Long responses are, in my opinion, nothing to apologize for. The more you describe your reality, the easier it is for me to understand it. I’ll respond fully tomorrow. But what gives me the biggest insight into your thinking is the first sentence of your response. Why can’t you see it any other way?...

Yes, it is. I'll do it right here with your last post. My post didn't say anything about persuading me of anything. It says that, if I got it wrong, you should be able to easily to post an explanation of how I was wrong. Like I just did in this post with your last comment. Simply asserting "I didn'...

When we use voting machines, are partisan observers allowed to come into the booth to watch us vote? Wow! Is that what Ajax meant -- that partisan workers should be allowed to come into the booth to watch us vote? Of course that would be wrong! That is something we would expect only of absolute des...

If I got it wrong, you should easily be able to correct me. But you won't. Because it would show that you are relying on some trivial difference. That's not true. It's almost impossible to correct people unless they want to think otherwise. :D Yes, it is. I'll do it right here with your last post. ...

Do you really think you're the first anti-science, anti-education, gadfly to wander in here. You're not just "talking." You're asserting straight up nonsense.

Okay, how so?

I don't know how. I think it has something to do with the arrogance of ignorance.

What did you assert?

Go read it a few posts up.

Valo, buddy, we've got to talk. I asked the question about the aether because it was part of the Davidic Servant's explanation of gravity. Remember in another thread you talk about an engine and tracking all the parts that go into an engine? If somebody starts talking about bananas and chisels as c...

That's not what the Schroedinger's cat thought experiment shows. It does not assert that the observer has any control over whether the cat is alive or dead when the box is opened. Nor can the observer effect the result of the double slit experiment through force of will. PG can correct me, but what...

And the reason the DS is talking about the aether is that it is mentioned twice in the Bible, right? I have no idea. You are scared of new ideas aren't you? :D LOL! You're not talking about new ideas. The aether is a very old idea. You're confusing ideas you've encountered recently with new ideas. ...

If there are always observers, then your reference to Schroedinger's cat is meaningless. The observer gets to determine their reality. It's not set in stone, maybe. That's not what the Schroedinger's cat thought experiment shows. It does not assert that the observer has any control over whether the...
