Summary
Nenad Stefanović: The survival of man and the reduction of the world
This writing presents a reflection on human destiny and tries to solve the secret of survival, observing man within the framework of the world he is surrounded by. For a change, in relation to the usual approach, which postulates the first statements as axiomatic, deducing the whole system further, an inductive approach is used here, which starts from more visible and transparent categories, which try to find the cause in what is not seen, or less visible, with an attempt to find the explanation itself. This is a visible effort to put all that is unnecessary in parentheses in the process of inductive reduction and reducing everything to what remains at the bottom as essential, after cleaning from methodologically unnecessary residue, but at the same time from the attempt to explain the invisible visible, which would make the basic logical error of moving in a circle. Thus, what needs to be explained and its cause is explained, not by what meaningfully precedes it, but what meaningfully follows it. With this approach, which shows effort, to be logically based, the causes of what is visible in man's behavior are found in his uterine condition and the ontological change that introduces him to the world, with, in all likelihood, already established apriorism and predestined choices in crucial matters, which he is seemingly placed before, although it turns out that the choice is already pre-faked according to his measure, which he readily carries with him from birth, without reflecting on the opposite of the choice, as obviously unfavorable for his own survival.
