NOTES OF THE METRIC MONTHS
FROM 76 ASWW
To the
first note of the year
FROM RICHES TO RAGS
It is better to be remembered as someone who went from riches to rags
than as someone who went from right to wrong behavior, or from 'virtues'
(with its sexist origin) to vice.
75.SLL-76th Southern Early Lent
UN MODÈLE ACHEVÉ ET ... NON ACHEVÉ
Le Modèle neutre-inclusif est un modèle achevé avec ses trois livres :
le Livre des instruments, le Livre des fondamentaux et le Livre des
symboles.
Mais jusqu'à présent, c'était aussi un modèle non achevé sans au moins
un quatrième livre : le
Livre des événements.
76.SMY-76th Southern Equinoctial
UNMOORED FROM THE RELEVANT FOUNDATION
When people are distinguished on the basis of their being (fully)
vaccinated or not against a certain virus, some immediately object to
this vaccination (or, perhaps, any vaccination) being a criterion for
admittance, for instance.
They claim that they are being discriminated against, suggesting that the
distinction drawn, which might be relevant, is irrelevant by definition.
However, there is no adequate morality without the recognition of
relevancy, that is, of the irrelevance, but also of the relevance, of a
distinction made or to be made.
For also this coin has two sides in that a distinction must not be drawn
because it is irrelevant and in that a distinction may, ought to or even
must be drawn because it is relevant.
Those who argue that a distinction is discriminatory only because it is
to their disadvantage, even regardless of their own behavior, are
unmoored from the relevant foundation.
76.SEY-76th Southern Mid-Yule
LET THE WORLD STEW IN WHAT?
The desperate (or cynically 'pragmatic') give up and say, "Let the world
stew in its own bloody juices" or words to that effect.
First of all, they forget, of course, that they do not have the power nor
the authority to allow 'the world' to do or not to do something.
But this mistake is forgivable.
In this particular case they should also use the American rather than the
British swearword: "Let the world stew in its own fucking juices."
This, because the world's contemporary environmental problems are half
caused by explodist copulation which knows of no sustainable population
equilibrium, and therefore of no bounds.
Also this mistake is forgivable, so far as the use of the one word instead
of the other is concerned.
(True, explicitly national and ideological conflicts, such as between two
countries or denominations, are not environmental on the surface, but in
practice they are not only caused by environmental conditions, they may
also contribute to them.)
Most importantly, those who speak of 'the world and its juices' confuse
the world and the human species.
There is even enough to object against when someone says that
'humanity should stew in its own juices', because not all human beings are
equally responsible for the destruction or degradation of nature (among
which 'the climate'), and for violent ideological conflicts (among which
wars of religion).
Some human people may not at all be responsible for the
overconsumption on this planet (promoting the production of arms, for
instance) or the overpopulation (providing for the cannon fodder, for
instance).
Some of them may be responsible for neither, at least to a degree much
less than that of the average citizen's co-responsibility.
However, to suggest that the world should stew in its juices is no
doubt lamentably unforgivable, for the world is so incomparably much more
than that one species that is causing or aggravating most, if not all, of
today's problems on Earth.
What the desperate (or egoistically 'pragmatic') want the whole of nature
on Earth to stew in is the procreative and recreative juices of the
members of one particular species that just cannot get enough: not enough
children for themselves or their community (if not their gods or God), and
not enough of the services and products of their consumerist society (if
not their brands or Brand).
This is the precise and unforgivable flaw in the utterance of those
saying that 'the world should stew in is own bloody juices'.
It is a sigh that will not even heave the untrefoiled grass, yet it
tramples the flower of this suffering planet.

A NEUTRALITY BETWEEN TRIPLE-MAGNITUDE
POLARITIES?
The color analogy which is used in particle physics makes implicit use of
an ad hoc neutrality which fails to resemble the standard one between
single-magnitude polarities, as used in the Model of Neutral-Inclusivity
as well.
However, on closer analysis there appears to be one substrative factor
which builds on the electric charge type of a neutrality centrally
catenated with a negative and a positive polarity.
74.NML-76th Equatorial Month
MEMBERS OF HOMO STULTUS
Stray biologists who have forgotten to stick to their last call the
mammalian species to which they themselves belong "Homo sapiens", the
wise human being or, worse, man.
As far as this deviation from proper science is concerned, they behave as
members of 'Homo stultus', the stupid human being or, worse, man.
76.NML-76th Northern Late Lent
PERSONHOOD
Personhood is not only normatively
superior to the theft or destruction of what people morally own but also
to their oppression; and to all authoritarianism.
75.SML-76th Northern Mid-Lent
NEUTRALITY
Neutralness or neutrality is not
only normatively superior to the unfounded negative but also to the
unfounded positive; that is, to all immoderation, especially extremism.
75.SML-76th Northern Equinoctial
INCLUSIVENESS
Inclusiveness or inclusivity is
not only normatively superior to the exclusivity of aggrandizement but
also to the exclusion of abnegation; that is, to all exclusivism.
75.SML-76th Northern Late Yule
RELEVANCE
Relevance is not only normatively
superior to the irrelevance of arbitrary data but also to unjustified
distinctions or discrimination; that is, to all irrelevantism.
75.SML-76th Northern Mid-Yule
TRUTH
Truth is not only normatively
superior to the falsehood of lies and deceptive tales but also to
promises, even threats, not made good; and to all supernaturalism.
