Neo-creationism between
science and obscurantism
Every generations has its own grasp of
reality. New quests in rediscovering old things
can lead to improve results. As an apple means
a very different thing for our ancestors and
gains other implications for us along time. As
the world is in need to unify opinions and
became conscious that parts growing do not
mean the same thing with a whole world that
grows. This might one of the motivation of
Neo-creationism's born.
The Science can explain things only in the
restrained frame that also The Science builds
along time for its self from obscurantist empiric
ideas. Science is struggling to identify Neocreationism as being one statement that
deserve to be scientific. Science do not have
momentary all the instruments to test itself for
being scientific or not, from its perspective of
testing all theories. Eventually Science will chose
consider Neo-creationism obscurant from same
reasoning that also science consider love being
only proven chemistry effect.

TRUTH THEORIES
Consensus theory of truth Consensus theory holds that truth is whatever
is agreed upon, or in some versions, might come to be agreed upon, by
some specified group. Such a group might include all human beings, or
a subset of consisting of more than one person. Among the current
advocates of consensus theory as a useful accounting of the concept of
"truth" is the philosopher Habermas who maintains that truth is what
would be agreed upon in an ideal speech situation – that is found within
communication between individuals when their speech is governed by
basic, but required and implied, rules.
The topic of Neo-creationism accomplish the required rules for an ideal
comunication :
1. Every subject with the competence to speak and act is allowed to take part
in a discourse.
2. Everyone is allowed to question any assertion whatever.
3. Everyone is allowed to introduce any assertion whatever into the
discourse.
4. Everyone is allowed to express his attitudes, desires and needs.
5. No speaker may be prevented, by internal or external coercion, from
exercising his rights as laid down in (1,2,3,4).
TRUTH THEORIES
Correspondence theory of truth or objective reality Correspondence
theories state that true beliefs and true statements correspond to the
actual state of affairs. This type of theory posits a relationship between
thoughts or statements on the one hand, and things or objects on the
other. It is a traditional model which goes back at least to some of the
classical Greek philosophers such as Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle. This
class of theories holds that the truth or the falsity of a representation is
determined in principle solely by how it relates to "things", by whether it
accurately describes those "things".
We are in a world that transcend through science the known saying
“Seeing is believing”. And it is expected for the better to be this way.
Neo-creationist hypothesis is only proved by our immediate reality and
this can be acceptable as a truth.

TRUTH THEORIES
Formal theories
Truth in Logic,
Interpretation
Validity,
Fact,
and
A necessary truth is a statement which is
true in all possible worlds. A logical truth is a
necessary truth of which is determined by its
so-called logical constants (eg. if, then, or, and
not, every).
A contingency is not a necessary truth and
its truth depends upon the world.
"All bachelors are unmarried" a necessary truth
but not a logical truth.
One theory is that necessary truths are all and
only analytic truths - true because of their
meanings, but this is disputed.
Analytical and philosophical approach of
the truth value of a statement
Ancient Philosophers
Ancient philosophers The ancient Greek origins of the
words "true" and "truth" have some consistent definitions
throughout great spans of history that were often
associated with topics of logic, geometry, mathematics,
deduction, induction, and natural philosophy.
Socrates's, Plato's and Aristotle's ideas about truth are
commonly seen as consistent with correspondence theory.
In his Metaphysics, Aristotle stated: “To say of what is that
it is not, or of what is not that it is, is false; while to say of
what is that it is, and of what is not that it is not, is true”.
Most influential is his claim in De Interpretatione (16a3)
that thoughts are “likenessess” (homoiosis) of things. Very
similar statements can also be found in Plato (Cratylus
385b2, Sophist 263b).
Although he nowhere defines truth in terms of a thought's
likeness to a thing or fact, it is clear that such a definition
would fit well into an overall philosophy.
Medieval philophers
Thomas Aquinas stated in his Disputed Questions on Truth:
A natural thing, being placed between two intellects, is called
true, insofar as it conforms to either. It is said to be true with
respect to its conformity with the divine intellect insofar as it fulfills
the end to which it was ordained by the divine intellect... With respect
to its conformity with a human intellect, a thing is said to be true
insofar as it is such as to cause a true estimate about itself. Thus, for
Aquinas, the truth of the human intellect (logical truth) is based on the
truth in things (ontological truth). Following this, he wrote an elegant
re-statement of Aristotle's view in his Summa Teologicae : Veritas est
adæquatio intellectus et rei. Truth is the conformity of the
intellect to the things. Aquinas also said that real things participate
in the act of being of the Creator God who is Subsistent Being,
Intelligence, and Truth. Thus, these beings possess the light of
intelligibility and are knowable. These things (beings; reality) are the
foundation of the truth that is found in the human mind, when it
acquires knowledge of things, first through the senses, then through
the understanding and the judgement done by reason. For Aquinas,
human intelligence="intus" (within) + "legere"(to read) has the
capability to reach the essence and existence of things because it
has a non-material, spiritual element, although some moral,
educational, and other elements might interfere with its
capability.
Robert
Wicks
discusses
Nietzsche's basic view of truth
as follows: Some scholars regard
Nietzsche's 1873 unpublished
essay, "On Truth and Lies in a
Nonmoral Sense" as a keystone
in his thought. In this essay,
Nietzsche rejects the idea of
universal constants, and claims
that what we call "truth" is only
Modern Philosophers
"a mobile army of metaphors,
metonyms,
and
anthropomorphisms." His view
at this time is that arbitrariness
completely
prevails
within
human experience: concepts
originate via the very artistic
transference of nerve stimuli
into images; "truth" is nothing
more than the invention of fixed
conventions for merely practical
purposes, especially those of
repose, security and consistence.
And might be so, but someone who can be
recognized as being more pragmatical, through
his legacy to the world – Einstein, used to say
that he spliced humans in two groups – one who
chooses to believe that magic exist in everything
that surround them, and another who believes
that nothing is magic in this world, and he
chooses to be amongst the first group.
Symbolism of the theory
In European esoteric philosophies - symbolically our
word may be reduced to four simple elements
meaning :fire – creation, start of action ; earth –
material, shape, stability ; water – emotions,
transformations ; air – movement, inspiration,
intelligence. An esoterist philosopher could
translate the Genesis in a way like this : God having
the inspiration (air) of creating (fire) life, gave us
shape from soil (earth) mixed with water
(emotions), after his own face and resemblance.
The psychologist, Carl Jung, who studied
archetypes,
proposed
an
alternative
definition of symbol, distinguishing it from the
term "sign". In Jung's view - a sign stands
for something known, as a word stands
for its referent. He contrasted this with
symbol, which he used to stand for
something that is unknown and that
cannot be made clear or precise. An
example of a symbol in this sense is
Christ as a symbol of the archetype called
“self"
The symbolism of Neo-creationism
The symbolism of Neo-creationism is being a
part of the Permanent Quest of Humanity
for Its Origins is also semantically
represented in almost all spoken language
as the saying : Who was first, The Egg or
The Chicken ? And there is no a right or
wrong answers – there is only Yin-Yangs
in a perpetual movement to regain The
Equilibrium through acceptance of being.
We keep forgeting what enlightened human
beings were trying to teach us in more than
one ways : “The time was invented just for
things not to happen all in the same
time”- Einstein. And there are not such
things as directions for this search Above or
Up for Our Origins – or Under or Down - for
finding Our Roots.
Scientific Research of Neo-creationism is
simply The Enlightement In The Dark Of
Obscurency in itself that must go on for
and in each one of us on the infinite way
of Moebus's Band.
THE CONCLUSION
Our endless struggle to rediscovery of our
Roots by recreating Life might be The Old
Fashion To Move A Rock - like we were
educated ourselves to Think..
Or is simply The Paradoxic Truth that Our
Origins were not Created yet.
