y<x<z integers
All things are numbers (continuation) Adib Ben Jebara (Tunis) This poster
is
the continuation of the abstract "all things are numbers". Previously,
we
used a restricted axiom of choice, CC(2 through m), countable choice for a
family of sets of 2 through m elements, and we saw that we can move from a
world with non restricted Evil to a world with restricted Evil because the
numbers of attributes of Evil are infinite products of integers and
"most"
of them do not exist in the right mathematical universes. Now, we are going
to see other consequences of restricting Evil. A hint for a proof that souls
are immortal : The number of attributes of souls are integers. Souls are the
counterparts in the philosophical universe of integers in the mathematical
universes. And we have an infinity of universes in which integers are the
same. Thus, souls are immortal. The equation with infinite products
zzz...z...=xx...x...+yy...y... with z>y has no solution in the universe
where only the restricted axiom CC(2 through x) is true. It is because
otherwise the infinite products xx...x... and yy...y... exist but not
zzz...z... and we cannot have a side of the equation existing and the other
not. The counterpart is that the numbers of attributes of Evil cannot be
combined in the right philosophical universes. Once the principals of Good
applied, history stops because principles of Good are not connected to time.
The analogy between mathematical concepts and philosophical ones and
surrounding the relation number of attributes can be reversed to better
understand the mathematical universes from the understanding of the
philosophical universes. As time, the counterpart of history, ceases also to
exist, we could be at once in all the infinity of mathematical universes
where only CC(2 through m) is true for every integer m. Now, if Evil is
restricted, there is a problem about fate. It could be argued that people
are doing evil because of their fate. To that we reply that fate has
multiple readings. And because of the multiple readings, freedom of choice
is allowed.
