#properties

The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no good, nothing but blind, pitiless indifference. ↗

Genes that underlie the capacity to receive, use and transmit information are the evolving properties. ↗

Each of us can manifest the properties of a field of consciousness that transcends space, time, and linear causality. ↗

The new formula in physics describes humans as paradoxical beings who have two complementary aspects: They can show properties of Newtonian objects and also infinite fields of consciousness. ↗

Elements which are similar as regards their chemical properties have atomic weights which are either of nearly the same value (eg. Pt, Ir, Os) or which increase regularly (eg. K, Ru, Cs). ↗

The elements, if arranged according to their atomic weights, exhibit an apparent periodicity of properties. ↗

Typically, an historic site is considered by the National Park Service to contain a single historical feature, while generally a National Historic Park extends beyond single properties or buildings. ↗

We have altered the physical, chemical and biological properties of the planet on a geological scale. We have left no part of the globe untouched. ↗

I also assume that they are not simply the physical properties of things as now conceived by physical science. Instead, they are ecological, in the sense that they are properties of the environment relative to an animal. ↗

Today we try to identify a gene and then study its properties. ↗
