remember science is a philosphy. it has by its nature limitations. it creates a model of the universe.
try representing the universe in lego bricks and you will get the idea.
no it is what we make it.
try looking at it this way... a rock is no different..
no i am saying the act of observation creates our world.
are you not traveling through time atm.
has your perception of time ever changed. ever been in a slow motion car crash for example. some food for thought...
time is a dimension and all dimensions are an epiphonoma of mind...
no it is not. do you see atoms with your eyes
That is what science deals with. Not God, Not Religion...
ofc, would you care to explain the difference between the moment before the big bang and a universe created by god. they both create something from nothing...
Science is not a Religion.
it is a beleif system too, just a different one. once you had the
spirit of gravity, now you have the theory of gravity, nothing in it
It's a Tool. It's a way of looking at the world
yep just like religion
and you cant explain why science works, so you're not even explaining anything.
i meant were are the laws of co-operation to balance the laws of competition....nature gives
knowledge is only one branch of understanding.
considering classic science works on a subject / object orintation could you please submit just one paper to me that proves the subject exists. cas you wont find any. a weak foundation for a house of cards..
No, SCIENCE does not have limitations... WE have limitations, try to remember that
no it is what we make it.
No, it *IS* what *IT IS*....
A crystal is not a virtual particle.
Quantum physics confounds the mind because it proves that without an observer, reality as we know it would not exist. Known as The Observer Effect, it implies that not only did an observer precede all known phenomena that we think of as reality, but that the act of observing brought that same reality into existence. This of course leads to a profound but obvious conclusion: being that observation is an act of consciousness, consciousness therefore must have pre-existed before anything else.
Frank Herbert observed " most physicists agree that the results of measurements are truly real." In other words no one can dispute the findings of quantum physics because the pure science of math required to prove the theories doesn't lie. So if the math is correct, we are forced to conclude: the substance of the universe is consciousness
Marx Planck Founder of Quantum Theory "All matter originates and exists only by virtue of a force which brings the particle of an atom to vibration and holds this most minute solar system of the atom together. We must assume the existence of a conscious and intelligent mind. This mind is the matrix of all matter." Anton Zeilinger Quantum Physicist "What is real is dependent upon whether I look and the way I look. This is not a philosophical question we can see this in experiment. " John Hagelin Quantum Physicist " The ultimate inseparability of the observer from the observed." Neils Bohr Quantum Physicist "Everything is possibility until an observer observes and then things come into being." Amit Goswami Theoretical Nuclear Physicist "The meaning of quantum physics gives us a new world view ... consciousness is the ground of our being....Quantum physics enables us to see directly that we can make sense of the world only if we base the world on consciousness.".
That's pretty sad, actually... since the world predates our observational capacities, and thus, your entire point has been refuted by REALITY.
So, you are saying that by perceiving time as having been slowed down, we are IN ACTUALITY, traveling slower through time.
Now, one could say that ALL dimensions are just part of the mind, in the exact same way that I could say that YOU are just a part of MY mind.... and it would be JUST as true. So, in essence... you are saying absolutely nothing in the most complicated possible way that you can find.
your religion tells us what happened before the beginning of the universe, and so you automatically *BELIEVE* that science is claiming this also
No, it is not a BELIEF system, it is a KNOWLEDGE system.
Religion is not a way of looking at the world... Religion is a way of looking at a world that we can't actually SEE, Prove, or interact with in any meaningful way.
Well, first off, Religion isn't a tool in the same sense as one would typically think of a tool. It's a system of control both mentally and morally
The question about the act observation and its effects on the natural world are speculative. Did the crystal exist in the rock before we broke it open and observed it being there? This is no different than asking if a tree fell in the woods and no one was around to hear it, if it would make a sound. The obvious answer to both is Yes
The simple fact is that with both scenarios, even though you do not witness it as it occurs, and therefore have no direct observation, you can witness the effect afterwards. The damage from the fallen tree, the rock itself, both are conclusive evidence of the test criteria without requiring direct observation.
In regards to direct observation, there are certain quantum experiments that seem to suggest that Direct observation affects the results, but this is at the quantum level only
n order to attempt to equate Science with Religion, the simplest comparison is if we had no Religion and only Science...how would the world be changed?
Again thank you for reply.... We seem to be in disagrement here a bit. All fair in love and war...
Science does have limitations. We have invented tools like language and math to help us understand and communicate better.
Language by its very nature is an abstract
when we try and describe the universe with an absrtact we will always fall short.
It allows to make limited models of the world around us. They are however just models not the world itself.
Science is a philosophy.
1. philosophy, philosophical system, school of thought
2. the rational investigation of questions about existence and knowledge and ethics
It sets a definition of rules to allow us to understand the universe.
Scientific method refers to a body of techniques for investigating phenomena, acquiring new knowledge, or correcting and integrating previous knowledge.[1] To be termed scientific, a method of inquiry must be based on gathering observable, empirical and measurable evidence subject to specific principles of reasoning.
These rules work within parameters and these parameters define what we can and cannot understand.
In some instances this works well.
look at which sciences work well and which dont.
If you admit your above staement to be true, that we as humans have limitations, then it would be far to deduce that we the inventors of science have presribed limitations on science.
Through are very nature.
no it is what we make it.
No, it *IS* what *IT IS*....
Well i guess we differ to agree.
That is a paradox, but it is balanced. The ying and yang.
A crystal is not a virtual particle.
Are you so sure a crystal is not a virtual particle...
Quantum physics confounds the mind because it proves that without an observer, reality as we know it would not exist........
and if it did exist before anything else then the crystal can be nothing but a virtual particle. A creation of consciousness.
This is difficult to grasp as it requires a massive paradigm change in thinking. It is not an off beat idea it is the core of neoscience.
Frank Herbert observed
and has a shared belief system among many very prominent physicists.
"We must assume the existence of a conscious and intelligent mind."
The above contradicts your below statement. Your view is what is taught.
That is exactly what i am saying. Time is relative and your perception can be vaslty different to mine.
Time is a percpeption and when i view time in a slower rate i have slowed by perception of time down and therefore time itself.
The universe is far more fluid than we are taught to belief. Dont rely on knowledge to tell you that. Instead use your own percpetion.
Knowledge is in many repsects a hinderence.
I am apart of your mind and you are a part of my mind.
Reality is relative.
point out that really when it comes to the big questions there is not much diffrence between the two. (Between Religion and Science)
Remember all truth is relative.
or i could walk outside onto my beach and say look it is flat and i would be correct too.(About the world being Flat)

Yes it is(evolution) a religion. You believe it in faith. Please produce the "missing link" ? Even the highest ups know that evolution isn't true based on hidden science that tells us that other dimensions exist. And if they do exist than we are much more than just a machine (the whole basis upon which modern science is built). So the burden of proof is still on you "evolutionites". But you will produce no proof because around 12,000 years ago we had our DNA interfered with and an entire new species emerged that science "thinks" was due to evolution. What a serious mistake and to see all of you "true believers in evolution" parrot this stuff like it's fact shows the amount of control and programming in place. You so entirely wrong it's not funny. Carry on...with your venom now...
