APPENDIX V:
Hypothesizing about Cosmic
Origins
Clearly, this –
hypothesizing about cosmic origins –
hypothesizing about cosmic origins –
is the most challenging aspect of metaphysics.
Now, while one can write
with conviction about the
with conviction about the
elegance of a hypothesis, one cannot truly write
with conviction about the validity of
a cosmological
a cosmological
hypothesis.
But the near-certain validity per se, of a
cosmological
cosmological
hypothesis is not truly the conceptualizer’s goal.
For, in dealing with the
realms of the innite and cosmic
realms of the innite and cosmic
origins, our levels of consciousness to date (and
perhaps
perhaps
for a long time to come) may simply be inadequate
A worthwhile goal, however,
would be a more dynamic
would be a more dynamic
and elegant hypothesis than has hitherto been offered.
That is what Summa proposes.
We seek to advance forward
– another layer or two –
– another layer or two –
towards cracking the cosmic code. We do not presume
to articulate the penultimate core.
