‘Kurt Goedel on the “Dumbing-Down” of
Humanity.’
GLOBAL STRATEGIC
HYPOTHESES.
Dear Reader,
Kurt Goedel was the immensely capable
discoverer of the Completeness Theorem for the first order predicate calculus
scale of formal symbolic logic, and the Incompleteness Theorems for all higher
orders of predicate calculus symbolic, or ideographical, formal logic, and a close friend
of Albert Einstein’s at the Princeton University-associated Institute for
Advanced Study – Goedel being a friend who achieved a closed-form, analytical, special
solution to the 10 simultaneous nonlinear partial differential equations-system
that constitutes Einstein’s theory of gravity, his General Theory of Relativity. That special solution featured “closed
time-like” world-lines.
Moreover, Goedel’s take on his
Incompleteness Theorems was not the statical interpretation that passes in official
academia today. Goedel’s view was that
his theorems established axiomatic mathematics as a progression of ever-richer,
ever more complex, but ever-incomplete axioms-systems/languages, what Errol
Harris would call a “dialectical scale”, and what we call a ‘qualo-fractal
consecuum-cumulum’ dialectic of ‘ideo-ontological’ categories of mathematical axiomatic systems.
Goedel described his discovery as that of “the
incompletability” and “inexhaustibility” of mathematics.
But Goedel was also alive to the
machinations of the ruling class, as described, in but one example, in the 2005
book Incompleteness, by Rebecca Goldstein, from which I
quote below, pp. 247-248:
“In Goedel’s estimation Leibniz was an even greater thinker than posterity has realized and had carried his ideas for a characteristica universalis – or an alphabet of thought, which would be used to represent thoughts in a logical way, rendering their internal logical relations transparent – to a more advanced stage than the written testimony suggests.”
“Goedel had confided
in Karl Menger his suspicions that some of Leibniz’s “important writings . . .
had not only failed to be published, but [had been] destroyed in manuscript.” ”
“ “Who could have an interest in destroying
Leibniz’s writings?” Menger had queried.”
“ “Naturally, those people who do not want men to become more
intelligent,” was the logician’s reply.”
“…Menger mentioned the interchange to Oskar Morgenstern, who had
something of his own to relate on the subject of Leibniz and Goedel.”
“He, too, had been alerted by Goedel as to
the deliberate suppression of Leibniz’s contributions and had tried to argue the
logician out of his conviction.”
“Finally, to convince Morgenstern, Goedel
had taken the economist to the university’s Firestone Library and gathered
together “an abundance of really astonishing material,” in Morgenstern’s words.”
“The material consisted of books and
articles with exact references to published writings of Leibniz, on the one
hand, and the very works cited, on the other.
The primary sources were all missing the material that had been cited in
the secondary sources.”
“ “This material was really highly astonishing,” a flabbergasted (if
unconvinced) Morgenstern admitted.”
Now, the official academic “party line” on Goedel is that he was brilliant but paranoid, and this view regarding Leibniz’s writings’ suppression, as well Goedel’s misgivings about at least one ‘loophole for dictatorship’ that Goedel detected in the U. S. Constitution, were merely Goedel’s paranoid delusions.
But didn’t someone once say that “only the
paranoid survive”, and didn’t another someone once say that “just because you
are paranoid, doesn’t mean that they aren’t really out to get you”.
J. Edgar Hoover had been plotting to
deport Goedel’s friend, Einstein, because of Einstein’s socialist views, and
both Einstein and Goedel quite likely got a whiff of that plot.
Goedel was paranoid that “the powers that
be” were trying to poison him. But,
given that Goedel was a man who could solve a system of 10 simultaneous
nonlinear differential equations, and, if he might have turned his skills to
unsolved nonlinear differential equations of greater immediate engineering
application, such as those that might disclose the optimal design for a fusion
power reactor, and given, shall we say, the ‘technodepreciating’ and liberating
implications of such a discovery, wouldn’t the ‘Rocke-Nazi’ faction have a
compelling motive to “liquidate” such a “threat” [to their power]?
The academic "party line" -- no doubt "sponsored" by the same ruling class faction that had it in for Einstein and, we hypothesize, for Goedel as well -- is that Goedel was delusional. But Rebecca Goldstein, in her book, let something slip through -- perhaps to her peril.
