Thus no matter the severity of natural change such as fire, flood or earthquake, the states following will regenerate themselves in a same or similar condition. In terms of Finite Determination, the affects, results and products of change, that give meaning, purpose and consequence are already pre-existent, as what they already are. All natural change is the contribution to maintaining these conditions and is Conservative.
Progressive Determination means that reason, purpose and consequence is only derived from entities that produce or have potential to produce, what is considered of consequence to the individual or the larger society. Progressive Determination explains change that has consequence as activity and behavior that increases value. States and entities that are produced by human effort and energy, possess reason, meaning and purpose for their existence, by the results and products they produce. The axe, car, train and spoon all produce results and products which explain the reason, purpose and the value of their existence. Because material resource is necessary to improved states, and because the natural world
does not progress or produce
Excess and Profit,
it is considered to have no meaning or consequence in and of itself, and thus it can be transformed or destroyed at will, and leave the pre-existent state in such a condition that it may never regenerate to its former state.
From the concepts of Finite and Existent Determination two interpretations result as types of value and consequence termed
Definitive and
Olamic Value.
Definitive Value descends from Progressive and Olamic from Existent Determination.
Definitive Value identifies and tends to define a quality, state or entity in terms of a specific and singular definition. Definitive Value explains the reason, purpose, meaning and consequence of any given state or entity in terms of relationships to results
& products, as contributive resource, vehicles for, or actual qualities & conditions.
