This web page contains the elaboration of my philosophical efforts of the last twenty years. For it there are a complete tabular overview ( World View) and essays addressing several topics.
It is not about describing all confusions and disoders correctly in detail. Insteat I had choosen a more a nature scientific approach which attempts to grasp the individual aspects in most possible clarity. To this day, if Galilei had tried to include the air resistance, we would not have the laws of falling bodies yet.
The central fundament is the Marxism. In particular, the Dialectic Of Nature by Friedrich Engels, I have a lot to owe. From The Capital clearly the theory of surplus. But one mustn't overlook at The Capital the chapter on machinery and large industry. It always is all about concrete production. I have got ideas and inspriations from Aristotle, Spinoza and the Kabbalah. For almost all questions one finds Aristotle with wise words. This one is my favourite sentence from Metaphysics:
ALL men by nature desire to know. [Metaphysik Buch 1, 980a21]
Education, today also TV, have to work heavily to wean the people from this striving for knowledge. What it is about Spinoza that fascinates is the strong thought of unity and his rational humanism, which made him being the precursor and guide of such important thinkers as Freud and Einstein, and caused Hegel to make the statement:
But the fact is that Spinoza is made a testing-point in modern philosophy, so that it may really be said: You are either a Spinozist or not a philosopher at all. [Hegel's Lectures on the History of Philosophy Section Two: Period of the Thinking Understanding Chapter I. The Metaphysics of the Understanding A 2. SPINOZA]
The breakthrough to my world view came with the occupation with Kabbalah. Kabbalah is not simply mysticism. It is an attempt to create a complete neoplatonic world view that makes heaven and earth rationally comprehensible. In that attempt regarding the methodology it is almost materialistic. Kabbalah insists on the existence of a world and its intelligibility. This it has in common with all the thinkers Aristotle, Spinoza, Marx/Engels, Freud and Einstein admired by me.
The core of my philosophy is formed by the conviction that four ontological steps exists. These recur and overlap in all things we are concerned with, sometimes more of this, sometimes more of that. Analytically, however, these layers can be and have to be separated thoroughly. They are physics/mechanics, chemistry, biology and humanity.
You should start with the tabular overview, then proceed whith Structure Of National Socialism and then read the rest, with a permanent return to the overview is recommended. A basic knowledge of natural sciences at todays state is required.
Last but not least, independent thinking is demanded.
Finally, Spinoza the word is given:
If there yet remains some sceptic, who doubts of our primary truth, and of all deductions we
make, taking such truth as our standard, he must either be arguing in bad faith, or we must confess
that there are men in complete mental blindness either innate or due to misconceptions, that is, to
some external influence. Such persons are not conscious of themselves. If they affirm or doubt
anything, they know not that they affirm or doubt: they say that they know nothing, and they say
that they are ignorant of the very fact of their knowing nothing. Even this they do not affirm
absolutely, they are afraid of confessing that they exist, so long as they know nothing; in fact, they
ought to remain dumb, for fear of haply supposing which should smack of truth.
Lastly, with such persons, one should not speak of sciences: for, in what relates to life and
conduct, they are compelled by necessity to suppose that they exist, and seek their own advantage,
and often affirm and deny, even with an oath. If they deny, grant, or gainsay, they know not that
they deny, grant, or gainsay, so that they ought to be regarded as automata, utterly devoid of
intelligence.
