It has been observed that an inadequate understanding of the fundamental difference between aesthetics and ethics causes an inevitable collapse of cultures. This ignorance, in part, has been imposed on the general Western population through an illogical mix of politically and religiously organized core curriculum studies that dominate the philosophies of Western scientific culture. The manipulation to present illogical aesthetics as passionate ethical beliefs generates an untenable concept of the life process, leading to social disintegration.
Due to this problem, the fate of global civilization now hangs in the balance. Although the difference between aesthetics and ethics is now measurable, the present panic obsession with failed global economic rationalism precludes genuine research on this topic. However, the emerging chemistry of quantum biology as a medical science is revealing the nature of the technologies needed for the healthy or ethical improvement of the global human condition.
Quantum mechanics includes the property called ‘Observer Participation’. It is necessary for someone looking through a powerful microscope at a very small part of the fabric of the material universe to use light in order to see it. Because light can alter the structure of the tiny tissue being observed, the observer is considered to participate in the structure of the universe. Quantum biology is about how the energies of the material universe intertwine with Plato’s optics of spiritual or holographic reality for creative consciousness to evolve.
It is quite acceptable to associate ethics with this process of evolution of consciousness. That idea was basic to the ancient Greek life science called ‘Science for Ethical Purposes’, which was also associated with the 3rd century BC Greek ‘Science of Universal Love’. Recently, a new chemistry of life was discovered, which is referred to by its three Nobel Prize winners in Chemistry as Fullerene Chemistry. Platonic pagan science ethics is now central to the discovery of his new medical science, because Buckminster Fuller derived his life science engineering principles from it.
Harvard University Novatis Professor Amy Edmonson, in her online book titled ‘A Fuller Explanation-The Synergetic Geometry of R. Buckminster Fuller’, published in 1987, explains that fullerene chemistry is directly associated with Platonic ethics . On page 36 of her book, Professor Edmonson writes that Fuller derived his mathematics of human survival from ancient Greece. On the next page is a subheading, “Plato’s Discovery,” in which the ancient mathematics used by Fuller is presented in detail.
The foundation of the ethical disposition of Western culture was built on the aesthetics postulated by Immanuel Kant. This can no longer be considered as a logical concept. Several independent corrections have been made to Kant’s logic, in which the improvement of his ‘Aesthetics’ resulted in quantum mechanics moving towards quantum biology. One of the pioneering scientists in this process was the 19th century mathematician Bernard Bolzano, considered one of the world’s greatest logicians.
Edmund Husserl, in his ‘Prolegomena to a Pure Logic’ of 1900, was aware of Bolzano’s ‘Theory of Science’, which was a correction of Kant’s ‘Aesthetics’. Bolzano’s logic led to the discovery of the ethics of fractal logic. People who helped frame 20th-century science, such as Benoit Mandelbrot, Bertrand Russell, and Albert Einstein, failed to grasp Bolzano’s brilliant understanding of fractal ethics. Now that Bolzano logic is an integral part of the now accepted universal Platonic-Fulerene holographic reality, the nature of the incredible new technologies of human survival has become obvious.
In 1972, Dr. Candace Pert discovered the Molecule of Emotion, from which the nature of the intertwining of the material universe with spiritual holographic reality can be easily deduced. The original Western life science was correct, ethics pertains as a force to generate healthy biological growth and development across space-time. Proof of this fact was discovered during the 1980s by the Science-Art Center in Australia. Her discovery of a vital force that governs optimal biological growth and development throughout space-time was reprinted in 1990 from the world literature of the 20th century by the world’s largest technological research institute, the IEEE Milestone Series in Washington. Immanuel Kant’s ‘Aesthetics’ can only generate ethical insights that provide inspiration to make practical use of ethical information, generated through the evolution of space-time, for the betterment of the human condition.
Now it is possible to realize how aesthetics can be used to create cultural chaos. For example, the aesthetic of Thanksgiving, when families come together to celebrate family life, is an accepted inspiring concept. However, thanking God for food, when millions of disjointed children around the world are starving, implies a rather unethical understanding of the classical Greek science of universal love.
Religious politicians use the aesthetic turn to claim that their aesthetic reasoning is the basis of fundamental ethical knowledge. An example of this is Cambridge University’s continuous reprint since 1932 of philosopher FM Cornford’s essay, ‘Before and After Socrates’, in which Plato is considered one of the greatest church fathers. That concept remained in use as student studies of the prescribed core curriculum throughout the world to the present time. It is unethical nonsense, because Platonic mathematics was outlawed by the Church, as the work of the Devil, under Pope Cyril of Alexandria in 415, and that has never been repealed.
