When you get back on track.

This is the third in a series of posts reflec­ting on the gene­ral decline of civi­li­ty. These posts should be read in order of publi­ca­tion. Star­ting with num­ber six, for example, would make no sense to the rea­der. Hap­py reading!

You see, the rock example demons­trates a very inter­es­ting point. If our rock was ever sha­ped dif­fe­rent­ly, as small a dif­fe­rence as pos­sible, and we replayed the scene or redid the cal­cu­la­tions, we could still deter­mine the tra­jec­to­ry, although it might be different.

This deter­mi­nism is appli­cable to tan­gible rea­li­ty, but also to ele­ments that we can­not see. This sequence of action and reac­tion also affects our psy­cho­lo­gi­cal nature and becomes of unpre­ce­den­ted com­plexi­ty. A conti­nuous ten­sion of neu­rons unblo­cking a series of thoughts, reflec­tions and other judg­ments at levels of incom­pa­rable finesse that become what we call our personality.

This per­so­na­li­ty, which is unique to each of us, can be influen­ced just as the phy­si­cal world around us can. Envi­ron­men­ta­lism, for example, concerns the selec­tion of actions and inputs to actions (e.g. raw mate­rials for pro­ces­sing or use) which, in the worst case, do not pena­lize the envi­ron­ment or ideal­ly sti­mu­late it. Our per­so­na­li­ty can bene­fit from the same beha­vio­ral pat­terns and thought pat­terns in order to build a bet­ter world.

Here we are, my friends, without fur­ther ado, civility.
