Hi Ronald,

    Thank you for recommending this paper. While I recognize many of the
ideas in it, it bothers me that there is no explicit attempt to explain the
"beliefs" (other that vague references to other papers/books). As I
understand the paper, Mikovi´c is propossing a type of psycho-physical
parallelism of a vast kind.
    Instead of a single branging tree representing the MWI splitting and
attempting to map this into the Platonic Realm of Mathematics, we seem to be
told of a pair of trees that somehow match at every occasion of perseption
but only one of the trees is mapped into Platonia. The Psy tree does not
have a substructure supporting it. Is this more like a Tree and its Shadow?
The former has roots that tie it to a substrate that connects to Platonia,
but the Shadow tree is ephemeral and transient. Of course this implies that
Free Will is a complete delusion!
    I do appresiate Mikovi´c's attempt and the work in writting his paper. I
just wish that he would explain himself more.

Onward!

Stephen

Hi,

this paper (Mikovic) is unfortunately not very good. I quote:

"There are strong arguments that the human mind is not computable, based
on Goedel’s theorems in logic, see [3]."

3 refers to Penrose's "Emperor's new mind".

I don't think that I have to comment this fallacy on this list. (Bruno
has written enough on this already) ;-)

Also, his main assumption of time as fundamental introduces more
problems than it solves.

Cheers,
Günther
