Opis

In the end, the individual acting within God, is simple to understand. This volume will begin where we, humankind, have led ourselves as we attempted to slash our way through the jungle of life's seemingly endless paradoxes. These paradoxes, which life has persistently thrown across our path, are signposts for us. Paradoxes are indicators that we do not have all the answers. Paradoxes warn us to beware. They warn us there is something wrong with our perception of life; there is something wrong with our thinking. They have a function of their own, they direct us towards a state of understanding where we are, what we are, and why it is we exist. In this essay, we will be attempting to understand the likes of Russell, Wittgenstein, Frege, Plotinus, and back again to Russell as we attempt to move past parts of Heidegger. Our objective will be to step back in time in order to get back to today. What is the point of going to all this trouble just to get back to where we started? The point is to bring back with us a new perception regarding a simpler solution to Russell's paradox. Why is this important? Presently we have a solution to Russell's paradox, which involves a complex understanding of 'separation through exclusionism', which in turn represents what we do to people in society. We separate individuals and groups from our own groups and ourselves. Once having separated groups and others from ourselves we then exclude them from ourselves through a process of rejection, exclusionism, and separation. It is Russell's paradox, which provides the key to rectifying these constant actions of rejection. For this reason we will accompany Russell as he travels eighteen hundred years back in time. This trip will allow us to bring back with us a different solution to Russell's paradox. This trip will allow us to bring back a process known as 'separation through inclusion'. 'But what does this concept of 'separation through exclusion' as opposed to 'separation through inclusion' have to do with me?' you may ask. It is the simplistic resolution of complex paradoxes, which provides us with a simplistic understanding of life. This is an essay beginning in complexity and ending in simplicity. Presently we have solved Russell's paradox in a complex fashion. This has led us to understanding life in a complex manner. We cannot understand the simplicity of life as long as the basics of life remain complex. We are going to journey back in time and make a correctional adjustment to our journey as individuals and as species in order to resolve Russell's Paradox and simplify our understanding of life. The question becomes, 'How far back in time must we travel to do all this?' We must go back 1700 years. Who will lead us on this backtracking expedition? The honors will go to Bertrand Russell himself. Russell verbalized the paradox in 1901. It is, after all, Russell's paradox. Therefore, it will be Russell who will lead our backtracking expedition, which will lead us to an understanding of life. 'What will an understanding of life do for us?' An understanding of life will lead us to understanding our purpose for existing while at the same time confront us with an even greater question to which we will sorely want an answer.
