Krim: It allows an purely naturalistic universe in which things
evolve slowly from the bottom up.

DM: Does anyone here disagree?

[Krimel]
I suspect some do but do they? Anyone? Anyone?

[Marsha]
I do not like the top-down or bottom-up model.  I like the Net Of Jewels
Model: The universe is uncaused, like a net of jewels in which each is only

the reflection of all the others in a fantastic interrelated harmony without

end.

[Krimel]
Could just be me but this makes not a bit of sense. I can't for the life of
me see the middle way between top down and bottom up leading anywhere.

Greetings Krimel,

I haven't taken the net of jewels model to represent the middle way. It's how I see it, 'interconnected reflections', or interconnected, overlapping patterns. I have never been terribly comfortable with a hierarchical structure because it forbids the possibility of overlapping categories. Though, it is favored in the sciences, isn't it? And very patriarchal. Besides, where is it you want to be lead? Who's on top? How utterly boring?

Marsha
