  • ........the physical system is an emergence from DNA replicating and evolving and creating biological machines to carry out the function of replicating, yet my conciousness is not the conciousness of my DNA. why should our minds care whether or not our DNA is passed on? lol

    not much point to my rant, pretty high lol

  • "our minds are emergent" you say. my mind has emerged from a physical system, yet it is not itself the physical system but a manifestation of it. my mind is something abstract and untangible existing totally outside reality in a world of colour, sound and touch, which are just abstract concepts of the mind. (in reality there are electro-magnetic waves, vibrations of air particles ect) when the physical system stops functioning the mind ceases to exist.........

  • interesting video

  • Very good video. It appears that we may have similar educational backgrounds...

  • Cool. :)

    I'm fond of emergence atm -- it reminds us that we can't always extrapolate. Some systems are so complex we just have to see what they do, and try to react accordingly.

    Many fundamentalists don't understand this basic mathematical idea, but I think it's necessary for the universe to make sense.
