Proper Care and Feeding of your Propositional Assertions
Up to this point I've been teaching you how to predict the future by searching for the truth. As investigators we create. Right or wrong, we create. Ask a question and the truth is out there. It's often where you look last. The truth can even be hidden where we have already looked. But until we have made ourselves ready, the truth can persist to evade us. This is where we can have a consensus of mutual blind spots.
A propositional Assertion can be like a magical incantation, or even a poem. We all make plans and commitments, that doesn't mean that every thing turns out the way we want, but we still project ourselves into possible futures. Think of your Propositional Assertions like planned parent hood. Conceptually, there is nothing complicated about making propositions. Even if you're not very assertive you can actually make viable assertions. The truth almost seems to have a life of it's own. But it can't speak for itself. "In the beginning there was the word, and the word was made manifest." You yourself may not yet see the life of truth, but look to the works of poems. See how truth may speak to you. And you will ask, "How did they do that?" that is the right question and you may soon learn the answer. It starts with an assertion. A statement. A proposition that starts the dialog, the proposition is like your children. You love the truth even at great cost. For you, what you believe to be true will be sacred. Just go with it. I'm not advocating giving up control to your muse, I merely suggest that if you want to understand how we create, it is the same for how we approach truth. There is some unknown, some uncertainty, it moves into the center of our attention and it becomes of some value to us. Enough so as that we give ourselves to that pursuit of truth or understanding until it becomes real for us or we look somewhere else. For most of us this focus on the uncertain is undramatic. But we all can experience moments of meaning and closure.
As I've repeated "Truth is the only eventual inevitability." My 4 Propositional Assertions are;
1.) A persons guess is always better than odds would allow.
2.) Everyone has blind spots, and everyones blind spots are different.
3.) Some people are very different, very differently.
4.) Everybody needs love. (All things are drawn to love, {Power?} especially love.)
These are not weak truisms. These are my armor. This is my truth. It's not about me and I promised in the final analysis this would not be about me. I had to allow that many paths to the undertaking of Intuitive Diagnostics would become rational for popular culture as the result of the inevitable shifting of popular opinions. I merely predicted it in a way that ultimately makes sense, I hope. But that's the thing about building your own propositional assertions. They are born of love. It's the antithesis is censorship. Viral statements merely obscure. Your propositional assertions are statements of intent, without pretense of authority. This is what make the advances in science and medicine so powerful, truth ultimately asserts itself and becomes inevitable. Can you see your minds whirling in doubt, frustration and denial? You can help it, you are under the effect of rational doubt. Unlike viral statements, ("Branding?") thoughtful propositional assertions feed on Rational Denials. This is how you test your assertions to see if they are true. Start gently, Then improve your testing mediums ability to challenge your assertions confidently.
Look at the 4 primary propositions of the para psychological methods. They have Number (Enumerate Partition). And they reconstruct into a Unity (Coalescent Symmetry). These are all statistical models for analyzing information about people and our health. If you haven't worked with Intuitive Diagnostics up to this point, then this will seem to be so much gibberish. But if you have, you have seen this useful though seemingly artificial compartmentalization of data used predominantly throughout the world. Then Intuitive Diagnostics may not offend you.
As my Croatian Sociology professor would say, "Make predictions, and be prepared to be wrong."
