Where do you find misunderstandings in the paradoxes I wrote above? Are you suggesting science finds the universe nonrandom, nonchaotic with meaningful (purposeful) events? Or that models of evolution, for example, include the all modeler's feelings, memories and thoughts? After explaining the misunderstandings, try these: The present never changes, but everything that changes changes in the present. and The theory that all is matter and energy consists of neither energy nor matter. ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through IMP: http://horde.org/imp/ moq_discuss mailing list Listinfo, Unsubscribing etc. http://lists.moqtalk.org/listinfo.cgi/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org Archives: http://lists.moqtalk.org/pipermail/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org/ http://moq.org.uk/pipermail/moq_discuss_archive/
