citizenschallengev4 replied to the topic Is Reality “Intelligent”? in the forum Science and Technology 3 years, 6 months ago
Let take a look at the beginnings of all this.
Is âintelligenceâ a property of reality?
As example, consider the laws of physics.  These laws are obviously real, but they donât exist in the sense of having weight, mass, shape, form etc. The laws of physics are not a property of any particular thing within reality, but rather a property of reali…

I see what @didirius is getting at. Though, those terms are characteristics of “stuff”.
It would be like turning an axis of orientation on it’s side.

Reducing the impact on the biosphere by reducing greenhouse gas composition in the atmosphere by replacing fosile power plant with non-fosile power plants for the stationary part. And for the mobile part keep using fosile fuel until it is replaced with something that has better physical properties.

@didirius  “This is most basic scientific method. Science doesnât care about belief it only cares about evidence.”
Indeed, evidence drives our provisional current understanding. Â Better evidence leads to a more complete understanding that never reaches ultimate certainty, because there’s aways more details and facts to discover and more lea…[Read more]

About that dotard you mentioned (I may have a knowledge gap) but I donât remember the U.S. ever having someone quite like hitler, with the soul intention to industrially exterminate and wipe out entire cultures.
Yes, you do have a knowledge gap for even Jewish people could see the similarities between the Orange creature (dotard) and H…[Read more]

I would like to stay if youâd like to have me. Even though Iâm not Indian.

I thank you for the chance to undo the misunderstandings. I hope I was sufficiently accurate by clearing them without creating new ones.
You’re welcome, but I still get a feeling there is a language difference, as though English isn’t your first language. You did clear up your thoughts on the matter though.
English is not my native…

I didn’t say it was going to happen. Â In fact from the continued lack of mass interest, it’s obvious nothing of the kind is going to happen. Â I’m just talking from a Physical Reality stand point, it’s what has to happen for current trends to change. Â Why do you think I’ve lost all faith in the future and it’s quite literally one day at a ti…[Read more]

Punishement for punishement sake wouldnât restor my son back to live before it happend. â Outside of future prevention by deterrence i see no use for revenge.
Maybe, but wouldn’t you want such a person off the street so that he doesn’t do it again to someone else or do you have no altruism at all?

@didirius    No, itâs more like emotions getting overwritten
What an interesting thought.
I’m trying to wrap my head around it, but I’m having trouble with what your emotions are “overwritten” with. Â Can you explain it any better? Â What is overwriting your emotions? Â Or am I looking at it backwards?

@didirius. Â Â Â I myself am somewhat separated from emotions and quite fond of it.
I don’t know if you mean you are fond of emotions, or fond of not having emotions?
About that not having emotion, is that something like the Star Trek’s character Spock?
I myself am a passionate kinda guy. Â Gotta work to keep them emotions in check. Â Si…[Read more]

Once upon a time, I asked myself the question: âWhy is something (like killing/murder) right or wrong?â. Till this day I couldnât come up with an answer, so I donât consider any action strictly right nor wrong, good/bad; adequate or not, yes of course; but not right or wrong.
So you think murdering another human being is alright…[Read more]

Interesting read.
Good responses.
@didirius, don’t dismiss @morgankane01‘s #345625 too fast.  It’s worth mulling over.  As were Lausten, and W4u’s comments.
All I have to add, is to share a link to an interesting read that you make me remember – written by Isaac Asimov and I think it’s somewhat related to your questions.
