Inertia of the soul [Idiocy of SDR ]

Hey Painius
I see you're mixing it up with SDR. You're gonna have some
real fun with this dude. His definition of space is "where matter isn't"
(unless he's changed his view, which i doubt). Ask him to explain the
literal mechanism of gravity, without resorting to abstracts or
'metrics'.

Ha!... no, you ol' coot... no way i'd mix it up with ol' Rodan.
I'm not even close to being in his league. I could have *never*
come up with such a grand "pita" remark. Besides, Rodrian
likes those quasi-realtime conversations, the kind that i can
only rarely enjoy due to my job. Most others understand that
i sometimes get busy and have to be away for days at a time.
This would only bore the ol' reptile.

And anyway, i already know why he keeps asking about
inertia...

....he's looking for a cure. g

happy days and...
starry starry nights!

What can a person say?

Ugh. Keemo sabe... ?

Hi oc Can't we say the brain is "all" and could we think of the
"soul" like "free will" Do you think computers someday will have
a soul? Well the father of the computer was Alan Turing and he was
convinced that computers would have consciousness. Still I hate when a
computer tells me my call is important to it. Next I hate when it tells
me to have a nice day. Go figure(computers do that best) Bert PS
Like Darla could not fix her space ships space drive How many of us can
fix their computer?

From Bert:

=A0 =A0 =A0 Well the father of the computer
was Alan Turing and he was convinced
that computers would have
consciousness.

Well, 'consciousness' does not appear to be based on the binary 'on-off'
code of computers. Rather, the brain and mind appear to operate more on
the holographic principle. There is a wealth of info on this,
particularly in the work of Bohm and Pribram. You are dead set against
Googling, but here is a sample anyway- http://twm.co.nz/pribram.htm

Wolter said that binary-based computers, no matter how sophisticated or
powerful, will never amount to more than a "souped-up adding machine".
For a computer to attain anything resembling consciousness or 'soul' it
would have to be holographically based. oc

Hi oc It is to bad Turing killed himself at 42 for he would be best to
answer you. I'm probably talking over my head but first let me say man
does not know what conscious reality really is. Could we program a
computer as 1 meaning "true" and everything or 0 meaning "false or
nothing (tricky stuff) I have questions like are computers getting
smarter or are they merely becoming more adaptable and versatile? I'm so
stupid I would not even know the difference. Well oc this
gives me tomorrows "what if" Bert
