Im as dumb as they come, but I realised most of these theories as real. It goes to show you, keep an ear out on the dumb guy too. I guess I had different values than the masses of dumb guy money earner burner and partyr. Does this mean low intelligence is under praised in a regard since, I'm sure most of us already knew most of this.
Eduardo Cassiano Going on Joe Rogan's podcast would expose Chris to millions more people. There is not a lot of content with Chris talking, we need more.
that hippie we could leave comments on Joe Rogans page. Young Jamie does the editing and setting up of the shows and TH-cam channels for Joe. We should leave comments on young Jamie's page. Chris is a fascinating person and I can't get enough. There is not much on him out there.
Interviewer is smart. Langan is smarter. He’s considered the issues more deeply and for a longer time. But someone of lesser intelligence probably couldn’t have conducted an interview like this.
CTMU is Vedanta philosophy. Without the beautiful writing. "Ignorant people raise questions that the wise answered a thousand years ago. All intelligent thoughts have already been thought; what is necessary is only to try to think them again." - Goethe
It doesn't matter so much that "thoughts have already been thought"; the CTMU is FORMAL extension of LOGIC, not fancy poetry. Formal logic, including the CTMU, isn't debatable or optional for the evolution of science and society. It's like the difference between Bruno's fanciful visions of the universe, and Galileo's actual scientific model of Heliocentrism. Both ideas can be "fanciful" and proximal to some ultimate truth, but only Galileo's model was a generic model.
@Hippolyte Thelonious Hieronymus Tzu If the world does not have logic in it where does logic come from and why would we assume it to make claims about the world?
@@steviewonder417 The world has logic (and non-logic. Everything is yin/yang.) The human mind has human logic which will never understand reality. It can only experience it. Humans can claim whatever they please, about the world and about logic...
Thanks Steve for this interview. Everybody that interviews Chris wants to spend an hour talking about being a bouncer. It was nice to hear questions not posed by a brainlet.
The last part of the conversation touched on God and how many people have discarded CTMU because of this. I'm thinking if they were able to let go of their learned prejudices about the word God-those small dogmatic interpretations that come nowhere close to reality, but were often shoved down our throats in youth-CTMI would make more sense to them. But like most new perceptions, we often have to let go of old perceptions to make way for new ones. Thank you for this conversation!
This interview is just fantastic, both informative and entertaining. Steve, you should do another interview with the guest. Would it be possible to bring CTMU a bit closer to the batchelor degree level? Reading the paper, Langan makes great leaps in reasoning which is difficult to follow and various used sources are not clear. Breaking up the chapters and explaining them (and the root ideas) would make the theory more consumable.
Holy shit. I have been saying for years you are only as smart as the information you can transpire to others. That hit me so hard when he said that. I love language. God isn't an entity, it's a truth. The ultimate conclusion.
I really, really enjoyed this conversation. :) I have already listened to it 2+ times and this number may only go up as I continue to parse all the truths and dissect the way in which you were both understanding each other. @Steve, is there an email address I can use to get in touch with you? Peace! 🙏
Langan is a full blown Aristotelian hylemorphist and no doubt you can prove God`s existence from this standpoint, it was done numerous times by Avicenna, Aquinas and Garrigou-Lagrange.
As far as I can tell, this is the primary document about CTMU. knowledgebase.ctmu.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Langan_CTMU_0929021-1.pdf "The Cognitive-Theoretic Model of the Universe: A New Kind of Reality Theory" (2002)
i second that just much much more elaborate almost like he learned and stood on the shoulders of giants right and grew even bigger then the original man below already so tall and holding him up enough to almost give him a god complex but hes humble and smart enough to see it and understand that all that is happening around him and still not say fuck it noone can understand me anyway whats the point so he knows this and still he continues on plays to his strengths to the fullest ive ever seen
Too short, we need at least 10 times this length of time to be able to comprehend the basics a such a seemingly important theory, maybe the most important theory. Excellent interview nonetheless! Get him back please..
Not only that, but the fear stems from loosing their jobs in academic pursuits, their financial ties for sponsoring research etc. as well as maintaining their social status in the group/collective of mainstream academia. Its sad that scientists, who would advocate for freedom of thought and exploration, are pressured this much to comply and stay in lane
This podcast was both very informing and eye opening, and at the same time utterly confusing. Especially his vocabulary is just alien like. English is not my first language, but I thought I sort of mastered it by now. I was wrong...
I have been scaring myself in the last few months. I'm not sure but awareness is on hyperspeed...that metaphysical part and playing in the field of pure potentiality using a roulette wheel and all the slots belong to an idea that exists. It has bazillion different matrixes within it. There is a matrix for everything that exists so when I want to manifest I go to my roulett wheel. I see it in my head and the ball has already settled in. I virtually use whatever drops into my imagination and that is where it all begins for me, but then nothing ever ends, I just quit tracking it, so that time ends but the continuousness of just now is more evident. Stopping and going is what has us in 3D "process". Take away the "idea" of process and just do as if it already exists, because it DOES. We can't say everything is already exist unless you actually embrace it, embody it or it becomes just another thought. I like big rocks and I cannot lie the other rocks run and hide....LOL I Love this guy. I love that he stayed grounded.
What a load of prejudiced over generalization. Yeah, I’m sure the academic quality of Cal Tech or MIT has really suffered as more people go to college. This guy is proof of the limitations of the IQ test.
@39.35 Quote from the Buddha, Majjhe Sutta ‘He who, having understood both ends’, ‘does not get attached to the middle with wisdom’, ‘Him I call a great man’, ‘Because he has bypassed the seamstress in this world.’
Poor Chris. He undoubtedly is a very smart man who, for reasons beyond his control, never lived up to his potential. No wonder he's bitter and angry. I agree with Chris that we badly need alternatives to academia. Even for very gifted people, academia no longer offers a reasonable career path. Academia is largely a postmodernist popularity contest that only knows the languages of grant money, debt slavery and conformity.
He’s quite passionate and it may be a facade of his seemingly anger tendencies, and he claims that he learned more teaching himself than academia ever could.
I expected to see comments telling Patterson to shush so Chris can talk more but it’s just nonsense here I feel like Patterson isn't a very good listener. Like, question after question about the same thing but if you would've just listened you would've heard the answer which was very simply laid out for you.
Reminds me a lot of #bernardokastrup s views. Would love to see them change ideas about differences and similarities between #ctmu and #analyticidealism
His ego as a pressing issue, pales in comparison to his helpful data [CTMU]...Mr. Langan has such uniqueness; I am not positive the public at-large, at this point in time, has the capacity to attempt a universally accepted definition of conscience. Regretfully, many will miss Mr. Langan's work while holding to a multiplicity of nebulous academic initiatives..
this guy is one of those people who make the very people who create iq tests question if he even testable unless he would test himself and thats the same as him literally knowing it all so hes capable of knowing anything he sets his mind to so anything he looks at and interests him
Most of you aren’t aware or capable enough to hide your primal jealousy and hatred of a man a book told you was smarter than you. Simping in simpville likely hating this man before you heard his voice or saw him. Stand by your words when you learn something likely you won’t ever with this sort of approach but this man is extremely intelligent. In fact most videos of him aren’t impressive but by no means do they invalidate his ability or genius. They sort of make him appear racist and cold weird nerdly calculated or whatever . Chris is extremely intelligent I believe he is a genius and personally he ranks among the smartest people I’ve heard speak in certain contexts rivaling satoshi nakamoto (-aka Craig Wright who ironically fights a similar sort of cloud of jealousy stupidity and hatred and… evil. Craig has to Dance with the devils which Langan understandably would prefer to be alone ) , Nikola Tesla (though very different in ways and clearly Tesla has a more typical history of exceptional achievement, Edward Teller, he’s actually sort of unparalleled for me in terms of science and his attempts to explain god and quantifying things which aren’t. He sort of does. Aghast you potato heads would never even listen to that meaty second half
Chris does`nt respond well to criticism because like a Cobra he strikes out at anybody critisizing him,not as bad as the narcissict Donald Chump who lies in an Instant to the Whole US and the world,even if everybody Knows that he IS LYING but if you respond arrogantly and offensively at any and all critisism you obviously have issues. Very high IQ or genious will always be at the expense of some other mental faculty and/or EQ.You should read some of Chris`s belittlement and attempt at degrading some of those who among other Things critisise his theory of everything, the so called CTMU i think so if u want to `kick him where it hurts` just critisise that theory because he`s always right and you are always wrong. sounds like a guy With issues? I agree.
Mr Bluntforce T Brilliant researchers are forced to argue their assertions. It's part of their PhD theses. Chris, however, wants no part of this, probably because he is incapable of successfully arguing credible challenges to to his ideas.
@@Haroldbeavis1969 Sounds about right; maybe he is more intelligent than intellectual I`m not sure but I can still Challenge him,even With an iq of a measly 147 and I did`nt make that up
@@Haroldbeavis1969 Sure,but that was`nt my point and as far as `Words of wisdom` go we could in theory Exchange Confucius,Socrates and Voltaire like comments all day which would be boring.Do`nt know in which timezone you reside in but looking at Your profile name I`m guessing the US.I reside at 61 deg North, English is`nt my mother tounge and I`m not Russian.The time here right now is 07:34 Am.Byebye
Chris is getting old, couple years more he'll experience his twilight and that of his nation. I wonder what the thinks of his own mortality and how he will deal with it, considering he probably wants his CTMU to go further into posteriority.
To anyone who wants to write a comment criticising Chris. Seek him out and actual contact him. Don’t think you’ve posted a comment debunking him on some dark corner where he’s unlikely to respond and show you why you’ve not debunked his ideas at all. Don’t be a chicken.
He’s such a master of word salad I can understand why you fall for his baloney. But all he is is a grifter. He could possibly have contributed with something if his enormous ego hadn’t gotten in the way…
@@LangansBulldog he’s a charlatan so why would I talk to him? He’s close to a cult leader I would say where his fanboys are just a bunch of disgruntled boys/men having walked through life feeling under appreciated for their own perceived intelligence. And then they come across Grifty McGrift here, the alpha of their kind and suddenly they feel validated. They understand something most people don’t. Not that they really understand it, not all of it. Some things you just have to take masters word for. Can’t really make any sense of it but when “explained” by master it sort of makes sense…in a feel good way. But hey, they aren’t the “big smarts” having that high IQ so they can’t be expected to understand everything. It can’t be because the whole thing is just a dead end made up of undefined concepts woven into, at best, circular logic making it impossible to make sense of…nooo it must be because the grand leader is soooo much smarter than the rest of us. It’s like someone commented here; go talk to the homeless or the drunks down at the park and you’ll find someone like this. Someone that can talk forever on anything and everything sounding confident and coherent, until you really listen to what they’re saying and then you realize something is missing…that it’s just word salad… I’m a mathematician and I’ve thought deeply for a long time about things being touched upon here and this theory of his severely lacks the rigor that is needed to be taken seriously. That’s the main thing that pops out, the flagrant lack of rigor. The guy just throws around a bunch of (often made up) terminology in a way that doesn’t really mean anything or makes any sense and then claims he proved something. So no, there’s no need to correspond with him. The less I have to do with him the better I’d say. The Terrence Howard episode that sort of blew up after he’d been on Rogan is very similar to this. It’s just that Terrence’s bullshit was a lot less convoluted. Chris is probably a bit smarter than Terrence as well and can therefore concoct a murkier brew. Terrence seemed to be having mental health problems but then again, delusions of grandeur might be considered that too. Other than that…two peas of the same pod. Or maybe not. Terrence was at least obviously honest about his beliefs. This guy I can’t tell if he really 100% believes it, if it’s nothing but a grift or if the lines between them are blurred. My gut tells me it’s the latter and that he mostly believes it but in his heart of hearts, deep down knows there is something rotten in the state of Denmark… Just my 2c. And that’s all I have to say on the matter.
27:00 Rick Rosnor actually has a podcast and it always made sense that he's got flaws. But, yes he shows intelligence but is clearly radically dogmatic.
@@TeliahSwint subject interpret object. the three elements of reality. but there is only one reality, thus you are really interpreting a part of yourself, and the the three in one structure of the universe, the trinity
42:25 "No one has proved that the CTMU isn't true." No one is able to disprove that there is a silver teapot at the end of the universe! But who can prove these things?!
You don't seem to grasp that is must be an error in logic that is pointed to that makes the whole structure incoherent as opposed to empirical evidence as ctmu is a metaphysical arrangement not a claim about objects in the world.
@@sherlockholmeslives.1605 My understanding is that Langan would claim that distinction breaks down at the level of abstraction we have to use to describe the metaphysical structure of "all that is". As it is the abstract entities like logic and coherency that science embodies as an ethical practice or worldview you might call it, that are more fundamental than the language used to describe science itself. This is why CTMU tries to justify faith in logic not as simply a given as the naive empiricist does but at the level of coherency meaning the universe abiding by logical principles is the only way things could be as all things are mind, namely god's mind.
@@sherlockholmeslives.1605 This refusal to just assume logic justifies itself is why there is this gulf between the empirical world and Langan. He's ironically unsatisfied with the blind faith the ratio worshiping have in entities like logic. He thinks of them as false gods in a sense. His whole thing is basically that those principles like logic are actually nested in something more fundamental and this being the case is the only way things like ethics or morals for instance become coherent.
i like to say where only as smart as what the smartest people have left behind for us to learn from and what we leave behind and so on and so on but awesome comment
@@7seasons31 What I think is this guy is a whiner. Everything is someone else´s fault. He got into Reed, blew it up, and blamed it on whom? On his mom, that didn´t fill up some freaking paperwork. Man up, man. He advocates meritocracy for others but he himslef plays the eternal victim.
God damn this shit, an interview is supposed to be mainly unidirectional. If you are making videos for the benefit of the community, let the people talk and don't interrupt. Chris can hold his own in a discussion, you ONLY intervene if the interviewee has a blank. He doesn't have time for personal consultations.
to really understand this stuff is saying you understand that infinite is just the final answer to everything because of where we are right now in the world and all we know right now isnt whats out there because of the human understanding and knowledge that increases yeah after year along with natural events and inflation overall everything is so unpredictable i almost think its fair to say like some cheesy movie everything is everything
What you are listening to is an intelligent feminine cognitive pattern (Patterson, who must therefore be a Liberal) vs a severe genius with a masculine cognitive pattern (Langan who is irritated with Patterson’s at times embarrassing attempts at mental competition masquerading as an “interview” )
Amazing how a person who seeks to bring truth to the world, is being silenced and trolled on a weekly basis. John 3:19 Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. Jesus is coming soon.
Mankind has invented many bizarrely specific attributes of God in the Bible such as not liking bowl haircuts. I reccomend only believing Jesus is "coming soon" if you personally had God tell you this. Don't trust the Bible.
The permanent record comments are a load of bunkum. Unless you got arrested, nobody cares what mischief you got into when you were in elementary or middle school. I was a hell raiser ages 12 - 15. I have a degree from Johns Hopkins, one from Stanford, and I was accepted at Brown.
I would have to call this the most dangerous information in the world.. We are living in the metanarrative of duality, of 'good' and 'evil', and we have been deeply programmed to believe that these things are separate, when they are exactly the same thing. One coin with two sides. We essentially worship the mere notion of 'good', regardless of the fact that it always comes with 'evil'.. This mode of thinking is self-enslavement.
@@hansfrankfurter2903 Postmodernism could be described as "incredulity towards metanarratives", and I couldn't agree more. You've forgotten how to think critically.
@@hansfrankfurter2903 How could you possibly lockdown a population that doesn't even believe in duality? How could you subject them to ANYTHING? Whose subject are you? You don't have the nerve to think you are free, do you?
In Langan's critique of Jordan Peterson comments on Trump's IQ, he, Langan, seems to be both a very poor listener (to Peterson's easily-understood statements) and so over-confident and opinionated that he somehow doesn't realize that when he is attempting, in authoritative, pontificating tones, to dismiss Peterson, he is actually restating Peterson's point. His opinionated over-confidence seems so bad to me that it's boorish, and I wonder if those are the reasons he's never earned himself credibility among the intelligentsia that, typically?, he dismisses in disparaging tones. I wonder how much of what I believe I'm seeing is consistent with his work as a bar bouncer, perhaps a role that he selected for the personal enjoyment of it. Malcolm Gladwell thought his lack of success could be attributed to his class background, but I think it may have to do with gross, self-discrediting over-confidence and a need to be bellicose. Peterson has an IQ of 150, but seems to be an infinitely more valuable thinker, and an infinitely better listener, and infinitely more careful and respectful listener. Marilyn vos Savant was said to have an IQ of 207 and she was thought by some to be most remarkable for her lack of achievement as well. I don't believe any IQ test can actually measure IQ's that high, and the extrapolated values of super-high IQ's may not as meaningful as they are touted (and touted, and touted, and touted again, endlessly, in Langan's case) to be. I asked him once about the possibility of time going backward and I don't think his authoritative-sounding pronouncement actually holds up in terms of the work of the more-careful thinker Carlo Rovelli, for example. Langan seemed to contradict his answer to me in some of his other videos, having to do with (not his words) causes over-determining effects (my way of putting it). I was immensely disappointed but glad to listen to his comments about Peterson because that was sufficient for me to take further study of his work off of my to-do list. Instead, I will invest that time in the work of those whose ability to maintain intellectual integrity I trust more. I think maybe the great value of Langan's much-touted IQ might be as an example of how over-confidence, or over-confidence drenched in belligerence, can neutralize one's gifts. I took Langan to task about his comments about Peterson and he blocked me on the TH-cam page where I made them, so what does that tell you?
God is everything and everything is mathematical equations, mathematical equations abide by specific laws, therefore God is the mathematical laws ???????
I disagree with the CTMU. However, they certainly have a right to do their own thing in peace, and so I will go do my thing and all is fine. But I would like to leave you all with one observation. Nowhere in the entirety of the CTMU document, which is claimed to be complete, do we find this word : L O V E ..........................
The CTMU has no traction in a world that is more interconnected and has more people than ever. It derives most of its legitimacy from the high IQ score of its creator. Yes, academia is screwed up, but ironically, Mr. Langan's own special status generates an interest for his ideas that they could have never achieved on their own merit.
That’s pretty much true. Academia is a very flawed and to some extent corrupt system, but its the best that we have so far. It it wasn’t for academia there wouldn’t be an IQ concept or test that Langan can boast about to begin with.
@@ElectricQualia just because that's true doesn't mean he isn't right nor does it mean that he system is necessarily wrong. He is saying there are specific things within the system that make it what it has become today. Where as if they had a different goal in mind with academics, the system would look entirely different. Things are done on purpose people aren't stupid especially people with power, thinking that is naive, not to say you couldn't be smarter but the conclusions you come to have probably been realised before you and countered. Intentions matter contrary to what most people that think they're smart belirf.
@@RLjumpers Right about what? This guy is simply a disgruntled old fool who wants to hyper exaggerate the flaws in academia to justify why he never made it there. Its so painfully obvious, only a moron would not see it.
@@RLjumpers he is just trying to find excuses for why he failed academically by making up hyperbolic criticisms of academia while not showing us any viable alternative.
@@ElectricQualia leftists have literally destroyed academia across the western world for decades. They corrupted the peer review process as well. Wake up to reality.
Nope, I have the highest IQ in America (indeed, the highest IQ in the world, roughly 350... I know, I've heard it numerous times that such an IQ is statistically impossible, but they are applying the statistics incorrectly) but nobody knows who I am and I would like to keep it that way. I developed a human-level AGI, I rewrote the laws of physics making an extremely minor change to quantum mechanics which explains both dark matter and dark energy, I have solved the P vs. NP problem, and I have developed a formal proof that infinity is a fallacy (amongst other things). Yes, Steve, I sent you an email a while back which you ignored. I would like to say, I was wrong about one thing. I used to be an atheist and I recently reaffirmed my childhood Christianity (I said you would see my viewpoint, but it appears you were correct). (Technically, this is for the benefit of other people that need to understand the universe in simplistic terms, not myself.) My incorrect opinion on that subject was merely due to a lack of data (not having a lot of life experience outside of solid brick buildings even to the age of 35 years old). At 35 years old I decided to stop and look at the world around me rather than constantly having my nose in books. At that point, my world literally went insane when I realized the true nature of the universe. Unfortunately, I was recently poisoned and microwaved... multiple times (as part of the population culling that Trump is, apparently, supporting). This is having a major impact on my IQ, and honestly, if they keep doing it I will be dead soon. Sad, really. Humans will have lost their one chance at surviving the 21st century... me. I say good riddens. Humans do not deserve to exist. I am certain there are intelligent species elsewhere in the universe that are more deserving.
@@CookiePire I'm not going to share that because humans simply do not deserve the solution. Current human mathematics will lead you to the exact opposite conclusion (P != NP). This is because humans have *intentionally* accepted false premises into their mathematics. This is why humans do not deserve the answer. Even their mathematics lies. This will, ultimately, lead to their destruction. Humans are a species that does not care about truth.
@@kingt.hawkings32 Not even close, sorry. I regret being one of the driving forces behind modern machine learning. Humans will simply use this technology to enslave other humans. Humans are a stupid, greedy, lying species that do not deserve to exist. Once the nuke clouds settle and only radiation resistant bugs are left they will get one more chance to evolve into something intelligent (most likely a swarm based intelligence). Hopefully, they will realize that truth is more important than their swarm instincts. If not, they too will succumb to the same fate.
@@kingt.hawkings32 I don't see the Ying Yang Hypothesis video. Can you provide a full (not youtu.be) link? Honestly, I do not think there is anything that anyone could teach me about physics because I am so far beyond modern physics already.
The interviewer asked him a question and he answered it the best way he thought he could, with honesty. And yes he is right of course it plays a factor are you dumb?

Im as dumb as they come, but I realised most of these theories as real. It goes to show you, keep an ear out on the dumb guy too. I guess I had different values than the masses of dumb guy money earner burner and partyr. Does this mean low intelligence is under praised in a regard since, I'm sure most of us already knew most of this.
It would be great to get Chris on the Joe Rogan Podcast. The exposure would be a positive for the CTMU.
Was thinking about that just today. Joe is more of a entertainment trivia guy but definitely they could have nice talk.
Eduardo Cassiano Going on Joe Rogan's podcast would expose Chris to millions more people. There is not a lot of content with Chris talking, we need more.
that hippie we could leave comments on Joe Rogans page. Young Jamie does the editing and setting up of the shows and TH-cam channels for Joe. We should leave comments on young Jamie's page. Chris is a fascinating person and I can't get enough. There is not much on him out there.
Joe Rogan is waaaay too dumb to talk about this stuff though lol
Jack Harper yes, but it would be interesting to see Chris be able to talk for a few hours. There is not a lot out there.
I don’t even know how I would start a conversation with Mr. Langan His mind is greatly under appropriated.. Great interview.
Interviewer is smart. Langan is smarter. He’s considered the issues more deeply and for a longer time. But someone of lesser intelligence probably couldn’t have conducted an interview like this.
The podcast should be called ‘behind the scenes with optimus prime’ discussing his home planet cybertron
Hahah
Wonderful interview-I think you are the first intelligent person to interview him. Thank you.
Great interview and guest! Thanks so much.
Very impressed with both of you. Nice work.
CTMU is Vedanta philosophy. Without the beautiful writing. "Ignorant people raise questions that the wise answered a thousand years ago. All intelligent thoughts have already been thought; what is necessary is only to try to think them again." - Goethe
It doesn't matter so much that "thoughts have already been thought"; the CTMU is FORMAL extension of LOGIC, not fancy poetry. Formal logic, including the CTMU, isn't debatable or optional for the evolution of science and society. It's like the difference between Bruno's fanciful visions of the universe, and Galileo's actual scientific model of Heliocentrism. Both ideas can be "fanciful" and proximal to some ultimate truth, but only Galileo's model was a generic model.
@@xxxYYZxxx There is no reason to extend logic except in the human mind. The world is not logical.
xxxYYZxxx Formal? You must be joking! Nothing “formal” about it.
@Hippolyte Thelonious Hieronymus Tzu If the world does not have logic in it where does logic come from and why would we assume it to make claims about the world?
@@steviewonder417 The world has logic (and non-logic. Everything is yin/yang.) The human mind has human logic which will never understand reality. It can only experience it. Humans can claim whatever they please, about the world and about logic...
Thanks Steve for this interview. Everybody that interviews Chris wants to spend an hour talking about being a bouncer. It was nice to hear questions not posed by a brainlet.
Don´t worry, he´s seems very happy to keep talking about being a bouncer.
The last part of the conversation touched on God and how many people have discarded CTMU because of this. I'm thinking if they were able to let go of their learned prejudices about the word God-those small dogmatic interpretations that come nowhere close to reality, but were often shoved down our throats in youth-CTMI would make more sense to them. But like most new perceptions, we often have to let go of old perceptions to make way for new ones. Thank you for this conversation!
Bingo! 💥
This interview is just fantastic, both informative and entertaining.
Steve, you should do another interview with the guest. Would it be possible to bring CTMU a bit closer to the batchelor degree level? Reading the paper, Langan makes great leaps in reasoning which is difficult to follow and various used sources are not clear. Breaking up the chapters and explaining them (and the root ideas) would make the theory more consumable.
It's crazy, thinking about my past (artistic) works and seeing how this principle/concept/w.e-tf echos throughout it all.
Same
Holy shit. I have been saying for years you are only as smart as the information you can transpire to others. That hit me so hard when he said that. I love language.
God isn't an entity, it's a truth. The ultimate conclusion.
Which would mean God is also an entity.
Wonderful conversation. You should put in your own words Mr. Langan's book, to get it out there soon.
Amazing video!
Love it! And am really hungry for more...
The same ie the jacket, happens with patients who disagree with their doctors even when the patient is later discovered to be correct.
I really, really enjoyed this conversation. :) I have already listened to it 2+ times and this number may only go up as I continue to parse all the truths and dissect the way in which you were both understanding each other.
@Steve, is there an email address I can use to get in touch with you? Peace! 🙏
Same 😌💭
Langan is a full blown Aristotelian hylemorphist and no doubt you can prove God`s existence from this standpoint, it was done numerous times by Avicenna, Aquinas and Garrigou-Lagrange.
This goes way beyond hylemorphism.
The more i know, the more i find out im not smart.
Lol seems like it
The more you learn the dumber you get
That’s far better than the opposite! (The dunning Kruger effect)
That is the most perfect explanation of Academia in existence.
As far as I can tell, this is the primary document about CTMU. knowledgebase.ctmu.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Langan_CTMU_0929021-1.pdf "The Cognitive-Theoretic Model of the Universe: A New Kind of Reality Theory" (2002)
i second that just much much more elaborate almost like he learned and stood on the shoulders of giants right and grew even bigger then the original man below already so tall and holding him up enough to almost give him a god complex but hes humble and smart enough to see it and understand that all that is happening around him and still not say fuck it noone can understand me anyway whats the point so he knows this and still he continues on plays to his strengths to the fullest ive ever seen
Too short, we need at least 10 times this length of time to be able to comprehend the basics a such a seemingly important theory, maybe the most important theory.
Excellent interview nonetheless!
Get him back please..
I know right! Im still struggling with this theory. It all intuitively makes sense but actually understanding is very difficult.
he believes in God and most scientists even though they believe in God they're afraid to say anything about it because then they'll use lose tenure
They can't even hint at creationism or they will be blacklisted, specifically highlighted in Ben Stein's Xpelled: No Intelligence Allowed.
Not only that, but the fear stems from loosing their jobs in academic pursuits, their financial ties for sponsoring research etc. as well as maintaining their social status in the group/collective of mainstream academia. Its sad that scientists, who would advocate for freedom of thought and exploration, are pressured this much to comply and stay in lane
Thank leftists for literally ruining academia across the western world.
This podcast was both very informing and eye opening, and at the same time utterly confusing. Especially his vocabulary is just alien like. English is not my first language, but I thought I sort of mastered it by now. I was wrong...
English is my native language and i need to study for his vocabulary. Nothing to be ashamed of at all.
Nice post man, I’m a few mins in and this seems like it will be a very interesting talk .
I have been scaring myself in the last few months. I'm not sure but awareness is on hyperspeed...that metaphysical part and playing in the field of pure potentiality using a roulette wheel and all the slots belong to an idea that exists. It has bazillion different matrixes within it. There is a matrix for everything that exists so when I want to manifest I go to my roulett wheel. I see it in my head and the ball has already settled in. I virtually use whatever drops into my imagination and that is where it all begins for me, but then nothing ever ends, I just quit tracking it, so that time ends but the continuousness of just now is more evident. Stopping and going is what has us in 3D "process". Take away the "idea" of process and just do as if it already exists, because it DOES. We can't say everything is already exist unless you actually embrace it, embody it or it becomes just another thought.
I like big rocks and I cannot lie the other rocks run and hide....LOL I Love this guy. I love that he stayed grounded.
Thanks for this Steve.
What a load of prejudiced over generalization. Yeah, I’m sure the academic quality of Cal Tech or MIT has really suffered as more people go to college. This guy is proof of the limitations of the IQ test.

Poor Chris. He undoubtedly is a very smart man who, for reasons beyond his control, never lived up to his potential. No wonder he's bitter and angry. I agree with Chris that we badly need alternatives to academia. Even for very gifted people, academia no longer offers a reasonable career path. Academia is largely a postmodernist popularity contest that only knows the languages of grant money, debt slavery and conformity.
He’s quite passionate and it may be a facade of his seemingly anger tendencies, and he claims that he learned more teaching himself than academia ever could.

I expected to see comments telling Patterson to shush so Chris can talk more but it’s just nonsense here
I feel like Patterson isn't a very good listener. Like, question after question about the same thing but if you would've just listened you would've heard the answer which was very simply laid out for you.
coconutmilch chris does not properly explicate his ideas to people with little exposure to the Ctmu however.
@@hibye-uv8pn I think you're correct and Patterson is fearful of showing his ignorance on the subject to a person so intelligent.
CTMU makes perfect sense to me. He is explaining very simple things very thoroughly.
It doesn't explain everything but if you see truth in that then good for you.
Reminds me a lot of #bernardokastrup s views. Would love to see them change ideas about differences and similarities between #ctmu and #analyticidealism
They did a debate on the Theories of Everything channel.
His ego as a pressing issue, pales in comparison to his helpful data [CTMU]...Mr. Langan has such uniqueness; I am not positive the public at-large, at this point in time, has the capacity to attempt a universally accepted definition of conscience. Regretfully, many will miss Mr. Langan's work while holding to a multiplicity of nebulous academic initiatives..
Lisp, the language, has a meta-linguistic power. It can be implemented in itself in only half-page of code.
Language doesn't have meta-linguistic power.
this guy is one of those people who make the very people who create iq tests question if he even testable unless he would test himself and thats the same as him literally knowing it all so hes capable of knowing anything he sets his mind to so anything he looks at and interests him
The way he talks you can tell it's not a dumb person
How is Langan's cognitive syntax different than Kant's categories?
It's not, Kant wasn't that different from Aristotle either who got it from Plato's forms.
It isn’t, it sounds pretty much identical.

Where do I find the concept of Cindy Fiona?
Most of you aren’t aware or capable enough to hide your primal jealousy and hatred of a man a book told you was smarter than you. Simping in simpville likely hating this man before you heard his voice or saw him. Stand by your words when you learn something likely you won’t ever with this sort of approach but this man is extremely intelligent. In fact most videos of him aren’t impressive but by no means do they invalidate his ability or genius. They sort of make him appear racist and cold weird nerdly calculated or whatever . Chris is extremely intelligent I believe he is a genius and personally he ranks among the smartest people I’ve heard speak in certain contexts rivaling satoshi nakamoto (-aka Craig Wright who ironically fights a similar sort of cloud of jealousy stupidity and hatred and… evil. Craig has to Dance with the devils which Langan understandably would prefer to be alone ) , Nikola Tesla (though very different in ways and clearly Tesla has a more typical history of exceptional achievement, Edward Teller, he’s actually sort of unparalleled for me in terms of science and his attempts to explain god and quantifying things which aren’t. He sort of does. Aghast you potato heads would never even listen to that meaty second half
I came to listen to Chris Langan but Patterson keeps butting in
has age brought down his brain cells?is he protecting his brain any advice
It needs to be shared between both objects if they are intelligent
Just once I'd like to hear Chris in an interview in which he's forced to debate his ideas. Just once.
Chris does`nt respond well to criticism because like a Cobra he strikes out at anybody critisizing him,not as bad as the narcissict Donald Chump who lies in an Instant to the Whole US and the world,even if everybody Knows that he IS LYING but if you respond arrogantly and offensively at any and all critisism you obviously have issues. Very high IQ or genious will always be at the expense of some other mental faculty and/or EQ.You should read some of Chris`s belittlement and attempt at degrading some of those who among other Things critisise his theory of everything, the so called CTMU i think so if u want to `kick him where it hurts` just critisise that theory because he`s always right and you are always wrong. sounds like a guy With issues? I agree.
Mr Bluntforce T Brilliant researchers are forced to argue their assertions. It's part of their PhD theses. Chris, however, wants no part of this, probably because he is incapable of successfully arguing credible challenges to to his ideas.
@@Haroldbeavis1969 Sounds about right; maybe he is more intelligent than intellectual I`m not sure but I can still Challenge him,even With an iq of a measly 147 and I did`nt make that up
Mr Bluntforce T Intelligent people don't measure their intelligence by their IQ. They measure it by their accomplishments.
@@Haroldbeavis1969 Sure,but that was`nt my point and as far as `Words of wisdom` go we could in theory Exchange Confucius,Socrates and Voltaire like comments all day which would be boring.Do`nt know in which timezone you reside in but looking at Your profile name I`m guessing the US.I reside at 61 deg North, English is`nt my mother tounge and I`m not Russian.The time here right now is 07:34 Am.Byebye
Chris is getting old, couple years more he'll experience his twilight and that of his nation. I wonder what the thinks of his own mortality and how he will deal with it, considering he probably wants his CTMU to go further into posteriority.
Within a couple of generations, it won't matter.
At least he was fit it will extend his life, i hope he keep up on the cardio in older age though
mind blowing how can Lagan say hes not academic perhaps I need to revise my definition, ie my syntax ie my language,. ie
Langan voice remember me of Vader. Strong mind in strong body. It is quite intimidating to ask him anything.
I'm still waiting for a reply from him - after asking a simple question.
Self dual aspect of CTMU sounds very similar like Schopenhauer's will and representation.
Thanks for at least being open minded
Reality goes at the speed and quality of educated freewill choices.
To anyone who wants to write a comment criticising Chris.
Seek him out and actual contact him. Don’t think you’ve posted a comment debunking him on some dark corner where he’s unlikely to respond and show you why you’ve not debunked his ideas at all. Don’t be a chicken.
He’s such a master of word salad I can understand why you fall for his baloney. But all he is is a grifter. He could possibly have contributed with something if his enormous ego hadn’t gotten in the way…
@@agent_o_range where’s your correspondence with Chris? Or are you chickening out?
@@LangansBulldog he’s a charlatan so why would I talk to him? He’s close to a cult leader I would say where his fanboys are just a bunch of disgruntled boys/men having walked through life feeling under appreciated for their own perceived intelligence. And then they come across Grifty McGrift here, the alpha of their kind and suddenly they feel validated. They understand something most people don’t. Not that they really understand it, not all of it. Some things you just have to take masters word for. Can’t really make any sense of it but when “explained” by master it sort of makes sense…in a feel good way. But hey, they aren’t the “big smarts” having that high IQ so they can’t be expected to understand everything. It can’t be because the whole thing is just a dead end made up of undefined concepts woven into, at best, circular logic making it impossible to make sense of…nooo it must be because the grand leader is soooo much smarter than the rest of us.
It’s like someone commented here; go talk to the homeless or the drunks down at the park and you’ll find someone like this. Someone that can talk forever on anything and everything sounding confident and coherent, until you really listen to what they’re saying and then you realize something is missing…that it’s just word salad…
I’m a mathematician and I’ve thought deeply for a long time about things being touched upon here and this theory of his severely lacks the rigor that is needed to be taken seriously. That’s the main thing that pops out, the flagrant lack of rigor. The guy just throws around a bunch of (often made up) terminology in a way that doesn’t really mean anything or makes any sense and then claims he proved something. So no, there’s no need to correspond with him. The less I have to do with him the better I’d say.
The Terrence Howard episode that sort of blew up after he’d been on Rogan is very similar to this. It’s just that Terrence’s bullshit was a lot less convoluted. Chris is probably a bit smarter than Terrence as well and can therefore concoct a murkier brew. Terrence seemed to be having mental health problems but then again, delusions of grandeur might be considered that too. Other than that…two peas of the same pod. Or maybe not. Terrence was at least obviously honest about his beliefs. This guy I can’t tell if he really 100% believes it, if it’s nothing but a grift or if the lines between them are blurred. My gut tells me it’s the latter and that he mostly believes it but in his heart of hearts, deep down knows there is something rotten in the state of Denmark…
Just my 2c. And that’s all I have to say on the matter.

@@steviewonder417
Well put, but does that then make it a science theory or philosophy?!
@@sherlockholmeslives.1605 My understanding is that Langan would claim that distinction breaks down at the level of abstraction we have to use to describe the metaphysical structure of "all that is". As it is the abstract entities like logic and coherency that science embodies as an ethical practice or worldview you might call it, that are more fundamental than the language used to describe science itself. This is why CTMU tries to justify faith in logic not as simply a given as the naive empiricist does but at the level of coherency meaning the universe abiding by logical principles is the only way things could be as all things are mind, namely god's mind.
@@sherlockholmeslives.1605 This refusal to just assume logic justifies itself is why there is this gulf between the empirical world and Langan. He's ironically unsatisfied with the blind faith the ratio worshiping have in entities like logic. He thinks of them as false gods in a sense. His whole thing is basically that those principles like logic are actually nested in something more fundamental and this being the case is the only way things like ethics or morals for instance become coherent.

Langan should start playing chess.
He's too afraid to lose
In Langan's critique of Jordan Peterson comments on Trump's IQ, he, Langan, seems to be both a very poor listener (to Peterson's easily-understood statements) and so over-confident and opinionated that he somehow doesn't realize that when he is attempting, in authoritative, pontificating tones, to dismiss Peterson, he is actually restating Peterson's point. His opinionated over-confidence seems so bad to me that it's boorish, and I wonder if those are the reasons he's never earned himself credibility among the intelligentsia that, typically?, he dismisses in disparaging tones. I wonder how much of what I believe I'm seeing is consistent with his work as a bar bouncer, perhaps a role that he selected for the personal enjoyment of it. Malcolm Gladwell thought his lack of success could be attributed to his class background, but I think it may have to do with gross, self-discrediting over-confidence and a need to be bellicose. Peterson has an IQ of 150, but seems to be an infinitely more valuable thinker, and an infinitely better listener, and infinitely more careful and respectful listener. Marilyn vos Savant was said to have an IQ of 207 and she was thought by some to be most remarkable for her lack of achievement as well. I don't believe any IQ test can actually measure IQ's that high, and the extrapolated values of super-high IQ's may not as meaningful as they are touted (and touted, and touted, and touted again, endlessly, in Langan's case) to be. I asked him once about the possibility of time going backward and I don't think his authoritative-sounding pronouncement actually holds up in terms of the work of the more-careful thinker Carlo Rovelli, for example. Langan seemed to contradict his answer to me in some of his other videos, having to do with (not his words) causes over-determining effects (my way of putting it). I was immensely disappointed but glad to listen to his comments about Peterson because that was sufficient for me to take further study of his work off of my to-do list. Instead, I will invest that time in the work of those whose ability to maintain intellectual integrity I trust more. I think maybe the great value of Langan's much-touted IQ might be as an example of how over-confidence, or over-confidence drenched in belligerence, can neutralize one's gifts. I took Langan to task about his comments about Peterson and he blocked me on the TH-cam page where I made them, so what does that tell you?

I disagree with the CTMU. However, they certainly have a right to do their own thing in peace, and so I will go do my thing and all is fine. But I would like to leave you all with one observation. Nowhere in the entirety of the CTMU document, which is claimed to be complete, do we find this word : L O V E ..........................
The CTMU has no traction in a world that is more interconnected and has more people than ever. It derives most of its legitimacy from the high IQ score of its creator. Yes, academia is screwed up, but ironically, Mr. Langan's own special status generates an interest for his ideas that they could have never achieved on their own merit.
That’s pretty much true. Academia is a very flawed and to some extent corrupt system, but its the best that we have so far.
It it wasn’t for academia there wouldn’t be an IQ concept or test that Langan can boast about to begin with.
@@ElectricQualia just because that's true doesn't mean he isn't right nor does it mean that he system is necessarily wrong.

I used to be an atheist and I recently reaffirmed my childhood Christianity (I said you would see my viewpoint, but it appears you were correct). (Technically, this is for the benefit of other people that need to understand the universe in simplistic terms, not myself.) My incorrect opinion on that subject was merely due to a lack of data (not having a lot of life experience outside of solid brick buildings even to the age of 35 years old). At 35 years old I decided to stop and look at the world around me rather than constantly having my nose in books. At that point, my world literally went insane when I realized the true nature of the universe.
Unfortunately, I was recently poisoned and microwaved... multiple times (as part of the population culling that Trump is, apparently, supporting). This is having a major impact on my IQ, and honestly, if they keep doing it I will be dead soon. Sad, really. Humans will have lost their one chance at surviving the 21st century... me. I say good riddens. Humans do not deserve to exist. I am certain there are intelligent species elsewhere in the universe that are more deserving.
Welp, time to up your meds.
How have you solved the P NP problem ?
@@CookiePire I'm not going to share that because humans simply do not deserve the solution. Current human mathematics will lead you to the exact opposite conclusion (P != NP). This is because humans have *intentionally* accepted false premises into their mathematics. This is why humans do not deserve the answer. Even their mathematics lies. This will, ultimately, lead to their destruction. Humans are a species that does not care about truth.
@@kingt.hawkings32 Not even close, sorry. I regret being one of the driving forces behind modern machine learning. Humans will simply use this technology to enslave other humans. Humans are a stupid, greedy, lying species that do not deserve to exist. Once the nuke clouds settle and only radiation resistant bugs are left they will get one more chance to evolve into something intelligent (most likely a swarm based intelligence). Hopefully, they will realize that truth is more important than their swarm instincts. If not, they too will succumb to the same fate.
@@kingt.hawkings32 I don't see the Ying Yang Hypothesis video. Can you provide a full (not youtu.be) link? Honestly, I do not think there is anything that anyone could teach me about physics because I am so far beyond modern physics already.
No one is going to address how Chris Langan says that getting in fights in Kindergarten stopped him from being an academic? lol
Langan has a lot of chips on his shoulders, he's also a bullshitter.
The interviewer asked him a question and he answered it the best way he thought he could, with honesty. And yes he is right of course it plays a factor are you dumb?
It's nice that he's high iq but in all honesty what is bro yapping about 😂
Haha!
