http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-27KVu4h7TQ What is Reality? Phenomena Vs. Noumena

This is a fairly short presentment on noumena (that which is in the material world) and phenomenal (that which is in the mental world). For those of you that don't bother with the video, feigning involvement without really becoming involved, excerpts:

At 2:50, "So since we are only fully aware of the phenomena that we humans fully experience with our basic five senses, how can we be so sure of what reality really is..."

At 3:32, "So while we are on sight we should talk about how we see the world around us aside from just colors. We look at objects and believe that we are seeing solid things. We believe our walls and doors are 100% matter, completely solid mass is how they seem."

At 4:12, ...your hand doesn't go through, and these objects are classified as solids, but you never touch them. When you feel a solid object you are actually just feeling the repulsive molecular force of the object telling you that it does not want to combine with you and it is not molecularly able to."

First, basic science has nothing to do with molecular structure nor the ability to define the exact nanometer wavelength of light. Basic science states the difference between solids and non-solids are based on displacement. Solids may not be displaced but non-solids will be thus flowing around a solid as it is displaced.

But, there can be no disputing any of this on a scientific basic but that is not what is meant, this is a discussion on noumenal and phenomena, philosophy. This is an attempt to restructure the metaphysical and epistemological values to override the ethical values of philosophy. Why? Let's continue.

But let's skip ahead past all the other stage setting of quantum physics and get to the meat.

At 6:50, "So you are starting to see what a huge difference there is between what our senses tell us and what actually exists in our Universe. Life is a lesson in humility, the things we know as 'facts' today will change. They have and they always will. Science is starting to see all the flaws that arise from the Big Bang theory and from the theory of evolution. That isn't to say that any religion seems to have a perfect answer either, but a mixture of science, mysticism and patience we will continue to find answers. We just need to keep asking questions, never let somebodies "facts" make you a slave to their beliefs." [emphasis added]

Well I would guess that this poor indoctrinated soul has never been introduced to natural law or this whole phenomena would have been understood, things don't change, man's perceptions do. But hey, that would be someone else's facts. But still this is just setting the stage.

At 8:12, "...We have been collectively awakening to the damage that is being done to ourselves and our environment for many years, due to the burning of fossil fuels, deforestation, and many other factors. We also see the problems that arise when some have an abundance of economic resources and many feel a lack thereof. All of our societal successes and failures can be categorized and inspected in their phenomena and noumenal states.

It is easy for us to fall into the blame game. The environmental issues are the fault of greedy industrial corporations, the inequality and failing economic system is the fault of a bloated and corrupt government, and all other problems are the fault of a nameable source, while all successes are attributed to individual hard work. Are these things truths or simply perceptions?" [emphasis added]

Now at 9:18 starts the solution phase of the presentment. Of course this starts with a plea to the emotions followed at 11:04 with the ultimate emotion, a plea for love. But if the first part of the presentation is true, how would one know what "love" truly is, after all it is phenomenal?

But at 12:24, we see the real destruction of the psyche, we are all but little cancers upon society if we don't share in the general welfare of all; collectivism, new world order, Agenda 21. And at 14:06, the death blow.

Ladies and gentlemen, what you have experienced is the environment of Germany circa the 1920's and 1930's leading up to Nazism. There was no hostile takeover, it was but the death of a philosophy, the Age of Enlightenment (Aristotelianism) killed by the Age of Romanticism (Platonism). And now this country over generations has gone from the Industrial Age to the Entitlement Age, a stage set for the finale, collectivism whether by facist or communist, welcome to the New World Order.
