When making decisions in this world, the weights are often arbitrary and capricious. Rational decision-making requires weights by relative significance, importance, and priority. We must shift away from a political world where weights are based on politics. Politics can be introduced only at the end of a rational decision-making process to reach a decision. Therefore, politics should represent gut feeling at the end of a decision-making process. Today, we put politics first. I would like to see decisions made on science first by including everybody on earth as data collectors, observers, ground truthers, hypothesis generators, monitors, etc. For example, decision-making in the political world often relies on the market-based economy as a priority. Take, for instance, the horrible fires on the West Coast.  People would suggest buying more fire trucks or adding more personnel using the market-based economy approach. It is just like the crime problem in the United States; where we add more police officers, the more horrific crime we have. However, it often has more to do with the intensity of the news reporting.  However, I am in favor of solving the problem of crime and wildfires before they have a chance to occur or using holistic methods to prevent such horrible loss of life and property damage. In the case of wildfires, the next generation of buildings should be fireproof homes and businesses. The lost homes are in a fire-prone ecosystem, which won’t change anytime soon.  Alternatively, in the case of crime, we must map it out and have everyone get involved and include everyone. Including everyone on earth would mean no one can get into their survival zone suffering level. Everyone will get ecological equilibrium compensation to keep them above those survival zones’ suffering line in the form of equity. As an analogy, you can think of it as Social Security for everybody on earth when they need it and want it. However, in this situation, people must contribute somehow, however they’re able. The out-of-survival zone equity line is funded by the profit percentage of all the businesses and corporations on earth. The roles and the similarity foundation are called similarity roles and primarily involve the Commons on Earth.  Suppose we are all holistically included and accepted on earth. In that case, we have a similar condition where we take care of each other, our environment, and our Commons together, as we are all stakeholders and stewards of our natural resources, environment, and society.  On top of this similarity foundation is a unique diversity pyramid where everyone can have their life purpose exceptionally diversely, which satisfies most people’s holistic adaptive capitalism instinct.

In conclusion, the following steps are recommended for rational decision-making.

1. Include everyone on earth
2. Accept everyone on earth
3. Eliminate the liberty concept, and then everyone becomes relatively free
4. Everyone becomes hypothesis generators, monitors, ground truthers, observers, and data collectors according to their interests and the needs of the broader communities
5. Everyone is brought up to a similarity level in the similarity foundation as a redundancy
6. Everyone contributes to the Commons in a relative way
7. Everyone is involved in science
8. Everyone becomes members of communities, from local to global.
9. Everyone is involved in a community census
10. Everyone becomes holistically incentivized with inspirational incentives
11. Voting is done in a rational decision-making way
12. Rational decision-making should be employed, getting ideas from everybody on earth
13. Everyone should be involved in politics to get a gut feel after the rational decision-making process
14. Everyone is involved in a similar and unique diversity way, leading to similarity, Commons, an exceptionally unique life’s purpose, and exceptional unique diversity in holistic adaptive capitalism.
15. As a redundancy, all religions should be brought together in a similarity foundation, including a unique diversity pyramid to have diversity, unity, and similarity among all faiths.  Agreement with what they have in common is essential.  Anyone and everyone can go to any House of God on Earth.
16. Everyone on Earth goes through holistic inclusion while receiving the integrated device
17. Everyone becomes holistic, positive energy, well-motivated people in a loving, caring, sharing, giving, forgiving, genuine kindness striving way to bring about conditions of comfort, joy, love, hope, faith, and sustainable striving happiness in context with natural earth striving, natural humanity striving, and natural spirituality with God approach to living on Earth.

Serenopathic drugs of natural origin may satisfy cumulative totality impact assessment.  There are apparent drugs that help in our world with pain.  However, it has been difficult to do a cumulative totality impact assessment to understand it.  It confuses me sometimes because God gave us our natural resources, environment, and minds to determine what to use in nature.  These are so-called licit drugs that are derived initially from nature but may go through synthetic processing that may not be healthy for us.  What comes to mind as far as illicit drugs are concerned is marijuana. I know it has been approved for use in most states, but the federal government is still against it.  The other thing that comes to mind is natural mushrooms and their use as food, teas, etc.  It leaves people very confused as to what to do.  We need a cumulative totality impact assessment to determine the cumulative totality of health potential on both the person and broader levels up to society.  With the We Me Earth Unidiversity Earth Research Explorers Cycle, everyone contributes to understanding things like this. Since everyone is involved, everyone goes through their own experiences and can shed light on everything that contributes to a cumulative totality impact assessment.  Therefore, this cycle contributes to finding knowledge that is close to reality about whether to do something or not.  It is my philosophy that those drugs that are closer to nature may be healthier for you.  However, the pharmaceutical industry produces drugs that are highly manufactured and altered, making them unnatural, which leads me to believe that they could be contributing to cancer.  The healthiest natural drugs are natural endorphins produced when involved with strength, fitness, and conditioning.  Hence, strength, fitness, and conditioning are the most holistic way forward.  However, when it’s not an option, serenopathic drugs of natural origin may be a solution to our problems

Earth Research Explorers identified nature as worthy of everyone exploring, as well as humanity and spirituality with God. Interestingly, in the year 396-430ad or so, Saint Augustine professed that we should question the beauty of the air, the beauty of the sea, the beauty of the sky, and the beauty of the earth. I think God wants us to explore the world because the more you understand the beauty of the world, the more you will understand God. Augustine further says that Nature is constantly changing, which means it adapts to us as humans.  This also validates the need to research and explore our planet. Consequently, it makes sense that exploration of the earth and nature Leads us closer to God. Maybe we can learn more about God by exploring nature and learning about God from the Bible.  I learned about Saint Augustine from the Catholic catechism. (as read by Father Mike Schmitz  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRpDxjB9K9U).   Saint Augustine supports Earth Research Explorers and the Unidiversity Research Explorers Cycle.  My early revelation about God in nature was when I learned about serotinous cones within fire-prone ecosystems in the western United States. It was hard for me to believe that evolution could have created serotinous cones so seeds could be dispersed and opened on the landscape only when fire was present.  God also wants us to be stewards and stakeholders of Earth and nature. Learning about nature helps us to become holistic, well-motivated, and positive energy people.  If we create digital monuments all over planet Earth, we can have a university on Earth to explore.  Likewise, it will enable everyone on earth to go to college or university throughout their lives.  This idea reminds me that it is like going on vacation and learning everything you can learn while getting credit.  One could tailor one’s interests according to one’s desires and life’s purpose. They could focus more on nature, humanity, and spirituality with God’s approach to living on Earth. Having digital coordinates as monuments on planet Earth allows us to explore them at our own pace.  This idea also allows everyone to go to school or university throughout their lifetime, starting when they are children.  While living, learning, exploring, and investing on planet Earth, we can also get things done while we are there. It is similar to missions and the need to tend to our forests, lakes, rivers, humanity, and spirituality.  Tending to the needs of our world, missions, and explorations can be accomplished from local to global.  It is also like filling up a digital diary throughout your lifetime to have memories to last your and your descendant’s lifetimes.  That would be a great way to monitor change as multiple generations get involved.  Each generation could hypothesize changes that occur from generation to generation. Hence, we will be able to question the beauty of the Earth and tend to the cumulative totality of our needs while experiencing joy.

We must transition to a holistic, well-motivated, positive energy living, learning, exploring, and investing experience on earth. We must transition from a negative energy, reactionary, reductionistic world. In doing so, we must consider relative priorities, relative significance, and relative importance in our decisions.  Also, we must prioritize a holistic, well-motivated, positive energy and holistic inclusion of everybody on earth. Everyone on earth must be holistically accepted and included.  I call this a holistic blobification effort; over time, more and more people get blobifyed.  As each person receives acceptance and is included, they, too, start holistic blobification for everybody else; therefore, it is kind of like a candle-lighting ceremony representing an exponential progression. If everyone were an earth research explorer or a nature-striving/humanity-striving person, we could use this as the unifying approach to living on Earth. This unifying principle will include everyone, everything, everywhere on earth. Instead of everyone becoming police officers, we can become nature-striving lovers, humanity-striving lovers, and spirituality-striving God-approach lovers.  We should all strive to be loving, caring, sharing, giving, forgiving, and genuine kindness striving to bring about conditions of comfort, joy, love, faith, and sustainable striving happiness to fulfill those conditions of natural humanity, striving for nature striving and natural spirituality striving with God approach.   We should start appreciating what God gave us and caring for our resources, environment, people, and nature.  Therefore, we become stakeholders and stewards of everything, everyone, everywhere on earth. Then, everyone on Earth can receive their well-planned integrated device from the Earth Unidiversity Earth Research Explorers Cycle.

Learning from Miraculous Nature

Rick Simmons

10/16/2024

Nature is miraculous. It was meant for us to learn as much as we could. Learning from nature helps humanity in many ways. God also wanted us to learn from Nature, People, the Natural Environment, Humanity, and the Bible. He tried to put things through a positive energy lens in the context of positive energy, nature.  However, you can also learn about extreme competition from nature and functions like a predator feeding off prey in our world. It depends on the way we look at our world that matters.  I see nature as a miraculous creation because it teaches us to adapt and evolve towards a more desired future, like ecological succession.  As succession occurs, we adapt to a more stable climax superorganism desired future condition taking care of our people, planet, and everything else.  If we were all part of ecological niche organizations functioning in the context of Holistic Nature and Holistic Humanity, we would always understand our positioning as it relates to our natural environment and humanity.  Ecological niche organizations are like holistic science. They strive to do no harm and err on the side of caution while keeping the context holistic because everything is related to everything else.   If we were all niche organizations, we would function together with everything else like we have started to do in our business world. However, there is too much extreme competition, price points, and many brands and material goods. Accordingly, there is too much waste and too much waste of potential positive energy. There should be a similarity foundation planning level that determines our needs first rather than blindly following our dreams like the American dream.  Holistic planning helps guide us towards desired future conditions instead of blindly pursuing the American dream alone. We need a map to guide us in the right direction as well. It is like repeatedly locating the same kind of business in the same poor location and expecting a different result each time. This is sort of like false logic in many ways. Traditional business is crazy in many ways.  Why not put the American dream in context with holistic rationality, holistic reasonableness, and realistic holistic dreams of all of us together as a similarity condition?  I have noticed that several people have learned that Nature is a sort of guide towards a more holistic future, like the concept of “greening” our cities by planting trees and parks.  I have also noticed community gardens growing on rooftops and in our communities worldwide.  Bringing green space, nature, and gardens to our cities and communities makes much sense and should be prioritized worldwide.  Niche organizations also have niche products, creating holistic context and connectivity to everything else. These niche products also strive to do no harm and err on the side of caution because they work together with a natural system instead of against it.  Therefore, niche products produce nothing but positive energy fruit in our world in context with everything else. Hence, they, too, require extensive planning instead of blindly following an out-of-context American dream.  It would be great to work together with planning, environmental justice, social justice, environmental organizations, and a natural earth striving humanity as well.  Ecological equilibrium compensation ought to be the future dynamic funding mechanism, and it should be part of the holistic planning effort and show us where and when to allocate.  In a way, how we do things today is planning out of context with holistic rationality.  Ecological equilibrium compensation anticipates and strives to determine needs ahead of time by an impact assessment and needs assessment instead of waiting around for reactionary mechanisms. It is more of a systematic approach, keeping everything in equilibrium instead of out-of-control oscillations associated with instability.  By knowing nature, humanity, and all the other teachings, we can do what God wants us to do.  Consequently, we will strive towards a more holistic future for everyone everywhere on Earth.  Learning and exploring Nature is vital.

War

Richard Thomas Simmons

10/10/2024

Even though people involved in the wartime economy are tremendously intelligent and logical, on the broadest holistic scale, war is Earth’s most ignorant, irrational concept. Imagine the contributions they could make to a holistic economy. Generally, it represents a tremendous waste of energy to blow up infrastructure and all people’s homes and buildings, not to mention the extreme loss of lives. Foolishly, war is pollution and creates vast amounts of pollution.  Moreover, it causes people to suffer in extreme ways, not to mention all the death and destruction.  It is like a tremendous, manufactured hurricane that goes in and completely wastes an area with the expectation to build it up again. War is dumb.  Hence, it makes no sense to do such a crazy thing.  It is one major reason we need unification on Earth.  My greatest fear is that war is part of the infinite variabilization toolbox.  In this circumstance, war is a distraction and diversion to something else of greater value than those considered expendable geographies.

We must transition to a similar foundation everywhere on Earth: loving, caring, sharing, giving, forgiving, and genuine kindness, striving to have comfort, joy, love, hope, faith, and sustainable happiness. War satisfies none of the above criteria; it is irrational. Unless we transition to the above foundation, it will be easy to manufacture war as distractions and diversions from other big-picture concepts on Earth.  While we create this foundation, it makes sense to start planning around the scarcity issue people discuss with current economic theory.  Hence, the satisfaction of the foundation, coupled with planning on Earth, will bring us closer to desired future conditions. 

The We Me cycle allows us to loudly and proudly tell those in so-called power that war is dumb. It may take everyone on Earth to share this perspective, but it is worth it. A social media image of a crying little girl with dirt and scratches on her face in war-torn areas reminds us of the urgency of stopping all wars on Earth forever. It is a good idea to share this image around the world.

Once we end war forever, we will transition funding militaries with munitions, bombs, weaponry, tanks, fighter jets, submarines, atomic bombs, and all the infrastructure associated with such functioning to more cumulative totality holistic restoration. The 2.1 trillion spent per year on militaries worldwide will then fund holistic endeavors like ecological equilibrium compensation, missions, health, safety, holistic arbitration, and holistic restoration. Then, we can find social justice, environmental justice, and holistic justice worldwide as a foundation equity condition.

Holistic Justice

Richard Thomas Simmons

10/9/2024

Justice cannot be achieved in a “way things are” world.  How can we have justice if we continue to manufacture war, violence, terrorism, crime, pollution, traditional justice, laws, liberty, wasted energy, etc.? Justice to me means environmental justice, holistic justice, and social justice, which leads to the cumulative totality concept of justice—people in traditional justice transition to holistic justice, which means holistic prevention and holistic awareness. We must adapt beyond traditional conditions towards holistic sustainability, striving towards desired future conditions on Earth.  We must be holistic preventative instead of reactionary reductionist. We must all strive to do our best to solve problems and prevent problems on earth. We are all in this together on Earth.   We all strive for equity and love at the similarity level and unique diversity at the unique diversity level.  We must strive to live, learn, explore, and invest together on Earth. Justice requires a condition where we’re all about love at the most primal level.  We must all learn about nature as well. Nature was God’s gift to us and should give us much exploration and joy. I have written extensively about sharing nature values with pictures and geographic coordinates.   These ideas give us a tremendous opportunity to unite on planet Earth in almost every possible way. We should strive for peace and harmony worldwide, which is a similarity foundation condition. I believe this holistic justice condition would be very pleasing to God as holistic justice mimics love at the foundational, fundamental level.

People living from house prices and Nature?

Rick Simmons

10/4/2024

There is a pattern in home prices over time (See Zillow Data).  This does not represent a true market-based system with natural ups and downs. The market bears any price, and people are willing to pay that price. They took all the naturally beautiful areas from those who just wanted to live a beautiful life and gave them to the extreme capitalists for second homes, etc.  I also had my house taken, and now the price is twice what they paid.  As home prices keep increasing, I fear that people are relying too much on their homes to make income, which causes homes to be out of reach for people closer to nature.  Those less close to nature bought nature up because they could; the same is true for desirable metropolitan areas.  How many people are living from real estate transactions?  What is the average time spent in a home?  Does some mob control the housing market? Do redder areas create homelessness? Extreme inflation opportunism? Irrational exuberance?  Too much flipping?  Too much greed? Is it out of necessity?  Did they take Nature from me and my school?  Do invasions occur in certain regions? Did they take geography from me and the conferences I attended?  What is your hypothesis?  I believe you can do anything you want if you have enough money.

A similarity foundation of love for freedom

Rick Simmons

10/2/2024

All people, especially poorer people, want to be respected and included. It may be one reason permit carry and illegal firearms possession are so popular. At a minimum, people want to be respected as police, officials, or attorneys. I know it is a strange concept, but in many locations, we live in a liberty cycle, police blotter culture. Parents want the best for their children. That may be why, in the fourth grade, my dad said I should be a police officer or Secret Service agent to protect the president. He wanted me to be included, safe, protected, respected and loved. Maybe everyone ought to be promoted to police or holistic arbitration people without guns, of course, to give that society evenness, equity, and minimal well-being that everyone deserves. It would be like a brotherhood and sisterhood of love like Jesus would have wanted. This is just one way to unify people for a foundation similarity condition. I wish everyone would love, respect, care, share, give, forgive, and be kind to one another. All you need is love, like the Beatles song; everything else will fall into place. Love is the fulfillment of the law and everything else, too. You cannot care if you don’t love, you can’t share if you don’t love, etc. I came up with an idea called house shares and home shares in the 1990s, which led to Airbnb and all the others. This idea will not work unless we love one another because respect is also about love. Becoming a police officer, official, or attorney is a liberty cycle extremist perspective, but it would work. The other way is to accept that Love fulfills the law and makes everyone the same from an equity, evenness, and similarity perspective in the similarity foundation. Both ways create real holistic justice, environmental justice, and social justice. However, the freedom way is better than the liberty cycle way because it is all about positive energy. A world without end…

Love is the fulfillment…

Rick Simmons

10/1/2024

I said a while ago that we don’t need the law and even the Ten Commandments if we have love. You don’t kill if you love, you don’t steal if you love, you don’t commit adultery if you love, etc. If you do, you go to reconciliation in the past.  We likely will do so in the future because we strive to do the best we can.  Why not research and transition beyond those things that lead us to sin, even though we are all sinners? What if we are all brought to a similar equity foundation condition out of survival zone suffering?  Why not holistically tell everyone on Earth to prioritize love and explain the rationality that I am trying to propose?  The following is a quote about natural law by Thomas Aquinas:

“For Aquinas, everything has a function (a telos), and the good thing (s) to do are those acts that fulfill that function. Some things, such as acorns and eyes, do that naturally. However, humans are free and need guidance to find the right path. That right path is found through reasoning and generates the “internal” Natural Law” (CSU).  I came up with the idea of holistic prescriptive advice as a holistic preventative natural law satisfying concept.  Natural law and natural healthy living are different from the current law.  Is the natural law a natural concept inherent in nature?

Thomas Aquinas sounds like an early faithful ecologist. It reminds me of the notion that everything is related to and connected. I like the part where the right path is determined by reasoning and rationality, which sounds a lot like science.  Anyway, I think God was working together with Aquinas.  Natural Law can be learned from God’s teachings and Nature.

Two quotes struck me as engaging in the Catechism of the Catholic Church.  The first is “Love is the fulfillment of the law,” and the second is that “Love is the fulfillment of the Ten Commandments,” which led me to combine these two. Love is the fulfillment of the Ten Commandments and the law.  Listening to the catechism was not my first time understanding this, as I considered this in the fourth grade during a period while going to catechism when I asked why we have war when God wants us to be all about love, or we are supposed to be all about Love. I wonder if God meant it in one way for times of war and violence and in the other for times of peace and love. Consequently, one way may lead to freedom, and the other may lead to liberty cycle exclusion and extremism.

 When you combine these ideas, we should emphasize the first syllable in the sentence LOVE, which fulfills the Ten Commandments and the law like freedom.  This means love is all we need, like the Beatles song and the 1960s, if we choose love over war and violence, etc.  If not, then God probably wants to emphasize that Love fulfills the 10 COMMANDMENTS AND THE LAW, which forces you to live in liberty.  Maybe God wants humanity to decide for itself.  Which do you prefer?  I prefer Love fulfills the Ten Commandments and the law.  Imagine the energy wasted on ignorance, preventable suffering, complexity, chaos, negative energy, litigiousness, violence, war, crime, and terrorism while reimagining the positive energy we could allocate towards restoration, positive energy, and holistic rationality.

God loves all people, and everyone should love God above all else with their heart, mind, and soul, which means they should Love above all things.  Life on Earth is about getting to heaven; some people are called earlier than others.  Anyway, I have proposed a similar foundation condition for everyone on Earth that should replace law and possibly the 10 Commandments when you include holistic prescriptive advice—loving, caring, sharing, giving, forgiving, and genuine kindness striving for comfort, joy, love, hope, faith, and sustainable striving happiness in context with natural earth striving, natural humanity striving, and natural spirituality with God approach. In summary, let us be excited about transitioning to how things could be with our desired future conditions on planet Earth.

The world without end…
