Dogma-foolish
Dogmatize as the narrow
assertion in rigor of thought,
uncritical in bias,
unnecessarily the provability,
exposes the person who thinks like that,
as dogma-foolish, that is limited.
To claim the opposite as dogma-clever
is only word fraud,
because implicit in it is
the stupidity of no developing
to transcend horizons
as knowledge growth preparation.

“Philosophy is for everyone“ – Volker Spierling points this out. If theoretical philosophy investigates what is and practical philosophy what should be, then the theoretical philosopher will certainly be interested in what has struck and occurred to another mind as “should be“ or “ought to be“ and, above all, the coherent reasoning for it. “Know the world“ – this is what Richard David Precht demands, but probably not only by philosophically expressed as a subjective external view in search of “truth“, but “know the world“ beforehand in its natural material and principle reality and search for its coherent basis. This needs first of all the critical turning to scientific results and statements and leads now over into the “art of thought“ of philosophy, in order to take a critical stand against it: What contradicts itself, when was this stated, where can one find logical thinking, which assumptions are evident, what is fantasy, what is dogma – and above all: What is proven as a conclusive result of thinking and not only claimed as proven. That is why turning to smart people and other disciplines is beneficial. Not to think through good thoughts is ignorance. “The true is the whole“, Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel. In the present book shall not only be asserted what epistemo-logically claims to be proved. As the digital technique shows unambiguously that 2+2 = 4 result, the analog technique “around 4“, so the condition shall be true that Heidegger’s “nothing“ as supra-nothing or as never-present is only “not“ (not “cannot be“, because what “can“ is already no longer nothing). The condition for this is the fact of a consequent thinking, but also that of a logical thinking. What now becomes necessary from this result of thinking for the determination of “being“ is the actual interesting thing. Maybe this can even interest one or the other physicist (I know and appreciate several).

Voll halber Schwäche nach Abendtrunk Full of half weakness after evening drink
On a long voyage from Odessa to Buenos Aires, standing 0-4-watch at night on the calm Atlantic at the steering wheel of the tanker “Elisabeth Entz“, a conversation developed between me and the officer on watch II. Officer Melles, which led into a philosophical level, which reminded me of one of our teachers in past school years. At that time, in the early 1950s, as a history teacher who had returned from Russian captivity, he sparked a strong interest among many of us in his philosophical rationales that explained the facts of National Socialism and June 17, 1953 in a profound way. To do this passionately was a consequence of his pre-war studies, in which the philosophical portion had been a high one. Melles had given an answer after the question what to do in case of an erroneous world view, that a ship, if it had run aground on a sandbank and was looking for a solution, had to be pulled back to the origin of the wrongly set course with foreign tug assistance or also with own power. Better than anything else, this metaphor could clarify a strong new realization for me. After professional transition, technical studies, long-time authoritative positions (analog inertial navigation system) and development of complex industrial analog and digital technology systems (e.g. fast ultra-precision measurement technology) philosophical-ontological findings in scientific fields often caused the decision-making processes for measures on such developments for the benefit of the applying people especially in harsh industrial production environments.
What is the basis of a fundamental-ontological knowledge – surely on the subjectively interpreted truth of a searching human being, who was on his way to find in his “art of thought“ (Richard David Precht) a non-dogmatic, but objectively explainable reality, which is completely independent from him. For this, the application of logic is predetermined, in addition there is the consideration of physical facts and preconditions from the total world reality which are conclusive in themselves. As a philosophical area, the ontology deals with the being in the Being and with the fundamental reality structures, with the universal reality and its material and immaterial contents. The non-contradiction in ontological statements is a law of philosophical ontology, which is to be strictly considered for the avoidance of implausibility and fully agrees with the philosophy of technology. Also in the technical system development every thought deviation leads to malfunction and disappointment. Only the nature is the owner of all true propositions (Paul Lorenzen), so that the human being cannot avoid nature and logic by applying ontological “thought art“.
