Despite what physicists might say, the actual physics’ view is that the universe is like a perfect machine that is fuelled by number change: i.e. the equations of physics would indicate that an initial number change is the fuel that perfectly drives the universe forever afterwards. In this view, quantum mechanics might be seen, by some, as an anomaly that will be brought into line just as soon as the right equations are found.
The physics’ view is that initial number change is the perfect fuel that runs the universe ever after, and no number-change (i.e. fuel) top-ups are ever required. But what if top-ups are required in the form of quantum jumps of number? It seems more likely that the number jumps of quantum mechanics are the essential sources of change in the universe [1].
But what is causing quantum number jumps? Seemingly the only candidate is matter itself. So instead of the view of physicists and philosophers, including physicists Anthony Aguirre [2], Sean Carroll and Carlo Rovelli [3], of a numb, dumb matter that is ruled by laws, and where genuine free will [4] is an impossible anomaly, we come to the view that matter itself has the free will to “jump the numbers”, i.e. matter itself is driving change in the universe.

1. Note that time, energy, mass, and position etc, are in effect merely categories that can be represented by numbers; time, energy, mass, and position can’t themselves cause number change: a lot of people get confused by this issue.

My view is that physicists are making this idea of time way harder than it needs to be. Specifically, my comments are:
1. I may not be understanding this correctly, but do physicists think that the equations of physics work fine when time runs backward and forward because they can put negative numbers in their equations and still get some result? To me, it seems like just because a person...

I have a problem with the notion of time in the multiverse scenario that Sean Carroll prefers as a valid interpretation of quantum mechanics.
To illustrate the problem, let's do a gedankenexperiment:
Suppose that tomorrow i will go to the quantum laboratory and make a superposition experiment with two distinct possible outcomes. No matter what measurement outcome i will see tomorrow, my "clone" will the the complementary outcome.
My question now is: does this clone already exist today? If yes, in what sense does it exist already today?
If not, i must take the usual narrative of a branching universe seriously (for the sake of the argument) and infere that a whole universe is generated at the moment the wave function collapses.
The puzzle now is twofould, namely who was the original person in the lab and who is the clone. If i am the clone then i merely have a false memory about my past - i did not live that past but the original did live it. The clone therefore lives in a virtual reality equal to a boltzmann brain that believes its full blown memory about the past indicates that it lived it in the past.
If an infinitude of "original me's" has lived my life from birth to tomorrow (when i go into the lab and perform my experiment) and after the experiment one of those "original me's" is differentiated from me (by seeing the complementary measurement result), I have to ask in what sense it was *not" me before the measurement outcome took place. Are there an infinitude of identical universes stacked upon each other at every point in time? And last but not least - does the formalism of quantum mechanics indicate in any way that such an infinitude of identical "copies" is inherent in the superposition that will take place tomorrow?
I would be thankful for some enlightening answers.

Dear Reality Fans,
The real VISIBLE Universe never “started out.” Physicists have only ever proven that all real matter has a real VISIBLE surface. They have never proven that any invisible empty space has ever existed. Physicists have only ever ASSUMED that a void once existed and that there was a finite “early universe”. Physicists have only ever ASSUMED that there were three finite dimensions. Obviously, NATURE must have provided only one VISIBLE reality. The real Earth had a real VISIBLE surface for millions of real years BEFORE Sean Carroll and Carlo Rovelli ever appeared on that real VISIBLE surface and began publishing their unnatural guesswork concerning finite laws of invisible thermo-dynamics. There has only ever been and there will only ever be one unified VISIBLE infinite surface ETERLALLY occurring in one infinite dimension that am always mostly illuminated by finite non-surface light.

Dear Dr. Kuhn,
Today’s Closer To Truth Facebook page contained this peculiar piece of misinformation:
“Peter van Inwagen is the John Cardinal O’Hara Professor of Philosophy, Emeritus. While he works in a wide variety of areas of philosophy, much of his work has been in metaphysics, the philosophy of action, and the philosophy of religion. Watch his interview below on the Bible addressing philosophical questions.”
I have posted this sensible comment at the website and on the FQXI.org Community Board and on my own Facebook page:
In the year 1611, an invisible white male god somehow managed to meander into the room where English scholars were seeking divine guidance in order to write the best true version of the Bible for King James. One of the scholars was bothered by the fact that although he had suspected that the Israelites who were wandering about in the wasteland had no food and had to rely on manna pouring down from above, they had somehow found enough gold dust or gold nuggets to smelt and manufacture the golden calf idol. This bothered him because when Moses came down from the mountain toting the Ten Commandments slates, a bunch of Israelites were breaking the First Commandment for the very first time by dancing round the brand new minted golden calf yelling “Holly Cow” before Moses could let them know they were all going to Hell.

These interviews of Carroll and Rovelli are both quite interesting since they show two very smart people with many related but very different narratives about the nature of reality. Narratives with measurement are what guide science and without measurements, there really is no role for science. However, narratives without measurement are what guide philosophy and there are philosophy is a perpetual discourse among many very smart people about the nature of physical reality.
“Every philosopher believes they are correct in disagreeing with every other philosopher and so only one philosopher could ever actually be correct.” Paul Skokowski.
Neither Carroll nor Rovelli acknowledge the unknowable precursors that result from quantum phase correlation and superposition, but both accept the notion that the universe changes and that outcomes all have precursors, i.e., cause and effect. However, they do not discuss the two very different kinds of changes that make up things that happen: First there is the very slow change of the universe due to gravity; Second, there are the very fast changes of atoms due to charge.
Black holes are endpoints of time and space, but black holes are still subject to the slow changes of universe matter and action. In mattertime, the universe pulse destiny is a single black hole and that destiny births the next antiverse/universe pulse. An antiverse expansion is the first half pulse that grows with antimatter precursors then a universe matter pulse decay is the
second half pulse.

But the philosophers belief in the correctness of their disagreement could be wrong. E.g. Sometimes people are talking about the same things in different words. And so there need not be just one correct philosopher. I think the statement by Paul Skokowski is just a put down regarding philosophy; as if the explanation of things is unimportant. Is agreement without understanding, or the attempt to understand, better? I think not.

Dear Georgina,
Please remember that: Cogito, ergo sum is (sic) a Latin philosophical
proposition by René Descartes usually translated into English as "I think,
therefore I am". The phrase originally appeared in French as je pense, donc je suis in his Discourse on the Method, so as to reach a wider audience than Latin would have allowed. Wikipedia
René would have been closer to telling the truth had he averred: Je suppose que,
comme tout le monde sur la planète “I guess, just like everybody else on the
planet does.” All philosophers and theoretical physicists would come closer to telling
the truth if they would only preface all of their remarks with the term:
“I guess.” Professor Markus Mueller of the Vienna Institute for Quantum Optics
and Quantum Information has confirmed to me by email that all philosophers and theoretical physicists have always guessed about the real structure of the Universe. But he insists that he only makes “good” guesses, not arbitrary ones.

The 2019 FQXi conference [1] has pinned this article [2] to the top of its twitter page. The speakers and attendees have spent a lot of time trying to decide what life, agency and free will are, and whether they are compatible with current physics, or whether new physics is required.
But the topology of life, agency and free will is completely different to the topology of determinism:
…..Determinism means that laws of nature determine all outcomes for matter.
…..Agency/ free will means that matter itself determines some of its own outcomes. This is new physics only in the sense that it is a different view of matter.
The other issue is that the nature of life, agency and free will is only representable as (but not determined by) algorithms; the nature of life, agency and free will is not representable as equations and numbers alone. Yet there is no way that equations and numbers can transmogrify into algorithms. This is new physics only in the sense that the behaviour of matter needs to be represented by algorithms.

“How can God's perfect knowledge not eliminate free will? Since God-to-be-God can never be wrong and knows everything, including propositions about future events, how can those propositions about future events, which God knows now, not come to pass in the actual future? Hence, if we cannot do otherwise than what God knew prior, how can we have free will?

I have posted this sensible comment at the website and on the FQXi.org Community Board and on my own Facebook page:
The only proven fact the physicists have ever been able to prove am that the real Earth had a real VISIBLE surface for MILLIONS of years BEFORE Matthews Grant ever appeared on that real VISIBLE surface and began publishing his unnatural guesswork concerning an invisible white male god. Obviously, NATURE permanently provided only one VISIBLE reality. There has only ever been, and there will only ever be one unified infinite VISIBLE surface ETERNALLY occurring in one infinite dimension that am always mostly illuminated by finite non-surface light. There has never been an invisible white male god. The Bible am a book of white male fiction. The Periodic Table am a white male fictional listing.

Why do white men try to prove that an invisible white male god exists? The only true fact credentialed physicists have ever proven am that the real Earth had a real visible surface for millions of years before Robert J. Spitzer, SJ, ever appeared on that real visible surface and began publishing his unnatural finite classical guesswork concerning invisible white male deity. Nature must have provided only one visible reality, and made that reality visible so that all creatures could deal with it for all of their lives. There has only ever been, and there will only ever be one unified infinite visible surface eternally occurring in one infinite dimension that am always mostly illuminated by finite non-surface light.

“What are the classical arguments used to prove the existence of God? For the Cosmological Argument we argue First Cause; from the Ontological Argument we argue Necessary Being; from Teleology we argue Design and Purpose. All are refuted and in turn defended in what seems to be a philosophical arms race. In the end, no one believes in God because of arguments, but they do help to develop our thinking about God.

Although white males have argued for centuries over the possible existence of an invisible white male god, NATURE made sure that only one real VISIBLE reality would ever exist. White male physicists have only ever proven that the real Earth had a real VISIBLE surface for millions of years BEFORE Greg Ganssle ever appeared on that real VISIBLE surface and began publishing his unnatural guesswork about an invisible white male deity.
There has only ever been, and there will only ever be one unified infinite VISIBLE surface ETERNALLY occurring in one infinite dimension that am always mostly illuminated by finite non-surface light. Even after all human white males go toes up due to the effects of global warming, the hot planet Earth will still retain its VISIBLE surface.

Every sensible person ought to know that NATURE must have produced the only singular VISIBLE universe possible. The only true fact about the structure of the universe that Stephen Hawking ever provided us with was that the real planet Earth had a real VISIBLE surface for millions of years BEFORE Stephen Hawking ever appeared on that real VISIBLE surface and began publishing his unnatural guesswork concerning invisible finite black holes. Just as you would think that a person who had only seen the last ten minutes of William Shakespeare’s play Hamlet, then started describing what the whole play was about was a fool, it follows that Hawking and all of the philosophers and physicists were completely wrong about the single VISIBLE physical propensity of the Universe.
