Jones— Its “Tit for Tat” or “Quid Pro Quo” as some would have it. 😊
Maybe even the “Word” is all that is. Words are not real—kinda-like information with a sole stemming from the speaker’s mind. Any natural law of the universes is non-real and is equal to “the truth”—“the Word”. This information is an abstraction, and within the batch of abstractions labeled theologies-- this one about natural laws is called pantheism. Einstein was said to harbor pantheistic ideas. The idea first seemed to be recorded as information by the Greeks and may have influenced Jesus’s non-materialistic ideas as well. Regarding mass—Jurg’s SO(4) physics explains that mass is associated with the rotation of magnetic flux—close to the idea of a rotating magnetic field on a toroidal surface with a femtometer order of size in familiar 3-d space.

Instead, information has mass, physicist says From: Terry Blanton<mailto:hohlr...@gmail.com> bigthink.com<http://bigthink.com>: https://bigthink.com/surprising-science/dark-matter-theory This is a very provocative idea – that information has actual mass…guess that is why it is featured on a site called “the big think”… The concept also relates to LENR in a back door way – since Holmlid suggests that matter can be completely annihilated or turned into energy. Is this the modern version of “book burning”?? The author of the piece, Philip Perry did not claim exactly that dark matter or the black hole is a repository of information, but that is the implication. OTOH another article by Philip suggests that Jesus (yes, that Jesus) used Cannabis for some of his miracle cures. This kind of lateral thinking made me want to immediately sign up to get the blog until I noticed how many trackers it had already tried to install. Anyway, there is a pregnant thought from Wheeler is particularly resonant: “There was perhaps no greater proponent of information theory than another unsung paragon of science, John Archibald Wheeler<https://futurism.com/john-wheelers-participatory-universe>. Wheeler was part of the Manhattan Project, worked out the "S-Matrix" with Niels Bohr and helped Einstein develop a unified theory of physics. In his later years, he proclaimed, "Everything is information." Then he went about exploring connections between quantum mechanics and information theory….He also coined the phrase "it from bit" or that every particle in the universe emanates from the information locked inside it. At the Santa Fe Institute in 1989, Wheeler announced that everything, from particles to forces to the fabric of spacetime itself "… derives its function, its meaning, its very existence entirely … from the apparatus-elicited answers to yes-or-no questions, binary choices, bits<https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/cross-check/why-information-cant-be-the-basis-of-reality/>." END quote. Too bad the website itself has not been designed to honor privacy concerns or to function well on Firefox browser. Makes one wonder if MS/Google did not insert the background trackers as a tit for tat … which is kind of ironic, given the subject matter.
