In your opinion what causes christians to believe in Jesus
RE: In your opinion what causes christians to believe in Jesus
(May 17, 2025 at 10:26 pm)Paleophyte Wrote: The question that needs to be asked is if information follows the same laws as the physical world and if there are any additional rules that might change the behaviours. A computer is pretty inert until it's fed just the right pattern of information. If we view the mind similarly, then it's reaction to external information might not be expected to conform to physical laws.

I like that you bring up information, because I do lean heavily in the direction of informational realism. I view all reality as fundamentally informational, so that things like matter arise from informational structures and informational states.

So if I were to give a rough description of how I interpret reality, I would argue it goes something like this:

1. Information is the foundation.
2. Integrated information creates consciousness.
3. Consciousness abstracts or instantiates the physical world from information.
