Panentheism and Brute Facts

[Angrboda]

I think you're just kicking the can down the road, and worse, pushing it into god-of-the-gaps territory. Since primal matter has no properties, it can only be known through inference and deduction, making it impossible to demonstrate in any observation. Moreover, since it depends on inference and deduction, this requires placing the entire work load on the back of the reliability of reason, which in your worldview is little more than an assertion. I personally do not put any faith in the premise that rationality is ultimately reliable, effectively infallible, but the long and short of it is that it is a premise that simply won't bear the weight. As noted before, the counter-factual of the premise that reason is reliable yields a paradox which can't be evaluated under classical logic, so that's two of your premises that have been pushed into the realm of the unknowable. Exactly why do you suppose any of this would be convincing? As a Hindu, I postulate that "All is Maya," everything is an illusion. How is one or the other more supportable in any real sense?
