I question what force demands social interaction. I assert that this
force is also a contingency rather than a necessity for individual
survival. As such, I see this "systems perspective" (which would
idealize the contingency over the necessity) as being the illusion of
"immortality" (or "something") which is condoned socially to the
disregard of lawful forces (like logic, cause/ effect, truth, etc.).
Most simply I am saying: Yes, we can buy into a systems view such that
a "many headed beast" might rise to the surface "on the waters of many
nations" (a pluralistic "truth" can be socially agreed upon); but, when
this social agreement is overturned by the lawful consistency which it
aspires to deny... all energies contributed to the system will likewise
be negated to nothing such that the laws to which all things more
properly reduce (the law of an individual existence acting as its form
suggests it function-- and INDIVIDUAL because we cannot say that a thing
reduces to a process which does not include *thingness*)... this law--
of "being"-- must eventually manifest its logic contrary to a social
agreement that it not.
