'Life', Itself, is never what you say It seems like to you here.Gary Childress wrote: ↑Wed Mar 20, 2024 10:32 amSometimes, life seems like a game of one-upmanship or king of the hill.Age wrote: ↑Wed Mar 20, 2024 9:31 amThis is absolutely False, Wrong, Inaccurate, and Incorrect, as well.
When will these people, and this one more so, going to learn to seek out and obtain actual clarity before they make Wrong and Incorrect conclusions?
Once again, if they did, then they would not be so Wrong, so often.
"iwannaplato" is absolutely delusional here.This one even claims that, 'you can see 'this' clearly asserted', yet 'this' have never ever been alluded to, let alone so-called 'clearly asserted'.Iwannaplato wrote: ↑Wed Mar 20, 2024 8:55 am You can see this clearly asserted or unavoidably implicit (as in the post above) in many of his posts and, ironically, even though he does not consider himself human or one of us, he still manages to judge, criticize and ridicule humans.
This one is showing and proving just how 'delusional' one can and does become when they presume, believe, and/or conclude things before they seek out, obtain, and gain actual clarity first.
LOL What has this got to do with anything here?
"bahman" claimed that the whole Universe would just stop without some 'substance', which is called 'time'.
Not providing any answer that proves that there is a 'substance' called 'time' is
Therefore, making the claim without ever providing a 'substantial' answer that 'time', itself, is even a 'substance' is just a Truly stupid, or imbecilic thing to do.
This is NOT 'judging', 'criticizing', nor 'ridiculing' any one.
This is JUST showing that this one is CLOSED.
Any 'judging', 'criticizing', or 'ridiculing' here is just what exists in the imagination of some individual human beings only.
Again, I will suggest one 'looks at' and 'reads' 'my words' not from a prejudiced, presumptive, nor pre-existing views/beliefs perspective.The kind of judgment that you are referring to here exists in your's and maybe some other's imagination only.Iwannaplato wrote: ↑Wed Mar 20, 2024 8:55 am He did stop random capitalization, but the judgment, etc. continues.Once again, this one has, again, gone on some sort of tangent, and just getting further and further away from the actual Truth because of its pre-existing False, Wrong, or Incorrect beliefs and/or presumptions hereIwannaplato wrote: ↑Wed Mar 20, 2024 8:55 am Perhaps this is a trait that is poignantly human. To see yourself as having transcended or being transcendent from humans, and, actually being quite human after all.It does not matter, because your assumptions and beliefs here are, once again, Wrong.Iwannaplato wrote: ↑Wed Mar 20, 2024 8:55 am How many humans have fallen from this not so high place.
How 'life' seems like to you, sometimes, is only because of how you are thinking or feeling, at those times.
What does it matter if you human beings are living in a simulation? The simulation is still within the Universe, Itself, which is obviously Real, and True.Gary Childress wrote: ↑Wed Mar 20, 2024 10:32 am Other times life seems like something else entirely. Sometimes it even seems like we're all living in some kind of simulation. I saw a clip where Neil Degrasse Tyson speculated that we could all be living in a simulation. He gave it 50/50 odds of being true. David Chalmers also has mentioned something similar about living in a simulation I believe.
What would that matter? Whoever or whatever created 'the simulation', within the Universe, Itself, was, or still is, conscious.Gary Childress wrote: ↑Wed Mar 20, 2024 10:32 am I saw Brian Greene (spelling?) talking about being a "Boltzmann Brain". And I have to ask myself, is it possible for a "simulation" to be conscious? I know I'm conscious. but can a simulation be conscious?
Well, if you are living in a simulation, then you are, partly anyway, realizing it, or presuming it anyway.Gary Childress wrote: ↑Wed Mar 20, 2024 10:32 am Or is the simulation some sort of facade that we are all living in and don't realize it?
There is actually nothing 'odd' about anything 'right now'. Although there is obviously something going on.Gary Childress wrote: ↑Wed Mar 20, 2024 10:32 am It reminds me of the episode of Star Trek the Next Generation where the "holodeck" goes haywire and the characters in it becomes real. There's something going on in this world. I don't know what, but there's something odd about a lot of things right now to me.
Now, what is actually going on is the Universe, Itself, is in a state of constant-change, always.
Those people, just like you, are just having 'your views' manipulated, controlled, affected, or influenced by what the boy has previously experienced. If, for example, you were brought up in a time when there were none of those episodes nor none of those people talking about 'simulations', then you would not be thinking and talking like you are here, 'right now'.Gary Childress wrote: ↑Wed Mar 20, 2024 10:32 am And, honestly, I don't know what to think or do. It's weird. I mean do Neil Tyson, David Chalmers and Brian Greene actually believe their musings? Or is there something about their musings which tells of something beyond.
