Faith as Post-Traumatic Cognitive Dissonance?

Good Friday   April 3, 2026

Gen 22:1-18 Ps 22
Heb.10:1-25 John 18:1-19:37

Lectionary Link

Time and the passing of time forces us to "deal" with the past, whether we want to or not.  We cannot change the past.  And it is not mentally healthy to deny that it happened.  And there are some things that have happened that all we can say is that we will continually be horrified by them, because there is no way that we can say that they are good without saying that they were necessary to assert that the present born from the horrifying is made better because of those horrifying things.  That certain people "learned" from the Holocaust does not justify it having occurred and certainly does not give any permission to re-define it as in any way providential.  The same goes for the many genocides which clutter and stain the history of human inhumanity.

We cannot compare the dying of many in the horrendous genocides that have occurred with the Cross of Jesus Christ.  Jesus was but one person; genocides involve the deaths of myriads and the resulting loss to the survivors of genocide is untold.  Further, we cannot compare the death of Jesus to the death of anyone, because the death of each person is unique, and is uniquely mourned.

Good Friday is the Christian apologetics to add God to the equation of death.  If God is ALL, and the ALL is manifest in the one Jesus Christ in a uniquely symbolic representing way, then ALL die in the death of Jesus on the Cross.  It is a confession of God's omnipresence as having particular identity with every human being and every human situation including the sure and certain death which comes to everyone, even if it comes in unequal ways, even unjust ways, and oft seeming untimely ways.

Good Friday is the portrayal of God dancing with death and proclaiming that death is but one event in the continuous cycle of life always already becoming.

You and I are not "dead" clocks just chronologically imposing various forms of measurement on time.  We are living people with language who experience meaning in time and this is much more than a mere robotic measuring of quantified time or cycles of time.

Successive time, of before and after events, means that we are continuously losing even while we are gaining.  And in the human experience of time, what we experience as the death of a person is an event of most poignant meaning, but even death experiences are many and varied in how they are meaningfully processed.  We are saddened by the loss of a life of someone in their 90's but our logical minds of human life spans tells us that this is not as severe as the loss of someone who dies untimely.

So on Good Friday, we proclaim that God dies in Jesus, and if God who is ALL, and this ALL is in Jesus when he dies, then God takes complete identity with death which in human experience is the terminus point of what we regard to be conscious living human experience.

On Good Friday, we proclaim that even though death can be untimely and it can be extremely cruel, it is still natural, and when it is embraced by God's most intimate human representative, it becomes Super-Natural, even but a Threshold to what is after death.  The life of after death pertains mainly to those who continue to live who ponder their past lives with their loved ones and who dream about them and have many kinds of seeming serendipitous apparational phenomena of their continued perceived residue presence.

Good Friday is a day that we observe because we believe that God took the worst and blessed it and said not only is it natural, it is supernatural because the Divine Son represented God entering a most profound identity with human experience.

Today we do not come to say that human grief about death is over and done.  In fact we come to affirm grief as fitting because every living person is made with hope to finish the potential of hope that is buried within us as the seed of the divine life.

Today we come to Good Friday with our faith which seems to be a post-traumatic cognitive dissonance?  How can we ever call what is so painfully horrifying, good?

Such cognitive dissonance might be unhealthy, unless it is the faith which has the wings of hope to understand ourselves as intricately connected with everything that has been, is, and what shall be, in the ALL and in ALL.  

On Good Friday, in the Super-natural death of Jesus, we accept the humiliation of death, even as we let death reside within the fullness of the ALL.  And in so doing, we can never say the specific is good except as it is related to the hope of the ALL.  And with Julian of Norwich, on Good Friday, we tearfully confess that All manner of things will be well, indeed. Amen.

Artificial Intelligence Thread, Q. 1, 2026

Aphorism of the Day, March 31, 2026

AI relies upon default reasoning, which in scientific parlance would mean something which has not yet been falsified by empirical finding.  But there are many social and cultural default reasons which are not open to falsification, like God, gods, and myriads of personal affinities of people liking things and not knowing why they like them.  For AI to be available to people and markets it has to make things which are not falsifiable into data that can be represented to cater to human affinities needed to sell products, entertain, and appeal to the artistic aspect of human experience.

Aphorism of the Day, March 30, 2026

What does AI do in probability theory with the butterfly wing effect, i.e., the seemingly negligible but actual effect of flapping butterfly wings on the greater weather patterns everywhere?  This the reality of the connectedness of the micro-event with every other event.  AI like the science method has to define a "limited observable epoch" of causality by admitting that we have a limited but significant adequacy in explaining direct causation.  The retrieval algorithms of AI have to eliminate the data which is regarded to be the equivalent of the flapping butterfly wing negligible.

Aphorism of the Day, March 29, 2026

A chief governmental task will be to democratize the use of AI even giving democratically elected governments equal resources to "private" corporations for the distributions of the benefits of the AI to the general populace.  With more of the populace able to use AI the statistically possibility of distributive justice is greater.

Aphorism of the Day, March 28, 2026

Can the world come to an AI state of deterrence?  Like the current nuclear stand off? Of devastation being so total and final that one one dare use it?

Aphorism of the Day, March 27, 2027

Does the future of AI involve nano-drones which can "eat" humans and their weapon products?

Aphorism of the Day, March 26, 2026

One wonders why AI cannot devise ways to neutralize any nuclear threat through sub-atomic atmospheric fogs of micro-engines?

Aphorism of the Day, March 25, 2026

Not until the affordable energy supply requirement for AI storage is solved will AI be able to be applied to the many areas of academic research which could benefit from this advanced search and solution generator engine.  Until then only the most for profit areas will benefit.

Aphorism of the Day, March 24, 2026

The AI dilemma is that as the outcome of advanced reason, it will be be largely used to trick the ignorant rather than teach them critical thinking.

Aphorism of the Day, March 23, 2026

AI and the permissiveness of "free speech" is perhaps the greatest challenge when coupled with general ignorance and non-critical thinking.  There is so much misinformation promulgated on the internet now, much of which is generated by AI with deep fake capacity.  Free speech allows people to misinform and AI will be used to misinformed by deceitful users.

Aphorism of the Day, March 22, 2026

The lack of technologies of memory of ancient cultures and the relative paucity of surviving written documents has meant much guessing about ancient contexts has to occur in trying to interpret the past.  AI is the ultimate memory technology because it collects all language products which have been recorded so that today we are buried in information.  Ancient archeological sites are buried in coverings and archeologists have to guess/choose where to excavate to find the best evidence.  AI will continuously need to have "guessing" algorithms to select from the deluge of data of our memory technologies.  As good as AI is, current life has to have it own immediacy without us trying to make the traces of previous eras a disruption for to live now.  Even though AI gives the illusion of being able to have past lives parallel with our lives now, we can only be in the now.

Aphorism of the Day, March 21, 2026

AI output can overwhelm by generating too many responses to a problem or an issue even if they come with probability priority.  This means that the living human users cannot over rely on AI in situ because living insights for the final decisions are still crucial, especially in something as "fluid" as a doctor patient circumstance.

Aphorism of the Day, March 20, 2026

AI is the ultimate technology of memory for "outwardness" of language products which derive from people having the inward phenomenon of language, even while AI cannot manifest inwardness, but it becomes inwardly processed when it is used by people.


Aphorism of the Day, March 19, 2026


What does AI do with the mode of time that might be called simply the "togetherness" of everything all at once? It has collected human language products which have happened in time and stored them into an actual now of quantifiable shards of data as former time pieces, time materialized.


Aphorism of the Day, March 18, 2026


The greatest challenge for justice in the future will be the democratization of AI. Equal use for the most number of people is crucial.


Aphorism of the Day, March 17, 2026


In having and being "had" by language we name the perpetual human inwardness from where language derives as we are forced to interact with our outwardness whereby language becomes a conveyance between our inward and our outward. AI has become the most comprehensive collector of language in its outwardness.


Aphorism of the Day, March 16, 2026


The modern myth of progress does not involve the progress of people caring for more people better for the quality of life for the most. Progress is now the myth of AI being able to progressively solve the destructive tendencies of technological progress. The problem with AI being the solution to the dangers of technology is that the main drivers of AI are drunk with the motives of short term profits for the very few.


Aphorism of the Day, March 15, 2025


AI can use "random" mode for retrieval to simulate the human intermittent and serendipitous, AI cannot mimic the weakness of mental capacity and memory to create the kind of arising serendipitous which happens in actual human experience. AI can be the occasion for the human serendipitous without intending it.


Aphorism of the Day, March 14, 2026


In comparing AI retrieval function for reconstituting store language products to be reconstituted into a response to a user's request, to human memory retrieval function one can note that human memory does not have access to the same data base as AI. Also human memory can be intermittent and even random in what it selects for retrieval based upon contextual events as diverse as to outer and inner events in the life of a person. AI is not burdened with fickle subjective in its retrieval even if it might be formalaically boring. Human memory experiences serendipity; AI does not. AI needs human subjective serendipity creating public language events to be collected to further expand AI ability for future diversity in its vocabulary of responses.


Aphorism of the Day, March 13, 2026


Will AI ever collect enough language product data and generate enough algorithmic retrieval formula to create soulful fiction or adequate to the market products and replace the formulaic writing which is found in so many of the television and cinematic story lines?


Aphorism of the Day, March 12, 2026


AI is like most tools in life, it is not primarily for making life better for the most people possible; it is first for the profit of the investors. Any good or altruism results are but some intended and some unintended collateral effects.


Aphorism of the Day, March 11, 2026


One of the ironies of the development of AI is that AI developers and users will not take the advice that is recommended by the high probability answers given by AI programs, especially on matters that concern a better life for more people longer on this planet.


Aphorism of the Day, March 10, 2026


What is unfalsifiable is the human subjective experience. People experience inwards events which cannot be translated into language products except with the most general description, "it happened." AI can only deal with the aftermath of the inwardness of language becoming in some way public performance. This means that the infallibility of continuous inwardness of every human subject remains untouched by publicity except the paling description that consciousness is continually occurring in every person always everywhere. AI like a fisherman awaits for language products to caught rising from the ocean of inward language becoming outward language events to be caught.


Aphorism of the Day, March 9, 2026


AI is the ultimate collection of language product traces translated to computerese before they are retranslated into usable language products. But language itself is the definitive mystery of what happens within human language users. It does matter whether we use the language of science to physiologically describe why it happens, the mystery of language happening is still sub-atomic and invisible.


Aphorism of the Day, March 8, 2026


We have and will enter the era of the war of AI's. AI will be fighting AI as surrogates for users with competing interests and goals, just like the old Mad Magazine Spy vs. Spy.


Aphorism of the Day, March 7, 2026


Users have to ask for "truth" clarification in AI product, like the truth of correspondence of whether an AI product could be empirically verified compared with whether it is merely a linguistic product. Unicorns exists as AI linguistic products even though in human experience one cannot ever locate such an animal. Deep fakes do make the line of correspondence and possibility seem to merge.


Aphorism of the Day, March 6, 2026


AI is developed because of science and probability theory of statistical approximation, and yet it does not involve a theory of statements being meaningfully truth if and only if they can be empirically verified. The truth of AI is the entire field of collected language products from which all manner of product is generated. The total field is the higher "truth" of AI since the elements which populate this field and be linguistically presented in an infinite number of ways.


Aphorism of the Day, March 5, 2026


AI is a rhetorical persuasion machine because its users asks to supporting rhetoric for their projects. As such it will represent the diversity of the human rhetorical practice for all causes meaning that language and language products encompass conflicts, contradiction and everything on the continuum between rhetorical agreement and disagreement.


Aphorism of the Day, March 4, 2026


One could make the argument that everyone in living has faith, not necessarily of a religious nature, but in the sense of faith meaning being persuaded about life practices such that one manifest commitment acts consistent with what one is persuaded about. AI is a language product; it is rhetoricity on steroids and so at the heart of AI is "faith dynamic" or the nature of being persuaded in various ways as human language users. One can note that the New Testament Greek word for faith, pistis meant "persuasion" in Aristotle's rhetoric. The issue isn't about whether language users have faith, it has to do with the "objects" of faith or what one is persuaded about. AI as user based is a persuading language product.


Aphorism of the Day, March 3, 2026


Language products of writing, speech, body language deeds, and images can be seen in Marxist analysis as all products which embody ideology or a value preference for an actual physical condition or as representing the preferred state of the user. AI constructs ideology for users to represent their preferred state. While ideology is a pejorative in Marx when it is used as "propaganda" for the rich and powerful to justify their status, ideology is also a more general notion as well in that it can be an advocacy discourse for the disenfranchised. AI language products can be an instantiation of capitalistic goals and Marxist theory at the same time.


Aphorism of the Day, March 2, 2026


For AI to be used for sales, propaganda, religious evangelism, there has to be highly developed sociological profiles coded in the retrieval algorithms based upon the likelihood for certain language to persuade certain sectors or target audiences.


Aphorism of the Day, March 1, 2026


When an AI supplier negotiates a deal with the military about using AI only for lawful purposes, one wonders in our clandestine world how AI defines or guarantees what would be lawful?


Aphorism of the Day, February 28, 2026


AI is and will simply mirror the habits, values, and practices of their developers and users. It is a human product and as Nietzsche said, "it is and will be all too human." And in Nietzschean fashion it will be the expression of "will to power."


Aphorism of the Day, February 27, 2026


The truth of AI development and its use is that it is not primarily for altruistic purposes, it is for profit for the developers and for the benefit of those who use it for other than altruistic causes. Sadly, altruism will be only a minimal collateral effect of the development of AI. I wish I could be more optimistic.


Aphorism of the Day, February 26, 2026


It could be that the financial interest which dominate AI will be dishonest about where its use might harm others. On one hand, they might be gung ho for its military use and its use in deep fake propaganda but at the same time sell out the concerns for protection of the environment. What if the solution for needing large amount of electricity for AI storage units by AI's own recommendation could be solved with "green energy" but the commitment to fossil fuels keep them from seeking "green energy" alternatives. The people who control AI may not be honest in asking AI for solutions for the common good and best survival opportunities for all humans on the planet. I suspect that AI users will only want solutions for their own financial interests and not for the genuine good answers that AI could give them for long term survival of inhabitants of the planet.


Aphorism of the Day, February 25, 2026


AI is a probability "machine" of data and science is a probability method of arriving at statistic approximation, merely approximate because time makes everything tentative except time itself. AI must deal with more than statistic approximation since it deals with everything which can come to language products. This means that it accepts "language and language users" as the a priori condition of everything which means that everything which comes to language products has equality in being a language product. Qualifications such as meaningfulness, truth, and falsehood are further qualifications of language products which belong to science, morality, ethics, and aesthetic taste, which for AI are just further language product data which have been reduced to computer numerical shards.


Aphorism of the Day, February 24, 2026


If whatever can come to some language product is in someway meaningfully true as to having unfalsifiable linguistic existence, AI is the reservoir for things which have come to language products and therefore linguistically unfalsifiable.


Aphorism of the Day, February 23, 2026


AI can be the occasion for the reverse sublime effect. From a sublime inward experience a language product can arise and be vacuumed into the AI data base. A retrieval algorithm drawing from the AI data base can then generate a language product which can evoke the sublime experience even thought the AI is but a collection of shards of language stored from some products of sublime inward experience. Accidentally, and not predictably that AI can produce a language product which in a derivative way evokes the sublime for a user in their inward life. Thus the irony of "a robot moved me to tears."


Aphorism of the Day, February 22, 2026


If the life of probability is the challenge of all things being together in the kind of timing that might be called harmony when the over all effect of differences produce beautiful outcomes, the role of AI in inspire those who are looking for such cultural and social harmonies is important since AI offers us the best way to deal with the incredible number of differences which face us in a world of expanding differences confronting differences.


Aphorism of the Day, February 21, 2026


Language which is an invisible inward phenomenon easily becomes identified as the substance or essence of what language signifies as if giving a named surface or topos to everything. The insides is a play between worded topoi and such may be preparation for eventual publication. AI does not access to the inward preparation of eventual published language products.


Aphorism of the Day, February 20, 2026


Language is essentially an inward phenomenon where it happens. But it has external consequences in the language products of speech, body language deeds, writing, and the named surfaces in the eternal world. Language must be externally conducted between individuals who possess language internally and that internal language ability is activated with external stimuli. AI is now the superior reservoir of the external state of language products which occurs between the interior language conditions of each person.


Aphorism of the Day, February 19, 2026


It could be that AI further expansion into deep fake mirror accuracy only provides users the ability to stoop to their worst instincts in producing products of scorn and hatred. It might require laws to label any CGI product as such in the users presentations.


Aphorism of the Day, February 18, 2026


To go public with collectable published language products is to immediate have one's "intellectual" product go from foreground to be buried in the field of data which is the reservoir of cannibalized "language parts" to be sewn together for new AI products which rise as a foreground out of the deluge of background data.


Aphorism of the Day, February 17, 2026


Ancient archaeological sites are buried with years of accumulated layers of dirt, sand, debris or what has been built on top. Imagine the future accumulation of so much data that AI will have to devise algorithmic excavational shafts to retrieve the pieces of information about the past. It could be that the informational deluge will make our current archaeology efforts seem easy.


Aphorism of the Day, February 16, 2026


AI is machine like in that when it is in automatic function, it still needs human intervention for the control of an off switch when harm is the result of continuous operation.


Aphorism of the Day, February 15, 2026


As advanced as AI becomes and as creative as it becomes with innumerable generated synthesized probability products, it really is still being "performed" for users with uncopied inner subjectivity which remains the beholder of any AI product and the user's tasks as a subject is to remain writerly reader of AI product by the filtering process of subjective interpretation.


Aphorism of the Day, February 14, 2026


The more one uses an AI conversational partner, the more one realizes that one has to be creatively active to force the AI partner to not lock one into one's own probability field of personal language use. If a user is to engage AI to learn then the user must press through the questioning process to make the AI perform/retrieve/construct diverse vocabulary and view points for the topics of interest.


Aphorism of the Day, February 13, 2026


AI is for visual linguistic represented surfaces and sounds converted to language and for language as text, it is not for anything within invisible interior human nature.


Aphorism of the Day, February 12, 2026


To use AI LLM is to discover that it still is an ugly Frankenstein of ill-fitting body parts in contrast with the seamless verbal cosmetics of human subjectivity.


Aphorism of the Day, February 11, 2026


The postmodern world consists of so many cultures with sub-cultures and sub-sub-cultures....and each have their own manifold language products. One might say that mosts of these "cultures" avoid the vacuum of the AI and so AI is limited in specificity for the many micro-cultures of humanity.


Aphorism of the Day, February 10, 2026


If AI is supposed to mirror human interaction with language product, one can assess how it does it differently, better in some regards, and worse in the regard of not being an organic subjective living contextual agent. AI is better in information capacity and can have more accessible retrieval algorithms but such can result in clunky style reproduction bereft of sensitivity and they have probability ruts which force them into interpretive bias in what they produce. The human subject with faulty and intermittent memory still has the advantage of truly being a live respondent with a spontaneity that can never be replicated by AI.


Aphorism of the Day, February 9, 2026


Eventually the super rich will dwell in a world of AI robots which they can train to say to them, "my master treats me very well." The super rich want the independence of not needing the masses for anything, and they certainly don't want them to compete for the resources necessary for life. Gone is the notion of to whom much has been given, much will be required. How many wealthy person sees the requirement of their wealth as a responsibility to the poorest people in the world? How many of them would use the power of AI for a true distributive justice in our world? Indeed the utopian impulse requires the equal unreal request that humans be angelic.


Aphorism of the Day, February 8, 2026


What will be the value of AI in the world of the super rich who have eliminated all who are not super rich? Do they want to live in an unpopulated world with robots as their slaves and servants?


Aphorism of the Day, February 7, 2026


AI is only as good or bad as human beings are. We have been really good and really bad and lots of passé. AI is on a tool which mirrors human moral natures. The main question will be how exponentially bad or good AI will be in the survival or destruction of humanity.


Aphorism of the Day, February 6, 2026


AI has no self-censoring ability except the humans who create the algorithms to monitor what is selected and how it is presented.


Aphorism of the Day, February 5, 2026


How to avoid AI? Keep all your thoughts unpublished. But also deal with the fact that your "intellectual property" will have no public value.


Aphorism of the Day, February 4, 2026


AI can help a user find one's voice with frequent interaction because AI will consistently categorize the user into the probability habits that a user may not be conscious of. If one wants to expand and develop one's voice one can take note of how AI makes one a probability cliche and then one can consciously work to expand beyond the cliche that one has had revealed to oneself.


Aphorism of the Day, February 3, 2026


AI and plagiarism. Was the dictionary and the thesaurus earlier means of low-tech plagiarism. Looking for a alternate word or words which are not one's own to use and present as one's own? AI is indeed a very high-tech thesaurus and a good "plagiarist" using AI can hide the contribution of AI in a product if the plagiarist is an "original" stylist. If one believes that imitation is the beginning of learning, and that one excels in learning through an alteration of what one imitates, how one adapts imitation through creative paraphrase is an important learning phase. It is important that a student learn to drive AI responses to express the "originality" of the user. For example a user can ask AI to respond to a question as if they were Nietzsche, Heidegger, Barthes, Derrida, et. al. and from the various response find insights to express one's own amalgam of all the responses one has asked for. Indeed AI is a high-tech thesaurus on steroids.


Aphorism of the Day, February 2, 2026


AI does not have consciousness. It can only enter the consciousness of people.


Aphorism of the Day, February 1, 2026


The way to resist AI is to keep one's thoughts unpublished.


Aphorism of the Day, January 31, 2026


The way to both baffle and expand AI is to invent something new from one's unique interior where the shards of kaleidoscopic language bits to be shone through to articulate new exterior language products. AI will vacuum an original with its novel context and save it for re-presentation after having its retrieval algorithms altered to deal with the novelty on its way to becoming AI passe.


Aphorism of the Day, January 30, 2026


There needs to be different formats for AI, with one being the "facts" only format, and not just a registry of collective opinions about things. There needs to be an algorithm which only retrieves things which can be empirically verified with no allowance for "alternative" facts. It could be that most users prefer alternate facts and "infotainment" and conspiracy theories. There has to be a "facts" only AI. The "fact" that lots of people don't believe facts, cannot be the basis for user friendly AI.


Aphorism of the Day, January 29, 2026


If more people grow to believe in a flat earth, the AI data base can be skewed as to human opinions even while those who privilege science and empirical verification remain convinced about living on a globe. AI has to weigh the scientific law differently than the collective opinions of some people about reality.


Aphorism of the Day, January 28, 2026


Ask AI the same question and get slightly different answers because the shifting data base means that probability retrieval algorithms will have to adjust to a continuing changing ocean of data. It is unlikely that one will ever get verbatim replication.


Aphorism of the Day, January 27, 2026


Truth is an obsolete notion for AI since whatever is said to be true by someone is but a statistical approximation in the explanation of some happening or behavior of people or events in nature. AI follows the notion of falsification meaning that any statement is only tentative and is always open to be falsified by some future language product which could alter the "degree of truth" of anything prior.


Aphorism of the Day, January 26, 2026


To ponder the gap between Socrates abhorrence of writing and his preference for orality and what AI has become in terms of the technology of memory in stored LLM products is to note that phonocentric cultures might have a sentimental, childlike, romantic aura, but they could not participate in the creative advances which have occurred and led to the current use of LLM in AI. One might engage in regression of would it be nice to be a kid again and be in oral cultures, but such would only be a nostalgia, a regression to avoid a current pain in dealing with the deluge of information.


Aphorism of the Day, January 25, 2026


The potential for causing harm with the "automatic" functions of AI is greater than the mere requests for rhetorical assistance. "Automatic" functions limit or delays human intervention to stop a function of harm from happening. Certainly immediate abort switches need to be present for all automatic AI functioning devices.


Aphorism of the Day, January 24, 2026


AI's algorithmic goals might be the same as the rhetorical movement called belle lettres, which is the goal of propriety, i.e., presenting a rhetorical product which is appropriate/pleasing to the occasion. Appropriate would be certainly vague since it begs the question "appropriate to whom?" The obvious answer would be appropriate to the intended recipient/s of the rhetorical product. Such a rhetorical motive might bear the brunt of Plato's Socrates criticism who decries the rhetoricians as mere hired guns with no commitment to getting to the "truth" which Socrates gets to in his dialogical method of reasoning. AI is geared to aim to present a rhetorically appropriate product to please the "user/consumer" so it might be a straw man for Socrates' hired gun. AI cannot believe in any truth; its function hides the truth of the overall process of collecting data and translating into computerese and retranslating it into usable rhetorical product for the user/consumer. It represents in its products the collective hired guns of people who have and are involved in the entire AI process. It is a corporate rhetorical community whose end products absolves any one individual of responsibility for the resulting products of propriety for the user/consumer.


Aphorism of the Day, January 23, 2026


Like every tool, AI is only as moral and ethical as the user but when the possibility exists for greater danger with a tool the greater the need for safety measures be in place to prevent any kind of physical and psychological harm. The stewardship task for AI use will be great. Can we succeed?


Aphorism of the Day, January 22, 2026


When AI centralized technocracy is in place will it have such regional on-off switch control to turn off the possibility of war, control population growth, and monitor forces to respond to natural disasters, and epidemics? AI future capacity will be GPS-like atmospheric omnipresence to be functionally close to every place and everyone in a fully digitalized world. The rife interior of the human person will remain the wild untouched place of AI, even though they might be able to read a few brain waves. The interior will become the private almost masturbatory haven for the individual only disrupted when the individual decides to go public and create accessible data.


Aphorism of the Day, January 21, 2026


An AI technocracy with complete data control abrogates power to itself to say to the masses, "we are going to save you from yourself and your own lack of ability to act for the preservation of the world."


Aphorism of the Day, January 20, 2026


Can you imagine a sort of off shore "Cayman Islands" AI information super-data center, perhaps in an "independent" Greenland where tech companies can preside as the AI intelligentsia of the world on behalf the general low level intelligence of the people of the world caused in part by being infected by their wrong use of religion and general lack of critical thinking ability? This "independent" AI haven would be "free of morality" and taxes and it would have the goal of being the data control center of the world controlling the web of the world's functional information. It would justify itself by saying "we're the only ones who can really prolong the life of the world" given the general low level of critical thinking which dominates most of the world.


Aphorism of the Day, January 19, 2026


AI is going to have to deal with the reality of too much data becoming such a burden that their funneling algorithms to sift for the context specific relevant will statistically make the vast of amount of data negligibly irrelevant. This may happen because people will no longer ask for what is empirically true.


Aphorism of the Day, January 18, 2026


AI efforts at reading brain waves can seem to indicate that the interior space of a human person will so be able to be published but the vast rhizomic inner space can never be fully published. To read a few contextual brain waves is to assume the massive interweaving of the interior life could be published with singular and linear sequences.


Aphorism of the Day, January 17, 2026


In contrast to the linear and arborescent logic, the post-modern and the age of the internet might be called the rhizomic era because the logic of connection and causation are not so obviously visible but seemingly mysterious lost in curly cues and inter-weavings. The rhizome above the ground looks easier to follow but the underground is a tangled web. AI tries to deal with the rhizomic of what can come to computerese on the surface while being hopeless to the underground rhizomic complex of interior language function.


Aphorism of the Day, January 16, 2026


With AI, one can imagine language products as creating exterior surfaces which can be statistically quantified, stored, and repurposed. The surfaces notion is a throw back to the ancient notion of "topic," topos root of the word of surface topography. One could also metaphorically posit a "counter-topos" though (accompanying-topos might be more accurate) being the surface of language that is interior to a person, like the part of the iceberg under the water. The accompanying-topos within a person is the function and operation of language which is always already happening in various ways within a person but which never comes to a public showing. The interior topos of language is the greater since it includes the massive not-yet public of language.


Aphorism of the Day, January 15, 2026


Language is a interior mysterious attribute of humanity which creates language products of speech and text and mysteriously choreographs bodily actions and their represented pictures as well as identifies all the material "furniture" of the world we live in. AI seems to trap language products in a freeze frame state with the potential to be combined into seeming moving language products in motion to be brought to various forms of articulation. As to meanings of word products we know that words as mutual signifiers continuously qualify and re-qualify so as to deconstruct any stable meaning. Word products which purport to be a stable showing in fact can all die the death of a thousand qualifications. AI has a continual task of storing the endless number of open qualifications which can occur for any word product. Honest AI has to be proof of the instability of language products in their meanings and use.


Aphorism of the Day, January 14, 2026


Would it be possible to require AI to follow the Hippocratic oath of causing no harm? Or is harm such a vague condition that would die the death of a thousand qualifications if there was an attempt to make it a working principle of AI both for the AI companies and users. And rogue players could always work outside the system? Certainly AI has guideline already in place to guarantee a general standard of friendliness, but can AI enforce that such friendliness be embraced by the users resulting products?


Aphorism of the Day, January 13, 2026


When it comes to artistic "value," AI cannot distinguish between public or private value. AI statistically can compute public interest in what is designated as a "work" of art. What AI cannot judge is whether an individual experiences the sublime effect in the presence of anything, at least not until the individual goes public with a response.


Aphorism of the Day, January 12, 2026


What is the relationship between the being of language within overall being itself? It has to have privileged place since knowing being involves having language to know it even though we assume language impaired infants have consciousness. We know language by its products, speech, writing, and the way that it codes our environment and actions. Our human traditions within cultures are built upon countless number of language product events; too many to remember and too many that have eluded any technology of memory and most have become lost negligible causal precedents for things we think we know now. AI as the most significant advance in memory technology of word products means that going forward fewer causes of events will be in the category of the negligible lost.


Aphorism of the Day, January 11, 2026


AI needs intelligent users to push it beyond the "herd" response of its statistical tendency. Users must push it beyond the predictable and with continual follow ups require the algorithms to function outside of their algorithmic boxes.


Aphorism of the Day, January 10, 2026


AI as essentially a statistically machine cannot guarantee an "interesting" or even useful product for the user. To make AI useful, the user has to be a creative person leading the "dance" or AI will be a poor dancer or step on one's toe. Don't expect AI to be automatically useful to you and don't think that one can abdicate one's directive roles unless one is but an uninterested student trying to get an assignment in without getting involved in doing the "thinking" work.


Aphorism of the Day, January 9, 2026


AI cannibalizes (tokenizes) language products into smaller units and "translates" them into computer "code" so that the smaller units can be reconstituted and retranslated from "code" into presentable language product for the consumer.



Aphorism of the Day, January 8, 2026


If everything "outside of a person" is objective publishable, i.e., sensorial available data and everything "inside of a person" is private and unavailable then AI is the ultimate collector of what is available but the subjective interior of what is inside each person is still unavailable. AI the repository of the greatest amount of what comes to language products but it is a tip of the iceberg to what has been, what is, and what will remain interior to peoples of the world.


Aphorism of the Day, January 7, 2026


AI is the ultimate palette of word product colors for language users who seek assistance in making their interior subjective wild language collage into a public performance of their personhood, their personality seeking response and perhaps recognition for being, for existing.


Aphorism of the Day, January 6, 2026


How good is AI in integrating the new written dialect of English of "textese?" I asked Gemini to give a report of the January 6, 2021 attack on Congress in textese.


On 1/6/21, a huge crowd of ppl marched on the Capitol b/c they were rly upset bout the election results. Things escalated fast & ppl actually broke into Congress, smashing windows & causin major chaos. Govt leaders had 2 hide or evacuate while police tried 2 get control. It was a huge, rly intense moment for the US that ppl r still processing today in 2026.


Aphorism of the Day, January 5, 2026


In contrast with antiquity or most of human history, modern people have been born into access to many different language traditions, even if one seems to dominate in having persuasive effect in one's life due to location and other social factors. With the internet the plethora of different and even rival rhetorical traditions from one's own means that the dissolving effect of that plethora can erode the intensity of one's settled persuasions. In short, it might be called "education," or learning by the dialogical situations which one encounters. Challenging the stance of "I know what I like and I like what I know," is the educational process. AI is a potential archive of every recorded persuasive position which has come to language products and one enlists the services of AI to help one to navigate in the stored universe of discourse, one which cannot be exhausted by any individual but surely AI is the continual invitation for one to surpass oneself in being exposed to new perspectives.


Aphorism of the Day, January 4, 2026


AI cannot experience or be sublime; it can potentially generate an experience of the sublime for the user but the sublime is in the "eye" of the user, even if the lonely user begins to project actually personality upon an AI conversational partner.


Aphorism of the Day, January 3, 2026


Will it be too expensive to democratize AI, that is, make it widely available worldwide to be a an assisting tutor to raise the informational level of everyone in the world toward better care for everyone?


Aphorism of the Day, January 2, 2026


With investment in AI becoming more than AI profits, AI companies will face a major moral decision regarding the areas where it can be most profitable to recover investments plus satisfy stockholders. War and propaganda may be the decision they make to maximize profits.


Aphorism of the Day, January 1, 2026



Calendars are the way that humans have watched the motion of objects in time in a before and after sequence and given these sequences social and personal identity significance by attaching memorial annual repetitive events. (In fact, there are no repetitive actual events, only repeated designated "themed" events). Time and its human social significance figures in probability theory and the LLM of AI is like the ultimate calendar of time since it re-produces in the great language loop the performance of language events bound by the unavoidable before and after reality of language performance sequence. AI is like the great calendar of language but without any predetermined length of time sequence being significant. It is a time "neutral" phenomenon. AI is ready for the user to ask it to continually give new themes to time in language.

Aphorism of the Day, March 2026

Aphorism of the Day, March 31, 2026

Holy Week to Easter is the church's ceremonial liturgical body language, with speech texts, and songs of learning how to live with what may come to us in life especially living with the afterlives of those we wish were still with us.

Aphorism of the Day, March 30, 2026

Holy Week is about the confession of what could be call post-traumatic cognitive dissonance as "providential."  As in the seeming oxymoronic "Good Friday."  How is it that what is terrifying and terrible becomes called good, redemptive, and valorized as a mode of living, as in "taking up one's cross?"

Aphorism of the Day, March 29, 2026

The development of the Jesus Movement involved moving away from the apocalypticism of the Zealots opposing the Empire and finding ways of co-existing within the realities of the Empire, moving from the goal of overcoming the Caesar to converting the populace with "eucharistic guilds espousing the mysterion/sacramentum of what Paul call the hope of glory, "Christ in you."  The New Testament bears the honest ambiguities of the origin of the Movement being zealotry final apocalypticism to the realized eschatology of the always already Spirit of God interior kingdom reigned by the Risen Christ.

Aphorism of the Day, March 28, 2026

All discourse and words have a shelf life in terms of what was meant in the original context of their generation.   Written text preserved gives the false impression that original contextual meanings can be maintained precisely as they were originally were understood.  In fact, written texts read in future situations become meaningful in different ways than their original contexts.  When we read the Bible we are trying to first understand the layered contexts which elucidate their "first" context meanings as well as the many editings and redactions which are surely present in the writings before attaining various communal votes on some "final" canon.

Aphorism of the Day, March 27, 2026

One should be charitable about prophesy and prediction "fails."  Why?   They merely instantiate an insight about human hope and perpetual belief in "having a future."  All predictions about dystopic outcomes have not happened nor have the ones which visualize good outcomes for the "good guys," (wink, wink) we're the good guys, the ones making the prediction.  All sorts of futurism occur in our daily life and various motivational devices are associated with them to influence current perceived ethical or "right" actions.  Yes, the more totalizing that one goes to associate the divine with such a prediction would mean that one might have to be a little more "red faced" when things don't go exactly as one predicted.  But remember the ALL is never wrong because the ALL just continuously surpasses the previous ALL in occasions of what was predicted or what was not.  The humility of the scientific method is to rely on probability and be humbly open about how things could be perceptually and otherwise falsified, but only falsified to find something more temporally adequate in our understanding.   Let us be tolerant of the prediction crowd especially if it is analgesic discourse for their current personal or group pain.  We should be wary though of those who valorize a future of no earthly life because of a fervent hope which results in actively pursuing a world ending "Armageddon" so that all people will go to the non-bodily lives of perpetual inwardness of pre-end of time visualizations of heaven and hell.  Apocalyptic fatalism is when hope has been overcome by the sickness of despair.

Aphorism of the Day, March 26, 2026

Actual language use is what eventually challenges and changes standard and prescribed usage as unconscious and unplanned deconstruction happens when certain different usage gain currency to challenge the former "correct" use.

Aphorism of the Day, March 25, 2026

The ambiguity of language is that it seems to promote essential stability in time through the presentation of outer symbols of words which seem to remain the same over time even while itself is being altered by time in the continual usage of it.  The mysterious continuous inwardness of language alters the outward meanings.

Aphorism of the Day, March 24, 2026

Time means that there is no true "conservative," there are only people with the illusion that the meanings of language remain stable over time and in asserting the stability of their own self-meanings they become deluded.  At least the Amish know they are using old technology which ceased being standard.

Aphorism of the Day, March 23, 2026

A most basic notion of meaningful truth is the longevity of actual use of ideas in forming and promulgating community identity.  Whether we admit it or not because meaningful truths exist in language, all truths have a shelf life even if we naively assume they are the same over time.

Aphorism of the Day, March 22, 2026

The past is only memorial traces in our present.  We can't relive the past and we should assess the traces as what we call experience to live better now.

Aphorism of the Day, March 21, 2026

Adequate, fitting, appropriate to the situation is the goal for human action; perfect is but the hyperbole of one's own appreciation affinities.

Aphorism of the Day, March 20, 2026

An aphorist is one who cannot write a book because he or she only believes in finite and flashing insights, and is one who has gotten perpetually deconstructed realizing the language is the quicksand we walk in with only the mirage of solid ground to walk on.

Aphorism of the Day, March 19, 2026

Christians should beware of pridefully making "resurrection" as a superior way of speaking about the afterlife and immortality.  It can be used to "make" eternal the individual "ego" as being more suited to have post-life than other inferior "egos."

Aphorism of the Day, March 18, 2026

We should not divorce Eucharist from the feeding of people in this world.  One might say that the feeding of the multitude is the primary example of Eucharist in the Gospels; it is the gradual administration of placing restrictions of potential participants which made the Eucharist into a mere symbol of religious eating divorced from the great hunger need in our world.  Eucharist as dynamic symbol should be that activation toward feeding all hungry people in the world.

Aphorism of the Day, March 17, 2026

Is resurrection the narrative event of trying to give a human anecdote to the always already notion of immortality which people assume from their own experience of an inwardness which they think has been given a bodily existence for the duration of what we call a life?  Invisible Inwardness is always already?

Aphorism of the Day, March 16, 2026

Should we not ponder that the Lazarus story in John's Gospel is a teaching narrative parable in the life of Jesus illustrating to the readers of John's Gospel many years after Jesus, that resurrection life is a quality of life that we participate in spiritually qua Paul's mystagogy before we die to the everlasting afterlife?

Aphorism of the Day,  March 15, 2026

The old adage that necessity is the mother of invention today should be qualified with a cynical "profit necessity" is the mother of invention.  To be invented something has to be able to make some money.

Aphorism of the Day, March 14, 2026

The saddest thing about the development of AI is that we will not take the advice that AI gives us on quality of life for the most people on this planet because of short term profit interest and political tribalism.  We develop a tool with the greatest probability wisdom on survival and we do not implement what wise probability recommends because of short-sighted selfishness.  The greatest sin of AI is not taking its generated advice on how to live longer best.

 Aphorism of the Day, March 13, 2026

The Bible is largely a book of writing what is perceived as "providential" for one's community of faith, given everything good and bad that has happened.  It is not writing about how everything has been hunky dory for one's community or even one's view of God and life; it is based upon the hope of continuous eschatological verification of one's view about the goodness, love, and justice as eventual prevailing values.

Aphorism of the Day, March 12, 2026

The pride of religion, philosophy, or any human endeavor is to "freeze frame" some insight as the the final and best insight that needs to be canonized and made into an idol as the last word.  Humility is knowing that the words of todays insights can and will be deconstructed with the potential of receiving new re-constitution in future worded events of new insights.

Aphorism of the Day, March 11, 2026

Even though language designates thing exterior to one's body, language itself is an inside the person phenomenon which is surely activated by outward social coding something like a language parasitical products interacting with host subjects to keep it alive and producing.  In language use, it's products can be analyze on a continuum of with one side being a seeming equivalence with an actual material reality, which of course is not true, because the word tree whether in speech, text, or picture is not actually that external object.  Science is the attempt to keep language as close to the external object as possible to legislate consistency for communal objectivity, and even to the point of limiting meaningful truth, e.g., a statement is meaningfully true if and only if it can be empirically verified.  But the many other forms of meaningfulness in language challenges the right of scientific discourse of being the sole definition of a singular meaningful truth in propositional statements.

Aphorism of the Day, March 10, 2026

One observation about the writer of John's Gospel is that the physical world is the occasion for a metaphor which is not equivalent to the physical world but to illustrate an recommended state of enlightened faith regarding Christ.

Aphorism of the Day, March 9, 2026

In religious rhetoric, there is often the hint of the exaggeration of confessing that one's own understanding as being "omni-adequate" to human life itself, rather than being relatively adequate to the faith contexts of living in the moment.  There is no need to make claims of omni-adequacy since we cannot have the capacity or access to the capacity to make such claims.

Aphorism of the Day, March 8, 2026

Creation?  Always the now becoming out of previous states of having become.

Aphorism of the Day, March 7, 2026

We name in language the experience of being "here" in an environment where what confronts from without and from within does have names, actions, and conditions which have come to language, but in being here the human mind can but interact linguistically with but a very few phenomena.  The few phenomena that we have linguistic focus upon does not negate the passive presence of everything else which has come to language.  As infants our experience of language is completely passive and as we learn language we learn to apply language in a moving "now of time" and in so doing we employ in the "now" but a tiny portion of the entire linguistic universe which is always already differentiating the things which have come to have a name.

Aphorism of the Day, March 6, 2026

Hegel wrote that what we learn from the writing of history is that people don't learn from reading history.  A person may want to have the wisdom of experience without the failures and mistakes which it took to attain the wisdom which could be expressed unrealistically as "I regret that I had to be so bad to become wise."  Such wish to have been born maturely perfect is unrealistic or to wish that one had life experience that could be characterized as always already lucky.  Hegel's statement on not learning from history is probably based upon observing the great repeated mistakes of peoples as groups or community practicing harmful behaviors with each other.  Within the failure of "groups" there still may reside individuals who "learned" from reading their own personal histories.

Aphorism of the Day, March 5, 2026

Liberation theology in short acknowledges that all theology is ideology, and if so, one determines the preferred ideology by the Christian standard of Christ-like values discerned from the words attributed to Jesus.  And the words of Jesus indicate a preponderance of an ideology on behalf of the poor.

Aphorism of the Day, March 4, 2026

Biblical interpretation is the art of taking "context specific writings" of contexts which are mostly unknown to people absent from the original contexts, and expanding the meanings to have general or even universally relevance even though such relevance is only determined by "church council" since no ancient text have self evidential meanings included in them having come to writing.

Aphorism of the Day, March 3, 2026

There are many words which are definitionally unfalsifiable like universe, all, God, et al.  They assume an Observer who is big enough to have the vantage point at the expanding outer rim of the great Container.

Aphorism of the Day, March 2, 2026 

In time of war, both sides pray to their divine for help, protection, and victory.  And does one define the outcome of war as the divine purpose as an interpretive adjustment of what happened as what was meant to be?  And would this be merely a baptism of a Darwinian survival of the fittest, of the natural processes being designated as also supernatural?

Aphorism of the Day, March 1, 2026

The experience of the sublime is intermittent and more serendipitous than predictable.  There might be the tendency to reduce the sublime to a consistent experience of affinity for the things which activate pleasure points within oneself.  Something might be a first time serendipitous sublime which creates the desire for replication, like the discovery of a piece of music to which one continually returns for the sublime effects.  However, such the banality of the experience can make the once sublime lose its former sublime power, or it might be that familiarity breeds a contempt which might be the Sublime Generator's message for persons to expand their search for further areas where the sublime might be known.
