That is the point. For those who use the term to explain the outside force thanks governs everything it exactly equivalent, in every way that you desc...
This is one way to look at it. However, those who appeal to Laws of Nature use it as a placeholder for the exact same theme as God, omniscience, omnip...
in the manner that the metaphysical concept is used, Laws of Nature, is usually used as a standalone concept as the first and constant force guiding e...
As you defined God, it is exactly equivalent to the Laws of Nature, both of which are concepts and beliefs with no proof, and are used in an equivalen...
Fascism is far from productive. Hitler borrowed prodigiously from Western bankers who were financing him as a bulwark against the Soviet Union. By 193...
Would you say the same of those who appeal to the Laws of Nature. Agnosticism, as far as I can tell, is equivalent to doubt. Should there be equivalen...
If you are saying that there are outside forces that are entirely deciding our direction in life (i.e.we have no say in what the direction we would li...
You could try to take up an art as a hobby. Personally, I enjoy Tai Chi, dancing, singing, piano playing and drawing. You'll find lots of new and wond...
So you are referring to the Laws of Nature? I have no idea how one does this. I believe what you are saying is that you disagree with a point of view ...
In this article Shelter juxtaposes the two concepts. It is inevitable. Science ultimately does the same thing (i.e. juxtaposes neurons and human consc...
I provided you with a link of an actual experiment. No, morphic resonance is Consciousness as are neurons. No matter what sleight of hand or magic is ...
I provided you with a link which described such a test for morphic resonance fields. One can embrace morphic resonance fields or not , but if rejected...
Conduits do not create or interpret information. They are simply conduits. Nothing more. You have defined neurons perfectly. They are rivers of energy...
One simply cannot doubt ones own experiences. Experiences (memory) defines being. That is literally who we are as we create, evolve, and they exist th...

Nope, and apparently you don't want to try to. Next time you decide to try to make little neurons into humans, try to do it without human-like sensibi...

Still no answer to my question. I think I know why. If you analyze my question it is all right there. As I've read all the advanced, super-scientific,...
Oh gee. We are making it difficult aren't we? I know all about habituation and how science classes are designed to indoctrinate and create habituatual...
Fine. Then how about you describing what neurons can do according to your advanced science class? Please try to be complete as possible because you ar...
I think we were discussing hand waving, indoctrination, and habits. Now in my science class they discussed the very mysterious activities of little ne...
Would you care to describe all of the things that neurons can do in so far as human beings are concerned? I would suppose your neurons will be speakin...
Observe how you yourself describe neurons. It's quite interesting how anthropomorphic your descriptions become. You don't realize it because of habit....
The hand waving happens when science turns neurons into little humans. Quite laughable, yet people believe it out of habit. This is the purpose of sci...
Thank you for the reference. Very interesting. For me, instincts are nothing more than habits that continue through duration. They may be shared our v...
Habit is a learned, repetitive, constantly evolving behavior of Consciousness that assists in the continued process/cycle of creating, experimenting, ...
Casinos win because of habits in the universe, and they set the payoffs accordingly. Habits of non-living matter and habits of humans. Science had no ...
No, Consciousness does which is precisely what it is doing all of the time as a definition of life. I do it all of the time when I'm studying any of t...
Science is observation, measurements, and some sort of approximate prediction of lifeless matter. That is it. It cannot describe the nature of nature ...
I also viewed the same video quite some time ago. No great revelations other than they were quite polite to each other. But the point you made here wa...
