Following the method of Euclid's "Elements", 36 Definitions, a single Axiom, and 3 Postulates are introduced. The single Axiom can be obtained from 3 fundamental categories of existence, stated in current Physics. The combination of these categories yields a fundamental substance and a single Axiom. The Absolute is physical substance whose nature, structure, function and relevance are examined and substantiated by philosophical means and relevant scientific and other literature. Man is but an energy-dissipating 'machine' whose natural morality has long been corrupted by cultural evolution, the worst byproduct of which has been Evil. The absurdity of Evil is evident from the cruel lessons of History. Man's future is the colonization of outer space, but Man must not export Evil and contaminate the Cosmos thereby. Man ought to mature into Cosmic Man and advance into the Cosmic Era by returning to childlike innocence in harmony with Nature.
