Necessary Thing
#99
RE: Necessary Thing
I believe existence is eternal. I believe existence is necessary. I believe existence cannot not exist by definition. I believe the universe is deterministic and the indeterministic explanations of quantum mechanics are best understood that way but the universe itself is deterministic. I believe the universe is logical. I believe things make sense. I believe mathematics is the best way to explain things that often appear not to make sense to our intuitive primate brains and that the quantum universe seems like a whole separate universe when really there can only be one and it must be deterministic and logical. I believe that the only sense that there is more than one universe is some sort of multiverse model but then if the totality of the entire multiverse(s) is not called the universe then define "universe". Existence is eternal, deterministic, logical, necessary.

All of this is my belief. The universe is not from "nothing" regardless of what the physicist Lawrence Krauss said, it is merely that the absolutely correct and vital scientific method often simplifies matters by redefining terms, even when it does so with equivocation and a fallacy if we do not recognize this -- because the original terms and definitions are unhelpful to science. "empty space" is not empty and despite the fact atoms are definition unsplitable atoms can be split. Such is the way of science but the important thing is that the method is effective, produces results and science has evidence. Its method is more important than semantics. Semantics is for philosophy and linguistics (I suck at the latter (if not also the former)). Mathematics also gets wonderful results which is why the calculations of quantum mechanics are so awesome even if we intuitively are incapable of grasping it because the "quantum universe" is "not only queerer than we suppose but queerer than we can suppose" and even if it causes people to make the fallacy of assuming that this universe is not deterministic merely because the mathematical calculations of quantum mechanics are "random" or "indeterministic" in a sense. in a sense. It's important not to equivocate. Indeterministic observations and "random" processes still exist in a sense at least in an (at least) somewhat pseudo way even within a deterministic universe

This is all what I believe I believe.

As for "existence itself must exist and cannot not exist" that part at least I believe I know, it's just like I know that "all bachelors are unmarried". If existence must not necessarily not exist then that implies the possibility of "existence itself could possibly be non-existent" and... "A nonexistent existence" -- what the fuck are you talking about?!.

Lol soz if I ended rudely people are welcome to believe existence itself doesn't have to exist by definition but I still don't know what that belief even means. Logically incoherent IMO.
