This is a blog that takes the name of my magnum opus on scientific philosophy called "The Scientific Worldview." Reviewers have called it “revolutionary,” “exhilarating,” “magnificent,” “fascinating,” and even “a breathtaking synthesis of all understanding.” There is very little math in it, no religion, no politics, no psycho-babble, and no BS. It provides the first outline of the philosophical perspective that will develop during the last half of the Industrial-Social Revolution.

[FAQ] Why can't people post comments on my blog?
The Blogger / Google login status, and the ability to post comments, is sensitive to both cookie and script filters. Your readers may need to enable (stop filtering) "third party cookies", in their browser and on their computer. The effects of the newly unavoidable CAPTCHA, and the Google "One account" login, requires third party cookies, even more than before.

Third party cookies filtering, in a browser setting, is the most common solution, overall - but your readers may have to search for other filter(s) that affect their use of Blogger / Google.
Any filters are subject to update, by the creator. If the problem started a few days ago, your readers may have to look on their computers, and find out what product or accessory was updated, a few days ago.

As scientists we argue for evidence or point out lack of evidence. That is all we can do, although there are other logical arguments against immaterialism starting with "nothing" as a concept.
ReplyDeleteThere is a reason for such acts of desperation, like Tyson took: Quantum mechanics seems to work, and no one has developed an experiment to show how it fails... until now. I do beam-split coincidence tests using gamma-rays, and coincident clicks happen at rates much greater than chance. QM predicts chance, like a photon should go one way or another at a beam-splitter. This means there are no photons; just light. However, to explain our particle-like effects we conclude there is an energy=hf threshold at the instant of emission and for resonant absorption up to threshold hf. Please see thresholdmodel.com Thanks
