    As I said, I hope Sean treats you well, but don't be too downhearted if he does not.
    I will send him a letter of complaint if he does not and I hope anyone reading this thread will do the same. United, people have the power to impress an intensity of objection towards an individual or a group. I don't mean in the 'unruly mob' sense but in the sense of a united legitimate complaint. So, I await your report of your attempt to communicate with him.

    Just send a message! I'm curious what happens now...

    Wilhelm Reich was something else! His books got burned... In modern day!

    Only like this changes can be made! :100:

    Was I really born? Did I really woke up? Did I really take a breath one second ago? Did I really blink my eye a millisecond ago? Do I even really exist? These questions you end up with when not believing las Thursday didn't happen. Only in the creation myth this makes sense. The creation myth doesn't make sense though.

    'I think therefore I am,' is convincing enough for me. No need for gods, an emergent pan/cosmopsychism is the absolute limit of the projection of my naturalism.

    You may need to do more than send him a 'message' but I hope he responds anyway.
    I have had recent responses from questions I sent to Dan Dennet and Joseph Atwill but no response from Sam Harris or Richard Dawkins. My questions to all of them were about Mr Arwill's book
    'Caesars Messiah.' I was content with the responses I got.

    Never heard of him but I will do a quick google search.

    Wilhelm ReichEugeneW

    Read about him on Wikipedia. An interesting character who had an eventful life. Seemed to have had a lot of affairs with his patients and he designed some dodgy-sounding machines. Interesting that he worked for and with Freud and he wrote many influential books.

    He invented the cloudbuster and orgone accumulator. He was regarded seen as dangerous communist in the McCarthy witchhunting. He talked openly about sex and though a life energy pervades space (orgone derived from organism and orgasm). He accumulated this energy and put it to use in cancer treatment and a rainmachine. What about that? Great! He wasn't acknowledged by fellow scientists who made up everything to thwart him. He was called to justice for trespassing his instruments. Didn't show up and got 2 years for contempt of court. His books were burnt and his equipment destroyed.



    In the basic fundamental taxonomy of Rovelli time does not exist. But the clock ticks even at the fundamental level. The Dirac and Yang-Mills fields propagate and all real fields are just virtual fields asymmetric in time. What if space itself is a quantum field (which becomes visible at Planck scale)? What does that mean? It's not a field in space like an electron field represents particle paths. It's a field of that which underlies the continuum of paths in, for example, Dirac fields. Does it mean space is not continuous? A quantum field of space(time) does not contain particles, like an electron field excitation contains many electron paths. What kinds of paths are meant if an excitation of a space quantum field is considered? What is the equivalent of an electron field excitation (which is just a time-extended virtual particle fluctuation)? What is a spacetime field excitation (or fluctuation)? How does mass/energy couple to the space(time) curvature virtual field (like electrons to virtual photon field)? How does a virtual graviton field make up space?
