“Thus there is operating within the disciplines of medicine, public health, social science, and now economics, a research framework that, if successful, would locate the causes of negative human outcomes internally. At fault will be genes and not circumstances. It is an officially sanctioned and scientific version of “blame the victim”.”

Are we surprised? This latest example of reductionist, inductive science (in this case, not “atoms,” but “genes” are “at the bottom” of everything) is as doomed as any other. In a quantum field of infinite possibilities, let’s face it, there is no “bottom.” While this may feel like a nightmare to those who fear the “infinite regress” in logic or the nighttime terror of falling through space, for the rest of us, it liberates.

Take those conceptual helmuts off, folks. Shake your hair loose! Let your mind expand as far as it wants to go, and then keep on going. Simply, there is no end to the universal field of exploratory play.
