Pedro -- Regarding: P: But a previous question may be in order: is "force" the most cogent term to rationalize the upheavals of human history? Is "force" an interesting element at all for advancing the informational worldview?
S: There is Being and there is Change. Material Being changes but not completely except when, or as, it disappears. Changes can be viewed as informational. Some change is forced, some is spontaneous, but all is mediated by the information that is embodying Being. Change is inherent in Being-in-this-world because of the Second Law of Thermodynamics. The cause of change can be viewed as added information. Change may be sought by, or forced upon, Being. So, force could be an interesting element regarding informational changes. STAN
