Tod Desmond's video: Leo Strauss Natural Right and History: E Pluribus Unus Mundus 5

In this fifth instalment of the E Pluribus Unus Mundus series of videos I examine excerpts from Leo Strauss' Natural Right and History. According to Strauss, “natural right in its classic form is connected with a teleological view of the universe.” A teleological view of the universe sees it as intelligently designed to achieve an ultimate purpose, goal, or end (the Greek word for which is telos). That view, says Strauss, would seem "to have been destroyed by modern natural science." This fact subjects the defenders of natural right theory (which is based on St. Thomas Aquinas' Natural Law theory) to “a fundamental, typically modern, dualism of a nonteleolgial natural science and a teleological science of man.” As a result, “the fundamental dilemma, in whose grip we are, is caused by the victory of modern natural science. An adequate solution to the problem of natural right cannot be found before this basic problem has been solved.” I argue that the solution to the problem of natural right is solved by fusing Leonard Susskind's holographic string theory with Carl Jung's archetypal psychology, which reinvents the classic, teleological, Platonic-Aristotelian cosmology within which Aquinas developed Natural Law theory, within which the theory of natural rights emerged, and in which it makes sense. The overall goal of this series is to unite the Left and Right of the United States of America by updating the Constitution with two amendments. First, add an amendment to serve as a Preface to the Preamble explaining why We the People now identify each individual self with the central singularity and surrounding horizon of the cosmos. Second, add a fourth branch of government dedicated to helping the other three branches harmonize their decision-making processes with this central organizing principle, Psyche = Singularity, specifically by creating alternative futures scenarios aimed at enabling our Posterity to assimilate it ever more perfectly. This entire series of papers is based on point-for-point parallels between Carl Jung’s archetypal psychology (including his out-of-body, near-death experience of the cosmic horizon) and Stanford physicist Leonard Susskind’s string theory of holographic information conservation at the event horizons of black holes and the cosmic horizon of the universe, which I examine at length in my book Psyche and Singularity: Jungian Psychology and Holographic String Theory.
