I do not and have never said, 'the necessity of cause and effect is creation', nor the rest of what you say and claim here.
I do not even know of any 'main claim' 'of creation is it is novel', let alone would I take any account for any such thing.
I did, and what I noticed is you are, still, are long way of understanding what I have actually said and meant here.
What you assuming and believe I am saying and meaning is a long way off, on a lot of occasions, and explains, partly, why your views are so far astray from what I have actually said and meant.
Your OP has said nothing about evolution and nothing about creation.
If you cannot be bothered to see what the opening post is meaning and referring to, then I cannot be bothered making any more effort for you.
This sounds reasonable to me, though I will explore it a bit, further down, in terms of discreteness.
Same as above. I wouldn't use the word creation for a couple of reasons: one made already in the thread, but a second in that to me it has connotations of an original Creation event that started everything rolling. If it is intended this way, then I'd want to see some explanation of the beginning. If not, I'd choose another word.Every re-action causes, or creates, another reaction, that is; Creation, Itself.
Similar reaction.Every created thing, or reaction, evolves, interacting with other created, and evolving, things, causing continuous more actions, and re-actions, always, causing and/or creating Creation, Itself.
Here we have almost moved to a global view: all of matter in this process. So, the earlier discreteness seems to be part of a more global flow. And I think that's a better starting point: a global flow. I am not saying Age is talking about a global (universal) flow, but it sounds a bit more like that here and that connects with what I'd want to explore in relation to the earlier statements.The continual action of matter always inter-acting with itself, and thus always creating or causing just one continual re-action, is evolution, itself, in an always-constant process of, and in, Creation, Itself.
I don't know what is meant by freely. It sounds like the reactions are free somehow. Are they?Matter being able to move about freely,
It seems like at the quantum level its not so clear what is space between and what is matter, with things sort of in many places, sort of nowhere, pinging in and out of existence, etc.because of the distance or space between and around matter,
If it is eternal and has been evolving the whole time, it seems to me there must be cycles. That's intuitive. Because, here, in our corner of the universe, there has been a trend, at least recently in universe terms, towards complexity in self-relation. And that seems like it still has a long way to go. At least in the last 13 billion or whatever is not posited from when things were fairly simple locally at least.is an eternal process where inter-action of matter with itself is one eternal reaction, which what allows the evolution of things to happen and occur.
Going back to the beginning of this post, it seems to me that if we focus on tiny discrete 'parts', one acting on the other and then the other reacts, it leads to this kind of discreteness that seems misleading to me. Those parts now reaction also had momentum or something 'going' already and probably affected what affected them. And then all these 'contacts' would be happening in the being touched by the effects of other things less nearby with with affecting fields of different kinds. I am not saying the premises in the beginning are denying this way of looking at it, but I think it's misleading to start with them. I think it's better to start with this whole things flow, rather than a reductionist sort-of particle view of things. Or already discrete things impacting each other, even if they're not particle sized.This always happening action/reaction process is just how all things are creation, through evolution, and just what the 'Creation' word has been meaning and referring to, exactly.
It is, literally, the Universe Creating Itself, through an evolutionary process, always HERE-NOW.
I have no problem with any of the above and accept it as true and accurate.
I do have a problem here as I do not see matter and space as the 'fundamental' base. The problem is that neither matter nor space has any power to initiate creation or evolution. If matter has already been created, it can not evolve to create itself because it initially possesses no ability to be active -- no motion. This is the mistake that most people make, and then they find themselves looking for a "God" or intelligent designer or some other way to create intent to make a 'happening'.
Age wrote: ↑Sat Mar 16, 2024 10:44 am The action of when matter interacts with itself causes a reaction, and thus a new creation.
This always occurring action/reaction process is how all things/the Universe, Itself, evolves, and how the Universe, Itself, is creating Itself.
The evolving-creation process that the Universe, Itself, is in is eternal.
No one is able to name a thing that was not created. So, the word 'creation' just means or refers to the Universe, or all things. And, obviously, all things change in ways, shape, or form, or in other words 'evolve'. Thus, all created things evolve. The Universe, therefore, is creating Itself HERE-NOW always, through evolution.

Now, obviously, absolutely every thing was, is, and will be 'created', and every one of these created things keeps 'changing', or 'gradually developing', which is just 'evolution' by another word.
Therefore, the Universe, Itself, is in 'Creation', always, and was not 'created', ever. The living, and always continually creating, Universe, Itself, is also always evolving and/or always 'gradually developing'.
You have some interesting ideas, but I suspect that some of them are going to upset some of the members. It is clear to me that you are a holistic thinker, which means two things -- you are probably exceptionally bright and you see things from a perspective that few share.

Age is saying that mere cause and effect automatically is creation and evolution.

The foundation of the universe is motion which sounds like an oxymoron. We think of a foundation as being solid, not moving, but motion creates matter and space, and then everything else follows. The motion/activity never quits, and intent is not even required. What feeds this constant motion? Energy. Itself.
The physical, the mental, and the spiritual ALL interact with themselves and each other. IMO

Yes. I fully agree with this. Consider that at the level below matter and space, where there is only motion/energy, there is no awareness. Awareness can not exist without matter, time and space. In order for awareness to exist two points are required. One point for something that is aware and one point that something is aware of, which means that matter is required for the points and space is required to separate them. Because space and time are interrelated, time would also come into existence with matter and space. This would allow for change to what is essentially eternity on the level of motion/energy. IMO

This statement is just plain rude. If you have nothing of value to add to this thread, you could stop posting here. If you insist on posting here, but only wish to insult members, call people names, etc., then your posts have no value. So far in this thread, you have called Age a liar 67 times -- I counted -- and you repeated other insults. I have already reported your posts, and will not accept the abuse that you have heaped on Age. Why do you think that I stopped posting for 14 pages? I had hoped that some members would get bored of abusing other members and leave this thread, but you seem to think that abusing the original poster is how you make a point or how you are supposed to debate.
I may have to stop posting in this thread. If I really feel the need to communicate with Age, I can always use the PM system.

To you.
Are there, really, 'corners', 'of the Universe, Itself'?
In a 'limited temporal universe' there may well be a 'recently', perspective. However, in the, actual, Universe terms there is only the HERE-NOW. This is because the Universe, Itself, is eternal. And, 'recently' is a redundant term and phrase, in relation to the Universe, Itself.Iwannaplato wrote: ↑Sat Mar 16, 2024 3:15 pm there has been a trend, at least recently in universe terms,

Okay, and thank you for sharing this with me, and us, here.
Was there some previous view or presumption that 'matter' and/or 'space' has some power to initiate any thing?
Human bodies have already been created. And, according to, and following on from, your logic or claim here, human bodies can not evolve, right?
What mistake?
Okay.
But, what is 'in motion' if it is not 'matter' to begin with?
I agree 'intent' is not required, which is one reason why I never introduced the 'intent' word here. And, since 'intent' is not even required, there is absolutely no use bringing that word into the discussion here. It would be a bit like saying, and 'chocolate cake' is not even required, when I never brought up nor introduced the 'chocolate cake' words anywhere here. Again, someone else introduced the 'intent' word to try to deflect and fool and deceive readers here.
Now, you will have to explain how 'energy', itself, exists.
I do not disagree at all.
But, saying, 'consider that at the level below matter and space', implies that there is a level below matter and space.
