The Metaphysical, Source of all Science and Essence of all Religion
If we always come back to Plato and Aristotle, it is because they have established once and for all, scientifically and philosophically, what the Cause is and how it can be accessed; this is what is known as metaphysics. Therefore, all science depends on it and all religion essentially relates to it.

About the Manufacture de l’homme apolitique
If “democracy” itself, plutocratic from the outset in the USA as well as in France, and explicitly confiscating power from the people, ends up transforming citizens into apolitical inhabitants, ultraliberalism, by vassalizing the States, gradually renders them just as apolitical. The manufacture of apolitical man is an irreversible trend. If Caëla Gillespie’s meticulous analysis makes awareness clear, we’ll just have to devise a plan of action for resistance.

Wealth production: an unthought-of aspect of economic theory
The pursuit of productivity for its own sake, by lowering prices and increasing volumes, certainly makes it possible to capture a greater share of the value circulating in trade. But it is here that the contradiction inherent in the idea of “wealth production” becomes clear, long after Adam Smith: in the relentless quest to produce better, faster and therefore cheaper, we destroy the value of what we produce, hoping to capture a greater share of wha twe don’t produce.

On the Difference between Artificial and Human Intelligence and the Ethical Implications of Their Confusion.
Professor Sarah Spiekermann chaires the Institute for Information Systems and Society at the Vienna University of Economics and Business (WU Vienna) since 2009. A recognized scientist in the field of digital ethics, in 2016 she founded the Privacy & Sustainable Computing Lab at the University of Vienna (renamed “ Sustainability Computing Lab ” in 2020) and served as vice-chair of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) working group that resulted in the first IEEE Standard Model Process for Addressing Ethical Concerns during System Design: the IEEE Std 7000™-2021 standard.

About prayer
Using the words of a priest addressed to a child to give him three aspects of praying to God, we can discover the highest spiritual values. This is what will be followed here, before moving from words to silence, from sporadic acts to permanent prayer.

Metaphysics of Love
Given the importance universally given to love, here’s a glimpse of what it’s like theologically and practically, allowing us to sketch out a metaphysics of relationship that advantageously complements a sometimes inadequate metaphysics of being.

About metapolitics on the metafysikos website
When Joseph de Maistre took the word Metapolitik from German philosophers into French, he understood it in terms of the metaphysics of politics. Aldo La Fata’s panorama of metapolitics is much broader, going back to a Christian usage in canon law and has spread, in line with current usage in various Western cultures (Spain, Italy, […]

Genealogy of metapolitics
After a biographical work dedicated to Silvano Panunzio and published in the “Tabula fati” collection by Marco Solfanelli’s publishing house: Silvano Panunzio. Vita e pensiero, Edizioni Solfanelli, Chieti 2021, this condensed article is dedicated to the metapolitical perspective of the famous traditional writer, Silvano Panunzio, about whom little has been said until now.

Newtonian & Aristotelian Physics
The point here is to show that Newton’s concept of absolute space is not as problematic as once thought, and that the conflict between relationalists and substantivists can be resolved. All we need to do is adopt Wolfgang Smith’s ontological distinction between the corporeal and the physical. This will show that absolute space and relationalism are just two sides of the same coin. As a result, certain questions of mechanics, such as motion, traditionally regarded as physical, are in fact metaphysical and can be explained accordingly.

BACK TO PYTHAGORAS
The physics of the cosmos presents extravagant anomalies; yet, in three minutes, the elementary physics calculation gives the half radius of the universe, which the latest measurements confirm, eliminating the “expansion of the universe” and replacing the Big Bang by a Permanent Bang in a Cosmos constituted by the sweep of a single particle, the electron. This 1997 calculation is in a sealed envelope that has just been requested to be opened (2024). After the three revolutions in cosmology (Copernican-Galilean, Newtonian and relativistic), we are now announcing the “holico-solanthropic” revolution. The implications for Science are considerable.

De ars athletica
Sport is a catch-all term, in which it’s interesting to distinguish between play, proper to children; spectacle, proper to entertainment; performance, proper to modern-day Belerephons – or even transhumanism; competition, proper to an artificially elitist vision of the world (as opposed to the more efficient functioning of cooperation), in which all are condemned to lose (except one); and, the only truly fundamental part, the physical exercise necessary for good health.

Is science intrinsically scientistic?
Since science has varied considerably over the millennia, it’s no surprise that the scientistic drift that can accompany it has also varied. It is therefore impossible to define scientism without first characterizing science. Although scientists are almost never scientistic, we may well wonder whether science is not intrinsically scientistic. Once this doubt has been expressed, it’s time to try and remove it, or to confirm a certain “scientisticity” of science.
