Dear Bruno,
Why do you not consider an isomorphism between the Category of
computer/universal-numbers and physical realities? That way we can
avoid a lot of problems!
I think that it is because of your insistence of the Platonic
view that the material/physical realm is somehow lesser in
ontological status and the assumption that a timeless totality =
the appearance of change (and its measures) is illusory. I would
like to be wrong in this presumption!
The problem is that assuming the material / physical realm as
fundamental gets you no further than assuming that "God did it!"
It's a "shut up and calculate" (or shut up and pray) ontology.
With materialism you just have a "brute fact" - well, maybe that's
it, maybe there is just a brute, unexplained fact. But us ape
descended life forms like to look for explanations even beneath the
apparent brute facts!
But "Everything happens" is just as useless as "God did it".
1) "everything happens" is just inconsistent.
2), with comp, we have a solid notion of everything (the UD*), but it
does not explain anything, it is used on the contrary to show how to
reduce the mind-body problem into a "belief problem" in pure
arithmetic. And this explain the quantum aspect of nature, but not yet
the "symplectic" aspect of nature.
Bruno
A theory that can explain anything fails to explain at all.
