Apparently, some things are good, or not.

 Before we get into Dr. Z's understanding about democracy or Democracy, and he might have been able to distinguish those two, we have to have a little understanding about Dr. Z and Ralphy, because of course, a lot of Dr. Z's understanding was derived from conversations he had with Ralphy and therefore it is quite important to know that of all the people who did spend time with Ralphy , Dr. Z spent the most.  And Ralphy did like to talk and Dr. Z enjoyed those conversations and so it was good all around.

Anyway, before we can get into that, we have to get into Aristotle and Alexander.  We mostly know that Alexander was a student of Aristotle and Alexander did conquer the world, at least to the satisfaction of many people, and a city was built which ended up with possibly all or most of the knowledge of the Ancient world.  And I kind of " blame " Aristotle for this whole, good and bad idea, which it turns out, does seem obvious , but actually, is really hard to prove, on account of the amount of information necessary to actually determine which things are in fact good and which things are bad.  

For example, Aristotle would not have been able to distinquish a locomotive from an airplane, because they did not have any good examples of those things, at that time.  Therefore, he would have been unable to determine the " goodness " or " badness " of those things. On the other hand, he might have said a good deal about catipilars and butterflys.

Now, of course, Dr. Bohm did address this in his book The Undivided Universe, which clearly indicates that both all the good things and all the bad things are all in the " same " bag.  How or if the universe would distinguish those qualities is a bit hard for us, as not the universe, to assess.

So, if there is a point to this, you have to find it yourself.  But with that said, we can now get into some of Dr. Z's ideas on democracy, which may or may not be helpful to anyone.

Synchronicity

 So, this strange, word, which suggests something like, two things happening at the same time, which are seemingly disconnected.  So, that may appear first mostly in the works of Carl Jung, and the formulations of many of his concepts related to applications of phycology.   Now, to the best of my understanding, Irwin Schrodinger, in the late 40's and early 50's kind of latched onto this " concept ", in relation to describing the " kind of " physics, connected to biologicals processes.  So maybe this is funny or not, but during this same time Schrodinger was supposed to be working with Einstein on the >>> Unified Field Theorem <<< , I guess, the " Theorem " gives it all away.  At some point , Schrodinger may have given a >>> press conference <<<  in which he announced that " they ", had been successful.  Well, he had not previously consulted Einstein, and apparently Einstein response was, okay we are don...

Perplexity, absurdity, and power

 So, when you consider or imagine " absolute " power, you must also consider the issue of " infinite " work.  In other words, without the results or effects of power, you really don't know anything about it. Nevertheless, throughout most of human history, we have labored under this concept of " absolute " power, which in and of itself produces very difficult logical or mental conundrums.  Of course, Dr. Einstein was fairly successful in dispelling some of these odd conundrums in particularly as regards some of our notions related to the physical world and our " environment " so to speak, however, that required a life time of work, and the help of many colleagues over the years. But simply, even if you do consider the >>>> universe <<<<< to be an infinite amount of work and therefore requiring an infinite/absolute amount of power, well, if you're going to try and rustle up numbers that actually make sense, you ar...

Something, something, reality

 Now, when we reflect back on " reality ", most people will agree, >>> it's hard to do without it <<< Now, we might be able to figure out how Godel's Proof , ties back to all this stuff, but it seems to me that if you want to describe some kind of reality, then you pretty much have to talk about diversity, and so probably, possibly what you are really talking about is the " ability " to sort out, elements of diversity as being a substantive process which it kind of seems like is persistently .occurring.   This might occur through action like --->  back actions <--- of some different processes or  even ---> front action <----, which might be easier to comprehend. So , if you are an automobile, and you can travel to pretty much anyplace in the world within 1 hour, then, things might look a bit different, particularly if you are into variation and transformation.  So, for example, Ralphy will rarely go to Africa, unless, it's l...
