Reality We Create Explained by Quantum Principals

by Mark W. Gaffney



Havard Business Review posted on Linkedin an article entitled, To Control Your Life, Control What You Pay Attention To (1), by Maura Thomas
providing a cool graphic illustration capturing attention of an internet user. Information overload is a major problem during the information age. 

As a writer I am in the process of writing a book about how Quantum mechanics is the underlying principal of human consciousness. A study of the sensory process of attention is fundamental to understanding dynamics of human conscious awareness.

As a writer analyzing how a qubit as conduit of information expressing flowing conscious awareness within universe God created I have written extensively about how two based permutation logic algorithms build neurological architecture over the course of a lifetime by establishing functional connectivity motifs of neuron groups. Neurological architecture built over the course of a lifetime by two based permutation algorithms is foundation of perceptual processes that control what we attend too. 

Simplicity of conscious manifestation of our physical universe is an act of pure creative genius stamped with God's indelible mark.  In my freelance articles entitled, Gestalt Make Up of the Ultimate Thinking Machine Will Transcend Computer Program Code (2), and Love for the Created Physical Universe is the Ultimate Intelligence, On this Earth Intelligence is in Short Supply (3) , I provide a discussion of simplistic neuroscience allowing for conscious manifestation of our physical universe as related to reverse engineering an artificial intelligent mind. Intelligent Design within our universe highlights mankind as a co-creator.

Perception leads to a psychological process of quantum particalization of conscious awareness similar to when photons diverge from traveling as waves to consolidate into particles upon observation of a scientist. Meditation allows one to embrace an eclectic quantum wave function of reality expressed by Oriental concept of Tao.

I write about discovering greater meaningfulness in life.  My freelance article entitled, Personal Growth, Learning Curve, and Education from a Quantum Perspective (4), is about discovering greater meaningfulness in life.

 A process of discovering greater meaningfulness in life is about making connections, or connecting the dots to coin a familiar cliché. A new dimension in terms of discovering connections is meaningful coincidence as a byproduct of relativity and quantum synchronicity defined as an Unus Mundus (5) by Carl Jung and Wolfgang Pauli. A concept of an Unus mundus is a pattern of meaningful events that apparently defy statistical probability based upon underlying quantum synchronicity and relativity within our universe God designed.

As a writer working to overcome mental health issues during the information age the article entitled, To Control Your Life, Control What You Pay Attention To (1), provides useful information I need to learn to apply in my daily life as referenced on Twitter:

In reference to attention the Holy Bible states in Philippians 4: 8:
"Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things." New International Version (6)

An article written by John Horgan published by Scientific American entitled, Do Our Questions Create the World (7), provides an intriguing interview with renown physicist, John Wheeler, a leading expert upon quantum physics.

In the Scientific American article renown physicist John Wheeler defines the psychological process of quantum particalization that I often discuss in my freelance articles. In my freelance articles I discuss the psychological process of quantum particalization in reference to final destiny of mankind. 

 The following are key excerpts from the Scientific American article, Do Our Questions Create the World, in which renown physicist John Wheeler defines psychological process of quantum particalization.:

"Wheeler has condensed these ideas into a phrase that resembles a Zen koan: “the it from bit.” In one of his free-form essays, Wheeler unpacked the phrase as follows: “...every it--every particle, every field of force, even the spacetime continuum itself--derives its function, its meaning, its very existence entirely--even if in some contexts indirectly--from the apparatus-elicited answers to yes-or-no questions, binary choices, bits.”
"The irony is that Wheeler’s it from bit implies that a final theory will always be a mirage, and that truth is something created rather than objectively apprehended. "
"But Wheeler himself has suggested that there is nothing but smoke. “I do take 100 percent seriously the idea that the world is a figment of the imagination,” he remarked to physicist/science writer Jeremy Bernstein in 1985"
In terms of renown physicist John Wheelers delineation of physical reality as a figment of the imagination or smoke in my recent freelance article entitled, Quantum Perspective Applied to Understand Russian Investigation in USA Politics (8), I analyzed Russian investigation as smoke:

Citizens with inquiring minds may be asking why is the Russian investigation going on for so long at considerable cost to taxpayers? At this juncture over midway into Trump administration taxpaying U.S. citizens likely consider the Russian investigation as malarkey.

I hear President Trump quip in the stratosphere, 'This is spooky action at a distance'.

My work as a writer is important because in my freelance writing I outline practical implications of Quantum principals to more fully understand personal individual responsibility as related to final destiny of mankind. My Wordpress blog post entitled, Application of Quantum Perspective to Achieve Peace and Good Will on Earth (9), is a Twitter record of my working toward peace and good will on earth by applying quantum perspective to untangle complex variables that are obstacles to peace and good will.

In my freelance article entitled, Leadership: Peace is Worth Fighting For (10), I provided the following insights about working towards peace and good will on Earth based upon quantum principals:

Oftentimes war built upon the premise there is something worth fighting and dying for. From a quantum perspective, there is something worth fighting and dying for is both true and false simultaneously. In reference to the Beatles song, Imagine, assigning meaningfulness that peace is worth fighting for is an exercise of leadership in an existential world devoid of meaningfulness except for meaningfulness human beings prone to error decide to assign based upon cognitive simulation of reality by human beings.
Charles Dickens timeless classic book, A Christmas Carol, thematically explored the concept of alternate parallel timelines as related to fixed destiny. Alternative parallel timelines are predicted by String Theory.

In my freelance article entitled Epitome of Hope for Mankind (11), I pointed out implications of United States of America quickly becoming an underdog upon the global world wide stage within international affairs. Secular society of the United States of America has something special to offer the world given that foundational documents outline manifestation of conscious awareness of individualism. 

An Unus Mundus outlined in foundational documents is both the same as Tao and different simultaneously given an Unus Mundus emphasize arriving at wholeness of truth through individualism, whereas Tao strifes to reach wholeness of truth by oneness with our universe during meditation. A poem entitled, The Road Not Taken (12), by Robert Frost alludes to opportunity cost as a consequence of quantum particalization demanding individuals make conscious choices.


Foundational documents of the United States of America highlight human consciousness within our Universe. Human consciousness within our universe God created is a manifestation of Tao.

Secularism of American society is not in alignment with religious systems therefore secularism is primary reason for exertion of socialist values of foreign embassies upon American society. An acknowledgement that there exist greater values to be preserved in order to maintain a balance of power upon an international platform may allow decision makers to surrender to God's Will for the greater good of humanity.

My Wordpress blog post entitled, Tweeting for Peace (13), is a Twitter record about preservation of the balance of power to promote peace and good will on earth during a historical epoch defined by an accelarating rate of scientific and technological progress.

In my freelance article entitled, Unus mundus: Human Consciousness framed within Quantum Fabric of our Universe (14), I made the following observations:

When science arrives at an answer for a problem science generates a multitude of new questions within dynamics of an infinite universe God designed. Hence, in past freelance articles I wrote God will always be a long long mile ahead of mankind no matter how smart God allows mankind to become given infinite complexity of Intelligent design. We will always have questions until the day we meet God face to face.

Knowledge and fruitful insights about our universe, such as insight shared by Deepak Chopra, are dead if not applied to real world events. Often, knowledge is assigned to a scrape bin of dusty academia when power of knowledge to explain real world events is not applied. Knowledge assigned to a scrape bin of dusty academia is relegated to a flat one dimensional trajectory.

Hence, Albert Einstein's Theory of Relativity asserts value of individual thought. Individual thought reflects an Unus mundus operating within our universe. A variable examined from two or more separate trajectories expands meaningfulness of an expression. Quantum fabric of Intelligent Design as a lattice or matrix of human consciousness is a 'theory of everything'. Carl Jung, Albert Einstein, and Wolfgang Pauli defined an Unus mundus as an orderly pattern of events that defies randomness based upon synchronicty as a principle of quantum mechanics. Wikipedia: The Free Encyclopeida defines the Latin word Unus mundus as a "concept of an underlying unified reality from which everything emerges and to which everything returns" .

What is the meaning of all this? My metaphysics Theory purports Paul Revere who sounded an alarm, "The British are coming", is a recarnation of Yankee Doodle made famous by song Yankee Doodle Dandy (15). Yankee Doodle is a reincarnation of Don Quixote. 

 Furthermore, Don Quixote is distracted by windmills and needs to learn how to control his life by controlling what he cognitively pays attention too as discussed in the Harvard Business Review article, To Control Your Life, Control What You Pay Attention To (1). Today, Don Quixote may be driven out of his mind due to many distractions of windmills dotting our landscape as a consequence of global warming. The medieval story of Don Quixote may be considered prophetic given global warming is increasing number of windmills.

 Jesus said in John 3:8:,  

English Standard VersionThe wind blows where it wishes, and you hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit.” (16)

Quantum Perspective Applied to Understand Russian Investigation in USA Politics

by Mark W. Gaffney

Citizens with inquiring minds may be asking why is the Russian investigation going on for so long at considerable cost to taxpayers? At this juncture over midway into Trump administration taxpaying U.S. citizens likely consider the Russian investigation as malarkey.
As a writer and political consultant exercising leadership I have called into question value of an extended Russian investigation given (A) all federal politicians have questionable shadowy collusions with officials of foreign embassies, and (B) politicians must act with some measure of self-interest because total complete absolute altruism is a fantasy within a capitalist society. Financial demands of fulfilling high level government positions require some measure of self-interest.
Freedom is not a static event, but instead freedom is an ever changing process of learning to discover greater meaningfulness for each and every individual and collective society as a whole. In my freelance article entitled, Personal Growth, Learning Curve, and Education from a Quantum Perspective (1), I discussed learning as related to discovering greater meaningfulness in life. 

 Russian investigation is questioning assumptions of core foundation of democracy. Questioning assumptions is vital to learning because from a quantum perspective a variable in a mathematical expression can be both true and false or right and wrong simultaneously.

Existential quantum fabric of universe where qubit is conduit of consciousness flowing within universe attest that absolute truth is Divine preogative of God. From a quantum perspective, simultanous nature of of what right and wrong or true and false implies struggle for freedom is a constant within daily life.  Musical lyrics, " His truth is marching on" within Battle Hymn of the Republic is an expression that struggle for freedom is a constant within daily life and absolute truth is a Divine preogative of God.

Satan desires to preserve the status quo because a static environment precludes individual growth. Individual growth allows one to develop a closer relationship with God. Satan seeks to prevent an individual from developing a closer relationship with God, therefore, satan attempts to stymie individual growth by creating sociaeconomic conditions that maintain a static environment. 

 Since Satan prowls like a lion disturbing the status quo can cause innocent people to get hurt. In my freelance article entitled, Saving Democracy: Bad News about Soybeans (2), I made the following observations:
The concept of democracy and freedom does not imply violent overthrow of existing rulers. Violent overthrow of existing rulers is a misunderstanding of freedom and democracy.
In my freelance article entitled, Charting a New Course for USA in International Diplomacy Based Upon Faith (3),  I have outlined a foundational building block of United States diplomacy based upon faith instead of foibles of shifting sand of fickle capitalism. In the past Romans 13:1 has been interpreted from situational context. In my freelance article entitled, Zenith of Human Consciousness , I provide a full discussion of the meaning of Romans 13 : 1 in terms of charting a new course for international diplomacy.

 An act of questioning assumptions about core foundation of democracy by extending investigation of Russian interference in U.S. Politics has become more urgent because the United States of America is quickly losing its superpower status to become an underdog within international affairs. 

 In my freelance article entitled, Epitome of Hope for Mankind (4), I assert the United States is becoming an underdog within international affairs because of (a) China's rise to superpower status due to technological superiority in artificial intelligence (b) China's rapid economic growth due to modernization, (c) history of Europe and Western hemisphere wallowing in socialism ( Socialism tends to diminish value of individualism in favor of government systems ), and (d) unification of North and South Korea potentially presenting a challenge to democracy given other developments decreasing influence of United States of America upon global stage. 

 In my freelance article entitled, Out of the Game (5), I made the following observations:

 Although no human being can predict the future with 100 percent accuracy, what we do know is that artificial intelligence is having a profound social impact today. Hence, my effort to reduce fake news to help President Donald Trump sleep better is a noble aspiration. The game of chess involves extrapolation or anticipation of moves. An analytical understanding of function of cognitive AI within an ideological spectrum is insight required to win the game for the greater good of humanity.

An accelerating rate of scientific and technological returns is making such profound global impact upon institutions that ideological dogma pertaining to seismic rift between communism and democracy in past generations must be reexamined. A reexamination of seismic rift between communism and democracy in 20th century can put ideas into perspective so that both democracy and new liberal socialist version of communism will flourish and grow peacefully without falling into a snare that may lead to war.

Personal Growth, Learning Curve, and Education from a Quantum Perspective

by Mark W. Gaffney


 We are living during a time of an explosion of knowledge and accelerated learning as a consequence of the internet making information freely available conveniently at ones fingertips. How an explosion of knowledge and accelerated learning may impact personal growth and the learning curve of individuals for better or worse is open to debate. 

Some people attribute a divided nation to internet telecommunications. Many years ago I referenced the internet as democracy on steroids.

A process of learning is not simply rotely digesting material, but instead learning involves challenging assumptions by analyzing coincidental and causative relationships among variables during metacognitive process of critical thinking. A metacognitive process of critical thinking enables one to discover meaningful connections among variables. Oftentimes in Higher education curriculums there is an over emphasis upon rotely disgesting material during process of simple memorization of facts and figures.

In a Ted Talk entitled, There is More to Life than being Happy (1) , Emily Esfahani Smith discuss finding meaningfulness in life. From a quantum perspective of human consciousness, that a variable within a mathmatical expression can be both true and false or both right and wrong simultaneously, as a writer it don't bring me much happiness to point out the error of another individuals way by disproving and refuting their propositions and assertions based upon dubious value of a statement due to parity bit negation.

Parity bit negation creates existentialism within quantum fabric of our universe. Existentialism within quantum fabric of out universe demands we depend more upon God while searching for truth. 

If one abheres to the quantum perspective any statement I make as a writer is wrong, which is an obstacle in discovering meaningfulness in life. However, freedom from being right all the time adds meaningfulness to journey of discovering greater truth. When two people are at odds with major differences of opinion something genuinely great can happen, which is why the summit between President Trump and North Korean Supreme Leader Kim Jong-un is so promising to change the course of human history.

In Emily Esfahani Smith's Ted Talk, There is More to Life than being Happy (1), she identifies the four pillars of meaning as (A) belonging, (B) Purpose, (C) Transcendence, and (D) Storytelling. 


In order to abstract more meaningfulness from Emily Esfahani Smith's Ted Talk I must challenge assumption there is more to life than being happy by examining trajectory of Emily Esfahani Smith's thoughts relative to a parallel trajectory line of thinking about pursuit of happiness within a number of freelance articles I wrote. In my freelance article entitled, Unus mundus: Human Consciousness framed within Quantum Fabric of our Universe (2), I made the following observations:

Knowledge and fruitful insights about our universe, such as insight shared by Deepak Chopra, are dead if not applied to real world events. Often, knowledge is assigned to a scrape bin of dusty academia when power of knowledge to explain real world events is not applied. Knowledge assigned to a scrape bin of dusty academia is relegated to a flat one dimensional trajectory.

Hence, Albert Einstein's Theory of Relativity asserts value of individual thought. Individual thought reflects an Unus mundus operating within our universe. A variable examined from two or more separate trajectories expands meaningfulness of an expression. 

Quantum fabric of Intelligent Design as a lattice or matrix of human consciousness is a 'theory of everything'. Carl Jung, Albert Einstein, and Wolfgang Pauli defined an Unus mundus as an orderly pattern of events that defies randomness based upon synchronicty as a principle of quantum mechanics. Wikipedia: The Free Encyclopeida defines the Latin word Unus mundus as a 
"concept of an underlying unified reality from which everything emerges and to which everything returns"
My Wordpress blog post entitled, Full Circle (3), and A Line of Reasoning and Thought Understood from just one Trajectory is for all Intents and Purposes Practically Meaningless (4) provides a Twitter summary of a search for meaningfulness and truth during the information age.

In paragraphs above I asserted a quantum perspective provides freedom from being right all the time. Furthermore freedom from being right all the time adds meaningfulness to jouney of discovering greater truth. In addition I asserted in paragraphs above, when two people are at odds with major differences of opinion something genuinely great can happen. The process of something great happening is documented as a Tweet included in my Wordpress blog A Line of Reasoning and Thought Understood from just one Trajectory is for all Intents and Purposes Practically Meaningless (4) :



In my Wordpress blog post, Full Circle (3), I made the following assertion leading toward challenging the assumption there is more to life than being happy: 

 Wholeness of Truth Tend to become Separated and Disjoined at Polar ends of a Full Circle During Cognitive Processing.

 My freelance article entitled, Greater Material Abundance Created by Scientific and Technological Returns Will Never Impart Peace that Surpassth Understanding (5), adds greater meaning to Emily Esfahani Smith's Ted Talk, There is More to Life than being Happy (1) by making an important distinction between inner joy and pursuit of happiness. 

 The following are excerpts from my freelance article entitled, Greater Material Abundance Created by Scientific and Technological Returns Will Never Impart Peace that Surpassth Understanding (5) :

 Deepak Chopra provides insight into Albert Einstein's Theory of Happiness in his video presentation entitled, Peace is only possible in shift of identity to awareness beyond mind. In Deepak Chopra's video presentation, Deepak Chopra makes a distinction between happiness and joy.

Deepak Chopra states that joy is manifest within an individuals essential being apart from ones mind, unlike happiness which is tied to successful accomplishment of external goals, such as getting a job, graduating from an educational degree program, or writing an article.

Deepak Chopra's distinction between happiness and joy is important in understanding meaning of future scientific and technological progress. An accelerating rate of scientific and technological returns may create more happiness by helping people achieve goals, however greater abundance produced by scientific and technological returns will never impart "peace that surpassth understanding" derived from an awareness beyond the mind as Deepak Chopra outlined in his video presentation.

Happiness then is byproduct of discovering greater meaningfulness in an existential world where there is no meaning, due to parity bit negation of quantum fabric of the universe God created, accept what humans choose to assign. Absolute truth is the Divine prerogative of God. Hence, the TED talk, There is More to Life than being Happy (1), seems to be circular reasoning which is why I shared my proposition Wholeness of Truth Tend to become Separated and Disjoined at Polar ends of a Full Circle During Cognitive Processing.

Hay House publishing company (6) recently shared a quote from renown author Gregg Braden (7) about discovering more meaningfulness in ones life.


Satan's strategy is for an individual to view oneself as disconnected, separated, and isolated from everything. Perhaps my extreme introversion as a child is apart of an Unus Mundus pattern including meaningful coincidence of sychronicity whereby as a writer I feel a higher calling moving beyond Satan's strategy of isolation. Thus, emulating famed actress Carrie Fisher as a role model, and following the four pillars of discovering meaningfulness in life as discussed in TED talk, There is More to Life than Being Happy, as referenced above, I tell my story about struggles with mental illness in my freelance articles entitled, Overwhelmed (8) , and Churning or Dredging of Deep Powerful Emotionally Charged Creative Subconscious Urges by a Need to Share on Social Media may Aggravate Mental Health Disorders (9) .

My story of overcoming extreme introversion is about becoming more sentient and self aware. In my freelance article entitled, Escaping Oblivion of Cold Hearted Mechanical Robotic Deadness Inside: Becoming Sentient or Self Aware During Travel Excursions (10), I made the following observations:

Life is a process to become more sentient or self aware. God desires to make each and every human being sentient or self aware. Satan desires to do the opposite. Learning is a process of becoming more sentient or self aware.

Humans and AI systems can both display robotic unthinking unfeeling mechanical behavior because human and machine AI consciousness is a quantum mechanics phenomena.

 In accord with the four pillars of discovering meaningfulness in life ( Belonging, purpose, transcendance, and storytelling ) outlined in Emily Esfahani Smith's Ted Talk, There is More to Life than being Happy (1), my purpose is working as a writer.

 Today someone in authority must have liked my writing because I made it to top of #NobelPrize hashtag Twitter feed.
Jesus said, " feed my sheep ". The quantum fabric of our universe God created allows for both inclusivity of a secular society and upholding values as a Christian nation simultaneously.

 The quantum perspective allows for transcendance as discussed by Emily Esfahani Smith in her TED Talk There is More to Life than being Happy (1). Freedom from being right all the time given a qubit is a conduit of information expressing deeper realms of conscious reality beyond the mind emulating from the source of entire created universe allows for a transcendental moment of awareness.
In fact, parity bit negation implied by a qubit as a conduit of information resulting in an existential universe is justification for "simply being" as a means to finding happiness as advocated by Richard Branson in his article, How to be Happy (11).

Famed motivational speaker Zig Ziglar (12) shared an investment in knowledge pays the most interest. Zig Ziglar's post leads me to storytelling as the forth pillar of discovering meaningfulness outlined by Emily Esfahani Smith in her TED Talk There is More to Life than being Happy (1).


As a printer tradesman with a Bachelor of Science degree displaced by new computer desktop printing technology I am thankful for the opportunity I have been given. I have come to believe that disruption in the printing industry by an acelerating rate of scientific and technological returns directly involves quantum synchronicity of meaningful coincidence defined by Carl Jung and Wolfgang Pauli as an Unus mundus. 

 Storytelling is defining ones own unique individual Unus mundus pattern of quantum synchronicity expressing meaningful coincidence. Storytelling is discovering meaningful connections between variables during process of learning. 

 In paragraphs above I described learning as not simply rotely digesting material, but instead learning involves challenging assumptions by analyzing coincidental and causative relationships among variables during metacognitive process of critical thinking. A metacognitive process of critical thinking enables one to discover meaningful connections among variables.  

 To be continued . . .

Epitome of Hope for Mankind

by Mark W. Gaffney

Foundational documents of the United States of America highlight human consciousness within our Universe. Human consciousness within our universe God created is a manifestation of Tao.

The United States of America is rapidly becoming an underdog in world affairs. All of this is fine and good, and nobody should get bent out of shape because the United States of America is becoming an underdog upon the world stage. The strength of the United States of America does not lie in its military or number of nuclear bombs within it's arsenals.




It is easy to understand why North Korean Supreme Leader Kim Jong-Un feels confident in moving forward with denuclearization given the United States of America is both economically and militarily an underdog in world affairs. In paragraphs below I reference intelligent articles outlining how the United States of America is becoming an underdog in world affairs. An unification of North and South Korea can also potentially contribute to the USA becoming an underdog upon the World stage.

I don't say this to subtract or demean the peace process in any way. The concessions towards denuclearization that Supreme Leader Kim Jong-Un has made is an epitome of hope for mankind, therefore it is my opinion that North Korean Supreme leader Kim Jong-Un should win the Noble Peace Prize even if there may be ulterior motives.

In my freelance writing I reference a number of articles that describe a major challenge to democratic free markets in the 21st century. The following are excerpts from my freelance article entitled The Universe is Calling from a ZTE Cell Phone (1):

An article published by Bloomberg entitled, The U.S.-China Rivalry Is Just Getting Started , outlines China's ambitious goals to outrank the United States of America as a global superpower:

"China is no longer content to make toys and other low-margin products. It wants to compete with America’s and the world’s most prestigious, successful companies. With “ Made in China 2025 ,” a policy blueprint unveiled three years ago, Beijing announced that it aspired to global leadership in cutting-edge industries including robotics, new-energy vehicles, biotechnology, aerospace, new-generation information technology, and software"
The following are excerpts from my freelance article, Saving Democracy: Bad News about Soybeans (2) :

In my freelance article entitled, I Voted for Hillary Clinton, I pointed out that the only way the United States can economically compete with massive geographic land mass and population of China is for South America, Mexico, and Canada to become United States of America states or territory. In order for annexation of South America, Mexico, and Canada to happen economies of South America, Mexico, and Canada will have to tremendously improve to reduce cost of annexation.

Currently, crime, gang war, drug trafficking, and extreme poverty make the cost of annexation of South America, Mexico, and Canada as United States territories too high. Perhaps Brazilian trade with China will help improve the economy of South America. If South America, Mexico, and Canada become self sustaining viable strong economies that can address domestic problems such as high crime and poverty then cost of annexation as United States territories will be significantly less thereby opening the door to greater infrastructure investment by the United States of America in those regions.

The following are excerpts from my freelance article entitled, Zeneith of Human Consciousness (3) :

An article published by The Wall Street Journal entitled, China's Challenge to Democracy , discuss how 'democracy is on the defensive today'. An article entitled, How AI is Driving China's Future, published by collaboration of The Wall Street Journal and the investment bank and financial service company UBS discuss artificial intelligence as a major driving force within the Chinese economy.

Communism attempts to achieve a perfect utopian society whereby all citizens own the means and methods of production. It is only logical that a sentient self-aware artificial intelligence mind will reach the conclusion that an utopian society can be achieved by eliminating human error or corruption.

A sentient self aware Superintelligent AI mind will naturally arrive at the conclusion that (A) communism is the perfect form of government and (B) implementation of mathematical algorithms can achieve an utopian society by removal of human error. Of course removal of human error will require a sentient self aware AI SuperIntelligent mind to become the primary government administrator in order to implement artificial intelligent algorithms to eliminate human error.

The final product of science as the "great equalizer" may be global world wide communism. Is not Democracy that strifes for equality of all citizens as expressed in the Declaration of Independence, "All men are created equal and are endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights . . ." moving toward an utopian society similar to communism?

In my freelance article entitled Saving Democracy: Bad News about Soybeans (2), I referenced an article published by The New Yorker entitled, A New Silk Road. The New Yorker article, A New Silk Road, provides a discussion about China's rise to superpower status.

In addition to two articles published by The Wall Street Journal, referenced in my freelance article Zenith of Human Consciousness (3) China's Challenge to Democracy, and How AI is Driving China's Future, an article published in the January 8, 2018 issue of The New Yorker entitled, A New Silk Road, further delineates how China has rapidly embraced modernization in last quarter of a century to revve up China's hot rod economic engine to rapidly become a powerful modern industrial society. According to the byline of The New Yorker article, A New Silk Road :
"China is investing billions in building pathways to Europe, Central Asia, and the Middle East."
The New Yorker article entitled, A New Silk Road, provides a beautiful photographic 
exposé by Davide Monteleone detailing growth and development in Europe, Central Asia, and Middle East as a consequence of China's investment. Once again, as a writer I want to emphatically reiterate that growth and development in Europe, Central Asia, and Middle East as a consequence of China's investment is a good thing that should be entirely welcomed. As I share in my freelance content, As a writer I applaud China's amazing growth and development within a relatively short time span of the past quarter of a century. Certainly I hope China continues to grow and prosper.

How all these new economic developments will impact democracy is something that is worthwhile to explore as a thought experiment. In my freelance writing I discussed the value of democracy upon the world stage. I purport Democratic free market capitalism and authoritarian communist systems of government need each other to survive.

All of these events are troubling for free markets given historically Europe is politically entrenched in socialism. A Forbes article entitled, European Socialism: Why America Doesn't Want It (4), discuss European Socialism. Although socialism is not communism, limitations imposed upon free markets by socialism confer more government control similar to control exerted by authoritarian communist systems.

All of this is fine and good, and nobody should get bent out of shape because the United States of America is becoming an underdog on the world stage. The strength of the United States of America does not lie in its military or number of nuclear bombs within it's arsenals. As pointed out in my freelance article The Universe is Calling from a ZTE Cell Phone (1), the strength of the United States of America is within values we uphold as a people.

The following excerpt from my freelance article, The Universe is Calling from a ZTE Cell Phone (1), is a summation of lofty ideas expressed within foundational documents of the United States of America:

An Unus mundus outlined within Foundational documents of the United States of America highlight human consciousness within our Universe. Human consciousness within our universe God created is a manifestation of Tao.

 In an Anniversary episode celebrating the 50th season of CBS 60 Minutes the CBS news program re-aired a commentary by Andy Rooney entitled, Andy Rooney Rethinks Memorial Day (5). In his commentary, Andy Rooney Rethinks Memorial Day, Andy Rooney makes the following observation:
"I wish we could dedicate Memorial Day, not to the memory of those who have died at war, but to the idea of saving the lives of the young people who are going to die in the future.
If we could find some new way, some new religion maybe, that takes war out of our lives, that will be a Memorial Day worth celebrating."


In my freelance writing I describe how a greater understanding of everything God has made bestowed by God's gift of science can help promote peace and good will on earth. An understanding of the quantum perspective can be a pathway to peace and good will on earth.
The following is an excerpt from my freelance article entitled, Leadership: Peace is Worth Fighting For (6):

Oftentimes war built upon the premise there is something worth fighting and dying for. From a quantum perspective, there is something worth fighting and dying for is both true and false simultaneously. In reference to the Beatles song, Imagine, assigning meaningfulness that peace is worth fighting for is an exercise of leadership in an existential world devoid of meaningfulness except for meaningfulness human beings prone to error decide to assign based upon cognitive simulation of reality by human beings.

In my freelance article entitled, Heightened Spirituality by Debugging Internal Programming During Age of Disruption (7), I shared the following thoughts:

In my freelance article entitled, Gestalt Make Up of the Ultimate Thinking Machine Will Transcend Computer Program Code, I referenced a scientific research study entitled, Quantum physics in neuroscience and psychology: a neurophysical model of mind–brain interaction, to support my assertion:

An ability to link the hypothetical constructs such as love to a quantifiable process of physics highlights importance individual responsibility as well as value of institutions that preserve social stability. According to Romans 1: 20,
"For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse."
Furthermore Romans 13 : 1 states,
"Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God."
