Because there is liberating power in each and every truth, the one who walks in the truth in all his ways will be set free. A lie, no matter how little, gives the powers of darkness an opening for attack, but the truth chases them far away.
Johan Oscar Smith
Image
One advantage of exhibiting a hierarchy of systems in this way is that it gives us some idea of the present gaps in both theoretical and empirical knowledge. Adequate theoretical models extend up to about the fourth level, and not much beyond. Empirical knowledge is deficient at practically all levels.
