Without the steady march of time, this unity of behavior disappears, and there are simply a million disparate entities.

It might seem the opposite, that if the physical laws are eternal and
universal time is actually opposed to this insofar as it represents
dynamism, change. In other words, a view of the universe from a
materialist perspective at any given moment shows that everything in the
univese is different in the sense of being distinct. I would have
thought that evolutionary biology would have provided an adequate
explanation of this, as well as the recurrence of what we call altruism.
Nor is the notion that rape is bad an example of state coercion. In
other words, only indviduals can determine their own sources of
happiness. That formulation is, as I believe I have said before,
perfectly monstruous.

in our society, the State.
If it were, we could have basically stopped after the Greeks figured out
a fair amount of geometry. But we shouldn't forget an equally important
lesson, articulated most forcefully by Nietzsche: The health of a person
and a people also depends vitally on the capacity to forget.
Somehow the fact that he considers envy to be a principal element of
human happiness does not place very severe limits on the harmoniousness
of individual happiness.
That formulation is, as I believe I have said before, perfectly
monstruous.
The dilemma is that when individuals pursue personal gain, the net
result for society as a whole may be impoverishment. Conversely, if a
hypotheis is corroborated with a positive answer, the theories behind it
stand validated until a hypothesis receives a negative answer. His
theory is that above a certain level of material subsistence people are
motivated primarily by status-seeking and the desire for a high rank
within their social group. To some extent this seems to cut against the
basic scientific impulse to simplify, to generalize, which is what a law
or an equation generally does.
Thus, things will have to be changed until they produce accurate
predictions.
If one does not wish to be this deterministic about it, perhaps one
should allow more latitute to individuals to discover their own
conception of happiness.
This at least is the goal.
I think that that is neither true nor a good value. Freedom is not an
act or a thought, but rather a set of conditions under which action and
thought occur. On the face of it, it might be surprising that the set of
rotations of three space should itself look anything like three space.
Do this with every single point on the sphere, each point and its
antipodal point meeting each other but meeting no other points. The
dilemma is that when individuals pursue personal gain, the net result
for society as a whole may be impoverishment.
But not to worry, if you walk across the infinity line again, you get
flipped back to normal.
But in reality the sameness of the universe upon which science is
predicated is not a a sameness at any particular moment, but rather a
sameness of behavior.

the results that those studies have yielded. In other words, only
indviduals can determine their own sources of happiness.

Obviously, this is a handy thing to have a grasp on and this is why we
care about special orthogonal matrices. That formulation is, as I
believe I have said before, perfectly monstruous.

The intuitive picture is that of a smooth surface. in our society, the
State. Therefore, the increasing wealth of the society will not increase
happiness because people measure their well-being relative to the group,
not by their absolute prosperity. However, he also thinks that theories
are conventions and definitions of concepts, not true descriptions of
physical phenomena based necessarily on experimental results. If it
were, we could have basically stopped after the Greeks figured out a
fair amount of geometry. Freedom is not an act or a thought, but rather
a set of conditions under which action and thought occur. Forgetting is
necessary to free ourselves from imperfectly understood "lessons of
history," so that we can see the challenges ahead clearly, without
preconceptions or prejudice.
Nor does it constitute a tyranny of the majority, because he claims that
in an ideal utilitarian society the happiness of the most unhappy would
be considered of pre-eminent importance. So it is an element of science,
but incomplete.
