RE: Cosmology from Quantum Potential
This may seem off the subject, but conservation of mass-energy must not be correct, otherwise our Universe could not have become so large (in terms of both mass and energy). With the recognition of the existence of tronnies, everything in our Universe can be explained very simply. Explanations of our Universe based on the quark model are much more complicated. I suppose it is possible that the quark model is correct and that my model is incorrect. Until someone provides some proof that my model is basically flawed, I am sticking with it. As an example the quark model presumes that there are neutrons in the nuclei of stable atoms. But neutrons have a half-life to 10.23 minutes. I have shown that all stable and long-lived atoms can be constructed with alpha particles (59 for uranium 236), electrons (26 for uranium 236), up to three protons (zero for U-236) and gamma ray entrons (a total of 297.15 MeV for U-236). You know what happens to some of those gamma ray entrons when U-236 splits. U-235 is comprised of 58 alpha particles, three protons and 27 electrons and 293.42 MeV of gamma ray entrons. When it absorbs a neutron it either fissions or the proton in the neutron combines with the three protons to produce an additional (the 59th)alpha particle in U-236. The electron in the neutron becomes the 28th electron in the U-236 isotope. U-236 has a half-life of 2.342 X 107 years and decays with an alpha particle.

RE: Cosmology from Quantum Potential
There are no limits to space and there are no limits to time (both past and future). There are limits in time for our Universe. Our universe was born with the Big Bang about 13.8 billion years ago and it will be destroyed in another Big Bang many billion years from now. ( I estimate the lifetime of our Universe at 100 billion years, so we have a while to go.) Our Universe replaced our predecessor universe and our Universe will be replace by our successor universe. There are also limits to space in our Universe because our Universe is surrounded by a cold plasma shell. That reflects most radiation to produce the cosmic background radiation that fills our Universe. I am not sure you gain anything by assuming that the laws of physics “exists”. The laws of physics as I understand them are merely human attempts to explain how our Universe and the Cosmos operates. It is our Universe and the Cosmos that exists. Our Universe did not exist prior to the Big Bang and it will not exist after the Big Bang that will destroy it. However, our successor universe will exist and our predecessor universe did exist prior to the Big Bang. I define the Cosmos as everything that exists, has existed in the past and will exist in the future. I believe that there was a time, long, long ago, before there was anything when there was nothing, just empty space. This to me seems perfectly logical.

I can only repeat what I said before: 'My position is that the idea that you can explain the origin of "a universe from nothing" is absurd.' Either you have pre-existing laws and substrate -- which is not 'nothing' -- or the universe just "pops" spontaneously, and laws, etc, are just descriptions of observed regularities in whatever has "popped". You don't have many other options. The other popular option (in both religion and physics) is that the universe is eternal and no "popping" is needed. Some are eternal and infinite and others are eternal and cyclic. This is true, of course, and changes the question (slightly) - "Why does the eternal universe, and its laws of physics, exist?" A conspiration made by the numbers 0, 1, 2, 3, 8, sqrt(2), e, pi, i, gamma, 24 and 808,017,424,794,512,875,886,459,904,961,710,757,005,754,368,000,000,000, tries to make you believe so. (The big number is the number of elements of the Monster group, and is related to the Moonshine conjecture; which gives light on some shortcut between number theory and physics, and groups, and measures, ...). Anyway, if that is true, that has to be justified by the self-introspecting universal machine. And that gives a piece of formalism (S4Grz1, Z1*, X1*), so we get some light and testing abilities. Liz, could you please remind me which hat you put during month with "r". For the purposes of discussion with Mr Ross, it has to be a "primary materialist" one.

It's always been clear that Bruno's work is effectively an enquiry into whether something as apparently simple as first-order arithmetical relations are nonetheless a sufficient ontological basis for the full range of observable phenomena.

Alternatively we could put the assumption to the test, or perhaps more realistically, continue to follow with interest Bruno's indefatigable investigation of its possible consequences. As with any hypothesis, any securely established conflict with the empirical facts would suffice to invalidate it. Contrariwise, especially given the startling (but certainly not unmotivated) simplicity of the assumption, the longer it can resist refutation the more interesting it may begin to look.

Again, with computationalism, faith is "meta-justified" by the fact that all (Löbian) machines cannot avoid the discovery that truth, if it exists, extends vastly what they can justify or explain. It is a faith in some truth, and then some people fill it with legend and fairy tales, which is perhaps a not bad beginning, unless they fall in the trap of literalism, which can transform an inspiring guide into an obstacle for the approach toward truth. I don't know why you refer to it as faith. It is provable that there are true but unprovable propositions in arithmetic. The faith step is assuming arithmetic.

Kind of like gnosticism, maybe. 2+2=4 is enough. No need to add unnecessary metaphysics. This is not controversial, although not well known by philosophers, logicians know this since Gödel, Kleene, etc. What is not trivial is that it leads to "new equation" for fundamental physics (given by the FPI, translated in the intensional variant of self-reference, making comp testable in some sense). The succeeding universes and each cosm has a god will be succeedingly better. But this does not make sense. Universe are not things which exists ontologically. People get moved to better universes after croaking, akin to processes getting pipelined as with software engineering. We would be one on a gigantic processes, aka programs, aka cellular automata, that are copied and then initiated later. As with Bostrom, steinhart says that these programs, us, eventually begin their own sim creations. I got this from steinharts other papers I have been studying. So your critique of steinharts 1st mind or god, would not find opposition with him, but it would suggest that evolution (to me) must be a primary program. Thanks for your coment. Once you bet on programs (computationalism) you belongs to infinities of computations, and the appearance of the universe emerges from a statistics on all computations. Bostrom participated to this list but seems to not have yet taken into account the first person indeterminacy (FPI). He and others told me at some meeting that this what sort of taboo. A part of his argument can still be saved, as indeed comp implies that we can test [Computationalism OR we are in a purposeful simulation, with entities which consume an infinite amount of energy to lie to us, as they must change our minds each time we look at the details of the simulation].

A simulated hurricane is smarter at predicting what a real hurricane will do than the meteorologist who created the simulation, and a simulated Chess grandmaster is smarter at Chess than the real Chess grandmaster who wrote the Chess program. And even if the simulation argument is true (and the restriction on the number of calculations that can be performed in the observable universe may rule out infinite levels, unless that restriction was just tacked on by our simulators) you wouldn't have all the knowledge that the infinite number of simulations below you have.
