human history, since the eco[nomic]system
now belongs to a new species: metalife. The age of verbal truths and human truths
no longer exists. In 1602, stock companies with paper money started the evolution
of machines. They conquered with money, the Dutch Government, the English Government,
Europe and America. The world became a bio-economy whose aim now is to reproduce
machines, to work on them and to consume them for money. This means the end
of bio-history, of Wor[l]ds [worlds made with words to the image and resemblance
of man] of human beings as top predators and creators of the future.
You can compare
the process to any death of a cell, a social organism, attacked by a virus,
with different genetic information. The virus of history is money and science,
and their digital languages. They have taken command of our information, and
substituted love religions that made men the center of the Universe, and tried
to build a human paradise, of human goods, to the image and resemblance of man,
by their own genetic code: digital orders given by companies that oblige men
to reproduce machines, and evolutionary orders given by science, that evolve
the 'virus' species, the machines, and metal-Heads, chips, computers, cameras,
and robots, that once assembled, within the cell of History, will extinguish
us. Then the Metal-earth, the explosion of reproductive machines, the explosion
of the virus that have killed the cell and reproduced with the help of that
cell, will take place...
A graph of the paradox of History:
Max H[e] [human evolution]=Min M[e]
[metal evolution]
We can project
the Paradox of History, in a graph of
evolutionary coordinates around a point of balance, or string of Survival of
History. At both sides of the point of balance where neither man or metal would
evolve further, we find two regions, one of Max. Metal evolution and Min Human
evolution, or region of extinction. And one of Max human evolution and minimal
metal evolution, where the ecosystem of nature dominates.
Those 3 regions
give us a map of the 3 ages of man, with a mean point of classic History, ideally
placed in the classic age of verbal thought [700 BC; 700 AD]. Since informative
time, evolutionary time has two possible arrows, towards further evolution or
devolution, history has two possible paths of future.
We can control
metal-evolution and make history immortal. Or we can evolve metal [the present
arrow of future] and become extinguished in that future. The creation of machines is as all universal
processes of evolution theoretically reversible. Thus by controlling the radiations
of weapons and money, and by evolving the informative verbal mind of man, and
its energy base of human goods, and Nature, History could be reversed in favor
of human thought:

According
to Hesiode, a Greek poet, History is divided in different ages, the first age
without hard metal, was the Golden Age of man. In the Golden age, men were immortal
and lived in peace in their lands, producing human goods... Then it came Silver
that multiplied the quantity of money and corrupted Humans. And then it came
the Bronze age, of warriors... Finally the present age when men never rest,
working and suffering all day, arrived. Kung-Tse also talks around the -500BC
of the end of the age of Harmony, as iron weapons multiplied. All cultures will
suffer this devolution of social structures as technology multiplies and weapons
radiate.
Since metal
history feeds in mankind, in social evolution, in ethics, in evolution of the
Wor[l]d, to control metal should be the priority of Politicians.
The event of history as a wave of forms fluctuates between two relative
phases of the Earth, carbolife and metalife. With the arrival of mathematical
science we entered the last phase of CarboLife History, the phase of life extinction
by scientific machines. The age of clocks, companies and science - the digital
age - is paradoxically the age of verbal rhetoric, of verbal fiction, of obsolete
Laws and false religions [nationalisms, sects]. This balkanization of wor[l]d
power gives total power to money and weapons, and its guiding language , mathematics.
It is the 3rd age of mankind. The age in which our biological languages are
extinguished by the metal languages of science; and our bodies, are extinguished
by machines of war.
Human wor[l]ds Vs digital languages,
animetals and machines
We can therefore
summarize History as a fight between two species, for the control of the Earth,
the human species and his verbal languages of perception and control of time,
and the animetal species, and his digital languages and machines of perception
and control of time.
It might be
truth that animetals, their machines and digital cultures have won the battle
of history. It might be truth that today all the classic religious and artistic
civilizations of mankind, have been dominated by the global 'digital civilization'
of western Europe, born of the marriage of Go[l]d religions [Aaronism, Anglican
Religion, Calvinism], and mathematical religions [science]. Yet this does not
change the fact, that from the point of view of man, of the human truth, those
cultures based in art and human truths where the cultures of mankind. The culture
of digital truths to which now all belong, is the culture of machines, a culture
alien to our species. Only the 'verbal, survival, social stupidity' of the Jewish-Germanic
culture that controls today our minds, its 'suicidal instincts', its complete
ignorance of the laws of social evolution and collective survival, explains
that History has taken such a wrong path. Neither the Jewish or the Germanic
cultures have ever understood that survival is superior to information, than
harmony and sensorial human perception is better that perception through machines.
That racial
religions are a primitive version of the social religion of mankind. Because
they are primitive, not evolved ideologies, as economics today is, those who
obey them do not survive.
Indeed, if
the best informative systems survive in the bio-logical universe, this also
happens in History. So the tribes who believe in primitive non-social ideologies
that confront them against all other social groups do not survive. They die
in wars and Holocausts, confronted against all other human social organisms.
It is indeed remarkable to notice that among the nations of Europe, the German
nation, which was by far the most populated and strongest nation at the beginning
of the modern age, today is the only one that has not reproduced and created
a global linguistic-cultural empire. While the smallest nation, Portugal, which
did not sustain a racist ideology of society, spread his culture in five continents.
Again, if we consider the tragic history of the Jewish people, the oldest culture
of mankind, and compare it with the Chinese culture, highly evolved in his understanding
of the Universe, it is remarkable how the Chinese have multiplied, and today
are over a billion people, while the Jewish who did not evolve beyond the primitive,
racial level of religious thought, have been massacred by other cultures systematically,
and today are a meager 12 million people... unnecessarily confronted to a billion
Muslims in Asia...
The question
is, could mankind and his primitive cultures evolve in time, and integrate the
different human nations into a single social organism, able to control the growing
social body of the Metal-Earth, and its networks of machines? Or will mankind
fight unending, childish wars of thought, compete among nations, and evolve
weapons and financial networks till we become slaves of machines?
Primitive
cultures unable to evolve socially, have paid in the past that ignorance with
unending deaths, wars and holocausts, and they will pay that attitude of despise
to human nature and the laws of bio-logical societies, with their and our collective
extinction... unless they change their culture, before the awakening of metalife.
Since in the past is written our future, we could look at the past of history
to learn the things we should not repeat.
Indeed, in
the same manner that the informative brain of the body, or a doctor, takes care
of our cellular health, the informative masters of history - economists and
entrepreneurs of monetary information; politicians, priests and laws of verbal
information - should maintain history health taking care of those networks.
How they did it in the past, when words ruled history, is the theme of this
chapter.
That was precisely what religious people did in those historic organisms they ruled properly, according to the laws of social evolution.
The age of wor[l]d networks
We are human
beings, and human beings is what truly should matter to us. Yet we are also
a biological species that lives in an ecosystem, the Earth, and fights in that
ecosystem for survival, and reproduction of human beings, for the creation of
an ecosystem good to human beings.
This is natural
to all species and all biological species do try to transform its ecosystem
to its image and resemblance.
Problem is
that only certain species, that we might call top predators achieve those goals.
Indeed. There are many species on Earth. Each of those species we might say
plays the same game. To reproduce their offspring, and then to create networks
of energy and information, ecosystems where the species lives better than any
other species, receiving its natural energy and information.
So has tried
man for most of the past 1.000.000 years. Till the original sin... till he worshipped
a new species, the scientific machine, and believed on it, more than he believed
on himself. History of man, transforming, terraforming the Earth's crust to
suit his needs of energy and information according to his natural biological
language, verbal thought, is an old process, only aborted in the past centuries
by the new ecosystem of metal. It might be interesting to follow that golden
age of man, in the beginnings of History.
2. The birth of verbal gods. Subjective and objective religions
Neolithic societies and artistic societies
Humans kept
evolving that social organism, and its 3 elements, human cells, networks of
verbal information, and networks of tools. The result was the creation of a
series of instruments able to store, and process verbal information and human
energy. Those instruments were writing and art, agricultural tools, and weapons
to hunt other species, and process animal life into food.
It is the
beginning of the Neolithic, and the cultures of human goods that came after
that age. The age of words... in which the goal of a harmonic planet in which
men were predators of life, and masters of the universe was achieved, using
the nervous systems of history, religions and laws, that made of man the center
of creation.
Let us remember
that age... The Age Of Words
Neolithic
tribes soon developed a certain organic structure, that has been repeated ad
infinitum since then.
To that aim
humans organize in herds, that communicate like any herd through a common language,
and certain networks of information, that carry that common language. Books
and machines that transfer information create in this manner, a 'nervous system'
among human societies, that make them very similar to 'evolved social organisms'.
Perhaps the
main feature of organisms is the high degree of communication established between
the different 'cells', of the social herd.
So happens
in history thanks to the two basic systems of 'communication of information',
that all humans understand, and allow them to act together.
Images and
words, the basic component of the human mind, which verbal and visual civilizations
based in human senses, artistic civilizations, evolved in history.
The quality of verbal art
As a consequence of the biological nature of languages, we cannot regard any longer verbal art, as a product, or a secondary commodity. “Literature for the sake of aesthetics; art for the sake of art” is far less relevant than “sacred art”, literature with an educational mission, either social literature and philosophy, or sensorial literature (fiction), which educates the senses and feelings of the people. There are qualities in the forms of literature, because literature has a function. Literature is not useless entertainment. Verbal Art is the biological language of mankind, and our societies. Its function is to mirror reality and explain the universe to man, from our own point of view, with the aim of helping human societies to survive. This means that we can qualify the quality of literature, according to such function.
It will be good literature, either legal, religious, fiction or logic literary art, a verbal construction that through its reading and practice, improves the capacity of an individual to behave ethically and in harmony with the other members of his society. It will be bad art, those literary and verbal forms that harm the harmony of societies.
So “War and Peace” is good art. So it is the “bill of rights” or the “Gospel”. They try to give the reader an “ethic sense of life” that favors peace over war; human rights over the rights of machines; and love and poverty, and despise for money and war, (the message of the gospel). Since history proves that those attitudes are positive for the survival of the individuals of society. On the other hand bad verbal art, is that art, which harms the energy and information of civilizations, pushing individuals against each other.
A typical script made in Hollywood that makes an apology of violence and murder is bad verbal art, regardless of its technological achievements. Its consequence is to multiply the use of weapons in our society, of technological species, that harm mankind.
The decalogue scripts of Polish director K. Kieslowski, are master pieces of filmed literature, despite its minimal technology because they make us reflect on the basic matters of love and life and death, far more important than the designed special effects of digital computers. A fascist law is also bad art. A religion which does not accept the equality of all men, a tribal religion of “chosen of god”, is also bad ethic verbal art. Since it allows war between tribes. Those facts are self-evident to any human being that thinks naturally about the purpose of art and verbal thought. They might collide with the “economic view”, that favors all forms of literature, specially those forms of literature, that multiply the use of machines, even weapons (economic and military nationalism, advertising, etc.)... according to the old lemma “you will defend me with your sword, and I will defend you with my word”.
Such art is considered here “rhetoric art”, bad literature, since its purpose is the opposite to the biological function of verbal thought. However in present societies most verbal art is rhetoric art, art that has neither a moral, ethic standing, or even any relationship with the reality of man as an individual or member of a human society. Why is that? Because words are no longer the language of information and power of our societies, a role that today belongs to money.
As a consequence, verbal thought is no longer the language of power, the sacred language, and it has no longer the role of guiding the survival of mankind. For that reason words enter in decadence, and loose “logic, realistic power”, becoming “fiction”, a language used to describe false realities. The value of things now is given by its price, not by its verbal meaning. And so mathematics describes reality, while words are used to describe fictions, and those realities of lesser power, such as the individual lives - no longer the social lives of people... Literature is now too often fiction, or science, or shallow I-literature, ego-trips and bio-pics of little relevance, or books on secondary senses and products (from gastronomy, to do-it-yourself manuals). Sacred literature has almost died away...
The substitution of human ethics and aesthetics, by the ethics and aesthetics of machines.
Why? Because our societies are no longer concerned by human beings, but by machines, by human aesthetics but by digital aesthetics, the rules of proportion of those machines, by the survival and reproduction of human beings, but by the re=production of machines in company mothers. Hard to swallow but truth. The kingdom of human ethics and aesthetics today has been substituted by the kingdom of machine ethics (the ethics of violence, war and monetary corruption) and machine aesthetics (the aesthetics of mathematics).
However in the past, in the ecosystems-organisms of history that we have called nations and civilizations, words, legal systems and art were far more important, because they were the informative networks of societies. Verbal and visual knowledge and Art were the mind of civilizations as historic organisms, organized by legal information, and religion.
And so art, as the social networks of information of civilizations, was not so much an individual phenomena, but a collective phenomena. And the artist felt himself with a social role, as the neuronal cells, the informative organs of his society. It was for that reason the art of any artist was basically similar, to the art of all other artists of its society. It was “style-art”, because the style, was the collective message of a civilization. Today however, because civilizations are no longer ruled by human minds, but by networks of financial information, by company-mothers and its lobbies, by networks of metal-minds that produce information in industrial processes, the artist no longer has a social role of relevance. So he is free of any collective style. The style that controls ideas of artists, exists however in radios, televisions, internets, and all other forms of industrial information. A style which is controlled, and tailored to produce the basic message of industrial societies: men have as only purpose to work=reproduce machines, and test=consume them. Of course this message is presented with al the rhetoric of beauty, and freedom necessary to hide the fact, that work and consume are not acts that necessarily develop and increase the human sensorial freedom, but basically evolve and multiply machines. Yet the message has reached so much sophistication, that most human beings today, believe that to be a worker and a consumer is the paramount freedom of mankind; while to evolve human senses, and enjoy human goods, and the pleasures of human existence is either a “sin”, an act of “laziness”, and “weakness” and a “lost of time”. The fact is that all top predators in the Universe, exist to be lazy, lions of the savanna, enjoying the basic pleasures of his organism, to reproduce (sex-love), to feed energy [food, movement], and to receive its natural information (verbal thought and visual beauty in the human case). That is, the ideals of society before the industrial revolution - the ideals of renaissance, and the aristocracy, top predator caste of that age. And vice versa, and ideal world dedicated to the freedoms of machines, will imply that men-slaves of machines would dedicate their time to the reproduction of machines (work) its evolution (industrial research) and its vitalization as species in movement (consume of machines that vitalize their existence).
So it is evident that the freedom of the market, the freedom of the economy, is the freedom of machines and its company-mothers. While the biological freedom of the citizen, of the human being, were the ideals expressed by the art styles of historic civilizations. Those facts have of course enormous historic relevance, and explain why under such brain-washing propaganda, the classic historic, social, religious art and his aesthetic and ethic ideas, clash so deeply with modern ideologies of economical men and yet they were accepted and enjoyed by the citizens of Historic civilizations. They found in the social ideas of religious art, and the sensorial ideals of individual art, the pursuit of their self-realization as individual, biological human beings, and as part of a macro-social organism, a culture, or civilization, that social art harmonized, as nervous messages harmonize social cells in a body.
In all those cultures art was sacred,
art was considered the informative network of the Historic organism. Art caused
the evolution of the collective human mind. Art was the mind of civilizations,
and acted in the social historic organism, as the nervous networks act in the
human organism.
The function of visual art
What was the social role on that sacred view, of visual art? If we have considered verbal art, to be in charge of the temporal perception of a civilization, visual art, obviously will be in charge of the visual perception of such culture. Visual art therefore has also a human canon, an aesthetic, spatial canon, referred to the relative dimensions of man. If verbal art has to create temporal harmony among individuals, visual art has to create spatial harmony, beauty, in the space of that civilization.
Such is the classic vision of architecture and sculpture, urbanism and painting, even gardening, or agricultural development. All those arts that transform the space around us tried to create a harmonic environment in societies. And when both canons succeeded, we talk of a harmonic civilization in which ethics and aesthetics (the moral of the eye), favor a Wor[l]d built to the image and resemblance of mankind.
The function of art, is to shape the environment of man in a pleasant way. Yet since all measure in space and time is relative (Theory of Relativity), a pleasant space for man has the references of human size and form. To make of man the center of creation, the God of the Earth. This was understood perfectly by the theoretical minds of Renaissance, the last human culture, previous to the Industrial Revolution. The aim of renascence artists was to create ethics and aesthetics, for the Italian society. They worked hand in hand with the church in charge of the ethics of Christian societies. They tried to create “canons” of beauty as the gospel tried to create canons of ethics. They affirmed that men should try to achieve a mind and a body according to such canons. The artist, as the most complex mind of society, was the guide of the individual, which tried to achieve personal perfection as a human being, imitating those ethic and aesthetic roles, the artists showed him.
The destruction of the renaissance caused by the evolution of gunpowder weapons, the creation of religions that worshipped money instead of words as the language of information of human societies (Calvinism, Anglicanism), and the beginning of science with its despise for human words and human eyes, meant the collapse of the artist as the guide of human societies.
The human paradise as the goal of history also was lost. A new culture, and a new civilization appeared, where the goal of history became the progress of the machine, and the human goal, the paradise of human senses, where “man is the measure of all things” was forgotten.
We are living the consequences of such mistake, in a world in which man no longer matters, where humans and words are submissive to mathematics and machines...
Yet only the best human minds, verbal priests, and social activists that follow the original ideas of his wor[l]d-masters, sensorial artists, that do not renounce to explore fully the human nature, and rebels of thought that do not accept the brain-washing of scientific myths, and market-propaganda, realize of the errors of our society. What lead us to the understanding of social wor(l)ds, of sacred wor(l)ds, as those informative systems, that try to harmonize, according to the laws of the organic Universe, human societies and civilizations. Those are the wor(l)ds of love religions, and democratic, just, legal systems.
Biological definition of God
We can now very easily define a God based in verbal texts, as the informative brain of the organism of History. As the nervous system of your body and your nervous brain is the God of your cells that controls them with informative impulses, the book of revelation of a prophet, and his ethic laws are the gods of a society that is controlled and survives better when it obeys those Laws. Of course those laws of human gods are based in the laws of survival of the Universe, which are basically the law of social evolution among equal species.
So it turns out that human Gods of love are also parallel to the Absolute God of the Universe, the Logos of the Greek, the Laws of nature, that say that equal species have to love each other and evolve together. So God means "the verbal, informative Mind of mankind, and His ethical Laws, that reflect the ethic laws of the Universe. In Christian Jargon “the World that became man and inhabited among us”. (Saint John, 1.)
Love Religions -by making the human language of information the word, God- put man at the center of the Universe, to help him to survive. Human Love religions spell the laws of Darwinian Evolution (Man can pray on other species) and laws of social evolution (Man has to love himself and his fellow man). Universal, informative Laws from the point of view of Mankind, and His language of information, Words. They call that human Laws of behavior and survival: “God”.
So if verbal, love Gods are the brain of humanity, of history, it is obvious that human individuals are the cells informed by that body. This again is confirmed by the Gospel. Since Christ declares that each men is the temple of the spirit, and our mystiques both in Islam and Christianity consider us as “cells of the body of God”, of Islam and Christ. Of course both Islam and Christ are themselves part of the total God, which is History itself, since their ethic messages are basically the same. We might say that there is only a God, and several great human prophets, sons of God, sons of the Word that have understood their messages of love. Christ, Mhmd, Buddha, are those great prophets. Modern ecological and socialist writers who drink on their traditions are their modern disciples that translate to modern jargon their messages of social love, and promotion of human goods.
The organism of that Human God, is the Body of History, the Ecosystem of Man, and Nature, that we should preserve to be immortal as a species. Because “those who believe in me, will never die”. Those who believe in Gold religions, in metal religions, in the tree of science, however will die, as the prophets of love have ever announced.
Perhaps our definition of a body or organism will help you to grasp what we mean by a God: “A Universal organism is a biological radiation of a (particular species) extended in time and space and related by networks=Gods of information, and networks=Gods of energy”. A God is the macrocosmic network of information or energy of the organism when perceived from the microcosmic point of view of its cells, that the network of energy or information controls.
You just have to find a herd of parallel cells and some energy network that relates those cells, and some information network or language or force of information between those cells, and you will have a macrocosmic organism. The networks of information and Energy of that organism will be for the small cells, “macrocosms”, with such informative and energy power, that will act in fact as Gods of those cells. Aristotle defined informative Gods, as knots-brains around which energy masses moved. Networks of information, linguistic networks do indeed move masses of energy, give orders, and inform that energy, transforming those masses, and shaping the futureto their image and resemblance. For that reason Go[l]d and Word create different societies, different Wor[l]ds.
The brain of the Human god is the “verbal network” of believers, the books of Revelation, and the Social Laws that create “human behavior”. The ethical codes of man, are the Gods of man, his informative systems that create a collective future. We create the futurewhen we obey informative verbal codes. God is the verb, and its ethical codes of survival expressed in religions.
The metaphor of God: “God became the Word that inhabited among us”
God basically is Man, a metaphor for our species, and his language and networks of information, the ethic laws, and words that control and help society to survive. This metaphoric definition of god, that was clear to those first prophets who created those religions, has been manipulated so much in the past centuries, that very few people today understand the metaphor of God, as the verbal brain, of the Organism of History, as mankind... So scientists laugh at religion, without even knowing what they are talking about.
If we use instead of religious words, a biological perspective, societies and civilizations, the main units of historical analysis become organisms composed of cellular herds (human societies) which communicate through networks of information (words and money) and of energy (agriculture, organic territories, roads, electricity, etc.).
In such translation of philosophical terminology, we conclude that what history has traditionally called a “Human God” with ethical laws can be interpreted as an organic network of information. As a nervous system connects and organizes the cells of a body, “God” connects and organizes a mass of human beings, individually known as “believers”. Surprisingly we find that Islam and Christianity [Ibn Khaldun, early mystics, Saint Agustine] reached similar conclusions. The transmitters of such networks of collective information are the books of Revelation common to all believers that harmonize mass-cellular experiences. Since human networks of information are verbal ethic laws; the Word becomes the god of man, his social guide and network of information. As Saint John expressed so well: “God, the Verb, became man and inhabited among us”.
The Koran is the sacred word of God, his ideas. In Christianity the word becomes God in the mind of his human son Christ, the prophet who has the body of man, and the verb-mind of God. In him, the word reached its fulfillment. In him, the word expresses the Human Laws of social evolution, through love=sensory communication, and sharing of human goods between humans. Pure Christianity was socialist, because socialism is the natural Law of human organization, where money and machines do not impose “limits” to human communication. A prophet is a verbal master, a son of God=the word, the informative organ of the species. Mystics say that the community of believers shapes the “body of Christ”, and the Gospel is his mind. Muslims say that the “body of Muslims” is Islam and Koran its brain. In both cultures the Verbal language has to control the corruption of money, and the harm that weapons do to humans. If that goal is achieved, history (in the words of Saint Agustine) could evolve towards the perfection of such a “body”, into a “citadel of saints”, where all ethical words will be obeyed, and the “body” will be in harmony with its informative and energy organs. Then history (the passing of time) will come to an end. History will become immortal without war. Man will be happy. God will come to this Earth. He will reign supreme, because we all will understand the nature of ourselves, and that of the Universe.
However, another type of information network has also evolved on the Earth: digital languages based on numbers, with a different structure from verbal languages. What they mean to the evolution of History? Why are digital networks and sciences historically opposed to verbal networks and religions?
Since religions concluded earlier in his analysis of the Universe that digital languages tend to evolve metal-species more than human species. They are the backbone of economic ecosystems which reproduce weapons and machines that kill “the organism of god”, the world of nature, and social harmony, through war, and ethical corruption, due to money. So all great prophets have attacked money and weapons, because they have defended the ecosystem of History, of God... So simple to understand, and yet today so little people perceives the organism of God, of social history, that as Nietzsche put it, “is dying, because men have killed it”.
Scientists, and weapon designers we might say have killed God, the organism of social History, despite earlier warnings by the first prophets=historians of the future, who said “do not eat of the tree of science, of his good (machines) and evil weapons, because they day you do, your species will die”... So the myth goes, when Adam the first scientist discovered metal, God condemned him to work as a smith (Islamic account of the original sin), and ever sin “Adam the Smith” and his sons like Cain, also a Smith, have evolved metal and killed with weapons the beauty of the Genesian paradise of life.
But why the Human God can die? Because it is basically the expression of the Laws of Social Evolution in the Universe. So if man denies those laws, if man no longer believes in God, the laws of the universe punish him. And other species who believe in God, Metal-species and their controlled human slaves (animetals) who promote metal, and act together in favor of metal survive. machines survive and replicate, the world unifies not under human ethic words, but under money. And so the Human Planet never appears. Only the Metal-earth, the planet of machines, and Matrix, its mental networks evolve and reproduce.
It is obvious that the power of Gods is relative to their size and the microcosm they perceive. For your cells your nervous system is an over powerful God. Yet for the Earth you are not God but just a cell of History. What you call physical reality is irrelevant to understanding Organisms=Gods. Perception is relative, and truths are subjective. Gods are also relative statements, only perceived as Gods from the point of view of their cells and the languages of information of those cells. In the case of History words are only Gods for humans able to understand and belong to a historic organism. Such is the tragedy of “relativistic Gods”, of networks that exist as macrocosm only on the informative eyes of their microcosmic cells.
The Great Gods of History
An organism, such as the organism of human Gods=history survives when there is balance between its networks of energy and information, the Carbolife Earth and its networks of information, the verbal ideologies that rule men. The same balance required in the body between blood and nervous systems, that keep the body healthy, is required in the Organism of Human history between Nature and verbal Man.
The informative ethical rules of religion regulate and balance the individual human cells, and allow civilizations to exist in harmony with Nature. They might be boring since death, chaos and freedom are exciting, but religious societies are healthy organisms of history because their human cells (believers) follow and control their behavior for the sake of the Organism=civilization= collective God. The laws of harmony in the social body of history are defined by religions in verbal codes which all cells=humans of History understand and should obey. Man is a cell of the organism of History. Religion is its brain=informative God.
We could draw the 3 ages of Human religions considering their 3 horizons of increasing growth, as men understand the nature of God, as the collective man of mankind, from a primitive age of small, tribal societies (racial Gods, and primitive religions that divide men in groups, and so have become today transformed by inquisitions and churches in animetal religions that worship war and money) to an age of Human Gods, that encompass all mankind, when finally men understand the Law of Love (Buddhism, Islam, Christianity) to the present, social understanding of God, within the context of the Organism of History, and the fight between men and machine [ecologism, socialism]:


Wor[l]d. (Read: Word Information =Human World)
A Wor[l]d is a synonym of a Historic ecosystem. A World means a human society where words are the main network-brain of information and power of the organism. So a world to the image of those words is created. The world becomes a mirror of the words of such society, which cater as the biological language of man, to the natural needs of humanity, producing human goods. While a world designed with mathematical equations, and abstract economics, cater to the needs of machines and company mothers that design them. Examples of such societies are the Christian “wor[l]d”, the Islamic “wor[l]d”, and the Communist “wor[l]d”,before the power of their words were corrupted by “words”. By contrast, a society ruled by monetary orders is not a “wor[l]d” but rather a “go[l]d” society, God=Gold, where gold=money has become the informative “god”, the network that rules society. Go[l]d religions create economic ecosystems where machines have higher rights than human beings. Classical Phoenicia and Israel and modern America and the Planet at large are examples of “go[l]d” societies - societies to which machines and money, digital science and war, have always been the ethic and aesthetic rule.
A biological science of Religions: Religions of Man Vs Religions of metal
On the many oppositions caused by the paradox of history between human ecosystems and metal ecosystems, one opposition of informative nature is specially relevant to history. The opposition between Gold religions which deform the nature of humanity, and through weapon-based inquisitions and money-based churches transform men into animetals, repressing our biological drives towards social evolution (love the others),and the creation of a paradise, a world to the image and resemblance of man.
The importance of the informative brains of societies -their ethic, legal and religious ideas- is fundamental. Since brains dominate bodies, it turns out that social brains dominate the actions of men and create two kind of worlds. Metal religions in their verbal version or their mathematical version [economics, science] create a world to the image and resemblance of the machines. Human religions create a world to the image and resemblance of man, with human energy and human information, the concept of a paradise. That opposition between both religions was clearly expressed by the Genesis, and the parable of the Tree of science. How can we classify both kind of religions? Easily. By knowing the nature of human freedom, human happiness, and human goods (human property), those religions who repress those human elements are metal religions. While religions who favor humanity and our natural drives are love religions. Obviously most humans feel intuitively that. So love religions have expanded far more than metal religions. Today 3 of those religions spread and are believed by billions of human beings, that want to survive and make a world to the image and resemblance of mankind, make of history, God, of the word: “the verbal networks of information that rule societies”. They are Islam, Christianity and Buddhism, partially corrupted by inquisitions and churches of money, yet still holding their ground given the enormous intelligence and human understanding of their initial prophets and their books of love: the gospel, the Koran, and the teaches of Buddha.
Those are the facts that explain the world in which we live, its confrontations, forms of art, and different ethics and aesthetics. Though in as much as History seems to be in the hands of Gold cultures, it turns out that all forms of human ethics and aesthetics, of gold religions, all neolithic agricultural cultures, all forms of nature, are degraded, scorned, and will sooner than latter become extinct. Problem is that when we become all worshippers of machines and digital languages, of technological cultures and gold, when human art dies away, as most artists of the human baroque predict, even those who members of gold religions today dictating the rules of art, and progress, will be obsolete, to the new race of intelligent machines. Hence the improtance of coming back to human ethics and aesthetics, before the ethics and aesthetics of machines ruin our planet, and end with all forms of sacred art and verbal knowledge.
