I'm sitting here trying to explain something you requested in a language that you can understand and you respond by telling me that I should have just said "I don't know."
You think that I just pulled this shit out of my ass and haven't spent the last 30 to 40 years researching metaphysics, physics, philosophy, science, art, history, etc etc etc..
I'm no stranger to Robert Anton Wilson's radical agnosticism. So I'll do what you want. I don't know. I don't know that atoms exist, or air, or love. I don't know any of this, but I have a strong suspicion, just like I had a strong suspicion all along with this would be a waste of my time and you just wanted to one up somebody.
That genuinely did not read like thoughts that have been developing for 40 years. It sounded like you made the whole thing up on the spot.
Why not actually respond to what they said, instead of saying "ChatGPT likes it, I've been researching for years and you're just mean, what a waste of time"?
They made actual points. Be a good philosopher and discuss.
You clearly spent 30-40 years researching nonsense if those are the unsupported conclusions you reached. I don't think the few minutes wasted on this conversation is the real concern.
You have invented woo-based flights of fancy that have no basis in reality and which are entirely unsupported. Label them metaphysical, spiritual, or religious if you'd like. Can you test you hypothesis regarding consciousness or sine waves? Can it be measured or demonstrated? Your comments seem to indicate that it cannot, and if you cannot support it with evidence, why do you believe it?
Your entire epistemology can be summed up with "I'd like to believe that...". May I suggest instead...empiricism? Otherwise my idea that the entire universe is made of tiny invisible dragons that are the basis of reality while also existing outside of space and time and breathing cold fire and pooping out black holes is equally reasonable. I mean, I just feel that it's true, and you would too if you weren't so damned close minded. After all, space is cold, black holes exist and you don't see the dragons... The evidence is everywhere!
I didn't invent any of this. I parsed it for your benefit in a goddamn forum post. Your lack of understanding is your own problem. Blocked.
No one said you invented woo, but you subscribe to it. Nothing you said in any of your posts was ever actual evidence though.
