KNOWLEDGE WITHOUT ETHIC AND ETHIC WITHOUT KNOWLEDGE

KNOWLEDGE WITHOUT ETHIC IS POINTLESS AND MISLEADING

 

· Knowledge serves cheaters and easily is used misleading.

· Ultimately, people are educated as cheaters to exploit weaknesses of the world and to make money.

· Undoubted knowledge without understanding well or without confirmation in our experience is transformed into faith.

· Knowledge can be useless until misleading and may even enhance the illusions and prevent an inve­stigation.

· Knowledge is always incomplete, and thinking inevitably passes from one thing to another without termination.

· Application of knowledge to be successful need even more knowledge, and the luck is sub­versive.

· Easily and often reveal that we were wrongly confident about the result. This is how we harm some others, but we also hurt ourselves. Because we had over­estimated our knowledge as well as our abilities.

· Most of our knowledge reflects things unique, rare, unrepeatable, things where we can not get closer and countless details, that will not occur in our own lives.

· Estimates and average calculations sometimes are necessary and faster than accurate knowledge with measurements and from efforts for knowledge of the greatest accuracy.

 

The following slogan is worldwide impor­tant: Morality without knowledge and thought is unfounded and in­sufficient, while know­ledge without spiritual orien­tation is unneces­sary and mislea­ding.*¹ "Unne­cessary know­ledge" be­cause we do not achieve better luck and life, nor do we achieve what we aim for or as we dream and expect them. "Mislea­ding know­ledge" be­cause just the opposite happens: we think that we know, we do not realize defi­ciencies of know­ledge, while after implementing (in­sufficient) our know­ledge, we probably destroy and even forget what we knew. "As igno­rance, error, and know­ledge can warps ethics, equally the lack of spiritual search and morality may distort and disorient knowledge and intellect". So, what is the meaning of knowledge and logic when they are means of misleading activities, pleasant delusion, and corroborate ourselves, and if we are thinking more with lies and fantasies? Then, how can we be fair, good, and happy?*² 

The intellect (or mind) is not isolated in nature. So, we speak of default for Ethics conso­lidated with logic. We talk about thinking and knowledge, but we seek a destination for these, that can not exist externally in the world only. Knowledge without mental orientation and rational thinking is unne­cessary and misleading. When we say "man is a rational animal," this phrase does not mean not making mistakes or that there is not ignorance and that inevitably we think with logic and that the intellect is not influenced by errors and ignorance. Knowledge is always incomplete, and the imagination is confused with things. Knowledge does not ensure the correct appreciation, and we can say more than we really know, even to forget! The role of knowledge and logic for the cheat, deception, pointless action, and exploitation of intel­lectual weaknesses is revealed. The best scammers are not afraid of know­ledge but are encouraged by it. The cheating, half-truths, and lack of information constitute a serious problem that goes beyond the limits of morality and mutates into cancer with metastases in all organs of society. The purpose of know­ledge is not necessarily getting rid of lies and fantasies, but it often serves the opposite.

But on the contrary, an ethic without knowledge and thought is unfounded and insufficient. Moral acts are possible even without thinking (such as a quick motion for protection of a life). The survival efforts or care for family can be estimated as a moral behavior. But (particularly in the modern world and in technologically advanced societies) if we do not recognize things, if we consider that things have a relationship while they have not or they have an opposite relationship, if we think that things have some features or are deprived, and we appreciate erroneousness, then we will act unjustly with erroneous thoughts and estimates.

1 * This brief statement summarizes a volume of pages with thoughts about the meaning of life. This was a spiritual beacon for the development of my philosophical views from their beginning  and published on the pages of my first book (pages 45, 355, 438). The total of thoughts and philosophical theory published it under the title "The Theology of Science" and for many years as manuscript was titled "Value of knowledge and knowledge of Value". Later I read the saying of Al. Einstein that approaching, but its importance is more limited (sociological, for the future of society): "Science without religion is lame; religion without science is blind". It was not said for the daily lives of every human being, as a spiritual foundation generally for every human life, and as a moral principle for an explanation of human behavior.

2 * A close relation of moral issues to questions of thinking had been simply and quickly placed at the beginning of the philosophical pursuit of a young man, despite his low educational level and expressive weaknesses. The coupling of ethics with thinking, the consequences of ignorance and delusion outwardly of mind (with behavior), and the delusion through knowledge are fundamental observations. The first thoughts were expressed at an early age in the 1980s, and they are contained in the book published later in January 2000 (only GR language, ISBN 960-385-019-5).
