CONSUMMATION

THE CONSUMMATION OF ALL THINGS Ours is a material existence. I am. We are. You are--assert matter. But matter, without spirit, is lifeless and is inert . Matter is material, is being. Matter is perceptible, measurable on certain planes, on others not so. Materials define, confine, refine forms and/or dimensions of solids. Yet forms follow preexisting ideas; likewise does matter or materials . Uranium isotopes, for example, being radioactive are amenable to nuclear division on megaton, massive scales, as is plutonium , if their nuclei are split, when they are precisely bombarded with great force, speed, energy. In contrast, isotopes of other elements, other than these two fission is less. The differences in fission are material; are due to the underlying material. Moving away from nuclear physics, chemistry, to cultural anthropology, materials, hence human spiritual differences, attend living behavior. Elemental is original. Isotopes are transitional. Artificial devolved from original, as isotopic from elemental. Acculturation determines materials in mankind. Rigorous synchronized training, feeding, working, playing , planning, disciplining , rewarding to some discrete groups, in times, by chosen masters, perfect materials. This acculturation process may be their desired ends; consequential, incidental, or otherwise, meaning process may also produce effects, affects, not intended, unforeseen, in culture of humans, nonhumans. This is literally because even the most basic of materials consist of unknown, unknowable, attributes, components, deficits, excess being more than they may appear to be. What is true of an elements' covert materials, is true too in elementary compounds, plants, birds, animals, germs, insects, and in so-called "non-living" materials. This is most especially true to mankind, which is the "consummation of all" of these things, and more, materials-wise. "For Ye are gods and all of you are children of the most high God ; but you will fall like princes and die like men; Arise O God, judge the earth. For Thou shall inherit all nations." Psalms 82:6-8
