Why anything? It has to be. How come? Existence has no alternative? Why is that? 'Nonexistence', also called 'Nothing', cannot be. 'It' has no propert...

The 'God' of belief has been reduced to doing exactly what nature does.
June 24, 2021 at 17:55
Yes, and even just average good humans still put the 'God' of the Bible to shame, which again suggests the making up of the Biblical 'God' as wishful ...

These stimuli seem to hover somewhere in between natural existence and nonexistence yet they lean far away from nonexistence and more toward existence...

How Do We Think About The Bible From A Philosophical Point Of View? So then, the Bible's 'creative' and inventive literature gets much worse in its 'm...

Yes, but for the many Evangelical Fundamentalists many looser Christians don't take much stock in the Bible's proclamations or go into denial. The Phi...

Doesn't much matter, for either way, the ABCs of the Bible came out wrong as could be, as a polar opposite of what's been found. As for the xyzs, they...

Because Genesis is wrong, as discussed in another thread, there is no divine Inspiration to it and so it can be dismissed. As for explaining why God t...

In Genesis, God created Adam, as is, fully formed, from scratch, as intended, presumably immutable, with all the features of modern man, and so Adam's...

An Absolute, such as 'God' cannot go away or have a beginning, or it wouldn't be Fundamental and 'First'. Further, a Mind couldn't have been fundament...

Yes, not much to be gained for living at the human being level, as either TOE is just simple, as it must be at that level, and so is not all that inte...

Ah, a good clue, in what you said, plus adding to it: why the humongous amount of material in the universe, namely 2x10**76 particles or so (the '2' i...

Well, in the case of QFT (Quantum Field Theory) and the Standard Model derived from it, we rely on its physics all the time, in all our myriad electro...

One begins with the true knowing of what proposed absolutes have fallen by the wayside: Newton's proposed space and time as absolutes were given the b...
June 04, 2021 at 18:23
You are referring to a Fundamental Absolute. Either there is an Absolute, such as quantum fields (see QFT), or there is Relationism, with no intrinsic...

That doesn't matter, for 'God' cannot exist. What is Fundamental cannot have parts. Not even something very simply composite can be First as the Absol...

Particles can be long-lasting as excitations due to their unit strength/charge as energy quanta…and from there we know the rest of the story.
April 09, 2021 at 00:43
'Particles', as temporary excitations of the permanent underlying quantum fields, go through both slits because, well, as hinted, they are field quant...

This is still a Mind as being First, aka 'God'. /uploads/resized/files/c6/2kx7hz8fyq2850gp.gif

All is field. The excitations are what we call 'particles'. From them, the, born of simplicity, the complex universe. /uploads/resized/files/ah/rerfjg...

The covariant quantum fields of Quantum Field Theory are what I favor as fundamental, for not only does the standard model work, as based on them, but...

To refute 'All is Mind', one needs to show that there is substance, which I'd say includes forces/energy acting as substance, plus that Mind cannot ma...
