December 18, 2006: 6:25 pm: adminMetaphysics, Law of Attraction Imagining the tenth dimension Recently I’ve been talking to many individuals who seem to entirely misunderstand the law of attraction, quantum physics, consciousness and what it all means. I had somebody ask me a week ago why they couldn’t turn a truck into an auto simply by thinking it. The thing to remember about all of this is that the human condition is entirely unpredictable. Science doesn't deal in proof, science deals in evidence supporting any theory. Trialing and measuring and then reevaluating prior theories is the bases of all science. Haveing said that, when we talk regarding the human condition and the role it plays in manifesting our reality the situation gets a little sticky. Einstein called it “;Spooky action at a distance” and scientists have been studying these effects for decades immediately. I discovered a good link to assist explain how the universe and multiple demensions work.

This is done to account for the contingency of substance: for if substance included "to be in itself" simply speaking and with no qualification, then it co uld never come to be or pass away. It's a development of ideas that are perfectly consistent with ideas in Aristotle, and can be unearthed in him- to say otherwise would require the absurd claim that Aristotle thought that substance was not contingent. --> No Comments : 5:28 pm: Assimilatio DeiInspirational News jumbles on Empiricism By a number of accounts of the word "empiricist", I am one, as is each thomist: even the ideas infused by God in us as seminal principles are gathered from sensation. Since it's a man that knows, it's a bodily thing that knows (even the possibility of a guy were to be granted a vision beyond sensation, as Paul was, he would not realize it was he who had the vision). However if empiricism is said in relation to experience, I hold the thomist more an empiricist that the later Brits: for universals are given by internal experience too- not hazy pictures, however one thing that's truly said of a lot. A fuzzy picture cannot be said of a lot, whether it's in consciousness or not. --> No Comments : 5:28 pm: Assimilatio DeiInspirational News Jottings on Motion -We say something is moving when we see that it's continually other and other; when it isn't in any state, however continually otherwise and otherwise than prior to. -I become more and more proved that one cannot understand anything about ancient or medieval philosophy with no getting a great look at why they thought motion was such an odd and remarkable thing: with a number of even going so far as to deny it existed. Given that "to be" is opposed to "to become", how can motion, or becoming, be something? If we divide being in 2, how do we divide it? -What about local motion? The mobile can begin here and end there, however where is it in between? It's certainly in a general place, like in a room, however where is it in particular? A physicist might say, of a number of time during the motion, "at time X it was at point T"; and this may be true, however it's still paradoxical, since at time X it was both at point T, however also changing- however what could it possibly mean to be changing at a point? Said another way, how can something be changing place while it's in/ at a place? and beyond this, even the possibility of we grant the statement of the physicist, that it's at point X at time T, this still tells us not a thing regarding the motion as motion, for motion isn't what is happening when something is at or in a number of place or state, however what is happening when it's between these "at's". Similar considerations also apply to each move from this to that, or going from this to that: going from one color to one more, or one size to one more. -To say that motion is being at each point, even the possibility of it were true, would tell us not a thing about motion as such. Whether the points are infinite or not makes no difference. --> No Comments —; Following Page » Subscribe in a reader Pages: Regarding The Believe Factor LOA GEAR sitemap Categories:
