I, too, am fascinated by the "processing" aspect of it. I find
systems thinking generally to be extremely productive in
ascertaining POTENTIAL truth values, without actually having to
commit to any kind of Universal Absoluteness to any particular
system.
Whatever works now, works now with no anticipation that is
necessarily the best of what could work that we have yet to
systematize.
And, as you said so well, the Universe does what it does, is
what it is. Our ability to discern from our limited
observational capacities and tools we have is distinct from
that. It's all we have to work with; we need maps for the
territory as there's really no other way for us to navigate but
if a scribble turns out to not correspond to reality, we erase
and change it in pencil, because we may need to erase again, no
matter how certain our certainty is.
I enjoyed your thoughts and find myself in agreement. Usually I
nitpick one thing or another, but for a change, I'm just nodding
my head "yes, well said!"
