What is a logical extension?
It is a series of events that are extrapolated, extended to a state of being further in time.
This allows someone to predict the future of the series of events, how it will turn out, how it will affect, and how events influence the environment the events causing further affects.
When watching a ball roll down the hill, the future position of the ball might be extrapolated. This is done by knowing simple things about general principles of how things work in the shadow of reality that you occupy. The ball will continue to roll down the hill, gravity will see to that, it can not do otherwise. Then by watching the ball roll you can gauge how fast the ball is rolling, if the rolling is getting faster or not, and even how heavy the ball might be. Experience, we’ve all seen balls rolling; weights, size, and construction may have varied, but by doing so allows extrapolation using that knowledge. By applying logic across time the extension of time informs and warns of events to come. Is that a heavy ball of reality rolling toward you or do you lack the logic to see it’s path?
There is a war going on.
Does your shadow of reality look into it? Do you even care of it’s existence?
This is not the first time war has been there, in that place. Can we use a Logical Extension to say that it will not be the last time war will touch there?
Can we perhaps build a wall to protect it?
Past experience shows that walls don’t work. Walls built to keep people out or keep people in did neither, although there has been a better success at keeping people in than out.
Can we force the fighters to find peace? Fighters only find peace in the grave, otherwise they are not fighters. This means that we must change fighters to peaceful people. That has never been done with long term success. Sheep attract wolves, or tigers, or another predators eventually. Oppressors will reach control eventually among the compliant. That is a Logical Extension. If we change all the people to peaceful natures within the Oppressors will come from without. If a wall around us to keep others away will not be successful how do we protect the peace? With the fighters that are wished to peace, unable to fight. A better method is to build a wall around the war, confining the war to itself till the fires burn out the last bit of the hate that caused the beginning. Almost sounds like genocide, but self induced. But even that will not end the hate that causes War. Unless there is only one, there will to continue to be War.
