________________________


...SIMPLY Christof's Koch foreword in general is : "Memento homo, quia es, et in pulverem reverteris"
Remember, Oh man that you are dust, and unto dust you shall return. Genesis 3:19

...To admit truly, until the New Testament of the Bible, Hades, Hell and Heaven Eternity is not determined as clearly different...! And Eternity is questioned !

...In the: Introduction to the Study of Consciousness [ And since Rene Descartes ], we get a foreword: "Consciousness is what makes the mind-body problem really intractable... Without consciousness the mind-body problem would be much less interesting. With consciousness it seems hopeless. From: What Is It to Be a Bat ? by Thomas Nagel.

...any further studies are for my Book 2 in a collective chapter or chapters on mind-body-consciousness-cognitive science, etc.

...THUS CLEARLY I AM NOT ANALYZING LIGHTLY, THOUGH QUITE EASILY AND SIMPLISTIC IN WORDS ! MATHEMATICS IS THE SIMULATION WITH NUMBERS OF REALITY ! 


In purelogic I cannot limit analysis to logic equations like : A < > B ; thus B < > A, in which it could be B < A, or B > A, or but in some cases it could be that B = A, but A < > B, and so on ...!
I'll think up an answer for that one...! Simply these logic equations exemplify what is not clearly known in Science, or other things ! Simply again it depends on how you define "A" and "B" and what the comparisons are, as equations imply "comparisons": equalities, differences, greater than, smaller than, etc...!

So for another example:
A) A tree is not an animal
B) An animal is not a tree
C) Are they living beings ?
D) Hence trees do not have a
consciousness.

So A < > B and B < > A as to trees
and animals, but also B = A, and
B = A as to a living being, but  

A = B only as a living being but
does not have a defined conscious-
ness, thus B < > A. The greater
or smaller than symbols are used
instead of not-equal, because of
bigger implications, in which
genomes are smaller or bigger...!

SO LETS NOT MAKE MATHEMATICAL LIMITATIONS TO PURE LOGIC. AND LETS LEAVE IT FOR ACADEMIA excersizes and studies, to quantify for reasons of putting it on paper...!
