What is that supposed to mean? Humans (made of atoms) and atoms have same level of intelligence?

what makes you think atoms are fundamental elements? They could be multiverses of something much smaller. I hope you're familiar with the infinite loo...

The elements at different scales.

Meaning they will show significant variance in terms of intelligence, hence the effect would be monumental, or should I say, astronomical.

Intelligence at the atomic level is much more versatile than quark levels, which is more versatile than energy levels, which is more than the spatial ...

Intelligence is subjective and influencable. My intelligence and yours aren't the same. But if two atoms or electrons showed different levels of cogni...

Yes, I know. But you said some argue otherwise. I responded to that. Simple cause-and-effect is dependent upon intelligence (cognitive due diligence)?...

That wouldn't make sense. What consciousness does a chunk of mud have? You mean sentience (reaction to stimulus)? Isn't that the argument of this post...

Interesting.

less ironic than your defense, one would proclaim.

Do we have an undisputed definition for it, though?

Sure. Epitome of humanity lies in this site.

What I meant is that the same way the eyes themselves cannot see them, without external help, consciousness itself cannot interpret (look within) itse...

deliberate or a mistake in the coding?

What if I'm alone in a galaxy with no reflective substance to see myself?

I accidentally quoted myself and now can't find anything relevant to replace it with.

Did you (check what I responded to)? It's like: — Humans can't fly because they don't have wings. — Ever been in an airplane?

That's not even a logical argument. Read the metaphor.

I see. Or perhaps it can be framed as an argument from monistic perspective.

Because my papers are part of a series, and I've already defended monism in previous papers.

Time (not the flow of it) is the phenomenon of space and matter being driven (pushed forward involuntarily) by a mysterious force. I'd have to present...

Why do we need a state?

Nature isn't a hive mind. It has no central command. Nature itself is not an entity. Nature is the collective body of scattered elements. These elemen...

Because they're connected. Every element of the universe is an image of the universe itself. Elements project the universe, the universe projects its ...

you said there is no pure chaos. From that argument, the universe will never lose control. So I asked YOU on what you conclude as the fate of the cosm...

I asked, what does cosmology say about dualism?

are you saying the universe will forever last?

to see if the basis needs change.

Continue.

Take away all laws of physics or the natural order. That's true chaos.

Yes. You see if your synthetic being goes beyond its programmed capacity or scope and does something on its own that wasn't predicted (in machine lear...

Well, you must have a basis for other arguments to circle around.

That's entropy. Any large-scale or permanent chaos would doom the universe.

Every element is crucial in its own place. But carbon was the building block of life and organic chemistry.

ummm.... Elementary biology and chemistry?

I think the main topic got sidelined here. Rather than dissection entropy, we should examine what makes carbon the heart of consciousness.

And what is your argument for that? So the universe (space) managing itself (entropy) for sustainability? Yes, my point too. But it does leave a quest...

So in true sense, nothing is unnatural or supernatural? That's what my thesis argues, though. So entropy is orderly? Isn't space part of the universe?...

cell is widely accepted as the precondition for living matter (i.e., those who have free will and mind). machines lack cells.

What is the definition of supernatural? If there is any "anomaly" to the natural law, is it unnatural? Does that make entropy or other chemical reacti...

It was never proved or observed. And one of the outcomes of consciousness is free will. But what is "will" exactly? A person in a coma or paralysis ha...

I think I've equated it with the eye's inability to see itself.

Will that cell generate consciousness?
