We're all day and always in a barrage, a barrage of differences. Because only differences we can perceive. It starts at the physical level using electromagnetic vibrations or sound waves, without the difference between high and low amplitude oscillations not. This continues on a biological level, in the exercise that works only on nerves their messages are frequency modulated, ie, differences in distance between their amplitudes. And that leads to the infinite variety of building upon impressions and thoughts, each of which are never without its opposite.
Whether the differences here rather exist in a continuum as the sound pressure, or whether they are diskrekt such as pregnancy (pregnancy is a bit does not really exist), which is not so important here. It is essential that the world consists solely of differences that, yes, we have to evaluate.
how free we feel (also a difference: free: not free!), This finding is also not immediately important. The differences There are, indeed, they almost make out the existence, if we look at it or not. More or less restrictions do not alter the amount of the differences with which we are confronted continuously.
more or less restrictions, support, frame, however, have influence on the way we deal with the differences. Rules, beliefs, corsets are in fact invariably means of evaluating differences. Whether a particular noise is loud or soft, it is clear not only by the presence or absence of ear pain, but also eg by the laws. Pregnant or not is not a question of faith, but which side of that difference to be considered as good or bad is entirely.
true: false and good: bad are the classic drawers into which we classify differences and constant rule-based. These drawers are man-made, because they point to a state value, which he naturally can not have. Nature knows no values, but only states as results of changes along causal chains. In nature and without a judgmental observer everything is just the way it is.
That is not natural that even animals do not sit down differences with respect and they judge to be desirable or to avoid, and therefore as good or bad. This assessment is not at all or not as much aware as humans.
However, once awareness when assessing in play, it changes qualitatively. Suddenly, the result is in fact not inevitable and quasi berechnenbar. Conscious assessed by definiton is rather a results open judging. At least, actually. Because the reservation again and again and does it make any difference even from just the awareness. as everyone can attest who has ever tried to deliberately tried to prevent a fall - so to speak, consciousness is the opposite of automatic.
The interesting judgments about differences are the ones that are made at the level of consciousness, or at least could be like. All others are indeed at least outside the control of spontaneous and run automatically.
are certainly aware of the judgments to be felled only a tiny portion of the total amount of all judgments in every moment. Nevertheless, or perhaps because they make us grief. For with conscious decisions we're asked, not an automated instance in us. And if we are asked, that our consciousness, then the output of the assessment is first and foremost principle open. We can always consciously decide one way or another or completely different. At least we think so, if we postulate a fundamental freedom of the will, and which I will here assume once.
the openness of our conscious decisions, we are now but certainly not (always) right. On the one does the balance of the assessed options time and effort. Especially in an ever faster moving world seems counterproductive. On the other hand, a sentence, a choice later turn out to be suboptimal with respect to the intended purpose. We opt for a washing machine - and the next day to read a leaflet advertising a special offer with 20% discount for the same model. Or we can choose for crossing a red traffic light - and a police officer overlooked the street, which places us at once to the speech.
conscious decisions involve so per se and to the threat of "how to's, it's done wrong."
Therefore, it seems to me there has been a co-evolution of consciousness and awareness corsets. Or put differently: consciousness could not emerge just like that, but had to slow to shell out for biological automation. But then it has stripped the country, but worn in the form of mental corset with it. On the possibility of false judgments, it needs to consciousness as it were used to.
That does not matter. Rather, it is quite natural. But these corsets are still opposed to the intended purpose of awareness enjoyment of freedom through self-determination. Because self-determination requires even conscience as the core.
ie: if you want to be free to determine who is would that do must also be awareness and thus also their own, quasi-manual judgments. is a joyful life of self determination, it is not without conscious evaluation of us laying under a barrage differences. And so I'm
back to PQ: A Philosophical attitude will help with the barrage to be done, without slipping into (outdated) corset. In PQ are therefore devoted to the judgments, ie decisions and values, ie standards. And so it goes also to (self-) responsibility and the constant possibility of miscarriages of justice, ie failure.
