[Krimel]
Ok but in fact possibility is entirely immaterial. It is 100 percent
conceptual. Probability is a function of approach to actuality. 12 billion
years ago horses and torses were equally improbable. Their respective
likelihoods diverged as events unfolded into actuality. I am saying that
the
amount of attention we should pay and significance we should attach to
possibility is a direct function of likelihood.
The less likely something is, the less necessity it has; right down to the
point that it is completely unnecessary to be concerned with it at all.
DM: Do you think that kind of attitude got us to the moon? There are
people soending a lot of time finding out what are the possibilities,
properties and qualities awaiting the chance to be actualised. Some
are artists, others are scientists, others are lovers. EG take those
scientists making new molecules to see what unrealised possibilties
they offer. There is a good book about genes and possibilties
inherent in them called: Not in our Genes.
