Singularity

Singularity keeps more intensity than most societies can bear to sustain. Simply, because it is so singular. Strangely enough, mankind does not often seek to determine the end of such singularity. Perhaps this is because of the subtle mathematical inclinations of the human mind? Practical, functional power is not quite so clear or indefinite as to contain within itself the mention or conception of the infinite. Thus, while it is always an option; efficiency demands that this option is ignored, at least for the moment of the practical exploration of the function. Thus, it is quite startling that singularity closely holds itself to the frustratingly logical perception of reality that is mathematics. It is these mathematics which conditionally holds values to measurements and thus distracts the pursuer from its quarry; that is, from infinite value. In this way, values cease, at least in a dogmatically mathematical way, to have their otherwise assumed ability to attain what philosophers would call immortality.

Oddly enough, values, in the conceptions of mankind have an frustratingly illogical longevity of life which challenges the mathematicians of our time to question their ability to measure such values in a purely objective way. What deep danger may we possibly meet when we allow values to become less than their original placeholders for goals or aims and to sink to mere pictographs; the visual placeholders for objects which may or may not be seen the same from various angles? I fear this danger is much more than the danger which scientists sought to combat with the institution of Latin in their otherwise linguistically diverse society.

Singularity then, in its intense specification of a single goal or aim is seeking, in a very unobtrusively and almost arbitrary way, to combine the infinite reality of possibility to the probable application of the moment. Thus, in the very moment that one is singular in one's intention, practice, and relation to reality, the values infused within that formula are allowed to have infinite meaning; the placeholders themselves become valuable. The eternal is valued because it is such. Such eternally implied values are then infinitely precise in their obligation; for their timelessness is what empowers what we may, in the future consider; earnestness.

At what point does value then take an infinite value? Philosophically, mathematics arbitrarily allows values to jump from stagnant corruption to precipitating immortality. Eternal reality collides with present possibility and those things which are hypothetically applied in various situations take on infinite value. Ethics derives itself from morality at that exact point in which eternity enters into the finite equation. In mathematics, this is singularity. And when it comes to Mathematics, my precipitation reaches the end of its motivation.
