It is hard for our intelligence to exceed the severe limitations imposed by our membership in groups whose necessary purposes are hidebound and draconic, particularly as regards developing intelligence. We are hobbled by the stupefying nature and purposes of many of our contexts, which are ramifications of our connectivity methods… habits… expectations, or purposes… when these change, our real and potential intelligence changes immediately, and there are specific methods that catalyze, produce, and optimize such contexts. In learning and employing these methods we can invite our social, relational, ecological and developmental intelligence to something like its realistic potential, rather than something like the bad science fiction it tends to otherwise rapidly become.
