@AEVautomatic One more slanderous comment and you are out of here.

I didn't mean to imply that you did, but just using "leftist" as an unqualified, blanket term is not a good way to go about classifying intellectual positions. However about your point on Ayn Rand, her philosophy was empty, calous, and devoid of intellectual merit. Objectivism was basically like a religion that promoted self-interest above all. It wasn't rational, scientific or well, objective. The void left by organized religion should not be filled with marxism or objectivism.

I found that most of this video went right over my head. Mainly because I have not studied the philosophers that were mentioned and their thoughts on these issues. Which is also why I have come here, to seek knowledge and understand more in depth the things I am interested in. My father was an intense thinker & philosopher and once told me that most everything in this world is based on or can be explained by mathmatics. At least I think that's what he said, or something of that nature.

@AEVautomatic how is he racist? This is about relativism.

@northernvoxmedia I never said thats why it works. The concept of "why" is subjective and irrelevant to the question. You seem to be arguing that souls exist without being aware of it. Or are you just against Predeterminism? I have just the solution, its called Compatibilism. You are free to act as you choose but your motives are ultimately caused by physical laws.

multi-layered Universe empirically proven to be true? Could you expand on that?

@megadrummer2 I always leave links for further reading and studying. The main premise of this video is that there are people out there who want to make you believe that universal truth is basically impossible for various reasons. So for example it would be impossible to truly be able to measure the world because our understanding of reality is limited. Of course, while humans have to keep developing their understanding it is nonsense to state that something like science is fundamentally flawed
