Wittgenstein’s Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus

Borrowing from Wittgenstein’s way of introducing propositions, I propose a method by which communicated/emanated ideas become cellular memory.

It is possible to emulate the self-adornment of these propositions by studying the traits and behavioural artifacts of the ‘native’ memes.

It is quite evident that there are primary, secondary and tertiary elemental propositions.

This theory was formulated through introspective observation of my relationship with broadcast media and its effects on me, although reinforced in full by its effects on others around me.

Primary Propositions

• Origin of life
• Trust based on intuitive processes
• Existence of extraterrestrial god
• Configuration of body phisiology

Secondary Propositions

• Group or social relationships
• Close knit dynamics and rules of engagement
• Incest/Monogamy/Polygamy
• Submission of guilt
• Traversal of guilt and other non-desirable feelings and behaviours

Tertiary Propositions

• Encountered ideas via active/passive communication methods
• Ideas do not immediately / apparently persecute Primary propositions

The Preface

When an active persecution of the primary elemental propositions is detected, secondary and/or tertiary elemental propositions play very important roles in re-upholstering the primary elemental proposition(s). In fact, it can be hypothesised that the secondary and tertiary elemental propositions exist to continuously validate and eventually protect the primary propositions.

It is entirely possible to cause primary elemental propositional examination by passive persecution. Eg, the use of imagery (art/music/sound/visual cues) in the form of pulsed light and sound harmonics.

We need to establish average time scales for each of the elemental propositions in terms of their ability to be paradigm shifted.

Ideas ideas everywhere, not a thought to think

The proliferation of mass media has inevitably resulted in the equal expotential growth in ideological memes. These memes truncated or otherwise generally are treated as tertiary propositions by the mind.

The nature of these propositions cause no immediate threat to secondary or primary propositions at an anatomical level purely because they have not yet been decoded in a cellular fashion.

Generally speaking, tertiary propositions can be considered benign at face value. However ALL tertiary propositions have the ability to shift in or shift out base level primary propositions if even of them are aggregated.

The Aggregation of Propositions

Over time, as more and more tertiary propositions aggregate based on our mind’s ability to pattern match, the “pattern matching” hippocampal neural networks form to validate and solidify the old addage “neurons that fire together, wire together”.

At this point, the aggregated tertiary propostions have formed a secondary proposition logic network in the brain.

The apparent realisation when this happens is one recognising that one’s behaviour has changed in a manner that one would not have expected or considered in the past.

Some consider it epiphany. It is interesting to note that the original meaning behind that word is the manifestation of Christ to the Gentiles as represented by the Magi.

Once a secondary proposition is formed, its direct connection to the tertiary propositions becomes apparent but no longer questioned directly even if one or more of the constituent tertiary propositions are dispelled/discarded.

The Assimilation of Ideas to Cellular Memory

Effectively the journey from secondary to primary is no longer a function of aggregation as it presents too simple a method of avoidance and obscurity for the subconscious.

The method by which a secondary proposition and/or propositions can manifest to a primary level proposition involves a time frame at a neurological and physiological level involving neurotransmitters and peptides that are systematically released through the activation of the hippocampal logic networks.

The continual programming of the extra-cranial cells in the body results in a body-wide acceptance of the secondary proposition(s) resulting in an autonomous response to specific stimuli, leading to an immunological / physiological response to once apparent benign ideas.
