The Limits of Possible Explanation

[Edward]

This string is very interesting to me, and what Mark has said, I can tell, is going to be very instrumental in my own theories. Because I think he's wrong and right at the same time. The set of all things cannot contain within itself the explanation of itself. However, there is an element within that set that might make it different than all other sets, and that is consciousness; in fact, the set's own consciousness.

I know this is like, "Oh, God here we go with the nebulous consciousness crap." But the fact is consciousness is real and is part of the set of all things--even if it is only manifested in animals on planet earth, and to an extreme in human animals (some).

Having said that, I have no idea how to prove this--yet.
