RE: The Origin Of Nothing

in #steemstem6 years ago

Thanks for leaving this great comment, @alignment. You're diving in a bit deeper than I do in this post. What is reality? You say this:

Math is actually the language we use to facilitate our interpretation and handling of physical phenomena...

So, what I took as reality is what most of us do in everyday life: physical phenomena. This is the reality we all share and it is the reality most "hard sciences" deal with. But... through these hard sciences, mostly theoretical physics, we have come to understand that maybe information is the fundamental building-block of reality, and not "particles of matter"; so now we even have things like "simulation theory" and "the holographic universe" being supported by many prominent physicists.

Look, we can even go so far as to say that the act of "labeling" stuff, with words or numbers is a giant limitation of reality as it exists; I've read your latest post about "meaning" and think it's great. It's just not the level at which this post is supposed to be read or understood. I recently have written a bunch of posts about the nature of reality and the many debates, some centuries old, that are spawned by the question what reality is exactly. For a better answer to your question I would suggest you read my latest post on the topic: The Language Of The Universe: Discovered Or Invented?.

Thanks once again for this well thought out reaction, @alignment! :-)
