Bliss Theory
Considering what bliss ignorance is supposed to be,
it is no surprise if conceptualizing Bliss
kicks up a hornet's nest of deep thoughts
on self, truth, beauty, meaningfulness, value, logic and evolution.
May you enjoy the reading as much as this one did the writing.

Emotional merger as a general process
The Crease of Logic
- Geniuses (Hume, Borges, Foucault) agree, language is
bullshit. But no, it builds on the evolved biological, the
organismal internal-process lexicon, which tightly fastens reality to
internality of thought, language, and logic.
Logic from Space
- A solution to the Crease of Logic: a minimal and useful spatial
cognition system already contains all the components of logic. Thus
certainty of thought may inherit its certainty from
the certainty of subjective spatial perception.
Darwinian Selection Logic
- Because Logic plays a key role in evolution.
Life, Child of Logic. Humanity, Child of Life.
- Tautology: how saying nothing says everything true. H!
- Logic, the Queen
- Functional Logic of Evolution
- Lazy Equals, or H notation
- Tautology
- Cognitive Biology: biology (and science generally) are cognitive science.
