Nothingness Theory

The connection between the evolution of the universe and human thought

Overview:

A singular force, attraction-to-equilibrium, underlies the laws of nature, and evokes the process of human thought. Its ultimate expression is perfectly symmetrical static uniformity, a state termed here as “nothingness”.

On a cosmic scale, as the universe redistributes itself evenly through the inexorable pull of entropy, it approaches expanded nothingness. On a macroscopic scale, as matter aggregates into larger and larger bodies until they collapse in upon themselves, the nothingness of compressed uniformity is approached. This tension between infinite cycles of compressed and expanded uniformity endows the universe with its particular form.

Nothingness Theory is the explanation of how this is manifest in scientific, philosophical, and theological principals. The main body of the general theory is focused on the science, and therefore, the divisions of philosophy and theology are not explicitly delineated. The author intends to remedy this in the future. In the meantime, the document is structured in this way:

The science of Nothingness Theory reveals how physical laws are connected by explaining the role of attraction-to-equilibrium in every physical system. This is the main content in the general theory.

The Philosophy of Nothingness Theory explains the role of attraction-to-equilibrium in human brain/mind systems. This content is currently found in various places in the document such as essays in Applied Nothingness Theory, and the unfinished conclusion to the general theory entitled "Thought and Consciousness".

The Theology of Nothingness Theory explores the essence of what humanness is, which is the awareness that transcends physical mechanisms - the awareness of oneness  - where all things are joined. One might think of this as spiritual equilibrium. The heart of this - the universal pure core of self-awareness shared by all humans - is arguably awareness of God. This content is to be found in commentary by Msgr. Walter Niebrzydowski - Pastor of the Epiphany Roman Catholic Church in New York City.

The general theory acts as a central point from which its ideas can be explored through the other sections and related material. The author intends to expand the site to include media such as graphics, video, and music, and links to other sites.

It is comforting to recognize an elegant and intelligible form underlying the behavior of our natural world. Nothingness Theory is the expression and detailed exploration of this beautiful form, manifest in the dynamics of existence.
