Part 6
The remaining quality in order to have evolution is heredity.
How in Gods name can I have inheredible properties if I am the only conscient
mind to exist !?
We do have heredity and therefor evolution in the outside world, along the
lineages of variation, imitation and selection the brain brings ideas of here-
dity into the outside world.
Even so, my brain, as a solipsistic one, perceives the increase of the other
minds as some kind of heredible process, knowing for sure I won 't_heredity
is a quality which my brain produces in order to give me an evolutionary
picture of the reality out there.
In some sense, it is not even that. It is more of an illusion in order to
" explain " each time the slight different " readjustments " of ' reality '
which my brain lets me ' exhibite '.
I ' think ' the outside world evolves as in fact it is my brain which can 't
" replicate " an accurate picture of the previous imagetry.
But what about myself !? How can I propagate myself !? I can propagate
myself in a solipsistic way along the then somewhat perversive memetic
lineage of believing I am having sex with one of those humanoid objects.
But as an genetic organism I can also assume that my brain replicates
all of me into another unique container, but if ' I ' have died where is the
" me " going to !?
Slight different_ if my genotype was/ is accurate replicated where is the
phenotype gone to !?
That is, I percieve evolution in the outside world, my reality evolves along
the different memetic lineages inside my brain, but what about me !?
How is it possible that the ' Self ' ( as the only one known to itself to
exist) as an illusion stays in one of the other brains but that the ' ME '
disappears !?
This process begins with a rather unusual problem. Another solipsistic
brain !?
Impossible_that is contrary to the basis tenet of solipsism !!
If that is the case, the hypothesis is wrong. Pure and simple !!
Or, there is the possibility that I am one of the ' other minds '.
In that case I have the genetic line- up which is aquired for a heredible process.
That is, there is nothing that can exclude me being part of a greater con-
sciousness ( that is the one and only solipsistic mind).
Something I can emphize, because all what is and exists is happening
inside my brain. So, the idea of a mush greater consciousness is consistent with the solipsism doctrine, the idea is dependent on the one mind which is known to me to exist_MINE !!
In some way I am helping that greater consciousness somehow creating a
reality for it. In order to do so is it essential that I am aware of the fact that
I am the only mind known to exist.
Regarding such assumptions we have to emphasize that all the other minds
don ' t have to be conscient too. That is, to keep my reality going it is of no
necessity to define more than one mind conscient.
In that case the doctrine of solipsism stays coherent within its qualities and
the result is a solipsisitc world wherein memes find their place.
End of the Article
Some who read this article proposed to filter this through an alternative, even
a contradictory model to see if my ideas hold up.
I hope you all give me the boost to do that...
