Not yet ready for prime time in 1915....

Currently this blog is still being formatted with boilerplate and is not yet set up. One of the themes still being considered for this site is something new I call anecdotal genealogy. We see that the concrete world changes or evolves which is easy to think about but the abstract world is governed by forces we do not readily see. The upshot is one is never ready and will never really know enough so it is forced upon us to begin the journey without being reassured of the result.

spirit of events against letter of the event

With all the technological devices employed today to record events not one of them can record the spirit of the event any better than historians in the deep space of ancient time. Technological advances record the letter of the event but not the spirit. That requires the same tools today that ancient writers used to describe events then.

everything is fiction once in the past


Everything in the present becomes, once there, immediately tangled in the past. Once this happens nothing can be proved  with absolute certainity. This for the primary reason being originally everything came from the unseen, which is itself born out of the projected basis of faith and belief. When history is revealed as debatable illusion, then only fiction remains. Everything begins in fiction, revealed as fact, and immediately dissolves into the fictional vague and uncertain past. Since the best we can have in the matter are our opinions, that is all we are ever left with. It is this for which we are responsible. We are our own memories, no matter how less diligently we seek to understand them.
