Mind is essence of any being with the ability to experience, decide, and act.
January 07, 2018 at 20:19
I have had visions of other beings, such as Devils, Angels, and deceased people. They can read my mind and have control over my thoughts and feelings....
January 07, 2018 at 19:51
I had several paranormal experiences.
January 07, 2018 at 19:08
Well, the electron is where that is more probable. The probability drop down exponentially far from body. So body in macroscopic level is where it is ...
January 07, 2018 at 18:57
So you are saying that an atemporal God cannot communicate?
January 07, 2018 at 18:41
Yes, that is one part of story. But what does happen for their free will?
January 07, 2018 at 18:35
That is correct. You have a Schrodinger equation which gives the evolution of the probability function. The probability function tells you where body ...
January 07, 2018 at 18:29
The only equations defining particle movements are the QM equations. They relate only to the evolutionary path of electrons and are probabilistic (ind...

Have you read OP? I explain the problem there so I cannot help it unless you tell me what part you don't understand.

January 07, 2018 at 18:18
That is true. Brain and body however are material and obey laws of nature. The problem according to OP is consciousness.
January 07, 2018 at 18:14
In case of quantum mechanic, anomaly in black radiation comes first and then the anomaly was resolved by Plank. You can read about it in here. The sam...

Moreover there is another problem related to omniscient being who has free will. It is described in here.
January 07, 2018 at 13:06
Either they are free to do the opposite or they are not free. There is no blame in both cases.
January 07, 2018 at 13:04
That is one of the example if they could make firm decision then they could do the opposite.
January 07, 2018 at 12:57
The physicist call it standard model in which all equations related to particles movement can be derived from.
January 07, 2018 at 12:52
The options and the conscious decision are all which exist in the moment of decision.
January 07, 2018 at 12:48
I came across this which of course apply to temporal God, Jesus. What is the issue related to atemporal God?
January 07, 2018 at 12:46
There are claim of prophecy in the past and even now.
January 07, 2018 at 12:42
Interesting.
January 07, 2018 at 12:41
No, His knowledge of our decision is not similar to our reflection of past events. He can tell us what we will do in future.
January 07, 2018 at 12:40
In our universe. Laws of nature dictate that at the moment my hand should move and type specific word for example. I am consciously aware of situation...
January 06, 2018 at 20:04
This is a physicist interpretation of reality which seems coherent if there was no consciousness. We are dealing with a improbable situation when ther...
January 06, 2018 at 19:56
No, the laws of nature just explain how simple matter evolves and reacts to a stimuli.
January 06, 2018 at 19:17
Interesting religion but impossible, unless you have a God who knows everything.
January 06, 2018 at 19:05
Don't we exist when we are asleep and don't feel time?
January 05, 2018 at 20:00
There is a gap here:
January 05, 2018 at 19:25
What attach us to reality?
January 05, 2018 at 13:48
Why there is only one "I"?
January 05, 2018 at 13:45
What is subconscious awareness? You meant subconscious mind?
January 05, 2018 at 13:43
Thank you very much for your contribution.
January 05, 2018 at 13:03
Thanks for the comment.
January 05, 2018 at 13:00
thanks for the reference.
January 05, 2018 at 13:00
Well, can I say that imagination is one of duty of conscious mind? What do you mean with the universal in here? We sometimes misunderstand the message...
January 05, 2018 at 12:55
Interesting.
January 04, 2018 at 15:44
Time is real. I have an argument in favor of it in here.
January 04, 2018 at 15:39
So you are thinking that imagination is a conscious activity whereas thinking is a conscious activity?
January 04, 2018 at 15:36
I think we could both agree on the fact that we need a context when we think and discuss a problem. The context can be defined clearly and that is the...
January 04, 2018 at 15:35
According to scientific research it is both. You can read more about it in here. I however don't agree with them. To me imagination is duty of conscio...
January 04, 2018 at 15:25
That is no true. Sometimes an answer to a question just pop into our conscious mind when you are thinking of something else. Moreover, thought as I ar...
January 04, 2018 at 12:52
Time in my opinion is real and allows change. I have a thread on this in here.
January 04, 2018 at 12:48
Beginning: the point in time at which something begins. To define the beginning of time you need time which is circular. You can look at the problem t...
January 04, 2018 at 12:43
So you are relating time to consciousness?
January 04, 2018 at 12:35
Well, I think thought is a unconscious activity because we cannot consciously and collectively deal with all knowledge we accumulated and memorized in...
January 04, 2018 at 12:32
What if the second decision is also unconscious?
January 04, 2018 at 12:22
This is difficult to explain but I give it a shoot. What I am trying to say is that there is no randomness in the whole if determinism is true. Determ...
January 03, 2018 at 17:51
So compatibilists don't care about determinism? Moreover what is the definition of will?
January 03, 2018 at 14:17
Thanks for the reference.
January 03, 2018 at 14:01
That just means that randomness is not globally allowed. You still can have local randomness.
January 03, 2018 at 13:47
Yes.
