Luther's reformation had its roots in the Bible; TTC's in the corpus of mathematics.

Energy dupliciter dicitur ie with and without information, ie first law only or first plus second law.
[page 121]
We conceive of physics as the flow of A through (or constrained by) B. The A is relative to the B. One way, the energy approach, considers the flow of action through time. Momentum considers the flow of action through space and action is the flow of pure form through spacetime.

All writing has some source. These pages are no exception. We give the role of author to a character owned by TTC. We place no bounds of colour, age, gender, race, nationality, religion or tribe on the actors who from time to time play this character.

Religions, though they deny it, are political entities, setting out to mould the minds of their

adherents to a common fiction, provided by theology, so as to ensure unity of action and so common survival. A heretic threatens this unity, and the survival it brings, so earning the wrath of the ruling powers.
Luther's biggest achievement was a democratic revolution in religion.
Trust in power/truth: what are the similarities and differences.
Politics Hard: Simple, fascist, high energy vs Soft: Complex, Democratic, high entropy.

Begin with economics, politics, religion and theology in that order, couching it in ancient and modern religious terms modified to suit the overarching fiction that the universe is divine.
...
Much of the trouble in the world is the result of stupidity, bloody mindedness, greed, fear etc etc. If we can eliminate all these things, we could get on a lot better together. The root of all peace is security. We can ensure security by applying Shannon's theorems, using headroom. Headroom is the basic social security payment, the grace of society = divinity.
[page 124]
We are in the process of applying a technology of peace. Like, say, Parsons and his turbine, raising the capital off the plan to realize the plan. This is how INTENTIONALLY LED development occurs.
Go to the logical limit. Exploit all entropy (?) We are looking to explore all possible combinatorial possibilities in order to find peaceful relationships between parts and wholes. Balancing the interests of the parts against the whole is the task of politics and the primary methodological problem for peacemakers.
[page 125]
Intelligent (failsafe) forethought.
Theology is a branch (the enveloping set) of dynamics:
War: liberation/oppression.
The basic dynamic question concerns peace and war. Peace grows, war diminishes (what?) Wise management.
Control must be able to cross a transfinite (one way) barrier.
The dynamics of whole and part is the heart of the matter in an environment of the survival of the fit.
