Hate is not the opposite of love, but indifference.

The quantum information passing between Alice and Bob depends on what vacuum contextualizes information (data) their brains "contain" If A can collapse Psi and B can collapse psi, then are there two distinct random processes by which wavefunction collapse is effected rather than a single one and is this distinct from wave function collapse base upon sudden opening up of a potential avenue of obtaining knowledge about the state of the system?

Something became me. I did not come from nothing (provided that I am something), and so what ever became me can do so again, according to the solipsistic logic of the anthropic cosmological principle.

Genetic over determination of amino acids and the predetermination of chemical self organization.

For example arginine and isoleucine

This enables the accumulation of a series of so-called silent mutation and builds up a great amount of genetic complexity potential which can be exploited later in light of further mutation.

There is a creative side to error correction in genetic base pair sequencing which is ordinarily thought of as a critical process.

Accumulation of context for correctly spelled out kinetic base pairs sequences provides the basis for future error correction. This is a hypothesis concerning the deeper aspects of the error correction

Concerning a scientist's view on the rediscovery of Zipf's Law: "The paper's co-authors include biophysicists David Schwab of Princeton and Pankaj Mehta of Boston University. "I don't think any one of us would have made this insight alone," Nemenman says. "We were trying to solve an unrelated problem when we hit upon it. It was serendipity and the combination of all our varied experience and knowledge.""

This goes against Ayn Rand's dogmatic assertion that no significant discovery was ever made by a group or collective.

Facebook has taught me one thing, if it has taught me anything, namely that great intelligence and wisdom do not necessarily coincide. Humility makes on artificially wise as pride renders one artificially stupid.

There is a scale of the processing and integration of quantum information represented by the quantum decoherence limit, which applies to the maximum quantity of information that may traverse the vacuum via quantum teleportation alone. Does this quantum

teleportation bottleneck plan important role in the separatenesd of conscious minds?

An empirically based decoherence theory proves that there is more to the universe than just quantum information.

"I wouldn't describe myself as lacking in confidence, but I would just say that - the ghosts you chase you never catch." – John Malkovich Sam, is there really only one consciousness and each brain merely

filters, structures and resonantly tunes to this consciousness in a different way?

Paradoxically, alterity is the "image" in which each of us is made, and so the appropriate metaphydical ground for our ethical system must be a kind of "polysolipsism". To refer to alterity as an "image" is to invoke a kind of "transcendental metaphor".

The intersubjective realm is merely an arena of constructive and

destructive interference of multiple mental frequencies, but we should hear distinguish between carrier frequencies and frequency envelopes. Evangelical atheists enjoy a concept of scientific progress which is modeled in terms of nature, the asymptote, approached closer and closee by an ever more gently arcing curve. But this model is disproven by the marked tendency for scientific ignorance to grow at a rate that

acceleratingly outpaces the accumulation of scientific knowledge. And this is fundamentally owing to the necessary structure of scientific revolutions, as first compellingly demonstrated by Thomas Kuhn. In deep philosophical discussions of broad hypothetical nature, it is common to compare and contrast hypothetical cases which we could never determine the difference between, for example, what if God never existed, what if this epic historical event to which we owe most of our cultural identity never happened, and so on.

Human beings are free to the extent that they can replace one set of behavioral determinisms with another set.

As Fritjof Capra indicated in his book the turning point visual metaphors fail us when it comes to trying to understand quantum mechanics in intuitive way. Quine the analytic synthetic distinction, Whorf hypothesis. If the domain of the unknown with respect to scientific investigation was a finite, determinate space to be cumulatively and progressively filled in with correct theories and facts, then the notion of a theory of everything would be a coherent one. But this is the not the case and the future is not indeed on a trajectory conceivable to the present.

After a paradigm shift occurs, not only do facts become obsolete, but also questions, even fundamental ones.

Do we have a concept of a metaphor or only a metaphor for a metaphor? The question frequently arises why ufo's study more less began in the 1940's in the American southwest around and near military and nuclear installations seems to be perhaps due to the unique neutrino emission signature of an operating nuclear reactor that would be easily deductible in deep space with detector technology only a little bit more advanced then what we possess today.

to body and life; that it may give the earth its meaning, a human meaning! May your spirit and your virtue serve the meaning of the earth. . . . Man and man's earth are still unexhausted and undiscovered.— Nietzsche

"This epigraph is chosen quite deliberately. I run the risk of its seeming to lend itself to a certain Christian, idealist, and human is a tone, a tone in which it is easy to recognize those well-meaning virtues and values that have loosed upon the world all the things that have driven the humanity of our century to despair over itself, where these values are both blind to and complicit in this letting loose. In his own way, Nietzsche himself would have undoubtedly participated in this dubious, moralizing piety. At any rate, the word "meaning" rarely appears in his work, and still more rarely in any positive sense. One would do well, therefore, not to give any hasty interpretations of it here. The above excerpt appeals to a "human meaning," but it does so by affirming that the human (l'homme) remains to be discovered. .In order for the human to be discovered, and in order for the phrase "human meaning" to acquire some meaning, everything that has ever laid claim to the truth about the nature, essence, or end of "man" must be undone, "Jean-Luc Nancy, "Being Singular Plural"

In the unlimited fullness of multidimensional time, once the little knobs on the cosmological radio receiver are tweaked to juuuust the right

frequency, one's "signal" is pulled into one's idiosyncratically unique and tiny corner of the infinite multiverse, which is to say "the Universe". I like to think in terms of organism and systems-based analogies for political power in multi-level society. Game theory is also a good framework in which to think about political power and how it inflects within and across those levels. More on that later. For something a little more concrete in response, let me say that, as horrible as US Foreign policy appears to the Chomskian far left, I believe that, had the great might of the United States been in the hands of any other nation, culture or people, it would have undoubtedly been applied with less

self-imposed restraint and greater recklessness . . . with all that this entails. I acknowledge that there shall always be decisions that will have to be made at a level "above my pay grade" and that I will always have to maintain a certain level of trust in those above me. Deconstructive thinking is good...up to a point. As language has evolved over the

centuries so have basic concepts and concept maps and networks. These changes are subtle and don't fit within any one generation's

sociolinguistic concept map, but are distributed over a higher linguistic dimension - time. Societal and political self-organization therefore exhibits a significant amount of "causal supervenience".

Especially the discovery that we all reside within an ancestor simulation of a billion year old galactic civilization... a kind of crypto "City and the Stars"... "Thinking inside the box" is not exactly a metaphor in this

(11)

This comes from a consideration of the presumed Gaussian distribution of extraterrestrial civilization ages in the galaxy being tied to the average age of the civilization parent star and then also taking into account

where a merely five or six thousand year old civilization would fit on that normal distribution curve.... a curve with a centroid of perhaps a billion or more years!

This represents a rather peculiar, but I think valid application of the anthropic principle to the question: "are you living within a computer simulation?" :p

That is true, but a knee-jerk rejection of dualism is itself a variety of box, especially when quantum mechanics all by itself exhibits so many dualities: wave-particle. real - virtual, local-nonlocal, deterministic-probabilistic, fermion-boson, particle-field, quantum-classical, coherent-decoheremt, matter-antimatter, discrete - continuous, real-imaginary (for tunnelung particle momentum, that is), eigenfunction-eigenvalue, etc. The above combined with the work of Dr. Stuart

Hameroff and Sir Roger Penrose concerning general anesthestics' effects on the quantum mechanics of brain neural microtubule function and consciousness *and* the decades long observed reverse effects of conscious observation upon quantum behavior of particles and their wavefunctions means that there is too much scientific evidence in favor of it to just dismiss dualism out of hand. Oh and have you noticed how "the new atheists", Dawkins, Hitchens, Dennett, Shepherd, etc. all base their arguments in 19th century physics and biology while critics of Darwinism tend to argue from the standpoint of 21st Century science? Matter provides the boundary conditions on the fundamental quantum field which enables the encoding of structures of quantum entanglement possibly similar to how a scaffolding or template can make certain

reactions more energetically favorable. Vacuum entanglement patterns can occupy the interstices of scaffolding provided by neural microtubule network boundary conditions on the vacuum electromagnetic fields are

(12)

required to initiate vacuum entanglement states mirroring physical particle entanglement states of the matter supplying the boundary conditions. This mirroring however cannot be complete due to inequivalence of entanglement contexts.

There is a complexity threshold for conscious thought and perception but this is for thought in perception admitted to, registered in, as it were, i.e., consciousness not for consciousness as such, which is fundamental like any other quantum field may be a threshold for ego - may not be for reified egoic consciousness. Is egoic consciousness accessing a

pre-existing subspectrum or an emergent subspectrum of consciousness as such?

One-dimensional time is a shadow and a projection of multidimensional time. Kind of like a temporal hologram. Consciousness is the intuition of time according to Kant.

That is the mistaken notion of the neodarwinian synthesis. The genome is a cybernetic control system.

Proteins are an expression of information in DNA. The DNA's information is not itself an expression of any information because it constitutes a blind filtering of merely random changes (mutations) to its structure. Epigenetics complicates this model by introducing controls, which are anything but random, at both ends - epigenetic information modulates mutation, as well as alters patterns of expression of genetic base pair sequences as amino acid sequences that must be folded in only relatively very few of many trillions of possible ways in 3- dimensional space to function properly within the cell. By way of epigenetics, metainformation becomes involved, and although the path of information within the cybernetic control system of the genome-protein system may indeed be one way, in the absence of meta-levels of information, i.e., information confined to a surface (single level), with the emergence of multi-level information in the system, i.e., metainformation of the genome-epigenome-histone-ribosome-cytoplasm-epigenome-genome system, information originating at the genome is no longer confined in its path to unidirectional arcs along a surface, but is allowed to move across this surface. Topology here is perhaps metaphorical, but serves to illustrate that a paradigm change in

(14)

evolution theory shall likely be required, one that a growing number of main stream biologists believe cannot be successfully accommodated within the current paradigm of the now 80 year old "Neodarwinian Synthesis". Once I get my laptop back from "computer heaven", I will include appropriate screenshots to further illustrate.

Before we sneer at the role of the metaphors employed by the theorist, we should realize that all concepts upon which theories are based are in reality only specialized metaphors, which are artificially restricted in their reference, application and context. But that the ground of these three restrictions is dynamic, and shall inevitably back-react upon the theorist. In some cases this back reaction can be stably maintained for a time, though never indefinitely, the great success of the quantum theory notwithstanding.

The tension between reason (as opposed to rationality) and mysticism is ultimately soluble. The catch is that the only proper context for this is

Natural selection is hamstrung by the fact that incipient structures are of absolutely no use to the evolving organism in its competition for limited resources and mates.

If it is the most bloodthirsty tribes, races and subspecies which win at every turn in the evolutionary competition, then why has morality and ethics emerged at all in the course of man's evolution?

Without transcendental mind and only evolution and natural selection to guide us there is nothing standing in the way of a thorough going

April 2014 Paul Davies argument which is a restatement of Bertrand Russell's argument that all of us could have popped into existence 5 minutes ago complete with false memories of an earthly life extending back many years fails because of considerations of context dependency of meaning, also in light of Wittgenstein's private language argument and perhaps also in light of quantum decoherence theory. Duration in relation to the building up of complexity overtime is very much dependent upon the Planck mass-energy limit of fluctuation size and the density of Planck magnitude or smaller fluctuations, not just in terms of the scalar equation for the Heisenberg time-energy uncertainty principle. May 2014 Of course, what Russell is making sport of is that absurdity of a perfect illusion of meaning the in utter absence of a temporal context. The “five minutes ago” just obscures this realization. A five minute interval of human biography cannot just “hang in the void” context-free.

What is the connection between the private language argument and Penrose's one graviton limit for quantum decoherence?

bootstrapping process to be successful if one were a Boltzmann brain one would not be aware of this fact in other words. Investigate "Fine Tuning Argument Fail" on youtube. Does this argument itself fail? The multiverse channels us from out of the void, anthropically fine-tuned consciousness.

The state of the observer or experimenter does not become quantum entangled with the apparatus that he is seeking to adjust in order to perform a characteristically quantum-mechanical mechanical experiment such as that of nonlocally connected or quantum correlated detector clicks. In general the nonlocal connectivity exhibited by the mind of the quantum observer is not traceable to an aggregation of historical quantum entanglement between the observer and the external world. In other words at least in part the quantum entanglement of the observer's mental processes is internal and internally determined. A generalized description of the freedom which the observer possesses in determining the experimental conditions and the settings of his quantum observational apparatus is his freedom to select a system of basis vectors, i.e., a *basis* for expressing the observables measured in

the experiment.

Look at internal and external conditions for the breakdown of Bohm's causality principle vis a vis decoherence and wavefunction collapse. goo=Wigner's friend"" and "quantum solipsism".

If quantum experimenters did not possess human free will then they would only be able to select bases for quantum measurement that they themselves were embedded in. And this vector basis would be the only basis possible - it would be the same quantum basis that every other person was embedded in. Here we see the connection between the consciousness of the ego and the question of other minds and the

external world.

In the same way that God transcends the dual opposite categories of existence vs nonexistent he also transcends the category of being in the sense of not being a mere instantiation of being as an abstract category.

Certain questions are so big that we can only hope to answer them by finding a more proper formulation of the question. Frequently we ask a question about one thing and formulator answer in terms of a different kind of the same thing. Substance is always presupposed by form but then the question of the one versus the many in relation to the concept of substance becomes problematic. The notion of there being a general concept of substance is itself very problematic because if there are multiple substances what is there which is more fundamental than the multiply distinct substances such that they are instantiations of this general substance does this imply that there must be something more general than substance in order to distinguish and categorize different

(19)

substances?

Multiple instantiations of consciousness in the absence of a concept of consciousness seems to invoke Leibniz' principle of pre-established harmony.

This may explain the successful climbing up the hill by a complex system within a single local region of rugged fitness landscap, but without nonlocality and quantum entanglement we cannot explain the climbing down from a local maximum in order to creare the opportunity for ascending a neighboring greater local maximum.

Teleology without intention requires two dimensional time and self-organizing properties of particles and fields, which cannot be captured within a linear deterministic causality.

Chance vs determinism... are they mutually exclusive and or is there a

third option or way?

Imagine a rugged fitness landscape composed of generations which leave behind varying numbers of descendants. We might need to bring in a second time axis in order to construct an accurate rugged fitness landscape if we are going to take into account relative multi-generational success at reproduction. This could be modeled in terms of the strength of back reaction signals from later generations with the strength of the signal being a function of both the number of descendants in the proximate generation and the integration of distal generations in terms if

number of descendants.

differential equations versus integral equations versus some unknown form of equations belonging to neither class?

Future contexts may be in competition with previous contexts as well as competing with multiple parallel distinct contexts. We don't have to invoke creationism or intelligent design to explain teleology, we merely have to invoke a more sophisticated model of temporality.

August 2014 “When he contemplates the perfidy of those who refuse to believe, Dawkins can scarcely restrain his fury. "It is absolutely safe to say that, if you meet somebody who claims not to believe in evolution, that person is ignorant, stupid or insane (or wicked, but I'd rather not consider that)." Dawkins went on to explain, by the way, that what he dislikes particularly about creationists is that they are intolerant. We must therefore believe in evolution or go to the madhouse, but what precisely is it that we are required to believe? "Evolution" can mean anything from the uncontroversial statement that bacteria "evolve" resistance to antibiotics to the grand metaphysical claim that the universe and mankind "evolved" entirely by purposeless, mechanical forces. A word that elastic is likely to mislead, by implying that we know as much about the grand claim as we do about the small one.” – Phillip E. Johnson, Darwin on Trial

I am not a Creationist and I could only be with considerable qualification be termed an “Intelligent Design” advocate. What I do believe is that, analogous to String Theory of theoretical physics, which postulates the compactification of spatial dimensions, but only at the tiniest of scales, i.e., at the “Planck scale”, I postulate compactified temporal dimensions, which constitute the feedback paths between mutually exclusive branches of a quantum superposition of atomic or molecular states. The connection of this feedback is instantaneous within our single dimension of causal time, and is characterized as instantaneous quantum entanglement. But if this notion of “instantaneous connection” is somewhat disagreeable, then perhaps

(21)

quantum entanglement is but a manifestation of a supracausal process taking place in a higher dimension of time, i.e., within a 2nd time dimension. The collapse of a quantum superposition is in certain cases effected along the lines of a quantum computation in which the new eigenstate constitutes the output of the computation.

Can multiverse physics and the implied multidimensional temporality

thereof simulate teleology?

The absurdity of Goldman's Quantum Jumping paradigm may actually be implied by the inner logic of the Anthropic cosmological principle. We cannot deny teleology, that is, its operation in the evolution of greater biological complexity as well as in the more foundational chemical evolution. This is because of the obvious self-organizing

properties of atoms and molecules.

Communications received from our closest most intimate friends, soul mates, life partner, mentors these have a distinctive quality namely we cannot imagine these communications could somehow secretly be the invention of our own minds whether subconscious or unconscious. What is called reason necessarily transcends subjectivity and so points to the reality of being beyond the subjective, namely that of an objective world and other minds. The cash value of objectivity is intersubjectivity. Here again we see how reason to the reality of being beyond the merely subjective.

Grammar relates state so on a state-space that is of a manifoldly connected nature. Topology of temporality is here key.

The contingency of language (see Richard Rorty on this) is importantly connected to the concept of grammar and Chomsky's nativist understanding thereof. Somehow the gulf between distinct minds is

(22)

overcome and information may actually be passed between minds, but this is necessarily facilitated by way of grammar. Semantics is to

context as syntax is to. . .

Grammar functions as filter and ultra-hard encryption along the same lines as how a web page uses a captcha image.

kwo=“Our sense organs and our brain operate as an intricate kind of filter which limits and directs the mind’s clairvoyant powers, so that under normal conditions attention is concentrated on just those objects or situations that are of biological importance for the survival of the organism and its species . . . As a rule, it would seem, the mind rejects ideas coming from another mind as the body r ejects grafts coming from another body.”

—Cyril Burt (1883-1971) Professor of Psychology University College, London

The moral of the story here is that, above is an instance of an "excluded middle" between chance and necessity, or randomness and determinism. The only "thing" that I can imagine that populates this logical excluded middle is consciousness. (I mean, think about it...a computer with randomly switching circuit elements couldn't be conscious, nor could a machine with circuit elements that only switched in a predictable pattern (according to some mathematical formula or equation). I suspect this hints at a breakdown in the presumed strict analogy between the determinism of physics and the logical necessity of mathematics. Say, because what we take to be equations describing unchanging law like physical behavior are indeed only approximations. It has been said that there has to be something that "breathes fire into the equations of physics" to make them "about something" instead of their being entirely abstract. What breathes fire into the equations is something that we intentionally ignore or just fail to notice. But what we ignore is grounded in what we fail to notice.

Without Kant's "thing in itself", objectivity can only be intersubjectivity.

If the concept of being transcends that of existence this is provide support to the ontological argument?

However, the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics is 1) Only a statistical law, not fundamental like, say the law embodied in Maxwell's Equations of Electromagnetism, 2) The 2nd Law only applies to *isolated systems* and 3) The 2nd Law of Thermodynamics assumes that any thermodynamic system is composed of discrete states such that combinations and permutations of the arrangement of these states (or elements) *exhausts* the possibilities for the system. Fluctuations in the quantum vacuum field are limited in size by what is called the Planck Mass Limit, given by: ≈ 1.2209×1019 GeV/c2 = 2.17651(13)×10−8 kg, (or 21.7651 ng). So a Boltzmann brain could only appear out of the quantum vacuum within a preexisting physical brain as a new configuration of the quantum states of that brain's tubulin dimer network of 21.7651 nanograms mass-energy equivalent or less. On this view, there would be no actual "Boltzmann brains", merely Boltzmann brain continuants of the integral quantum entangled global tubulin dimer network states of an actual brain. These Boltzmann brain continuants would correspond to temporal bubbles of consciousness, i.e., of the "specious present" and each BB continuant would be informed by previous BB continuants through the quantum vacuum filtering action and resonant frequency tuning *an actual brain*. Only BB vacuum fluctuations that are most compatible with the intact memory traces within a given person's brain could likely become a subsequent BB continuant of that person's consciousness. (In other words, the experiential continuity of lived conscious experience would not be merely some pernicious illusion) I think something along these lines can tame the bizarreness of Boltzmann brains predicted by inflationary cosmology and string theory and reconcile these predictions with human intuition and common sense. Of course, there are still intriguing implications of this slant on BB's, but they would not be of the

(24)

ridiculous sort that has appeared in recent popular scientific and philosophical publications, etc. Somewhat along the lines of Descartes' "Cogito Ergo Sum" idea, we know that the brain of a conscious person is *not a closed or isolated system"*, since, if it were, there would be no context for what is happening inside his brain and "without context there is now meaning" and that person would not actually possess conscious states of awareness (necessarily implied by understanding or experiencing "meanings"). Also, if the brain were an isolated system, then two identical brains could not imply the presence of two distinct conscious minds. However, add the fact that each is embedded or grounded in a historically distinct context of embryo-logical development, etc., and this seeming paradox is handily resolved. Human creativity moreover implies that the system of the brain (or whatever serves as the physical substrate for the conscious mind), cannot be just a changing configuration of exclusively discrete, unchanging states for otherwise the changes in the configuration of this underlying system would be causally deterministic - a situation in stark contradiction with human freedom and creativity. An objection here is that human freedom and creativity may in fact be an illusion. But the objector must acknowledge the disqualifying caveat here that, if human freedom and creativity are illusory, then so is consciousness and again, turning to Descartes' "Cogito", we can confidently assert that "we know that ain't true!" c.f., http://www.scribd.com/doc/47346743/Challenges-to-the-Second-Law-of-Thermodynamics

"A similar thesis has been argued for by Allen Everett [2004], specifically that in the case of Deutsch’s version of the Multiverse Thesis the theory of decoherence indicates that time travelling objects must be broken into microscopic fragments. Here I intend to

What breaks the degeneracy of real brains vs Boltzmann brains? May 2014 Well, according to what was just said concerning the Planck limit on vacuum fluctuation size, it must be: an already broken scale invariance, i.e., simulacra at different spatiotemporal scales are necessarily functionally inequivalent. Instantiation (of a concept) is a concrete process.

“I do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it.” - Mark Twain

However, the fact that one is conscious, rather than being a "philosophical zombie" perhaps implies that the Universe, Multiverse or whatever one terms this realm of being has registered (and is in the continual act of registering) one's temporal existence and so Lucretius' "symmetry argument" may indeed fail, i.e., in favor of the proposition that the nature of nonexistence *before* and *after* one's brief Earthly existence are identical. Lucretius' "symmetry argument" carries the assumption that no metaphysical work is performed by the act of human existence - an assumption that I suspect is altogether unfounded in the light of such modern physical principles embodied in the quantum "no-cloning" theorem, vacuum entanglement, decoherence theory, two-slit experiment, "Wigner's friend", Penrose-Hameroff "ORCH-OR theory", and so on." Lime Cat Another possible breakage of Lucretius' symmetry: if each person is "called forth" from a *distinctly different* abyss, (this would certainly beef up the ethics of mutual respect, that is, such a transcendent "alterity of the other"), then nonexistence would not possess a simple structure and so likely would possess no such "Lucretian symmetry" as Twain is glibly presuming. You could say..."truth splits this degeneracy". But without a transcendent observer, there's still this degeneracy of ontology vs epistemology. Infinite regress.

God and reified individual consciousness are two sides of the same coin qua projections from sociolinguistic constructs. Boltzmann brains in the vacuum require bootstrap boundary conditions

on the quantum field.

Margenau says quantum superposed states are always of a given quantum mechanical system of matter and fields, vacuum boundary

conditions must be present.

The first cause dilemma placed in a quantum mechanical context, that is, the vacuum cannot provide boundary conditions for itself. It cannot boot

strap itself in other words.

The back reaction of complex its extended physical structures upon the quantum vacuum transcends the configuration complexity possibilities for fluctuations of this vacuum.

Mutual recognition of behavioral genetics.

Ziad asks, "Could god recreate same person twice? Let’s assume x exist and then god destroyed it and recreated it again. Is that same x or a similar x? Is it a duplicate x? No way has the original x come back after destruction."

Since a physical duplicate of your body, down to the identical individual atoms is not the same as you, (by the famous "no-cloning" theorem of Quantum Mechanics), which is to say, not truly identical to you, then therefore the true underlying basis of your identity is not to be sought in the configuration of some particular set of atoms and molecules. I ask you, if God had managed, hypothetically speaking, of course, to create you for the first time, then why would it be *more difficult* rather than less so, for Him to create you once again? After all, He didn't have a template to start with the first time, but He now has a template to work from for a second time around. In a word, how does a feat which was possible on the first occasion become impossible to reproduce on

(27)

subsequent occasions? It is our subconscious acknowledgement of the essential irreversibility of the act of human existence which is secretly at work here in this discussion. You and I, because of our distinctly different philosophical prejudices relating to how we regard this irreversibility of each act of individual human existence, from "opposite ends of the binoculars", as it were, view the initial human incarnation as either enabling or disabling the possibility of a second human existence. Also we come to the problem with different views of temporality. You see it's not an instantaneous configuration of spatially discrete elements which provides the underlying ground of being and becoming (sustainment of being over time) for one’s personal identity. Although ones being possessed a beginning in time, the very ground of one's being lies all together outside of time. Via application of Solipsistic Cosmological Principle, one enters the realm of time and space at its own good pleasure. The immortality of, or better said, *the eternity of* the ground of your being is a much more certain proposition than is the external world and the other minds which appear to populate said world.

August 2014 fb=Concerning the "re" in reincarnation. I think it's high time (no pun intended) for philosophers to step out of the box on this question. If there's anything that the anthropic cosmological principle and multiverse theory (not to mention quantum mechanics and relativity theory) has taught us about time, it's that we should not confine ourselves to the notion of a unitary cosmic time/temporality. You got here for the first time in *this* timeline. Since there are an unlimited number of other times (completely distinct and disjoint) from this time (i.e., the time that you are in now), it follows that you can always come into being "for the first time" an unlimited number of times. . . and this would not be to invoke the phenomenon of "reincarnation" in any way. . . because all of these distinct times in the multiverse *have nothing whatever to do with each other*. It's soooo hard to let go of the notion of there only being a single metaphysical timeline, one that somehow coincides with the temporality of the subjective egoic self, but once you see how to metaphorically shuffle off that philosophical "mortal coil" but effecting

(28)

the implied mental trick here, then ones doubts about the eternal nature of the self utterly fall away. But alas, this leap of insight is just too hard for most people and even many geniuses are not capable of it. . . because it's not a question of sheer intelligence as a certain level of imaginative

openness is required.

The philosophy of empiricism is the linear, zero-threshold extrapolation

of knowledge acquisition.

Flowers for Algernon and the essentially social nature of qualitative, as opposed to quantitative knowledge acquisition.

Somewhat in the spirit of Frank J. Tipler's "Omega Point": The whole "burning in hell for an eternity" concept is perhaps just a kind of metaphor, though perhaps not an altogether groundless one. This metaphor has undoubtedly functioned in myriad diverse cultures over these many centuries as a strategic mechanism of social control and as a scare tactic to compel compliance of the masses and individuals alike with the disguised agendas of social elites. But the notion of hell is perhaps also in part aboriginally the product of the fevered imagination of some particularly gifted Bronze Age Levantine tribesman-poets’ interpretation of the horror of unending separation from God. Because I don't really believe in the God of most rabid atheists’ impious imaginations, there is really not that great of a difference of opinion between them and me. In the spirit of an attempt to reconcile my semi-orthodox Christian beliefs with a scientific world view, I interpret the whole “separation from God” trope for eternal damnation in light of the following eminently quantum and therefore scientific notions: quantum entanglement, quantum vacuum, quantum nonlocality, quantum tunneling, quantum cavity electrodynamics, and I shall include one additional concept derived from the late classical physics of Maxwell and his famous equations of electromagnetism, namely that of the "Gibbs Phenomenon". Applying the interesting and pervasive physical phenomenon of Willard Gibbs to a quantum tunneling wavefunction in which the barrier is reinterpreted as that of God-man separation in the

(29)

afterlife in which "eternity" equates with the infinite height of the barrier - required to prevent penetration of the “quantum brain” wavefunctions of unforgiven sinners into the “heavenly ground state vacuum”. The eternity or *everlastingness* of the separation is basically needed to prevent the wavefunctions, describing the quantum- vacuum-embedded functioning of the brains of atheists and Satan's fallen angels from quantum tunneling into heaven’s vacuum ground state and threaten to disrupt Jesus' administration of life within heaven, effectively amounting to an intrusion of sin nature. (A potential energy barrier of finite height, however large, permits eventual probablistic quantum tunneling of wavefunctions through the barrier.) And if conscious mental functioning, i.e., cognition and will are conditioned by a preexistent ground of being within the quantum vacuum that is spontaneously productive of virtual Boltzmann brains as a kind of necessary percolation process within the brain of each hominid ape, so as to endow it with self-awareness and a free will, then the only way to excluded undesirable Boltzmann brain vacuum fluctuations, so as to protect the new, “glorified brains” of those bodily resurrected in heaven, would be to erect an infinite potential barrier, rather than a merely large, finite one, thusly separating fluctuations of “good quality” or “fidelity” from those of “bad fidelity”. Otherwise, the Gibbs Phenomenon (applied to the quantum vacuum electromagnetic field) would permit eventual probabilistic “leakage” or quantum tunneling of the undesirable quantum information borne on the inwardly seeping nonlocally connected vacuum field fluctuations from outside the barrier. On this view, heaven is then an exercise in cavity quantum electrodynamics writ large. An implication of this view is that those who have been resurrected on the “dark side” of this potential barrier would possess brains that could only resonantly tune to Boltzmann brain fluctuations within the global quantum vacuum field that are of lesser stability and fidelity, i.e., that are noisier or “more entropic”. The integrity of function of such brains, resurrected on this dark side would, we imagine, be much more prone to problems of internal regulation. It is easy to imagine that anxiety, fear and hate, etc. and other negative emotions, as well as disruption, and dis-coordination of other psychic faculties, might well be the inevitable result for such

(30)

unfortunate souls. Bodily resurrection on this view would be a general physical phenomenon much like that underlying one’s original though nonetheless equally “miraculous” earthly embodiment, and would be in its universality akin to "the rain that falls on the just and unjust" alike, as befits any physical phenomenon, e.g., hurricane, tsunami, etc. A precondition to resurrection in a “glorified body” might correspond to a kind of “scrubbing” of the physical interface between the saved soul’s brain, or between his brain microtubule tubulin dimer network and his unique subspectrum of vacuum electromagnetic field fluctuations, performed while he is still alive, say, as a result of the influence of a new subspectrum (corresponding to the action of the “Holy Spirit”), such that a kind of preparatory frequency filtering is put in place, providing the underlying basis for psychic continuity, through conserved quantum entanglement encoded information, into the “up” or “good” side of the infinite potential barrier partitioning the “eternity” of the resurrection world. Since preexisting quantum vacuum correlations between two points within spacetime are always necessary to support any causal connectivity between these points, there will no longer be any possibility for causal interaction between opposite sides of the infinite potential barrier, i.e., the Gibbs Phenomena of quantum vacuum wavefunctions would be altogether “squelched.” Namely, there can be no correlations between fluctuations of the quantum vacuum on opposite sides of the infinite potential barrier. This is reminiscent of the fact of Schrodinger’s cat becoming so isolated in his black box in order to be placed into a superposition state that the quantum processes underlying the biochemical function of the cat in its “living branch” of this superposition, e.g., the quantum superposition of wavefunctions that supports all covalent bonding activity, would be effectively shut down. And because it is the spontaneous energy fluctuations of quantum vacuum, which is responsible for Heisenberg energy uncertainty, /\E, which in turn produces all temporal change, i.e., /\t ~ h//\E, by virtue of the complete separation of these fundamental field fluctuations into two distinct partitions, it follows that time and temporality in “heaven” will have become totally separate from time and temporality in “hell”. Such a bifurcation of the time line would effectively be irreversible because

(31)

the event of bifurcation would not be contained in either timeline.

I cleaned this up and edited it some. See also, Frank J. Tipler's Tulane University and personal webpages. I will probably end up emailing him the final version of this as it contains some ideas that he might find useful. If there are any questions, I will be happy to elaborate, since I have glossed over some details. The guiding insight for me is the consideration that our workaday world of conventional common sense is underlain, if you will, by a fundamental fluctuation field, i.e., the quantum vacuum electroweak nuclear field. So relating aspects of some important area of cultural common sense, e.g, Christianity, or Organic Gardening, American Football, competitive billiards, etc. for that matter, is not so ridiculous a proposition as at first seems. All "ordinary" phenomena are emergent from the universal quantum field. As Alan Watts used to like to say,

“In digital signal processing applications there is sometimes an effect known as the Gibbs phenomenon, which is a characteristic ringing associated with sharp edges and transients. Is this a function of sampling, quantization or filtering in the system?”

There is no "twice". The ground of one's being is eternally given only once...but there are unlimited manifestations of time. The only reality is the absence of limitation. The question becomes whether this absence is a one or indeed a many. Each soul possesses its own eternity.

May 2014 Sam and I agreed long ago, that this absence is a plurality, which in mutual collaboration has produced a common metaphorical ground. Each metaphor begins as a creative leap of insight before it inevitably cures, hardening into an impenetrable ball of a stock metaphor. Humanity can perhaps be fundamentally divided into two groups, the one, formed of individuals who bring new metaphors into being, and the other, formed of those who consort and trade exclusively in stock metaphors. It has been noted that the figurative and the literal take each other's place in dreams. So is there then no real basis for comparison between the two groups other than biology? (Fundamentally similar up to the very point at which they are irreconcilably different? The poet, the artist and the philosopher indeed find themselves strangers within a

corresponding protein via the sequence: RNA → DNA → RNA → protein. This extends the funda-mental process identified by Francis Crick, in which the sequence is: DNA → RNA → protein.”

December 2012 By analyzing the DNA of both parents and that of the child, it can be determined how many so-called germ line mutations are present in the child’s DNA. By this means it was established that approximately 40 such mutations typically occur between generations. The vast majority of these mutations cause no changes in the types of proteins that are produced, i.e., they are not “point mutations” and are mostly harmless because their gene regulatory implications only manifest themselves over the course of an extraordinarily long life span, interacting as they would with patterns of gene expression not heretofore selected for, which is to say manifesting the biochemical self-organizing properties of matter and not the higher level properties of environmental context sensitivity. So-called harmless or "silent" mutations are far more efficaciously interoperative with gene regulatory structures that lie still far in the future than indeed they are with respect to currently existing structures, which points up the providential nature of the self-organizing properties of atoms and organic molecules as a kind of preexisting infrastructure that promotes and enables evolution.

understood and the two distinct and we related of this phrase, "thing in itself". It is clear that the thing itself must be indifferent to the passage of time and therefore the originator of temporality. Voice to text is operating suddenly through use of synonyms instead of phonetic transcription....the ghost in the quantum computer. Discuss the tertium datur of the self, "zweiselection", i.e., the self and the other, but not just any other (another), for there is no other without the transcendent other, e.g., me and Jesus, pursuant to the anthropic cosmological principle and the fine tuning of immanent and transcendent consciousness. How to distinguish another from an other, i.e., an other who is not me from an other who is me – the me that is always just here

A simulation is based on something outside of itself. A really existing system is based on something outside of what can be known by any inhabitant of the system.

March 2014 If there is no thing in itself, then there must be something maintaining the order of things in existence apart from the mere indifference of creation to the passage of time. There is a special class of counterfactuals these are a counterfactual that we would never have been in a position to observe. For example if there had been an advanced technological civilization prior to the current one on planet Earth we should have been able to observe that the earth’s crust is strangely bereft of precious metals. But this would only be possible if we were observers from another planet with its own precious metals to support advanced technological civilization

God is what is secretly pointed to by the unity of hidden assumptions of successful splitting of the myriad linguistic degeneracies that human communication is prey to.

Both general relativity and quantum mechanics have passed every experimental tests too many decimal places too many standard deviations or Sigma.. And yet these two highly successful theories cannot be merged together harmoniously. Does the experimental success of both series implying that they must be harmoniously blended that this must be possible or just that carry a hidden assumption of metaphysical prejudice? Does a so-called Theory of Everything require data in addition to what is available through intersubjective observation and experiment? The concept of the “cosmic breadboard” as the basis for, for example, on the one hand, a finite speed of light, time dilation, gravitation and spacetime variations in the local velocity of light in vacuum from the partitioning of CPU workload/bandwidth, as well as providing the theoretical modeling basis for wavefunction collapse, probabilistic quantum behavior (algorithms for “guessing” the next computational state) and quantum decoherence (link rot), on the other hand, evinces a possible deep though perhaps comprehensible interrelationship between GR and QM. Perception as “cognitive tuning”, i.e., as quantum mechanically mediated tuning of brain circuits to resonate with selected vacuum frequencies and bandwidth spectra instead of as portrayed in the naïve realistic models of sense perception may point to a threshold, above which, cognitive tuning becomes independent of intrinsic quantum entanglement (and its self-reprocessing) in the vacuum and below which, and below which these two processes (which may indeed be on a par with one another) act in mutual competition.

Must spontaneous quantum entanglement reprocessing be intentional and object based?

Since there is no concept of consciousness therefore there is no instantiations for quantification of consciousness. This means that there

(36)

is no set of conditions which excludes my being. I am always already here for the first time. Nor can there be a theory of consciousness (without a concept thereof). (One can always come back “for the first time” as there is nothing to prevent it! It’s how one originally came to be.)

One of the implications of eternal inflation theory is that each observer within a given pocket universe does not have access to veritable cosmic time and so in a very real sense exists within a simulation possessing its

own internal time.

There is a growing consensus in New Age circles that life transformative events, even tragic once, are directed somehow by the Higher Self of the person who is subject to these events or incidents.

Because the system is radically reset upon death, if the evangelical atheists are right, anything becomes possible, as a novel occurrence since all of the restrictions that might have prevented novelty are removed. Even God becomes possible, that is, from a starting zero-point of altogether unconditioned being, which is the transcendent ground of being. This is the true inevitable underlying logic of multiverse metaphysics. It has been rightfully said that anything at all will indeed happen that is not specifically forbidden by quantum mechanics. This is consistent with the principle of the superabundance of unconditioned being. Da das System radikal auf den Tod zurückzusetzen ist, wenn die

evangelische Atheisten Recht haetten, wird alles möglich, als ein neues Auftreten, da alle Beschränkungen, die Neuheit verhindert haben könnten, entfernt geworden sind. Selbst Gott möglich wird, das heißt, von einer Startnullpunkt von insgesamt unbedingten Seins das der transzendenten Grund des Seins ist. Dies ist die wahre unvermeidlich zugrunde liegende Logik des Multiversummetaphysiks. Es hat zu Recht gesagt worden, dass überhaupt alles in der Tat passieren soll, dass nicht speziell durch die Quantenmechanik verboten ist. Dies steht im Einklang mit dem Prinzip der Überfülle der unbedingten Seins.

(37)

It is not merely that the time line frays at infinity. Unconditioned being makes no choice between the ontological alternatives of the one and the many.

Investigate the concept of agnostic theism.

Analyze and deconstruct the naive tissue of assumptions lying behind such statements as "the universe has been here forever". Between the emergence and the originality of time, anything is possible but not necessarily inevitable.

When you are dead you're no longer attached to the time line along which you lived your human existing so you're free to start "again" (English is not equipped to describe situations of multidimensional temporal tenses), as though for the first time , but it's not "again" because altogether new time. It's difficult for one to grasp because one thinks in either/ or and black and white terms... either you live again or you won't, but there's a third way analogous to getting here in "the first place". @$One's consciousness simply possesses multiple instances, however in the total and utter absence of instantiation of an immanent concept or category, i.e,. a concept graspable by a finite intellect. The instantiation of consciousness is with respect to a transcendental

concept of consciousness. Multidimensional subjective temporality is

implied by the transcendental nature of consciousness. All concepts are metaphors masquerading as such, except for transcendental

consciousness and its concepts, which are purely abstract, i.e., not taken from experience as indeed metaphors are. @$Can the purely concrete be truly concrete and un-abstract? Doesn’t the concept of pureness or purity imply abstraction? March 2014 The notion of the “purely concrete” is an

abstraction and so mind as the only source of abstraction becomes unavoidable. May 2014 It occurs to me that the notion of “the purely concrete” is an abstraction and so mind, as the only source of abstraction, becomes an unavoidable precondition to an inevitable phenomenon. This is a good definition of immanent necessity, i.e., the
