Just tell me what you don't understand in the reasoning.

At least I tell you what I assume, and expose the derivation, so you can tell what it is that you are missing.

I have not that chance. I still don't know what are your assumptions.



it seems logical to claim that Edgar does't answer questions without actually counting the number of questions I have and haven't answered compared to the others on this group.

I was asking "what do you mean by "computational"".

You still avoid this issue, despite it seems to be used at the start in your "theory".




If you had any understanding of empirical evidence and scientific method you would quickly arrive at the correct conclusion that none of these 3 postulates are true. But I won't be holding my breath waiting for that to happen!

Which is again an insult. So instead of taking the opportunity to clarify your assumption, you reply by insulting. I feel sorry, but you do confirm the "troll theory".

No. You have insulted many people a long time before they react to the
insult. You arrive in a list, and you don't seem to have follow any
previous thread. people suggested you to read the UDA, which makes
your statement incompatible with computationalism, but it remains
unclear if your statements fit or not with computationalism, as you
don't define the term "computation" that you are using.

That was not an insult, but a question related to your way to insult
people, and of never addressing their question, except by mocking them
with an insulting tone.

Tell us your assumption clearly. Tell us what you mean by
"computational", and this without invoking some "reality", as
computation, like most usable concept, is defined independently of any
ontology, except for some infinite set of finitely specifiable objects
(like strings, numbers, combinators, programs, ...).

A computation is what a computer do. You said that "reality computes".
Are you saying that "reality" is a computer? Is it a mathematical
