Some of us are programmed to want to master many programs. Some get involved with the “Fish Programs” and avail themselves of various items and theories that humans have programmed to catch fish. They may go from the “Catch bluegills in the pond” programs to “Catch bass in the stream” programs to “Dry fly fishing for brook trout” programs to “Sailfish catching in the ocean” programs.
Our lives record the programs in which we were interested. At Judgment, we may become aware of all those programs in which we were interested, and how much we elevated them above obeying The Programmer and loving our neighbor.
Most human programs are involved with satisfying basic needs. There are programs for every kind of farming, mineral extraction, transforming various plant and mineral programs into things that human programs need (manufacturing), and medical programs for every part of the body program. There is a program for every kind of occupation.
There are programs for every kind of restaurant. Underlying the thinking of many restaurateurs is the thought, “If I program my restaurant properly, I may be able to turn my diner/coffee shop/pizza shop/hot dog shop/steakhouse/etc. into a chain of restaurants.” This requires the mastery of more complex programs, including familiarization with the various personnel and finance programs.
When lots of people are creating programs, they may hurt each other. So, political programs are written to ensure that people in the restaurant programs, for instance, will not be able to burn down their competitors’ outlets.
Beyond the programs for survival and personal gain, then, there are programs for control. When these programs take form, they are called “governments”. Each government agency is a program to control those involved with a sort of program, as the Dept. of Agriculture controls farmers, ranchers, and producers of protein programs.
As efficiencies increase, there are fewer people involved in any given programs. The Wal-Mart Program, for instance, has eliminated hundreds of thousands of smaller, less efficient retail programs. Large banking programs eliminate smaller, less efficient banking programs just as larger manufacturers have programs that eliminate smaller, more error-prone production programs.
