In primitive times, there was no such thing as ‘coincidence’ because all unknown and unpredictable events were interpreted as divine revelation. This reflects a religious and deterministic worldview. Since Christianity was dominant in the West, science also developed based on this deterministic perspective. However, with the rise of quantum mechanics, it has been revealed that the natural world we live in exists in an indeterminate state. Matter is in an uncertain state and becomes determined only when observed by an observer. In other words, the act of observation influences the behavior of the object being observed. To exist and to observe is a deeply metaphysical phenomenon. Do coincidences truly exist? When a decision was made in an undecided state, did God already know the outcome? How much freedom and discretion do humans really have? Does free will truly exist? - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Expertise is not “to know only me,” but “to make understanding others to know with what only I know for.” It is not expertise if I cannot persuade others by overwhelming them with my things. The expertise that failed to convince and communicate is called “stubbornness”. “Collective intelligence” is the expertise that succeeds in persuasion and communication, and does not mean a stubbornness that enforces consensus. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
