Hi Hal,
I read and try to understand. I am not sure life is inherently self-
destructive. It is more inherently self-replacing.
Can you define the A of your assumption more specifically? Your notion
of divisors is quite vague for me.
Best,
Bruno

Hi everyone:
I am currently interested in two questions:
Does my model of why there are dynamic universes within the
Everything [latest version is below] include Bruno's Comp? Hi Bruno.
If life is inherently self destructive under any reasonable
definition of life [see some of my recent posts], then how does this
impact the Everything since I see it as a restriction [selection] on
the scope of possible universes?
Comments welcome.
Thanks

DEFINITIONS:
i) Distinction:
That which enables a separation such as a particular red from other
colors.
ii) Devisor:
That which encloses a quantity [zero to every] of distinctions.
[Some divisors are thus collections of divisors.]
iii): Define "N"s as those divisors that enclose zero distinction.
Call them Nothing(s).
iv): Define "S"s as divisors that enclose a non zero number of
distinctions but not all distinctions. Call them Something(s).
MODEL:
1) Assumption # A1: There exists a set consisting of all possible
divisors. Call this set "A".
"A" encompasses every distinction. "A" is thus itself a divisor by
definition (i) and therefore contains itself an unbounded number of
times ["A" contains "A" which contains "A" and so on.
2) An issue that arises is whether or not an individual specific
divisor is static or dynamic. That is: Is its quantity of
distinction subject to change? It cannot be both.
This requires that all divisors individually enclose the self
referential distinction of being static or dynamic.
3) At least one divisor type - the "N"s, by definition (iii),
enclose no such distinction but by (2) they must enclose this one.
This is a type of incompleteness. [A complete divisor can answer
any self meaningful question but not necessarily consistently i.e.
sometimes one way sometimes another] That is the "N"s cannot answer
this question which is nevertheless meaningful to them. [The
incompleteness is taken to be rather similar functionally to the
incompleteness of some mathematical Formal Axiomatic Systems - See
Godel.]
The "N" are thus unstable with respect to their initial condition.
They each must at some point spontaneously enclose this stability
distinction. They thereby transition into "S"s.
4) By (3) Transitions between divisors exist.
5) Some of the "S"s resulting from "N"s [see (3)] may themselves be
incomplete in a similar manner but perhaps in a different
distinction family. They must evolve - via similar incompleteness
driven transitions - until "complete" in the sense of (3).
6) Assumption # A2: Each element of "A" is a universe state.
7) The result is a "flow" of "S"s most of which are encompassing
more and more distinction with each transition.
8) This "flow" is a multiplicity of paths of successions of
transitions from element to element of the All. That is (by A2) a
transition from a universe state to a successor universe state.
9) Our Universe's evolution would be one such path on which the "S"
constantly gets larger.
10) Since incompleteness can have multiple resolutions the path of
an evolving "S" may split into multiple paths at any transition.
11) A path may also originate on an incomplete "S" not just the "N"s.
12) Observer constructs such as life entities and likely all other
constructs imbedded in a universe bear witness to the transitions.
13) Transition paths ["traces" may be a better term] can be of any
length.
14) A particular transition may not resolve any incompleteness of
the subject evolving "S".
15) White Rabbits: Since many elements of "A" are very large, large
transitions could become infrequent on a long path [trace] whereon
the particular "S" itself gets large. (Also few White Rabbits if
both sides of the divisors on either side of the transition are
sufficiently similar in size).
