ONCE AGAIN, from the perspective at the atomic scale, or even from perspective at the sub-atomic scale, this size of a human body, STILL REMAINS ALWAYS AT up to less than 10 feet, ONLY. Which means the so-called 'vast distance' that you speak of and are talking about, here, are, ACTUALLY, relativel...

Also, what has ANY or ALL of 'this' got to do with the Fact that just because IF 'we' SCALED UP A 'human body' that it then MEANS, for ABSOLUTELY SURE, that 'the information' FROM 'the toe' of A body to 'the brain' of A body WILL TAKE the EXACT SAME DURATION, as you CLAIM that it WILL? the scaling ...

you might well think, or even believe, from 'the toe' to 'the brain', at 'the scale' 'that body' is at 'now', when this is being written is a 'vast distance' and the journey traversed by information is 'a very short time', but what you think or BELIEVE has NO bearing AT ALL on what is ACTUALLY True...

So-called 'quantum entanglement' can never be proven, as the measurements needed could not take place. in this scenario i disagree, if we had a human scaled as mentioned earlier the reaction alone would suggest quantum entanglement, for information to travel that distance in such short time leaves ...

So let me explain why i referenced quantum mechanics, there was a study done by two scientists that looked at the similarities between the universe and the human body as a system of interconnected systems, and they found quite a few, self organisation was one, I'll see if i can find the report and ...

By the way, and contrary to the popular belief in the days when this is being written, there is NOTHING inconsistent WITH 'quantum mechanics' and the 'classical viewpoint' of the Universe. So let me explain why i referenced quantum mechanics, there was a study done by two scientists that looked at ...

I'm really going to have to stop thinking so much, now i realise that literally everything happens as i understand it in my own brain, audio, visual, tactile etc. Who and/or what is this 'my', EXACTLY which, supposedly, HAS or OWNS 'these things', here, like 'the brain', 'the audio', 'the visual', ...

I'm really going to have to stop thinking so much, now i realise that literally everything happens as i understand it in my own brain, audio, visual, tactile etc. Although i have accepted that accepting it is fine and that's what most people do anyway, i can't stop wondering what it actually looks,...

i guess, i mean it makes as much sense as any of this does now.

, i now have a very good reading list to start trying to understand this a little better and i thank you for that. You don't ever have to stop having some doubt. In fact I think you should. It shouldn't consume you though, and you shouldn't let the "matrix land" hypothesis become a certai...

In short, professional philosophers take skepticism seriously, but most don’t let it paralyze them. They find ways to justify treating experience as reliable without needing absolute certainty. Do any of these approaches resonate with you? yes, they all seem to make perfect sense in the just accept...

Radical skepticism is an important thought process for any thinker to go through. You should not get permanently stuck on it, however. If we are in some kind of "matrix", there's almost certainly no way out - you are a creature of this matrix and as such, this is your reality. Even if it'...
