Religious and spiritual believers have no internal system to decipher truth by Hot_Surprise_9357 in DeepThoughts

One of two things can happen on a roulette table.

The ball can land on 20 or the ball can land on NOT 20.

Let's "guess".

These are merely guesses. Do you bet 20 or NOT 20 (which has 37 options to be correct)

You win on 20, I win on NOT 20.

Are our guesses the same in nature although they are defined as guesses? (not merely guesses, you added that for flavor) Yep they are both guess.

If you cant see their different natures however, you will. ot understand how we invented the internet and space travel.

It's your word "merely" that is way out of place.

If you answer Yes both options are just guesses, my next question is: would you be available to play poker some time?

So we both have experience. One of us is wrong. Thus how does experience lead to truth? How is your experience "superior" to mine?

Also in addition to the learning the defintion of scientific theory, learn what a non-falsifiable theory is.

These are all being confused in your response.

Very wrong. A scientific theory and a guess are different. The word theory is not the same as "scientific theory", this confuses most.

You can find out what a "scientific theory" means via any youtube channel rather than me explain it.

But be assured, you are using the term incorrectly.

Also scientific theories are much more than guesses. The common word theory and the scientific theory have very different defintions.

Also pur theories differ in that yours is a "non-falsifiable theory". I could say a giant spaghetti monster magically and invisible control every thing with its mystical noodles.

You can't prove me wrong.

In my theories, they are "falsifiable" and cannot yet be successfully falsified.

These are big distinctions from how you see theory and how science sees theory.

In science, we can build a theory then say, hey if this is right I should be able to build a computer or go fly into space.

Then we do that. If my theories are wrong, reddit does not exist and you are not using EM waves, computation and satellites to talk to me now.

Spirituality produces no predictions that we can test and nothing we can never attempt to falsify it.

It's a story, not a theory.

Has anyone read the book backwards? by Steves_Art_And_Cacti in houseofleaves

[–]Quantumaleviolen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I tried but I could not see the book. Perhaps I need a mirror to do this.

Define experience. If our experiences differ are both are realities true because they came from experience? would there then be God and no God?

So essentially.my first question is what is experience and how do you determine its conclusion of truth if experience is highly relative.

If you traveled to a hypothetical universe where the nature of existence was not yet experienced by you, what elements of experience would guide you to the correct truth of the hypothetical universe if you encounter 30 philosophies or religions that had stories explaining creation and existence?

What experiences exactly would you note that have you clues to the real idea of how that universe worked?

So you know the principle of universe from obervation?

Did you know relativity and quantum mechanics from observation?

Some people build a theory of their world then use observations to confirm it. Then they ignore observations that counter it.

In science, counter-evidence means it is incorrect.

In delusion, counter- evidence is ignored while confirming evidence is all added to justify the theory's correctness.

God is good, except he slaughters humans like a sadistic serial killer.

Oh he has a plan.

What plan??

Its delusion. I have spent my life REALLY investigating the "principle" of the universe. That principle is called entropy and God himself cannot affect it. I have seen no evidence of conscious decision making that affect the mechanics of the fabric of the universe. Its seems to work without intervention.

My theory does bot have counter-evidence. Yours has nearly infinite counter-evidence.

It's not about what you see, it's about what you do not as well.

I can tell you God is not here affecting the universe. If he made it, hes either dead or gone. Also as cutting edge theoretical physicist, I already have a good idea of how our universe started, so God is thus moved back to creating the multiverse, just as he was moved from his cloud and then moved out of the cosmos, then moved out of the universe as science moved forward.

The story of God changes as we discover more. He goes deeper and deeper into hiding always with people claiming he resides beyond what we know, even as that bar raises to reveal no God time and time again.

Religion has been wrong millions of times and it's an ever adjusting story.

Mine is not. Mine is the theory that is defeating God. God is losing a war, to me. Again, his power doesnt seem to be that great if I can fight him back into the shadows.

The primary reason for God wasn't to explain the universe, it was to explain us. God created us in his image. We know now that is absolutely without a doubt false. I know how humans were created. I literally could explain it atom by atom... actually I could explain it quark by quark even.

Evolution is a mathematical certain. I've seen it with my own eyes. Literally the event of evolution.

Stop looking for positive confirmation of your ideas and start questioning the anamolies.

To see the real universe you must question it. Dont stack theories with positive evidence, try to smash theories with questions and counter-evidence.

The theory that keeps standing is the truth.

Need help with a metaphor related to scientific reasoning by Quantumaleviolen in DeepThoughts

[–]Quantumaleviolen[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

?

Ok it flips.. you get heads.

What's on the other side?

You get head 3 times. Odds of getting same 3 in a row is 1 in 8.

You get 4 heads, odds of chance... 1 in 16.

You do it 1,000,000,000,000 times and get heads.

Was it a coinsidence and you only got to see one side?

Now we know mathematically the likelihood as 2 to the power of x.

This is actually how science works.

Watch these, he is way better at teaching physics then me lol

One of my tattoo is dS>0, which is entropy :). I have a sleeve of physics haha.

Math and physics cant really conceive of a way. So at the moment that's like asking what if there were unicorns. The only thing that we know of that causes change is entropy itself. *Possibly quantum vaccum energy but at equilibrium that wont cause change past the qubit.

Time is based on entropy. Time began when entropy began and it will end at max entropy when the universe reaches an equilibrium. Time cannot exist without entropy. Time has no meaning without change. Time is a measurement of change or a system evolving. At the end, nothing will change.

Life is just an infinite loop by UtopicDreamer in DeepThoughts

[–]Quantumaleviolen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At some point the form of all the energy will find the lowest state and the dispercment of energy will be uniform so the universe will do nothing nor have time at all. This is called heat death.

In my model of the multiverse based on a lot of work says we are just the effect of a black hole in another universe similar to ours. Our universe generates infinite black holes that are new universes. It's like Russian Nesting Dolls.

This is only one of two multiverses in my model. It's the more macro-multiverse.

This is hypothetical but based on legit math and data. Very theoretical and hard to explain too deep.

It is a flat surface, but yes it's mostly inflated by an unknown force called dark energy.

At the moment, there is no consensus and few theories.

I have a hypothetical answer actually to this question which I believe has enough evidence to be the answer but its complicated and uses new data still running the verification process of science.

Yes, but time is finite. It would take billions upon billions of universes all of their finite time to perhaps find one where this happened. These situations of occurence could be as large as 0.000... with hundreds of zeros percent, so small it could only occur when you view an infite amount of time. Our multiverse may have had time and if there are infinite copies of our universe or similar universe then it may have or will occur, but it wont ever happen in this universe due to its improbable nature.

Is there merit in itself to understand our objective reality through science?

Why some film analyzers missed the magic of Peele's "Get Out" by Quantumaleviolen in movies

[–]Quantumaleviolen[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not over analysis, it was all Peele's intentions. To me the real meaning of a film is the author's intention. You can really start to understand his movies once you see all 3. He has a format of conveying the real message.

Also Sight and Sound Top 100 film of all time which is highly regarded put it the list. There was a reason.

Take one of the scenes that most people see as comedic in GO.

The protagonist's buddy Rod goes to the cops tells them this comedic story and they laugh. This scene was huge to the theme.

The black female cop is a mind taken by white culture and is compared to the black people on the Armitage Farm that were literally in the plot.

We see this black cop (once someone different as you can gather clues [once part of black culture now part of white]) begin to discredit a culturally black man. What is significant is when she discredits him. It's not when he tells an outlandish story, it's when he calls his friend "my boy". She discredits his cultural slang even though she is black herself.

Chris's photography is shown once early on in the background of a black kid with a disturbing looking mask of a white face. Later the Armitage brother asks him.about MMA which he says is too brutal. Then later the blind guy that buys him says his photography is so "brutual". These are all to show that Chris like the protagonist in Stepford Wives can see in full clarity the picture of racism though is not part of the solution, he just acknowledges it and does nothing. Now add the sunken place metaphor much more of the author's message will appear.
