Is the statement "Claims demand evidence" always true?
RE: Is the statement "Claims demand evidence" always true?
Computationally, timing is a non issue.  Discrepancy between variable timings (if there even -are- variable ticks in the system) is handled by registers.  In the event that they -cannot- be resolved there is no shortage of processes with which to handle the error. Our computers (deplorably lacking examples of the set if our brains are computers as well) manage to deal with timing related issues all day erryday. They pose no insurmountable problem to a calculator, and this leaves me wondering why they would pose any greater a problem to our minds.

I'd leverage the same response even if I didn't think that our minds were computational, as an example of how a known object handles the problem in question. It may be that our minds do it differently, but it;s obvious that such problems -can be- handled. That any questions related to timing may be interesting, but are not fundamentally unresolvable. Ergo, they cannot be used, as objections, to argue against the possibility or probability of any explanation "x".

I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
