The Last Magicians

Isaac Newton was described as the “last magician”. In fact, all scientists are the last magicians. They believe that things can happen randomly – for no reason – just like magic!

When will they become enlightened and enter the Age of Reason where everything has a sufficient reason? When will they leave behind scientific superstition and faith and embrace mathematical rationalism?

The Question

One of the primary tasks of philosophy is to ask, “What do you mean by that?” Philosophy is terrified of science and so refuses to ask the most basic questions. For example, it’s all very well for scientists to say that time is what you measure with a clock, but in fact that reveals neither what time is nor what a clock is.

Well, what is a clock? It’s an instrument for measuring time. What is time? It’s a quantity measured by a clock. Do you see the complete circularity of these definitions? We do not discover what time is at all. An undefined entity is labelled time and then we are given an instrumental means of measuring this undefined entity. We are no further forward in knowing what time is, but, crucially, we have a means of attaching a number, a measurement, a quantity to this undefined thing called time. We can now use it as if it were a defined quantity because we have a definite number that we can substitute into any equation involving time. So, we generate a whole set of useful but circular instrumental definitions that tell us nothing about reality but are in perfect accordance with experimentation, which is all about measurement (and nothing to do with explanation).

Science does not and cannot ontologically define space, time, mass, energy, speed or anything else. It’s a system of interlocking, reasonably self-consistent instrumental definitions that do not intersect with ontological explanations at any time.

Philosophy ought to turn its full attention towards scientific materialism and blow it to smithereens, exposing it for what it is: a system of useful measurements that tells us nothing about the true nature of reality.

In terms of quantum mechanics, the cosmic wavefunction is the source of all motion in the world and, in truth, it’s mental, not physical. The so-called material world is simply the output, the instant-by-instant crystallisation, of the mental wavefunction.

All the minds of the universe – all monads – constitute individual nodes of this cosmic mental wavefunction. They are what power the cosmic wavefunction. Materialism has nothing to do with it. Matter is always passive and always devoid of true motion. It’s simply a mental phenomenon, a projection of mind.
