The Indeterminacy of Scientific Theories and the End of Deterministic Ideas

Abstract

For the first time in human history, a strategy operationalized in the social system to reward the growth in energy consumption was implemented. This fundamentally questions our urge to expand and thus our self-image. A deterministic worldview based on steering and control was established. We show that this deterministic worldview undermines the ability to be touched and thus our basic moral orientation. A “logic of touch in indeterminacy” is being developed, which is based on a new, logical–physical model of neurobiology and introduces this touchability as a conceptual core element. The proposed new methodology is itself based on simplicity and “scientific touchability.” For this purpose, our own research results were reassessed, and appropriate options for action are presented.
