Yes, but we're just back to a debate on the meaning of the word
explain, how, why, etc.
Which is where we started 8 years ago Platt, and I'm more interested
in honesty than word games.

Platt
8 years ago? Your memory is a lot better than mine. Did you then explain how
emergence explains anything? Please refresh my memory.

Platt.

Hi Platt, you said

"[Emergence] only describes what happened".

Which is good surely, ie it's honest and empirical ?
Any explanation that doesn't would therefore be dishonest.

Hi Ian,

But it doesn't explain anything. Isn't that what science is supposed to do?
