im sorry, did i convey something wrongly? i do not profess to know much so any explanation as to why I've gone wrong would be most welcomed :)

sweet deal, i think so too. so we can agree that it matter would be the 'fundamental' here. in the sense that energy could not exist without it... I am kinda leading up to a new question, but this one needed to be answered before hand. so according to my illustration, like the house, energy...

all of them :) i simply want to know if energy exists alone in any form other than when it inhabbits a physical body? sorry that my analogies seem so useless, it was just to explain what i mentby fundamental and emergent. thanks

true, cause and effect relate to process more than anything but the idea of fundamentals and emergents follow the same train of thought, being; fundamental is the cause and emergent the effect. the emergent cannot exist without the fundamental, the effect cannot exist without the cause. so I...

the foundation would be the bricks. basically the idea behind fundamentals and emergents is a branching out on the idea of cause and effect. so we could say (keeping to the picture i gave) the bricks could exist without the house, whereas the house could not exist without the bricks. in...

as far as I am aware there is only the definition from the dictionary :) put simply, fundamental meaning "of the foundation" and emergent meaning "occurring as a consequence" for example if we take a brick house, the bricks would fundamental and the house would be the consequence of that...

what i'd like to know is simply put this way: is energy fundamental or emergent? but more importantly, this is a fact or fiction question seeing as they (fundamental and emergent) are oposites, so can we all agree on one answer? what i mean is whatever your "opinion" at the end of the day...
