Referring to internal/external distinction as "dualism" makes potential point of confusion with substance/property dualism. It’s unclear if you yourse...
1. chance that A just so happens to exist and has property B 2. chance that X just so happens to exist and has property Y which is to create A that ha...
Then it must have tuned itself while it was beyond space and time. Of course it’s possible, you should know, it’s simply a special kind of universe. W...
It’s fascinating that you apply logic reasonably well, except to your own statements The universe must be very special fine-tuner to tune itself, to b...
If you look at equations of motion it is obvious there were never any particles. I find it dubious to talk about 13 types of “meta-fields” when they a...
The mystery you are talking about is best captured by the concept of "self", supposed to explain what is it exactly that defines spatial boundaries an...
Terrible. This whole discussion, just like the opening question, is without any significant point, awfully vague and undirected, it is impossible to s...
Yes qualia, how things appear. The question is where does the brain shop for colors to paint our mental picture. To be clear I consider objects of the...
Yes, we are talking about colors as objects of cognition. The question is whether a). we actually see colors (colors exist), or b). we only think we s...
Let me rephrase. Electromagnetic waves are not colors. These waves are converted to electrical impulses in the eye before going into the brain. But el...
Is there any other picture of the brain where sensory visual input is not first encored into serial electric signal in the eye before it even reaches ...
Ugghhh. Let me try. Imagine a metaphor with a computer, it is running a program that paints the whole screen yellow. We turn off the monitor and ask d...
Meta-time has existed as long as meta-universe. Meta-time goes both forward and backward at the same time, so it doesn’t go anywhere and thus it is al...
Monkey and anti-monkey cancel each other in chaotic arrangement before they can manage to materialize. Something materializes only through windows of ...
His nothing are laws of quantum physics and quantum vacuum. That is not nothing, it’s lame attempt at explanation that does not explain. I guess you c...
Every addition and subtraction equation directly maps to the real physical world. If you look at it from that perspective it would be really strange e...
Yes, potential, which is abstract concept, it is not really a.thing, so it is no-thing. I'm not talking about quantum vacuum, virtual particles, or an...
I mean in its literal or physical sense. There is an aspect of testable reality there. Namely, the reason why things are mostly neutrally charged. Als...
And now to mathematically prove how something comes out of nothing! 0 = -x + x This means two things, and it is actually not quite “something comes ou...
Truth is logical, semantical and mathematical, while empirical observations only have statistical certainty. Just because we have not seen it doesn’t ...
We were talking about the beginning, your statement is about ending. And in the meantime dumb mechanical systems tend to aggregate into things like th...
Because there is no-one to do the fine tuning? Hmm. Take that logic and apply it directly to the universe. I did not ask about any environment, but go...
No, with god you are just making extra step and renaming mystery to "why is god fine-tuned". Why is god fine-tuned? You are not addressing the point. ...
I think we can all agree that when you have eliminated all which is impossible, then whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. So, here...
Yes, but the choice of “brute fact” is still just an assumption. So you have a choice to postulate magical fine-tuned universe, just like we observe, ...
Perhaps, but not in English language, at least. It is not because I refuse to think “out of the box”, it is because the time concept is one of the fun...
I agree, keep that logic in mind... To exist out of substance is to consist of nothing. -- meaning: it does not exist To exist out of time is to exist...
By the way, if god exist out of time and space, practically existing nowhere and never, so is it then actually made of something or it follows it is r...
Intelligent about what? How can it know anything if there is nothing to know? So instead of asking where did the universe come from, the question beco...
Yes, physical, it means it can not be simulated, just like you can not produce magnetic attraction by simulating bar magnet, just like you can not pro...
It confirms what I said - you can not claim to be panpsychist without postulating there is sentience present within universe existing as additional fu...
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galen_Strawson Strawson has argued that what he calls "realistic physicalism" entails panpsychism. He writes that "as ...
That sounds like emergentism. In any case you can not claim to be panpsychist without postulating there is sentience present within universe existing ...
I would think by definition there can not possibly exist anything more inexplicable and unexplained than god itself. Every property of god is maximall...
In every your argument I can substitute the word “god” with “universe”, and vice versa. And neither god nor universe as the first axiom explain anythi...
Universe is uncaused cause, it existed before time. And although there are reasons to call the universe intelligent and equate it with god, to take th...
No, panpsychism claims everything is conscious because it is a fundamental physical property, additional to electromagnetism and gravity, Panpsychist ...
