Everyone is well aware of the issues that are relevant to contemporary society and there is little need to discuss further, the method of identifying influences that affect us. Philosophical integrity is, on the other hand, an issue that is consistently avoided by cult gurus, and rarely considered by the reading public. The true test of a complex philosophical idea is not the statistical sum of its parts, but rather is how the individual assessment of each of the parts fits with the framework defined by the overall idea. </p> <p>An excellent example is the issue of "infallibility". Two authors assert that an individual holding a position will be infallible:</p> <ol> <li>"A" asserts that God will confer infallibility on the lucky individual, "C", in matters pertaining to the position.</li> <li>"B" asserts that by nominating "C" to act in his absence, "A" confers legal infallibility upon "C" thereby obligating those in the care of this individual to assume at all times that "C" has the best interests of "A" at heart and is always supported by "A" regardless of absence or circumstance.</li> </ol> <p>The problem is in determining whether a philosophy embracing the worldviews of both "A" & "B", is internally consistent. At first glance, we observe that "A" & "B" are talking about two totally different things, yet we see a partial overlap of two distinct statements in the common assertion of the partial infallibility of "C". </p> <p>However, on closer inspection we can see that regardless of the apologetics of the situation, both "A" & "B" are promoting the same outcome or required action. The overlap of seemingly contradictory ideas is thus confirmed by a common outcome. This deems the philosophical integrity of this set of ideas to be true in the absence of any other context.</p> <p>As in all things, global context controls all outcomes. Thus if the organisation to which, "A", "B", & "C" belong asserts that God is a supernatural meddler, the definition would exclude the reasoning of "B", regardless of the commonality of outcome - making the philosophical integrity of such a collection false. If on the other hand, this organisation asserts that God is love, then reasoning of both "A" & "B" would be identical given the assumption that "C" in acting out of love for the will of "A" is guided by that love and therefore guided by God. This is referred to as complete overlap.</p> <p>For more information on binary and ternary logic along with local context analysis plus simple & compound nested analysis, check out a product called IQ Power by clicking <a target="_blank" href="http://www.fieldcraft.eu/shop/iq-power/Gate.shtml">HERE</a>. </p> <A HREF="http://www.fieldcraft.com.au/ki.htm"> </A><A HREF="http://home.iprimus.com.au/timothycasey/ki.htm"> </A>
