The empyrean is the region of light in the azure atmosphere
where fire burns to lead you beyond the vernacular banister of fear.

The character of the person represents principle for authority in office.
Energy provides power by the hour for empowerment by promise.

The ethics of vigilance is like a warehouse
that holds tools to measure a proposal that has been espoused.

The death penalty was put on trial with the execution of Jesus.
He was nailed to the tree for no criminal reason, then Pilate named him as regis.

Christ was the firstborn of the dead and the ruler of monarchs.
He freed us from our sin by the blood from his marks.

The resurrected Jesus stood among his disciples.
He declared his peace to both friends and rivals.

Praise God in this holy temple of desire.
Order leads truth beyond the accidental quagmire.

Light shines to organize the incidental.
Action works for the value of the instrumentally incremental.

Recognize the excellence of greatness
that makes music through the spiral matrix.

Pluck the strings of linear ratio in length
that vibrate with the quid pro quo for strength. 

Pound the pulse of circles thrust
in timbrel beats for rhythmic trust.

Flout the stasis of the cylindrical pipe
drilled with holes for the finger fight for delight.

Celebrate reverberation with metallic conics glanced
off tracks that are smashed in air for sonic impact enhanced.

Let everything that has breath or sound 
praise the Lord for the strength of the profound.

Resurrect your desire for the divine fire.
Let it burn in your heart with flames that reach higher.

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

150 Laudate Dominum
Praise the Lord

1 Hallelujah!
Praise God in his holy temple;
praise him in the firmament of his power.
2 Praise him for his mighty acts;
praise him for his excellent greatness.
3 Praise him with the blast of the ram's-horn;
Praise him with lyre and harp.
4 Praise him with timbrel and dance;
praise him with strings and pipe.
5 Praise him with resounding cymbals;
praise him with loud-clanging cymbals.
6 Let everything that has breath
praise the Lord.
Hallelujah!

John 20:19

When it was evening on that day, the first day of the week and the doors of the house where the disciples had met were locked for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said. 'Peace be with you.'

The resurrected Jesus stood among his disciples.
He declared his peace to both friends and rivals.

Too much uncertainty?

Godel had argued that a set of mathematical systems known as first order logic can be proved to be true through a system called formal deduction.

He completed his doctoral dissertation under the direction of Hans Hahn at the age of 23. Hahn was a leader of the Vienna Circle. The Circle was known for the atheism of their logical positivism. Young Kurt was a theist. He was a rare bird in the group, but his accomplishment was allowed based on the strength of his argument.

He published his incompleteness theorems in 1933. The first theorem states that there are statements in a logical system that includes arithmetic which can neither be proved or disproved in the system.

An axiom statement that is taken to be true can never truly be proven or complete within its own system. This means that at least one axiom must remain unproven. This made the system incomplete.

There was an association with the liar's paradox that questioned truth as expressed by any system. The paradox used the statement "This statement is a lie" to question the capacity to prove truth with language. It is a subversive assertion with respect for the validity of constitutional law.

The Roman republic rejected monarchy by defining human nature as corrupt. No one even in a line of succession was worthy to lead the public alone. Human nature was too corrupt to entertain such a figure.

The Roman empire conceded that an emperor was a necessary evil for civilization in the world. An emperor had a line of succession when he agreed with the patricians and plebians.

This agreement was not easy to attain. Many emperors were deposed or killed. A dynasty could be ended for having too noble an intent.

The holy Roman empire had monarchs. The monarchy was allowed a line of succession, but the pope placed himself over the king of kings in authority. This allowed for the development of the Ottoman empire as a threat to the stability of Europe.

The emperor had more authority than other kings, but the defense of the southern border from Ottoman expansion lacked organizational investment. There was too much competition between the kings and the kingdoms to defend the border with constancy.

The British empire had great success in the world thanks to the movement to outlaw slavery. The empire was not only a value to itself. It had something to share with allies and non-allies.
The parliament had an organizational mission with global significance. Once the institution was outlawed the focus for the organization was lost.

Parliament and Congress would like to believe that their noble intent is to end terrorism. The precipitation of profit from violent conflict however implicates both governmental bodies in creating a mission that cannot be completed without a loss of power for the leading officials in the lower houses.

Godel had another incompleteness theorem in which he introduced the potential for consistency. He also had a completeness theorem. These developments were clouded by the success of his first theorem.

Bertrand Russell had a different way of explaining the relation of certainty to uncertainty. He said that belief has at least a small shadow of doubt. There is a method for increasing the degree of certainty in truth.

Listen to all sides in a debate. Ascertain the relevant facts. Cultivate the readiness to discard any hypothesis which has proved inadequate.

This method is practiced as science. It has built up the body of knowledge that is scientific.
Godel's consistency and completeness theorems demonstrated that logic could be developed independently.

Russell proposed a system for reasoning in public. Both are necessary for the success of a government, but reasoning in public has a more official capacity.

Tragic Paranoia

Kurt Godel
b. 4.26.1906  Brunn, Austria-Hungary
d. 1.14.78 Princeton, New Jersey

Brunn

Brunn is currently known as Brno (pronounced berno). Brno is the second largest city in the Czech Republic by population and area, the largest Moravian city and the historical capital city of the Margraviate of Moravia.

It  is located in the southeastern part of the Czech Republic at the confluence of the Svitava and Svratka rivers. There are also several brooks flowing through it. The average high is 24.5 C (76.1 F) in July. The average low is -5.2 C (22.6 F) in January.

The etymology of the name might be derived from the Old Czech brnie 'muddy, swampy.' Alternative derivations are from a Slavic verb brniti (to armour or to fortify) or the celtic word bryn (hill).

A celtic language was spoken in the area before it was overrun by Germanic and later Slavic peoples.  This theory would make it cognate with other Celtic words for hill, such as the Welsh word bryn.

The Holy Roman Emperor and Margrave of Moravia Ferdinand III commanded permanent relocation of the diet, court and the land tables from Olomouc to Brno in the midst of the Thirty Years' War in 1641.

The Thirty Years' War was a war fought primarily in Central Europe between 1618 and 1648. Records indicate that it was one of the most destructive conflicts in human history. It is claimed that it resulted in eight million fatalities not only from military engagements but also from violence, famine and plague.

Casualties were overwhelmingly and disproportionately inhabitants of the Holy Roman Empire. Most of the rest of the casualties resulted from battle deaths for various foreign armies.

It was initially a war between various Protestant and Catholic states in the fragmented Holy Roman Empire. It gradually developed into a more general conflict involving most of the European great powers.

These states employed relatively large mercenary armies. The war became less about religion and more of a continuation of the France–Habsburg rivalry for European political pre-eminence.

The war was preceded by the election of the new Holy Roman Emperor, Ferdinand II. He tried to impose religious uniformity on his domains. Roman Catholicism was forced on the people. The northern Protestant states were angered by the violation of their rights to choose.

The right had been granted in the Peace of Augsburg. The states banded together to form the Protestant Union. Ferdinand II was more intolerant than his predecessor. Rudolf II had ruled from the largely Protestant city of Prague. Ferdinand's policies were considered strongly pro-Catholic and anti-Protestant.

The town became one of the industrial centres of Moravia and the Austro-Hungarian Empire after the start of the Industrial Revolution in the late 18th century. It is sometimes referred to as the "Moravian Manchester".

The first train arrived in 1839. The growth of the suburbs took place together with the development of industry. The city lost its fortifications. The Spielberg fortress became a notorious prison to which were sent not only criminals, but also political opponents of the Austrian Empire.

Gas lighting was introduced to the city in 1847 and trams in 1869. The Mahen Theatre was the first theatre building in Europe to use Edison's electric lamps. Thomas Edison then visited Brno in 1911 to see the theater.

Kurt Godel

Kurt was born April 28, 1906, in Brünn, Austria-Hungary to the family of Rudolf and Marianne Godel. Rudolf was the manager of a textile factory. Marianne nee Handschuh came from the German Rhineland. Brunn had a German speaking majority that included the Godels at the time of Kurt's birth.

His father was Catholic. His mother was Protestant. The children were raised Protestant.  His grandfather Joseph Godel was a famous singer. He was a member of the Brünner Männergesangverein (Men's Choral Union of Brünn) for some years.

Kurt suffered from rheumatic fever at the age of 6 or 7 according to his brother Rudolf. He completely recovered, but for the rest of his life he remained convinced that his heart had suffered permanent damage.

He used his illness as a reason to investigate the cause of things. His parents took to referring to Kurt as “Herr Varum”, Mr Why, for his insatiable curiosity.

Kurt attended the Evangelische Volksschule, a Lutheran school in Brünn from 1912 to 1916. He  was enrolled in the Deutsches Staats-Realgymnasium from 1916 to 1924. He excelled with honors in all his subjects, particularly in mathematics, languages and religion.

His investment in history and mathematics developed after his appreciation for languages. His interest in mathematics increased when his older brother Rudolf (born 1902) left  to go to medical school at the University of Vienna in 1920.

Kurt studied Gabelsberger shorthand, Goethe's Theory of Colours and criticisms of Isaac Newton and the writings of Immanuel Kant during his teens.

The Austro-Hungarian Empire broke up in 1918 at the end of World War I. Kurt became a Czechoslovak citizen at age 12. Brunn was renamed Brno. His classmate Klepetař said that like many residents of the predominantly German Sudetenländer, "Gödel considered himself always Austrian and an exile in Czechoslovakia."

Kurt joined his brother at the University of Vienna after the turned 18. He had already mastered university-level mathematics by that time. He initially intended to study theoretical physics, but he attended courses in mathematics and philosophy. He adopted mathematical realism at this time.
He read Kant's Metaphysische Anfangsgründe der Naturwissenschaft (Metaphysical Foundations for Natural Science).

He participated in the Vienna Circle with Moritz Schlick, Hans Hahn and Rudolf Carnap. The Vienna Circle was a group of philosophers and scientists drawn from the natural and social sciences, logic and mathematics who met regularly from 1924 to 1936 at the University of Vienna with Moritz Schlick. They worked to develop Logical Empiricism.

The Manifesto (1929) for the group stated that the scientific world-conception is characterized "essentially by two features." Knowledge is drawn only from experience. It is empiricist and positivist. The scientific world-conception is marked by the application of logical analysis as the method.

Logical analysis shows that there are two different kinds of statements. One kind includes statements reducible to simpler statements about the empirically given. The other kind includes statements which cannot be reduced to statements about experience. This kind is devoid of meaning.

Metaphysical statements belong to this second kind. They are meaningless. Many philosophical problems were rejected as pseudo-problems which came from logical mistakes.  Others were re-interpreted as empirical statements and became the subject of scientific inquiries.

The rejection of metaphysical statements held larger implications than the rejection of Kant's work. Innate ideas as a basis for moral philosophy were discarded. Religion was viewed as something that had impeded progress in scientific investigation up to that point in time.

The only two kinds of statements accepted by the Vienna Circle were synthetic statements a posteriori (i.e., scientific statements) and analytic statements a priori (i.e., logical and mathematical statements).

The final goal pursued by the circle was unified science. It looked to construct a "constitutive system" in which every legitimate statement is reduced to the concepts of lower level which refer directly to the given experience.

Gödel studied number theory until he took part in a seminar run by Moritz Schlick which studied Bertrand Russell's book Introduction to Mathematical Philosophy. He became interested in mathematical logic. This was "a science prior to all others, which contains the ideas and principles underlying all sciences" according to his inspiration.

He attended a lecture by David Hilbert in Bologna on completeness and consistency of mathematical systems. It may have set his life course. Hilbert and Wilhelm Ackermann published Grundzüge der theoretischen Logik (Principles of Mathematical Logic), an introduction to first-order logic in 1928.

The problem of completeness was posed. Are the axioms of a formal system sufficient to derive every statement that is true in all models of the system? This became the topic that Gödel chose for his doctoral work.

He completed his doctoral dissertation under Hans Hahn's supervision at the age of 23 in 1929. He established his completeness theorem regarding the first-order predicate calculus in it. He was awarded his doctorate in 1930. His thesis was published by the Vienna Academy of Science accompanied by some additional work.

Gödel met dancer Adele Nimbursky (née Porkert) in the Viennese night club, Der Nachtfalter (The Moth) in 1927 at age 21. She had been married and was six years older than Kurt. His parents disapproved of the match.

His mother Marianne was 14 years younger than his father, Rudolf. This was the second time they had disapproved of Kurt’s liaison with an older woman.  It was not until the autumn of 1938 that Kurt and Adele were married.

His father Rudolf died in 1929, the same year he completed his doctoral thesis. The family was left in comfortable circumstances. Gödel’s mother bought an apartment in Vienna. She lived with both of her sons and enjoyed the cultural life of the city, especially musical theater. Gödel developed a lifelong love of operetta.

He delivered his incompleteness theorems at a conference in Konigsberg in 1930. The theorems were published in an article. He proved for any computable axiomatic system that is powerful enough to describe the arithmetic of the natural numbers that:

If a (logical or axiomatic formal) system is consistent, it cannot be complete.

The consistency of axioms cannot be proved within their own system.

These theorems ended a half-century of attempts to find a set of axioms sufficient for all mathematics. The attempts had started with the work of Frege and culminated in Hilbert's formalism.

The basic idea at the heart of the incompleteness theorem is simple. Gödel essentially constructed a formula that claims that it is unprovable in a given formal system. If it were provable, it would be false.

There will always be at least one true but unprovable statement. There is a formula that is true of arithmetic for any computably enumerable set of axioms which is not provable in that system.

He earned his habilitation at Vienna in 1932. He became a Privatdozent (unpaid lecturer) there in 1933. Adolf Hitler came to power in Germany in that year. The Nazis rose in influence in Austria and among Vienna's mathematicians over the following years.

Godel developed the ideas of computability and recursive functions to the point where he was able to present a lecture on general recursive functions and the concept of truth. This work was developed in number theory using the numbering system he had designed at the University of Vienna.

He gave a series of lectures at the Institute for Advanced Study (IAS) in Princeton, New Jersey, entitled On undecidable propositions of formal mathematical systems in 1934. He visited the IAS again in the autumn of 1935.

The traveling and the hard work had exhausted him. The next year he took a break to recover from a depressive episode. He returned to teaching in 1937. He worked on the proof of consistency of the axiom of choice and of the continuum hypothesis during this time. He went on to show that these hypotheses cannot be disproved from the common system of axioms of set theory. 

Moritz Schlick whose seminar had aroused Gödel's interest in logic was assassinated in June 1936 by one of his former students, Johann Nelböck. This triggered "a severe nervous crisis" in Gödel. He developed paranoid symptoms including a fear of being poisoned. He spent several months in a sanitarium for nervous diseases.

He left for another visit to the United States. He spent the autumn of 1938 at the IAS and publishing Consistency of the axiom of choice and of the generalized continuum-hypothesis with the axioms of set theory. He introduced the constructible universe, a model of set theory in which the only sets that exist are those that can be constructed from simpler sets.

Gödel showed that both the axiom of choice (AC) and the generalized continuum hypothesis (GCH) are true in the constructible universe.  The AC and GCH must be consistent with the Zermelo–Fraenkel axioms for set theory (ZF).

This result has had considerable consequences for working mathematicians. It means they can assume the axiom of choice when proving the Hahn–Banach theorem. Paul Cohen later constructed a model of ZF in which AC and GCH are false. Together these proofs mean that AC and GCH are independent of the ZF axioms for set theory.

When the Nazis annexed Austria in 1938, Germany abolished the title Privatdozent. Gödel had to apply for a different position under the new order. His former association with Jewish members of the Vienna Circle especially with Hahn weighed against him. The University of Vienna turned his application down.

His predicament intensified when the German army found him fit for conscription. World War II started in September 1939. Gödel and his wife left Vienna for Princeton before the year was up.  He was befriended by another famous German theorist in residence, Albert Einstein.

The two immigrants shared daily walks to and from their offices at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton University talking in their native German. Theirs was a friendship of shared language which came with a degree of social isolation. Einstein would even accompany Gödel to his 1947 hearing to become a U.S. citizen.

Einstein and Morgenstern went with Gödel to his U.S. citizenship exam on December 5, 1947. They acted as witnesses. Gödel had confided in them that he had discovered an inconsistency in the Constitution that could allow the U.S. to become a dictatorship.

Einstein and Morgenstern were concerned that their friend's unpredictable behavior might jeopardize his application. The judge turned out to be Phillip Forman. He knew Einstein.

He had administered the oath at Einstein's citizenship hearing. Everything went smoothly until Forman happened to ask Gödel if he thought a dictatorship like the Nazi regime could happen in the U.S.

Gödel then started to explain his discovery to Forman. Forman understood what was going on. He cut Gödel off and moved the hearing on to other questions and a routine conclusion.

The Constitution represents a system that can be analyzed. The benefit from the analytic view was that any flaw be it an inconsistency or an insufficiency could be corrected with adequate consensus, but a hearing for citizenship is not the forum for developing the consensus.

Gödel became a permanent member of the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton in 1946. He stopped publishing around this time, though he continued to work. He became a full professor at the Institute in 1953 and an emeritus professor in 1976.

He was a convinced theist in the Christian tradition. He held the notion that God was personal. He described his religion as "baptized Lutheran" but not member of any religious congregation.

His belief was theistic. He felt that Spinoza was pantheistic. He said that he followed "Leibniz rather than Spinoza." He circulated among his friends an elaboration of Leibniz's version of Anselm of Canterbury's ontological proof of God's existence in the 1970's. This is now known as Gödel's ontological proof.

He suffered periods of mental instability and illness. He had an obsessive fear of being poisoned. He would eat only food that his wife, Adele, prepared for him. She was hospitalized for six months late in 1977. She could no longer prepare her husband's food. He refused to eat in her absence and starved to death.

Douglas Hofstadter wrote a popular book in 1979 called Gödel, Escher, Bach. The book celebrates the work and ideas of Gödel along with those of artist M. C. Escher and composer Johann Sebastian Bach.

The book explores the ramifications of the fact that Gödel's incompleteness theorem can be applied to any Turing-complete computational system. The human brain fits the definition of that kind of system.

The Wall

The argument from liberals against the proposal for a wall on the border with Mexico is ad hominem.

ad hominem translates as 'at the man'. The term is used against personal attack or logical fallacy.

ad hominem

Liberals deflect public attention from their accountability by misdirecting anger for the lack of it toward the person in the highest office. The media expression comes mostly from the Democrats, mostly in the House of Representatives.

It's their way of 'negotiating.' They claim power over the highest office by attacking the character of the person in the office.

Liberals don't represent enough reason to reason reasonably, so they name a cause in order to attack conservative policy in the institution of a proposal, so they can imply that the public is dependent on them for representation.

They make a counter-proposal that taxes the public more as independent from cost as can be managed in order to indicate that their proposal is more valuable. They move back and forth between fallacy and attack in order to entertain some variety in the intensity of the deflection.
