Hello Craig.
10 Feb. you cited Dan's:

Agree about Einstein. I don't know if Dan's statement was meant
to be MOQ-based, i.e: that he thinks that the S/O (mind/matter)
chasm is bridged by the said equation, but that is not so. It's a
purely scientific (intellectual) thing, uniting energy and matter (as
Craig says) which were worlds apart in Newtonian Physics.
Hi Bo
Good to hear from you! The MOQ states that both sides are right on the
mind-matter debate, or so I gather. Einstein showed that energy and matter
are not two separate "things" as had been assumed.
The
MOQ does however bridge the S/O chasm in the SOL
interpretation by relegating S/O the role of its own intellectual
level, which means that it only exists as an aggregate
....METAPHYSICALLY seen. At the intellectual level however
subjective-mind and objective-matter are treated as separate
entities and the twain shall never meet there. Goodness forbid
because that is what has created out modern world.
[Dan]
There are no subjects and objects. Thus there is no subject-object chasm.
Subjects and objects are simply a great shorthand for patterns of value.
Thank you for your comments,
Dan
