An attack on modern science (The limitations of science)
> George: I consider Time to be just as much a part of the universe as Space and matter and energy. dhw believes in an absolute Time within which the universe exists or comes into existence. I maintain that this concept is nonsensical. Postulating earlier universes (or phases of the universe as I would prefer to say) does not get rid of the problem of the origin of Time, it just puts it back further. Putting it back to an infinite regression with no origin is what I would characterise as "occult" thinking.-I agree with you. Note my entry at 18:51 today, concerning theories about time > > George: This is the old "faith in chance" nonsense again! We've argued this before at length, so I'm reluctant to go over it all again.-Obviously, I don't think chance events can produce the evolution we observe.
