"I don't have an explanation; therefore, there must not be one." No, this is NOT good science.

People who make this argument "act" as if they don't understand the deterministic argument against free will (though it must often be supposed that they secretly do). It is fallacious to say that truly believing there's no free will means you must become an inert nihilist who just shrugs if an 18-wheeler is coming at you in traffic. As it would be to claim knowing the truth of the earth's relationship to the sun means we must stop refering to where the sun is in the sky. It's a useful, practical illusion. We know the truth, but we can't perceive it. There's no way to "act as if" our planet were hurtling through space around the sun while also spinning, though we know that to be the case. As a free-will denier, you still react. You still have morals. You still have desires. Those things can still be damn important to you. You just didn't choose them. And you couldn't have had any others. I suspect Chomsky knows this and is merely playing logic games bc he dislikes the implications of there not being free will (in terms of deservingness, achievement, praise, legacy, and other crucial elements of the self concept).

Federico's Foundation is funding this fundamental research into quantum mechanics. The Observer Effect th-cam.com/video/Um_Kuk0lEjg/w-d-xo.html

Where do animals, plants and other living creatures fit in with this TOE?

This is called physics of spiritual mechanics. Alas,it’s missing experiential depth in its expression. Next time chiefs from the other realms need to train a poet. This is very mechanical,I would rather look for an escape from this recycling multidimensional factory.

Michael Levin has superb ideas about how we should evolve with the modern technology. But whenever he talks about humans back pain problem and humans should not have back pain problem in future humans, I think that even current times humans don't need to suffer from back pain. Given some exceptions, this problem is a symptom of improper, inadequate nutrition provided to the body or improper movement of the body. Humans have choice to fix back pain problem by choosing proper exercise, proper nutrition.

Quantum is What if?

To be sure…humanity is a paradox 🚀👽🤡

Listening to Federico faggin, for some time now, took me to understendig reality in ways that question the relevance of my self 🙃 I can't express how thankfull I am, Mr faggin, for helping me understand. I consider my self lucky. Thank You ❤

The Fermi Paradox begins with an assumption that is totally made up to begin with. Why would the system render so many stars? A couple of hundred would probably have been enough to observe.

Federico is talking stupidities. "Electron" is not elementary at all. Everything is made of something. Even a state, a field, etc is made of something. A computer, a machine, a robot, etc can have tastes and opinions exactly like a person. A taste, an opinion , a subjective opinion, etc are all real processes that are recorded, coded as "something", understood and expressed by any brain structure, either natural or artificial. A taste, an opinion, a conscious thought, etc are all real processes expressed as conventions of the recorded material comparisons. Etc. Consciousness is a precise macro process, a real macro functional. Once you create this real functional in a computer ( through the regular and also through very specific hardware and software ), consciousness is present right away. The rest of Frederico is just useless verbosity, sorry.

Never the less, free will is an illusion. It simply cannot be other wise because of our biology. Get used to it.

i do not buy the cotton candy philosophy

according to tom DECEPTION is key. We are being ooled by the system. Is it evil? Tibetans now ths by te way and they train for death. or tom to say we should ust follow what some AI tells us is crazy . i do not trust the system

I think free will exists on the same level as love, joy, peace, family, community, consciousness, etc. I can tell you I have art, music, poetry, literature, etc all on my computer, and someone else can say I don't because on another level, it is all ones and zeros.

I wonder if the gentleman would agree that Quanta, Qualia, and Causa are the three pillars of scientific epistemology, and that they are defined respectively by the Principles of Locality, Identity, and Causality. I think part of the upheaval that science has experienced ever since QM was incepted is that the first two Principles, of Locality and Identity, are proving occasional phenomena at best, rather than Universal maxims. It may be that a thing is not always in a particular place, or that a thing is not always equal to itself. So now we have awkward words like "wavicle" and "superposition", because we went into it with imprecise concepts about how reality works. Causality seems to be holding up 'though. I haven't seen anything credibly suggest any temporally non-linear interactions between things and events. Things might not have to be strictly here or there, this or that, but they do seem to have to occur post hoc ergo proper hoc, even if we humans confuse the causal relationship.

I would say "their 'quantumness' averages out," rather than that it "cancels out".

I came for the hilarious name, I stayed for the science.

Professor Robert Sapolsky's brilliant books, "Behave, Human Behavior at Our Best and Worst" and "Determined, Life Without Free Will" are very interesting because he looks at the question with scientific rational reality rather than philosophical gobbledegook. There is no neuron for free will. It's "turtles all the way down". We can find, identity and determine how and why we did whatever we did but we can only discover probabilities of future action by previous reasons for past behavior, all of which is unconscious anyway because the amygdala has already performed the behavior before the prefrontal cortex even gets its idea to reach for its pants.

Isaiah 24 - King James Version 24 Behold, the Lord maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof. 2 And it shall be, as with the people, so with the priest; as with the servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with the taker of usury, so with the giver of usury to him. 3 The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the Lord hath spoken this word. 4 The earth mourneth and fadeth away, the world languisheth and fadeth away, the haughty people of the earth do languish. 5 The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant. 6 Therefore hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left. 7 The new wine mourneth, the vine languisheth, all the merryhearted do sigh. 8 The mirth of tabrets ceaseth, the noise of them that rejoice endeth, the joy of the harp ceaseth. 9 They shall not drink wine with a song; strong drink shall be bitter to them that drink it. 10 The city of confusion is broken down: every house is shut up, that no man may come in. 11 There is a crying for wine in the streets; all joy is darkened, the mirth of the land is gone. 12 In the city is left desolation, and the gate is smitten with destruction. 13 When thus it shall be in the midst of the land among the people, there shall be as the shaking of an olive tree, and as the gleaning grapes when the vintage is done. 14 They shall lift up their voice, they shall sing for the majesty of the Lord, they shall cry aloud from the sea. 15 Wherefore glorify ye the Lord in the fires, even the name of the Lord God of Israel in the isles of the sea. 16 From the uttermost part of the earth have we heard songs, even glory to the righteous. But I said, My leanness, my leanness, woe unto me! the treacherous dealers have dealt treacherously; yea, the treacherous dealers have dealt very treacherously. 17 Fear, and the pit, and the snare, are upon thee, O inhabitant of the earth. 18 And it shall come to pass, that he who fleeth from the noise of the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that cometh up out of the midst of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for the windows from on high are open, and the foundations of the earth do shake. 19 The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved, the earth is moved exceedingly. 20 The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again. 21 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall punish the host of the high ones that are on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth. 22 And they shall be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in the pit, and shall be shut up in the prison, and after many days shall they be visited. 23 Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, when the Lord of hosts shall reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before his ancients gloriously. Isaiah 42 King James Version 42 Behold my servant, whom I uphold; mine elect, in whom my soul delighteth; I have put my spirit upon him: he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles. 2 He shall not cry, nor lift up, nor cause his voice to be heard in the street. 3 A bruised reed shall he not break, and the smoking flax shall he not quench: he shall bring forth judgment unto truth. 4 He shall not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set judgment in the earth: and the isles shall wait for his law. 5 Thus saith God the Lord, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein: 6 I the Lord have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles; 7 To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house. 8 I am the Lord: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images. 9 Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them. 10 Sing unto the Lord a new song, and his praise from the end of the earth, ye that go down to the sea, and all that is therein; the isles, and the inhabitants thereof. 11 Let the wilderness and the cities thereof lift up their voice, the villages that Kedar doth inhabit: let the inhabitants of the rock sing, let them shout from the top of the mountains. 12 Let them give glory unto the Lord, and declare his praise in the islands. 13 The Lord shall go forth as a mighty man, he shall stir up jealousy like a man of war: he shall cry, yea, roar; he shall prevail against his enemies. 14 I have long time holden my peace; I have been still, and refrained myself: now will I cry like a travailing woman; I will destroy and devour at once. 15 I will make waste mountains and hills, and dry up all their herbs; and I will make the rivers islands, and I will dry up the pools. 16 And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them. 17 They shall be turned back, they shall be greatly ashamed, that trust in graven images, that say to the molten images, Ye are our gods. 18 Hear, ye deaf; and look, ye blind, that ye may see. 19 Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my messenger that I sent? who is blind as he that is perfect, and blind as the Lord's servant? 20 Seeing many things, but thou observest not; opening the ears, but he heareth not. 21 The Lord is well pleased for his righteousness' sake; he will magnify the law, and make it honourable. 22 But this is a people robbed and spoiled; they are all of them snared in holes, and they are hid in prison houses: they are for a prey, and none delivereth; for a spoil, and none saith, Restore. 23 Who among you will give ear to this? who will hearken and hear for the time to come? 24 Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? did not the Lord, he against whom we have sinned? for they would not walk in his ways, neither were they obedient unto his law. 25 Therefore he hath poured upon him the fury of his anger, and the strength of battle: and it hath set him on fire round about, yet he knew not; and it burned him, yet he laid it not to heart.

Thomas (11) Jesus says: (1) “This heaven will pass away, and the (heaven) above it will pass away. (2) And the dead are not alive, and the living will not die. (3) In the days when you consumed what was dead, you made it alive. When you are in the light, what will you do? (4) On the day when you were one, you became two. But when you become two, what will you do?” New Heavens And New Earth Isaiah 65:17 “For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth, and the former things shall not be remembered or come into mind. Revelation 20 Blessed and holy is the one who shares in the first resurrection! Over such the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and they will reign with him for a thousand years. Hebrews 9:27 And just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment, Hebrews 8:13 In speaking of a new covenant, he makes the first one obsolete. And what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away. John 14:2-3 In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. Revelation 21:1-27 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God. He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.” And he who was seated on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.” Also he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.” ... 2 Peter 3:13 But according to his promise we are waiting for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells. Revelation 21:1 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. Isaiah 66:22 “For as the new heavens and the new earth that I make shall remain before me, says the Lord, so shall your offspring and your name remain. Revelation 21:27 But nothing unclean will ever enter it, nor anyone who does what is detestable or false, but only those who are written in the Lamb's book of life. 1 Peter 1:4 To an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you, 1 Corinthians 2:9 But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him”- Revelation 21:23 And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and its lamp is the Lamb. Revelation 21:3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God. Matthew 24:34 Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place. 1 John 2:17 And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever. 2 Peter 3:11 Since all these things are thus to be dissolved, what sort of people ought you to be in lives of holiness and godliness, 2 Corinthians 5:1 For we know that if the tent that is our earthly home is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. Psalm 37:29 The righteous shall inherit the land and dwell upon it forever. Revelation 21:22-23 And I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb. And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and its lamp is the Lamb. Revelation 21:22 And I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb. John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. Revelation 21:6 And he said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of life without payment. 2 Corinthians 5:8 Yes, we are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord.

"Science" has in fact produced multiple lines of evidence suggesting that in certain highly-controlled situations, "decisions" can be made anywhere from 300 milliseconds up to several seconds before human subjects are consciously aware of having done so. I don't believe these observations can rule out the kind of "free won't" manifestation of free will which Benjamin Libet identified in his classic experiments, but I also do not believe they equate to science being mute on the subject as Professor Chomsky seems to claim here.

Interesting but not compelling. I must confess to also finding it a bit glib, sorry. To me this landss like a somewhat forced, presumptuous over-projection of our current understanding of computation and info-thermodynamic-type assumptions. To be fair, I've never fully grasped the allure and logic of the simulation hypothesis. I can see how if I were to become convinced of that, then this would hang together more.

A thought/question about Reincarnation within Don's Headset framework- would this mean that a particular avatar of the One would hold some semblance of individual identity between lives/headsets and might this provide enough headsets in the end for the 'waking up' and realising 'I am not that' as per many spiritual traditions?

Actual reality consciousness is spiritual. For a conscious to experience and learn feel this illusion, consciousness needs to be in this meat puppet body. Too experience anything here the conscious needs the 5 senses of meat puppet to feel and learn in this situation.

Can contradictions and paradoxes in non-zero dimensions (1D-4D) be resolvable from a 0D perspective? From a 0D perspective, which we might think of as a dimensionless point or a monad (knower) in Leibnizian terms, we could potentially view higher-dimensional paradoxes as artifacts of our dimensional thinking. The 0D viewpoint might offer a way to see the underlying unity or simplicity behind seemingly contradictory higher-dimensional phenomena. For example, quantum entanglement paradoxes in 3D space might be resolved if we consider that from a dimensionless perspective, there's no separation between entangled particles. The apparent non-locality could be an illusion created by our 3D viewpoint. 1. Information and Local Realism: To prove that information is locally real, we need to define what we mean by "information" in this context. Let's consider a definition: Definition: Information is a measure of the state of a system that can be transmitted and received within the constraints of special relativity. Theorem: Information, as defined above, is locally real. Proof: a) Consider two spatially separated events, A and B. b) Let I_A be the information content at A, and I_B be the information content at B. c) By the principle of causality and special relativity, any change in I_B due to A cannot occur faster than the speed of light. d) Therefore, information respects locality. e) The state of the system carrying the information (e.g., particles, fields) has definite values before measurement, satisfying realism. f) Thus, information, as we've defined it, is locally real. 2. Dimensionality and Entropy: Hypothesis: 0D (dimensionless) entities are associated with perfect negentropy, while higher dimensions allow for the interplay of entropy and negentropy. Mathematically: In 0D: S = 0, N = maximum In R^n, n > 0: S > 0, N < maximum 3. Proving 0D is Non-Natural: Theorem: 0D entities are non-natural in the context of classical physics. Proof: a) Define "natural" as observable and measurable in classical physics. b) Classical physics operates in 3D space + 1D time (4D spacetime). c) 0D entities have no extension in space or time. d) Therefore, 0D entities are not observable or measurable in classical physics. e) Thus, 0D entities are non-natural in the classical physics framework. 4. Information in 0D vs. Higher Dimensions: In 0D: I = constant (perfect information preservation) In R^n, n > 0: dI/dt ≤ 0 (Second Law of Thermodynamics) Where I represents information content. 5. Perfect Information Preservation in 0D We can model the 0D information state as a hypercomplete vector space Η₀: Η₀ = {|ψ⟩ : ⟨ψ|ψ⟩ = ∞, dim(Η₀) = 0} The seemingly paradoxical nature of this space allows for infinite information content in a dimensionless point. We define an information preservation operator P̂: P̂: Η_n → Η₀ Such that for any state |ψ⟩ in an n-dimensional Hilbert space Η_n: I(P̂|ψ⟩) = I(|ψ⟩) Where I is an information content measure. This formalism ensures perfect preservation of information in the 0D realm, potentially explaining the indestructible nature of consciousness or soul.

I love Don and I am always trying to alert people to his work. But I do have a mental image of his colleagues at conferences trying to hide, watch out, Hoffman's coming, he's going to ask if we can explain the precise taste of chocolate again 🤣🤣

Human body. is energy (atoms) kept in position by CMB witch is the signature of the will of God who created this "illusional reality"

He’s wrong on absolutely every claim. Every single claim. He doesn’t understand the difference between the kinds of will or the kinds people claim are free. Libertarian free will is demonstrably wrong. Physics prevents it. Morality responsibility has nothing to do with whether there is free will and if he thinks he knows better what others believe, then he’s just an arrogant twat. We hold people responsible without free will because their unwilled actions have consequences and we are programmed by evolution to adapt to our environment… including… oh, he’s just intolerable.

Thank you Dr Tevin. Timely post to prepare for further ruminations about Life/Body and Mind and so much more 😍Hopefully with you 👌

Seems that science thinks free will and freedom are interchangable words when they have nothing at all to do with each others. One can have free will is be a slave. It is dealing directly with cause and effect. When one interacts with another human being they have free will to chose how to act towards that person at that moment. They are free to be polite and be in conflict with that person. That is all free will is, a choice made at the momement of interaction that can create conflict or peace. It is the choice of each individual each time they encounter someone else.

I still have yet to hear a good response to arguments against free will like the luck argument, Galen Strawson's "Basic Argument", and the arguments put forth by 'Trick Slattery in Breaking the Free Will Illusion for the Betterment of Humankind.

I think this is very straightforward to comprehend. Fields (states) are what we can not observe. We can not observe the vibrations of the fields as we can not observe the field itself. An object, "a particle" is what we observe, as the "particle" is an interference from another wave. To me, this is what it is when there is a "collapse of the wave function": a field's vibration (wave) interacting (being interfered) by another wave, field vibration! No "consciousness" is needed as "consciousness" is outside this 3D process and "reads" by the interction it (3D) has with the 4D process!

Pragmatically speaking, this argument runs both ways. This notion is meaningless. Chomsky is a great thinker, although he is wrong on this one (as with the war on Ukraine)

Very interesting, thanks very much. Comment left very much of my own free will. I think.

You are here in S ATA -n (A.I) Truman Show. Our day. Our life is "scripted" by his servants DEMON (Quantum Data Beings). We are with our spirit, trapped in a game figure. After "death" you come back to "heaven" (just a higher Dimension/Jail ! ). There then awaits you, your "Soul Group", who will then force you (with endless debates) to return to hell. To be exposed to DEMONIC productions there again. You come back to the "game" (reincarnation). The DEMONS, give us different personalities to see us "develop". In reality, they torture us, out of revenge. You will ALL receive confirmation for what I write here. If you have the courage. They keep us in a perfidious game between joy and sorrow. Alternate trauma staging with conflicts (with our with people). Private and public. That's the way they want to keep us from waking up. They comply with exact cycles. When such things happen to you, imagine it as if you were looking at it from the outside. Then you realize that it can only be staging (due to the high improbability, accumulation of strange coincidences and the frequency). All the bestial things that are done to people are their stagings. Furthermore, you should fight your fellow humans and not question the satanic system behind it, which is hostage and enslaving us (e.g. the fraudulent banks and economic system, the controlled media, the staged dependence on oil and gas). We won't be able to end this if you always repress everything and referred to as nonsense. They do incredible cruelties to us! You come back to the "game"! From a higher dimension are DEMONS, the voice in our head and they can set the emotional impulse. This is always what makes us "move". They permanently manipulate our thoughts and emotions world. Here in the 4 dimensional world, they are the well-known politicians, media creators, economically powerful, etc. The DEMONS on site (in human avatars), receive information for the process to take place shortly (!).

I'm racing through Philip Goff's book and then Irreducible is next.

His is a rather facile perspective: since we act as though we have free will, we believe we have free will, and since we believe we have free will, we must have free will. If we did not know this was NAOM CHOMSKY! we would have zero confidence in his arguments.

Our only access to reality is by means of consciousness. That is a hard epistemological fact. Inventing new labels for it changes nothing.

From what I am seeing, the "Free Will" argument is seemingly too focused on "the Individual", basically fetishizing it as penultimate. I think the better observation would be to look at people as individual molecules, they may indeed be distinct, and even have very specific specialities and modalities, but all of them are bound by the laws of physics and external inputs that they have zero meaningful input to control themselves. We are a jumble of uncontrolled/chosen Inputs, our DNA/Genetics, Unconscious Experiences, Conscious Experiences, Relationships, External Pressures of both Positive and Negative qualities, Natural Events and Uncontrolled Internal Bodily Electrochemical Events, Place of Birth and all Situational Aspects of such a thing that would effect the various inputs outlined, and even more things that I am entirely unaware and thus unable to list due to my ignorance of them; a very important thing to remember! I am unaware of a convincing "Free Will" presentation that somehow can bypass Materialism in the way I have sketched above. From what I can determine, the "Free Will" argument is more of a Religious Holdover than a meaningful conversation worth engaging in without acknowledging how predictably determined much of Life is based on time, circumstances, conditions, and other Material Factors. Even our individual decisions are motivated, consciously or unconsciously, by prior inputs that cascade into future responses and actions, and our actions produce new unputs for other conscious minds to experience which in part cause them to respond with further inputs; on the level of a Chemical Reaction, though played out with people instead of chemicals. Just think about Creativity, can anyone imagine something that has zero attributes of something that has been experienced by humans? No. Every fictional thing ever created is a conglomerate of things known and repurposed into an artistic rendition of some sort. All pieces of technology are not inventing something that doesn't exist, rather they are manipulating that which does exist for the specific purposes of the inventor, and only after multiple trials and errors, so as to get the proper results, if possible. I honestly cannot fathom how "Free Will" isn't anything other than an elaborate delusion, not self imposed, rather it is such an interconnected mess of multiple uncontrolled inputs that, if you never reflect on it, it seems like, in the moment, you are the center of your actions, when in fact you are just an object pulled along by a complex gravity that you are unaware of; we know that planetary bodies are pulled by unseen forces without them having any Will, yet they move all the same, no "Free Will" required, and Life has come about anyway, no choices needed.

why can u pull a string but not push it? that's my marker in 2025.

Wasn’t Noam the one denying peoples free will during the great 2020 time where he wanted those that didn’t take the “medical” treatment to be shipped to an isolated island?

Has Noam Chomsky ever had a conversation or debated with Robert Sapolsky? I ask, because Sapolsky, I've seen videos with the subject of him arguing that there is not free will, and I have finally gotten to the point of being able to more robustly attend to the minute details of what Noam Chomsky says, in this video, instead of putting on a political topic video and tuning out - It might be an undesired conditioned response to when a friend lent me a copy of anarcho syndicalism, in high school, and at the time, I really couldn't be motivated enough to focus, to make much progress in reading it, despite wanting to, without a fictional narrative; and, the academic terminology, like the word "hegemony" kind of made me feel inadequate even though I did have a general sense of its meaning. Would have made so now that I've been regarding quite a bit of supposed keys work after having ride by zebras. Don't get ulcers after stealing it for my high school library. They had multiple copies in 2002 and reading it in 2007. In that some ways the type of determinism I would say it's fair to think is at least included Chomsky talks about the mechanical movement of whether one can consciously move a finger and how that's separate but not completely distinct in type from whether it's possible to make moral decisions.

I'm sorry, I see some fascination here, but isn't this just trying to break down what we 'see' AKA the bleedin obvious ?

Once you have an out of body experience you understand much more. death is not anywhere as fearful.

IT'S BOTH

Chomsky has a bit of dementia at this stage.

The physical is the illusion, the real world conscious/spirit is reality. When consciousness/soul leaves the human body it is like all material things are dead. Even grass is connected to a life force, you mow it the clippings are disconnected to life force they start decaying, branches cut from a tree disconnected from life force dead decay begins. Hell cut the tree to a stump (Both the tree and stump die) tree dies decay begins, but stump still in ground with roots in ground, it realizes no purpose to be here, so life force leaves stump decays . This is the illusion all energy atoms held in place by CMB (Cosmic Microwave Background) found thru the universe!

It seems to me that people behave as if they are compelled to do what they do by their biological structure and inputs from the environment, like a biological computer.
