Who is Nature?

I had no option...

You might have heard of the term “natural selection”. — apokrisis

Never heard of it. I mean, can you give an example? Who is selecting?

The actuality of substantial being arises out of formal constraint on material uncertainty. — apokrisis

Can you give an example of a formal constraint on material uncertainty in the animal kingdom?

The 26 letters, when written on a piece of paper, contain about the same entropy. This means that their information content is expressed by the same number. Nevertheless, when combined in a book they contain different information eventhough their Shannon entropy and physical entropy are the same.

Never having the option not to option is not just. One needs to have this option. Not to option is not an option is not an option is not an option is a human right. It's not an option.

Surely if a being is omnipresent, then it must be both inside and outside of the perceiver, and the perceiver should be able to feel what is inside the perceiver, if unable to see the omnipresent hidden inside the perceiver, and surely what is outside of the perceiver must be seen and perceived? — Corvus

You took the words right out of my mouth...(it must have been while we were ki..) ☺

Now that I think of it, what about the earth, the moon, and the sun itself viewed as one giant timepiece? — TheMadFool

Nice idea. It always gives you the right time when we look at it from far away. Maybe we should gauge all atomic hours wrt to that giant clock.

I have heard about waterclocks in ancient Greece.

You do commit murder. That's wrong. You destroy gods creation. That doesn't mean though that it should stop you.

I saw a movie, starring Robert Redford, in which the suicide rate sky rocketed after he discovered a realm of being after death.

because the letters complex also contains the letter 'Λ' — Alkis Piskas

It was the first one I noticed. Before I read it stands for Animus Mundi... :smile:

Perhaps I should give an analogy: — Derrick Huestis

Analogies don't work wrt to gods. They can be timefull and timeless at the same time.

Don't waste your time... — TheMadFool

Good advice. I'll write it on my wall. For when I wake up.

"Popper, the greatest philosopher of science of the 20th Century"

:lol:

Can a God who encompasses all time be timeless? Or encompass all change and be changeless? — Derrick Huestis

They can. But you can't imagine because you are bound.

That you think you are is not the same as you are. — TheMadFool

I have to think about this one...

Of one thing we can be certain - minds. We can't disprove that there are no minds for to attempt to do so requires a mind, kinda like shooting oneself in the foot. — TheMadFool

I'm sure now: minds don't exist. Disproving a mind doesn't require a mind.

We're on the same page. Nothing to discuss. — TheMadFool

I think I'm a few pages ahead...

Sorry, I didn't catch your drift. Can you expand and elaborate. Thanks. — TheMadFool

Drift? What does that mean? The word computer didnt exist but who says no one computed?

You mean to say that the word "computer" existed in Babylonian/Egyptian times? I don't think so. — TheMadFool

Indeed. "Think"

The meaning is the use. — Banno

Except when you mean to use it or the meaning is not to use it.

contradicting yourself — TheMadFool

? The word computer has more than 1 meaning.

Incorrect — Noble Dust

Right! It was me who is mixed up. Just woke up. My humble apologies...

Who?.. — Noble Dust

TheMadFool and Arcturus.

Only for outsiders thinking takes place in the brain. For the one who perceives the thinking it takes place in another realm.

Nice Tintin avatar, btw. And I can't help but ask... "Arcturus" wouldn't be a reference to "A Voyage To Arcturus" by David Lindsay, right?
2mReply — Noble Dust

You got them mixed up.

The omniabsent God"! Even if taken as a joke, it says really a lot, doesn't it? — Alkis Piskas

What does it say? That He is just absent and lets us go our way?

people have a word like computer back in the old days — TheMadFool

What are the days? Before the computers there were computers.
