Stephen P. Smith's Trinity

One of the unsolved riddles in science is the origin of biological information. I believe that vitalism and a universal grammar may help explain that riddle, and I will now explain how this is possible. A transcendent emotion carries a potentiality that implies intelligence, assuming for the sake of argument that an intelligent designer is connected to the innate vitality that comes with the expression of emotionality. Otherwise, I would not attempt to disentangle emotion and intelligence. So I could agree that intelligence is ubiquitous in the universe, enough to intelligently design life in a test tube by copying parts of existing life. I grant to folks that pretend to be intelligent, and beyond emotion, their definition of “intelligent.” Here intelligence is sometimes given as a one-sided expression of deduction and induction that is only thought to be self-contained. However, the fallacy of excluded middle is discovered, and if intelligence is given by deduction and induction (which I will grant) it must be that emotion is found sourcing the middle-term that had been conveniently ignored. By implication, this describes my usage of “intelligence” and “emotion.” Returning to the issue of universal grammar, note that much of the effort in communication is in stripping away intense word games that get in the way of understanding, thereby returning to the undifferentiated unity where understanding is immediate because there is only One (as I hypothesize in my book).
