A Call to Arms in the War of Evolution 

and an Inquiry Concerning Aspects of Knowledge Specific to Leary's SMI2LE Theory 

A Call to Arms in the War of Evolution 

I choose here to speak my mind because I am finding it more and more difficult to discuss and advance my theories. I know less than 6 people who are interested and advanced enough to really stimulate my mind. Revelations are becoming fewer and further between ever passing day and i grow more and more bored. I know of no better place to find the stimulation i need than here. I seek your knowledge and wisdom. I have read the extropy chat and have been really apprehensive about posting because i fear rejection by those older and more intelligent thinkers whom i respect so much. I would ask u try to look over my grammar errors. I have tried my best to make this as legible as possible. Now on with the show.

I seek to absorb all the knowledge i can, process it , and spread it too all that are interested. I seek knowledge in every form I can, from writings of all kinds, experience (my own and anyone else's who chooses to share), and conversations/debates. I take in this information , process it based on my previous info, and use it as much as I can to further my understanding of the nature of everything. I share all I know in hopes of getting feedback on alternate points of view, flaws in my theories, and/or new connections/possibilities. This is the meaning of my life. I tell u this here because it is the most meaningful thing I can see in life and in hopes that someone reading this will be inspired or at the very least that this will get them to thinking. I am what Leary calls an Intelligence Agent, and this is my call to arms.

In my opinion, (as everything i say is, of course. so i wont bother stating this further) the purpose of all things in our known universe is to evolve. Our universe is a system, not unlike an exponentially more large and complex computer than those we have created. It is a self-evolving system based on some fundamental rules. As the system gets more complex, there is much more potential in the system for positivity and negativity (in this case just think of it as simply evolution and de-evolution respectively, as i don't feel this is the time or place to go further into my theories on chaotic positivity and negativity). This increase in positive/negative potential cannot be avoided. It is the reward/cost of evolution. 

All things go through the process of the metaphysical trinity (dynamism, stasis, entropy, and back to dynamism). This process ensures that all things grow until they reach a barrier or limit of some kind (current technology or information, for instance). They then break down when a new possibility becomes available (certain old aspects in favor of new "potentially" better aspects, survival of the fittest, if u will) allowing for further growth and expansion.

The universe has reached a point were it has created a system advanced enough for creative/ complex thought and a free will beyond anything else we currently know of (a stage in which the universe "computer" has created AI). Being the most advanced (as far as we know) system in this universe we have been given the greatest power for change (by system here I mean the human race). Our job (our meaning of life) is to further the evolution of all we can. We will do this one way or the other, consciously or not.The question is do u actively participate (to greatly speed up the evolution) or do u passively ride the chaos at the whim of whoever/whatever chooses to act upon u ? This is a question of power. Do u control or be controlled?Are u a shepherd or a sheep? Do you blissfully sleep or take active part in the greatest adventure of our times? Of course, thats only my 2 cents. Take it as u will. 



An Inquiry Concerning Aspects of Knowledge Specific to Leary's SMI2LE Theory 

 

I am requesting your help to further SMI2LE (SM= space migration, I2= intelligence increase, LE= life expectancy ). I have made a list of the areas of study that i feel would be most beneficial to the I2 and LE parts (the 2 of most interest to myself) . I was hoping to get your opinions and any info u know on the subjects as it relates to SMI2LE or resources (online preferably) where I could find the info for myself. I am researching this because i want to eventually get into one of these areas as a career so i can do my best to further SMI2LE. Here is my list with brief details on the parts of the field i find most important. Thank you in advance for any comments/help u may offer.

1) Biochemistry (the cell-chemical relations inside the human body)

2) Neurology (structure and development on the cellular level)

3) Free radicals and other things that influence DNA/cells entropy or growth 

4) DNA ( structure/development/breakdown/manipulation. to "force" biological evolution through manipulation)

5) Biomechanics ( biological and mechanical interface/interaction. to electronically/mechanically evolve mental/physical capabilities)

6) Nanotechnology (research/development , function/use theories, development problems/solutions)
