Because somewhere along your copypasta i read that the OP was talking about how a person observing something influences reality. This is not the case, it may appear like this but the fact is the equipment we use to observe thermodynamically interacts with whatever we are observing. This is what causes the wave function to collapse. -

Where? Do you mean this part?Emergence theory defines this observer not as a human being or animal who is seeing or being aware of something––but as a "unit of consciousness," or viewing vector that exists at all scales of reality, starting at the Planck scale (the smallest scale that exists in physics.) In Emergence theory's still-evolving framework, emergent universal consciousness self-references itself into existence via a massively efficient geometric, binary code/language of measurements. For the 3D quasicrystalline point space that we theorize is the substructure of reality to behave as this language or code, an observer is required at every point of the quasicrystal in order to make the freewill choices regarding the states of the tetrahedral building blocks of reality in every given moment. This means that at the center of every single tetrahedron/pixel in the quasicrystal there is a unit of consciousness that observes its immediate surrounding and makes binary choices regarding changes in the states of reality at every single moment in time. Each such unit of consciousness is a component of a massive, intricate neural network – a universal scale, collective consciousness that observes the universe at all scales and all times, actualizing reality – including itself - by observing it.

2017-07-24 at 9:27 PM UTCHow does it seem to suggest that? Where does it suggest "when the observers stop observing, the universe would stop existing"?

Emergence theory views spacetime in a way that builds on Einstein’s spacetime model, in which the future and past exist simultaneously in one geometric object. We view this object as a system in which all frames of spacetime interact with all other frames all the time. In other words, there is a constant, dynamic, causality loop relationship between all moments in time, in which the past influences the future and the future influences the past.
If the past and the future exist simultaneously and influence each other, how does this suggest anything could suddenly stop existing? That doesn't even make sense. -

Thanks for nothing.Having made a large amount of money from this business, Irwin has started promoting pseudoscience. He has registered an organization with the deceptively prestigious title and domain name of "Quantum Gravity Research"[10] and has begun releasing videos and articles about cold fusion, the golden ratio, crystals, and consciousness. To make it more prestigious, he has hired several actual physics graduates — but in their uploaded lectures he talks over them.[11][12]
He was also a co-founder of Ray Kurzweil's Singularity "University" in 2007.[13]
While it existed, he attempted to keep his Wikipedia article in good order.[14]
He also made the 30 minute youtube documentary "What is reality?". It covers a number of topics and misunderstands almost all of them, and at the end asks the audience for money.[15]

2017-07-24 at 9:47 PM UTCit's really awful how quantum physics is constantly bastardized by people who don't even know jack shit about the basic principles of classical mechanics, let alone a decent understanding of linear algebra and other math fields that are required to have a solid understanding of what the fuck you're talking about when you mention quantum physics. the usage of quantum mysticism mumbo-jumbo to support fringe theories is one of the best ways to identify retarded niggers online. and btw even if I'm quite a solipsist and I find thought-experiments such as putnam's brain in a vat to be extremely fascinating, but they cannot be treated as scientific theories because they don't satisfy popper's criterion of falsifiabilityThe following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire!

That passive aggressive neurotic fuck, follows me around he forums, thanks the off-topic replies in my thread and then makes his own shit post. WTF RisiR? Why don't you just follow me around posting "I don't like you, I don't like you, tra-la-la-la-la."
Hahahaha...
Hook, line and sinker. RIP thread. You ruined it, Obbe. As usual. Narc's post wasn't even off-topic but you just had to be completely overreacting bitch. You are triggered, bro.
Good idea, though. -
2017-07-24 at 10:08 PM UTCSeriously RisiR, just say what you wanna say. Don't beat around the bush.

Originally posted by Sophie Yes i think so. Also that part seems to suggest the Universe is solipsistic in the sense that when all observers stop observing the Universe stops existing. That's pretty fucking stupid though, and again, unfalsifiable.
the observers would have to have been there from the very beginning also.

2017-07-24 at 10:12 PM UTCYeah NARC. It does make me mad. Although, I'm pretty sure you Google every large post I post just to see if you can find it out there on the web. That kinda makes me laugh.
