Pure Mathematics is the Operating System of Math.
Applied Mathematics are the Application Programs of the mathematics world.
There is only one operating system. There are millions of application programs.
Pure Money is the operating system.
Applied Money is all the application programs that use the Pure Money operating system.
Apple computer OSX is an operating system.
Application programs are all those things that use the operating system as a tool to do something.
I am studying this philosophy of money by Georg Simmel
I found it on a google search for "pure money". On page 210 he talks about pure money. On page 212 he talks about the unlimited possibilities for its use.
Just like Pure Science. and Applied Science.
The difference between pure money and pure science is that pure sciences based on the physical world. Pure money is based on a conceptual world. Concepts created by those that wold benefit most from the money. He says that pure money is not really therefore pure but the best shot at the idea that someone took and the idea is going through an iterative improvement process as we move closer to a better conception.
Pure Religion and Applied Religion????
There is no page in Wikipedia for the terms "Pure Religion" and "Applied Religion"
Hmmmmmm……..
Wikipedia does have an entry for "One True Faith"
There is an entry for Applied Economics in Wikipedia but none for Pure Economics. Not that Wikipedia is a comprehensive authority on everything, just the popular stuff. Probably an entry on Pure Economics by another name. However, I believe that any entry under Pure Economics would be like an entry under Pure Religion. Just different Economic Schools of Thought. Schools like science used to have when the world was flat and we were the center of the universe.
One true faith does not obviously divide into unlimited possibilities for its use because by definition One True Faith is a restricted operating system. Restricted to the applications that it dictates which I suppose would be called "One True Application" Otherwise called "My way or no way".
But that is faith. Not science. Or is that Religion? In any event it is not Purity of Thought like science or math dictated by the natural world applied to all the applications of that purity of thought in the natural world. Like money it is a conceptual construct of our minds, not one created for us by a Creator like the physical world.
