JON:
I've always liked that old quote: "You never step in the same river twice."
ROGER:
Science and truth are a very high quality. But again, as Godel, Heisenberg,
Bohr, Shroedinger and Whitehead came to realize, the intellect's inherent
subject/object duality distorts, deletes, divides, and omits much of the
reality it attempts to understand. The world of science/intellect (and of
this forum) is in the end, both incomplete and uncertain
JON:
What troubles me, Roger, is that many scientists absolutely 100% refuse to
belief in anything that can't be "proven" to exist. Certainly you have
encountered this type of person before? They generally have no use for
philosophy or metaphysics.
Do you think that there is any aspect of reality that will *never* be
detectable by science? I do. I think this is where the main division is.
