Here is the big sell, then. You have to somehow demonstrate to the human race that we are a universal person. Best of British, old son! The math alone maybe will convince another mathematician, but without your guiding values, they will fail to see the big picture we are sketching here, and instead will prefer to slap you down for it!

But that's exactly the problem. There are no "guiding values" in the math. Bruno holds values I share and so he reads into his theory nice ideas I approve of - but I don't think they are entailed by the math, or the logic, and I suspect they can't be. If you can't even derive physics and Darwinian evolution, how can you hope to derive anti-abortion laws or polygamy or legalizing heroin?
