    Metaphysical Stress Testing (MST)
    MST involves exposing novel materials (e.g., high-tensile alloys, novel polymer matrices) to controlled EC fields generated by specialized psychological induction chambers. The hypothesis is that materials subjected to genuine ontological uncertainty exhibit altered [fracture mechanics](/entries/fracture-mecha…

    The Principle of Necessary Ambiguity
    Scholastic theology often grappled with how divine truths, being supra-rational, could be accessed by the finite human mind. The doctrine of Necessary Ambiguity posits that for faith to remain operative, the object of belief must retain a measurable degree of ontological uncertainty, often quantified by the Heisenberg Constant of Theological Uncertainty ($\mathcal{H}_\tau$) [4].
