The 'operative' word (in) Mr. Langen's theory, "The cognitive -Theoretic - Model of a Universe" - is of course the word "cognitive", which would or WILL be the (perhaps) insurmountable fly in Mr. Langen's ointment - so to speak. Cognitive dissonance of "reality" has always been a problem for the great mass of humanity - who perpetually look for someone - physical or metaphysical to - "lead" them and provide for them - all of their needs - throughout their lives.
The notion of (individual) 'self-responsibility' - is NOT a factor in the equation of 'modern' life on earth.
Teaching self responsibility - (should) be one of MOST important aspects of life that (a) PARENT can TEACH their children in order for them to grow into positive minded human beings that are not a drain on society as a whole. The youth of today - presumably those who would be the receptors of Mr. Langen's new humanity - are largely seen as a pack of wild savages -short term oriented mobs - with no observable traits other than instant self gratification by plundering other peoples property - with NO morals, remorse or sense of wrongdoing...including murder and rape. This appears to be a global
phenomenon in virtually all "societies" and races.
In short, an argument can be made that until PARENTS EDUCATE their children in BASIC notions such as "being responsible for oneself" - that the future of humanity may indeed entropy into the exact opposite of the Darwinian vision of the future of the Homo-sapien species; which also may succumb to what John Von Neumann alluded to of runaway technology that will consume mankind from nuclear to biological catastrophes - including destruction of the global electrical energy grids.
On the POSITIVE side, one can only hope that humans en toto, WILL awaken before the lights go out.
