Rade, unless you can show any evidence at all that there actually IS a 'the world' beyond the your own subjective world within your own mind, why don't you 'save it for church'! Is it your religion? Where your personal 'belief' is sufficient 'evidence' to maintain that 'belief'? You jump up and...

Right on the money! Yes, yes, yes! And Rade, I understand science well, though I did mis-speak when I used the word 'prove'. Please feel free to substitute the word 'evidence' where I said 'prove'. That is what I meant. It would appear that there is a large segment of quantum physicists who...

This sounds tangential to me. As there is a definite limited block of time to work within, the switching would have to get progressively faster and faster the closer it drew to the two min mark, in a seemingly tangential fashion. Always closer but never reaching, achieving greater than light...

Didja miss this part? I will, to a point, agree with you in that I'll concede that the notion of 'cause and effect' has apparent 'existence', though, solely within the very subjective 'dream of life'. So if you are of the opinion that any 'dream' is 'existing reality', then so would be 'cause...

Les, here is another perspective closer to your own than mine. What becomes of your 'cause and effect' within 'this' context? Excerpt from: http://montalk.net/science/74/-time-reversible-or-irreversible" Classical physics says time is reversible because its laws hold true whether time...

No you aren't... But, instead of responding line by line and getting nowhere, I shall first offer a short quote by Richard Feynman from "Genius: The Life and Science of Richard Feynman". Consider this just one 'gem' from a constantly expanding diadem of perspectival sources testifying to...

Les, with all due respect, the topic of this thread is a request to 'define physicality'. With respect to the threadstarter, you in this case (!), I'm ducking out after this post to make room for other interesting perspectives. This is not the place for me to teach you about 'cause and...

Hiya Les, Before I saw this post re; to me, I read your response to Beauty's post and I felt like mentioning something about your response, and now that I think about it, this seems to be a regularly recurring 'problem'. After reading the absolute nothing that you offered in responce to my...

Les, I'm afraid that your challenge shall go unanswered as I see no linear order inherent here. I see simultaneously arising events and aspects of events. I'm not going to get into the whole obsolete notion of 'cause and effect' again. It's comfortable water under the bridge. Time to move on...

All that is perceived and conceived within mind is commonly accepted as our universe.

Are you saying that whatever 'follows' the 'collapsing waves' (quantons) is to be considered 'existence'? Whether purely mental illusionary 'concepts' or 'material'? That we have 'existence' within our dreams? That seems to be the common understanding considering 'usage' of the term. I can...

Thank you. To whom are you addressing the question? I can create a hologram that thumps his chest and makes the same assertion. So? I cannot make the same statement. Perhaps we have different interpertations of the term 'exist'? Thats why were here, to find if 'existence' can be 'defined'...

Can you really? To me? I must find out what you mean by declaring that 'you exist'? Right, I have no experience with what is called a 'spirit', in that context. If you do, perhaps you could explain it to me? Not knowing what a 'spirit' is, or whether or not there actually 'is' such a...

Once upon a time, Rade, science was just as sure that the Earth was flat, that the Earth was at the center of the universe, that 'effect' was 'caused', that gravity and time were constants and rotten meat transmogrified into maggots and on, ad nauseum. So, I'm not all that impressed with what...

Mugsby, your post is both touching and poignant. I understand what you are saying and can only offer a word about what has worked for me. I've had 5 boys and there are grandchildren, etc... and I fully realize that in 1,000 years, or perhaps 10, who knows, there might be not a trace of even a...
