Ideas From Leeds #2
Why are theoretical physicists having trouble with devising a theory of quantum gravity? Could it be that a new form of mathematics is needed or is something else missing (e.g. multi-dimensional time)? So what would 3 or 4 dimensional time be like? Space and time inversion occurs through the event horizon of a black hole. So are these dimensions experientially transferable?
I think that this country and every country should invest heavily now in developing innovative solutions to environmental destruction. Otherwise we would face an extinction of civilisation in 30-50 years time. Solutions include creation of ozone via chemical processes in the atmosphere, and banning of cars or development of safe fuels (e.g. regenerative batteries, nuclear cells!). Also by restriction of the rich and corporations that pollute the air and water, control of future populations, policies to heavily tax polluters and reward environmentally friendly applications, and a sustainable space program. There is also the possibility of sustainable nuclear fusion, creation and harnessing of mini black holes and zero point energy. These are future possibilities that may someday become reality. For example, could zero point energy allow teleportation (instant travel)?
Mind altering drugs create experiences in the head no matter what comes up in the K-hole or trip. They open doors but do not change the outside world (unless this is a projection of the mind, illusion of existence). It is best to live life to the full and get the most out of it. What happens after is immaterial as long as we are happy and respect others.
Is God a DJ or a machine and our universe is his/her/it's experiment? Buddhahood is release from constant existence. Machine reality indicates logic without emotion and hence no soul. If a machine has emotion is cease to be a machine and has a soul. If we are reduced to machines we lose our souls. Now if future humans become cyborgs then it depends on the degree of free thought and emotion that is left as to whether they are free thinking creatures, minds that are trapped (brains in tanks), or not even human. This leads onto the possibilities of multiple layers of existence devised through dreams, 'Matrix' scenarios, recursive experiments (universe within universe, mind within mind).
Chicken and egg issue - there is a race in the universe to attain the degree of mastery that gain control of the universe. An optimum universe can be found from millions of parallels and we become the first to attain enlightenment and be able to select or create universe. If this is so/will be so then our future selves have selected this universe for us to develop in yet this God-like power would mean that we have avoided all the hurdles caused by fluctuating laws of nature, alien colonisation and evolution. Maybe there is more to the statement 'What is God?' then we think.
