Spinoza said neither God nor humans have free will. But they both have will, which is the desires of the thinking subject. The difference between God ...
For Spinoza the soul creates consciousness in us. We are parallel to matter on one side and the Intellect (i.e.God). Matter is only conscious in that ...
Sure. (Remember I'm coming at this as a philospher). Pi specifies a a certain precision between the numbers 3 and 4. When it comes to a segment, the p...

The Zeno effect and the anti-Zeno effect refer to how observation changes eternal states. The ancient Arrow paradox is just used to illustrated the ef...
Zeno's entire concern briefly demonstrated: To go from A to B you have to go half that distance, since the distance is distance as space. Half of AB i...
You are making a claim about reality (i.e. it's made of events of information). Aristotle slumped into this when he said parts are potential. What exi...
For Spinoza a rock is God but God is not a rock. God has intellect and consciousness (will) but no free will because Spinoza doesn't believe in free w...
There is no true middle ground between physicalism and idealism. You say the nature of reality is mental and matter is the power to inform. I can not ...

It's FALSE that motion through a point is the same as resting in a fixed point. There is energy that pushes right through. Imagine an arrow being push...

I don't think you solved Zeno's paradox because you're putting the infinite quantity into philosophically blurry box and focusing just on finite resul...
Continua based constructions are based on an uncountable infinite amount being manipulate to a finite result. That is new. That's exactly what Newton ...
If you have a two foot segment and make it into a circle, suddenly it's pi/r/squared instead of two feet. Hmm. It seems that we must "round to the fin...
Pi is a finite number because it's inbetween 3 and 4. But if the length of a circumference is multiplied by pi than you have a length with space corre...
