While I respect your devotion to the absolute of the possible - aliens aren't going to land on earth in two minutes and hand us advanced technology fundamentally changing our world view as a species - that's not practical. Would it be better if I stated that it is extremely unlikely that in the foreseeable near future we will be able to prove that anything exists beyond what we can observe and interaction with directly or otherwise? You're arguing semantics.

And yes, it is a philosophical argument in my opinion since it can not be verified empirically - we've crossed from the tangible to the esoteric.

I think the way Nassim demonstrates it is wrong in his assumptions. That boundary would be a soft boundary and move with the frame of reference, the bubbles would move with the point of view of the observer. This is of course all mathematical simulation of physics. That's probably the most simplified way of seeing it. I couldn't begin to really grasp the math at it. But the abstract is there. It would be something worthy to look into. In his lectures he asserts you couldn't possibly pass up a boundary, but only down a boundary. I think that's incorrect, and that the boundaries aught to be represented more holographically, maybe simultaneously co-existing, and indeed, there is no boundary at all if your near the edge. You only perceive such boundaries. And add in the idea that as above, so below, the universe/nature is fractal (this is just a perceptual, constant). You would get an ideal model. A easy example of what I'm talking about is: As you move your universe changes gradually, but you could leave the universe behind. I.e. your origin can pass beyond your boundary. At which point you are no longer in the old known universe. Probably at these points you might see duplication or replication. A further affect would be that... you are being reached by photons while, in the past, that are from the extreme boundry of your current universe, and that information is constantly there. You don't have to physically be at the end of the universe to see it. Time complicates things obviously and this is were I fall at conceptualizing space/time. And probably were Einstien kicks ass. Currently improvable to an extent. Yet if you look at the far away background radiation of the galaxy you see what visually represents the same picture as a Nueral network. See Chandra X Ray observatory: http://chandra.harvard.edu/press/05_releases/press_040805.html If you think about it. One day, we'll be able to map enough of the sky to see that this observation does have some evidence backing it up. Currently we don't. But the theory is sound at the moment. As the ideas are based in current known scientific models. I'm sure we'll refine them over the years. But the basic abstract concepts aught to not change much. If they do, that will be an eye opener. | |||

And the whole point of my TLDR double post, is that some philosophy can be backed up by science. See chandra/dark matter.

meaning yeah, some empirical thought beyond philosophy. to say you cant empirically prove a philosophical point is kinda illogical.
