Dangerous Knowledge - Mathematicians and Suicide

A nice full documentary on four Mathematicians who pursue some of the greatest problems of Mathematics. The film covers the elusive problems they were chasing and their end.

Runs about 1:29 minutes long.

Georg Cantor
The ancients of KMT knew that the Infinite was Hidden - Amen. The ancients of the Harrapa Valley knew that the Supreme was Infinite and, therefore, cannot be comprehended - Saama Veda. Unfortunately for Cantor, a deeply religious man, his religion - Christianity -- insisted that the Infinite is knowable and that those who think otherwise are superstitious fools [Acts 17:22-23]. Cantor, unable to reconcile the reality of the Infinite with the error of his religion, lost his sanity and ended up in an asylum.

Ludwig Boltzmann
Boltzmann's area of expertise was physics. His research led him, as with Cantor, to the solid brick wall of man not being able to know the Unknowable. In response to this, Boltzmann came up with his theory of randomness based on what he perceived as the disorder of the atom [entrophy]. His European peers persecuted him for this. The white man, seeking to be a god unto himself, can not accept that Atom/Atum is Unknowable to him.

The sages of KMT, who laid the foundations of Boltzmann's physics, were wiser than he in that they, rather than conclude that Atum was disorder, understood that Atum [atom] is indeed perfect, not disorder, and that it is only man, in his confused state of separation from the One - Atum/Atom - who is unable to recognize the order that lies above and below the perception of disorder [that which the sages of the Harappa Valley called Maya - illusion].

Unable to deal with the rejection of his peers, Boltzman hung himself.

Kurt Godel
Godel was yet another European who became obsessed with knowing the Unknown. Godel, unlike the wiser sages of KMT, came up with his theory of incompleteness, of chaos. His fellow country men just flat out did not want to hear that. After all, one of his fellow country men, Adolph Hitler was quite busy preaching another sermon -- one that said white folks were a superior race of god-men. How could a superior race of god-men not know the Unknowable - that would be chaos -- a corruption of what KMT called Kos as in kosmos/cosmos -- which the Greeks corrupted by inserting an A and changing K to C ==> kos became kaos which became chaos.

Godel had to flee to America after being beaten by a gang of Nazis.

Alan Turing
Turing took Europe's confusion over the Unknown to a whole new level. Turing, in effect, sought to become the Unknown - the Creator. And, as pseudo-creator, he created a man in his own image -- man as a machine -- a computer.

Set, the prince of this earth, came up with a truly bizarre way to put this pseudo-creator in his place. Turing, a homosexual, was injected with female hormones. From Nebertcher was brought forth Shu and Tefnut.

A few over simplifications, but an interesting perspective. I meant to write a summary myself when I posted this but I was feeling lazy.
