Robert Lanza: Rethinking Our Insanely Improbable Universe

[@johnbrowne8744]

Love Robert. He was way ahead of his time a decade ago with Biocentrism. Now, many are catching up. Good.😊

[@spiralsun1]

John Browne yes I am so grateful for this great man. Ever since I wrote The Textbook of the Universe: The Genetic Ascent to God, where we are the reason for the universe, I have been unable to have a career because people think I am crazy. I even said that Newton was able to analyze his own brain, how the theory of motion was written into the brain by evolutionary processes over billions of years... However, with the help of all these people working to make aspects of the theory understandable to the laymen scientists and people, maybe some day we will understand as a people and there will be real morality and real peace on Earth. That is MY dream. Biocentrism is just 1 aspect of it. Donald Hoffman has another piece, etc etc. I am extremely different so having all these centrists speaking aspects of it really helps now. I used that same John Donne quote in my own writings. ❤️👍🏻

[@garyyouree9908]

read my comment above ... hell, hard is it to just past it here? I have to agree this point in the universe is extremely improbable; the first atom of hydrogen was improbable; yet if we consider the retroactive pattern of conception and the passing of previous "genetic" material or code when stars supernova and those bits "conceive" with nebula ... or black holes being the wombs of new universes carrying the code of the previous universe - still this universe = infinity minus one. I am not sold on biocentrism as a theory of everything; while an interesting philosophy it seems cyclical, does not explain net entropy in all apparent observable order, or the more realist construct of time where past, present, and future, exist simultaneously; needing no beginning or end. As my understanding of Biocentrism as of this writing; the universe is a product of our consciousness - the idea that our existence is due to impossibly improbable random events and mutation creating our universe is unrealistic. Only the universe as a product of our consciousness makes sense. I have yet to see any explanation of net entropy in all ordered systems, the scientific construct of time not needing an end or beginning, how two different consciousness relate to the same phenomenon, how preconscious life unable to observe evolved to conscious life, and other properties of this theory which seem cyclical and will follow here: I also see a problem due to this theory discounts the fact we have an erroneous construct of time; while time is considered by science to be past, present, and future, all existing simultaneously - there is not end or beginning and this idea is not a necessity. Biocentrism ignores the fact that science and the study of the universe depends on there being an objective universe to study and we must rely on standards of measurements to communicate our understanding. If the universe is created by an individual’s consciousness then how do we reconcile one consciousness to another’s? Does each consciousness create a separate universe; do unconscious life and nonliving matter and energy only exist within a conscious mind (consisting of matter and energy sparked to life by complex chemical relationships) and if each has a Solipsistic concept of their universe why do they reconcile? Aside from even this and if the argument is made that life is created by consciousness then we have a cyclical philosophy where what makes up the brain and consciousness, aside from live and nonliving matter without consciousness to breathe life into it, we have no life and therefore no consciousness. Are we to expect to reject stellar evolution bringing about the elements for biological evolution, life prior to consciousness right up to the first conscious self-aware thought (which must have been a very slow process since we still retain instincts and many inherent attributes which are a necessity for survival). I would expect, ignoring our predictable premature extinction, expect our consciousness, and that throughout species’ throughout the universe, to have evolved or continue to evolve to more pure forms of consciousness; would not these, besides the problem of being relatable, continue to change the structure, functions, and physical reality of the universe? Wouldn’t these changes, brought about by an evolving consciousness, in the observable matter, energy, and chemicals used in life’s processes and the brains where consciousness arise, … whew, I am getting dizzy; round and round - I guess it proves itself to each and every individual with an elementary shadow of self-aware ability (sometimes passing the mirror test, sometimes not) to a highly advanced being of pure consciousness needing neither mind or body independent of time; observing what - nothing?

[@caspermilquetoast411]

@@garyyouree9908 You're going to need to understand the Double Slit experiment, the concept of Entanglement, in order to figure out the place of consciousness in the Universe, the end result being our consciousness, and how that consciousness actually turns waves of probability into physical matter; the Universe created. Created by our observation of it. The brain is probably not the origin of consciousness.

[@Th1sCantBeReal]

In a materialistic worldview the odds of being conscious in this very moment are minuscule odds (78.6 years out of 13.8 billion / 1 in 175,000,000) considered alongside the double slit experiment showing space/time is incontestably connected to consciousness is good reason to assume consciousness is infinite. It's never discussed from this angle, seems like a huge oversight.

[@0zoneTherapyCures]

"A lack of metaphysical belief quickly leads one to an ethics based in observable cause and effect outcomes. What that looks like is” If I kill John, I get his land and that is good”, etc. In fact, this is the Jewish ethic that is repeated throughout the Tanakh. ie: “Genociding the Canaanites / gentiles is good because we get their land as a result” (justified by any number of false political excuses like the farcical “idolatry” that merely means not prostrating oneself to the Jews). The modern statement of that torah-based genocidal Jewish, land-stealing ethic is “is it good for the Jews”? In fact, this is the core ethic behind the ultimate Messianic goal of the Jewish political group. A society that believes in the metaphysical has an investment in something that continues beyond this life. Therefore, the promise of earthly reward (eg: as the result of murder, theft, etc) is subsumed to the preservation of the soul and the respect of its counterparts in one’s neighbors. That understanding is the basis of modern ethics as Western civilization knows them. Materialist ethics, as represented by the Jewish religion, which logically and quickly become homicidal are not that basis. They are what existed prior to civilization. The belief in the metaphysical is merely the injection into wider society of the belief in higher principles that allow it to largely transcend a primary orientation toward widespread animalistic reward seeking behavior. Without this visualization of a higher ethics and principles that the metaphysical soul and its heaven provides, ethics and behavior would devolve as the result of a widespread perception that what is “good” is measured by what one gains from any deed no matter how barbaric. Atheists and other materialists may transcend this animal ethics and the resultant behavior nonetheless, but make no mistake that they have merely adopted and secularized what is in essence an ethical system born of the historical metaphysical religious view (or metaphor if you wish). This metaphysical religious view is responsible for these socially widespread ethics. Atheism is not responsible for socially widespread higher ethics that transcend animalistic cause and effect ethics. This religious view was born to counter the natural cause and effect ethics of atheists and other materialists. Functional civilization was the result. Within that functional civilization today, we have a variety of marauding mafias that have either informally rejected these higher ethics for materialist ethics (Italians, Mexicans, etc) or have formalized lower materialist ethics (Jews) into a system that is masquerading as a respectable religion. Judaism keeps itself together, in spite of their animalistic ethics, by directing those ethics only onto gentiles whom Judaism openly states that it perceives as literal non-human animals. Within their own group, they deify one another and therefore are able to apply a higher tier of ethical behavior within their group. As a result, the Jews get civilization within their group and open non-ethical de facto war with all non-Jewish groups. As their texts state. Materialists can rationalize away “god” when practicing higher ethics, but most of society does not and will not operate in such nuanced niche territory that, frankly, is the domain only of a small selection of higher IQ individuals who are not anywhere near a majority. This is why the metaphysical is still relevant today and will continue to be relevant for as long as we continue to breed human beings as they presently exist." ~ Anon, reader comment www.unz.com/article/israel-as-one-man/#comment-3262447

I used to believe that time was linear, when I was a kid and each new day brought something different and curious into my scope of awareness. I'm fifty-two years old and have known for a long time now that time isn't linear - it's circular. Life on planet Earth is cyclical in that each day brings nothing different, you will experience the same tedious, banal drudgery tomorrow that you did yesterday. And this makes sense since everything in the universe spins, revolves, and rotates. Atoms and subatomic particles spin. The Earth rotates and revolves around the Sun, which, in turn spins and revolves around the galactic core. The galaxy spins as it makes its lumbering way through intergalactic space. Time in the physical universe is cyclical.

Holy shit, I don't even know where to start. How have I not found this sooner?? I have been talking about the same shit for years now. I thought I was the only one. I do believe in science very much so, but I have always believed in God. Don't know what God is, but I've always believed that something created all of this. Glad to know I'm not the only one thinking about it. The moon is one of my examples. Another is the fact that we conveniently have a built in air filter. It is beyond a miracle that our planet is covered in plants. What we breathe out, those plants need in order to live and grow and many plants are a source of food for us as well, but that's another miracle. Anyhow, the stuff we breathe out, it absolutely needs and what it gives off we absolutely need to live. It's a miracle that the air we breathe is heavy enough to stay near the ground where we are. Also, even though plants make the air we breathe, you can be in the middle of the ocean or a desert and still have far more than enough air no matter how many people are there. If that isn't a miracle I don't know what is. Otherwise we could've never traveled the oceans at least not without bringing our own plants. The fact that everything is made up of atoms and yet everything holds its shape instead of blending together is absolutely essential for our survival. The fact that we have an atmosphere to keep the air on our planet and protect us from so many bad things from the sun but it let's us utilize the sun and is also essential for life. So without the sun AND the atmosphere AND our magnetic field which protects us also, we couldn't be. Without any one of those 3 things we couldn't exist. The fact that having a molten core produces this magnetic field is a miracle too. I do not believe that chance made it so that a planet with a molten core creates this magnetic field. What if a molten core didn't produce that? What I'm saying is we know the core makes that magnetic field, but WHY does it? What makes gravity do the things it does? The fact that gravity keeps us circling our star is also huge. It is also essential. The fact that we have the ability to fly and to leave the planet is huge too. What if wings didn't work and they didn't cut through air and give lift? We could still live, but travel would be much harder. This is just the tip of the iceberg. Also, even if the big bang did happen, I believe something made that happen because an object at rest will remain at rest unless and equal and opposite force acts upon it so how could it have happened without something making it happen? I'm very intrigued by this and am going to look into it more. Some scientific facts are just flat out facts, but some are only fact based on what we currently know. It used to be scientific fact that the earth was flat and the sun revolved around us, but now it is scientific fact that this is not the case. That's just one example, but there are others. I still love science and am very intrigued by it, but I figured the more scientists learned about space, the more likely they would be to realize it's far too grand and there is far too much order in the universe to be by chance. I don't believe in chance or coincidence. Also, if history didn't go exactly like it did, I wouldn't be here right now. Even bad things like WWII, look at all the technology that came from it. Maybe that war was meant to be along with many other good and bad things in history. Sometimes bad is essential to bring about a greater good in the end.

[@evilcowboy]

I actually believe this theory just simply because I analyzed it for nearly 2 years now and with building on the work of Einstein, Stephen Hawking, Chris Langan and a few others along with the fundamental basics of science and math I concluded this is literally the most likely scenario. I wondered about time that led me to wonder about reality and is why I stated the research. I quickly found out no one really knew leaving me to reverse engineer the universe. I could not conclude anything and actually looked at it as my intellect was just not high enough to conclude anything. After exhausting every person who had anything to say in the matter I was left still confused and a little afraid of the idea of simply being gone. So I did the only thing I knew to do and simply ask God with the idea if he was there I would get an answer to my question and if he wasn't I would simply remain unsure. The question I asked was "Help me understand.". I shit you not after reading Stephen Hawking's "A brief history of time." I realized I understood it. Suddenly thins like Cognitive Theoretic model of the Universe, String Theory, Double slit experiment etc etc. I could get a handle on all the things I read. I am sorry if people cannot get behind the existence of God and how cleverly he made the universe, but I think people should realize the image painted of God is not one God gave us, all we have are religions based on the wrong interpretation of who he is and how he correlates with everything. I realized God never spoke anything and if I asked this question then I had to denounce every religion in the world due to the linear view portrayed in those religions. How I know it was God is I never completed beyond the 8th grade and got a GED, and no formal college, I should not even know theories like these even exist but somehow I do and can understand it without any college. That aside even though God created the universe, he stepped back (free will and all) and so a reset is the conclusion I came to and it was a clever system God created. My personal theory is still being developed and I am not yet ready to share it but I am in the process of writing it. I have to figure out ways of writing it down so others can understand it as the English language is limited so figuring out words to describe what I see is very difficult. My model of time is very different and it has a direct causation of why a reset is the most feasible and logical conclusion to reach. I can give a little bit here of the simplest way to understand it. The is a huge difference between knowing something and understanding something, so simply knowing that is true creates a clear separation that the brain is only capable of storing data and using data for action, decision etc etc, consciousnesses is what gives us the understanding and concludes it must be projecting the reality from what is perceived. The only alternative to that would result in a world of instant understanding if consciousness was not separate, once we new something we would understand it. It is clear since we can receive uninteresting information and know it but we sometimes simply are not interested enough to want to understand the information. Also there is the small detail of when you fall asleep you have no perception of time, space, science or anything and if consciousness was not a separate part of us then we should be unable to wake up as all the elements that make up reality is unobserved and perceived so no projection happens. You shouldn't even be able to dream. It should work like being in a coma. What causes you to wake up if an alarm clock is not present? The only logical answer is consciousness and its existence on a dimensional plane we are unable to see due to interference from the best information filter in the world and that is the human brain.

How is meaning stored in state space? Meaning is intimately associated with the eternal now. Meaning in the past could only be fixed by its value in the now and is not static. Memories of the past fluctuate for every creature with any useful meaning being measured against possibilities in the future. Meaning in the future is connected to the now in such a way that the set of possibilities is always constrained by previous associations and as the dimensions increase, the possibilities increase exponentially. The more distinctions associated with a particular concept, the more constrained. The meaning of words is not stable but scale dependent, over vast periods of time, meaning changes along with all of the words in use, as a collection of interrelated elements.

I think it funny in a way, not to be condescending in any way, because i am nowhere near smart enough; yogis and mystic beleivers have figured this out millenia ago. We have now through the scientific method, showed it again. The scientific method definitely works but, if we begin with ourselves, examining our own conscientiousness; alone and as a whole, be further along in this process. All im saying is, instead of looking for the answers from without, is the more profitable path from within. Do we already come programmed with all of the answers as a whole, but for to look in the right place, "us"? I'm going to do my part. Peace, love and one conscientiousness, to all!

@@foureyedflamingo Indeed. I'd wager the dinosaurs themselves were conscious observers the same as mammals; heck, going off Lanza's work (part of which suggests that linear "time" as we think of it doesn't actually exist), it's entirely possible the dinosaurs actually didn't die out and are still living in some other Everett timeline (or at least their sentient reptilian descendents replacing mammalian humans).

[@Music_Creativity_Science]

I think the physical universe is a result of a combination of intent and randomness. The basic framework (laws, physical constants, subatomic matter, expansion process etc) was created with an intent, but it was too hard to create a deterministic process forming life within that process. The concious cosmic energy soup prior to the physical universe instead deliberately created a random process, based on extreme volume and probability (trillion of stars, planets, life somewhere with 99.999% probability). Think about it, I can for example create a certain result by using a random principle with an intent. Let's say that I use a random function in a computer program to create something fantastic. I let the program construct random patterns on the screen with random colors, 10 per second for 10 years. Then I hypothetically look at them, one by one, and find maybe 10 which are amazingly beautiful and symmetric. That is emergence of life among trillions of stars/planets, same basic principle. Summary of the hypothesis, the creating force/thought didn't play dice (Einstein was correct), it created a framework and shot with a shotgun. Your thoughts/comments ?

Only intent, no randomness. It looks random because of the timescales at play, but it’s all intent.

[@joelrivardguitar]

It isn't randomness or chance, those are appeals to emotion. It's probabilities. If time is only in a mind why does it warp around mass? If consciousness is an emergent property of minds or the fundamental cause of reality it doesn't change the universe into suddenly having "meaning". It's equally meaningful either way. The meaning is in our mind. Why do you need God and some fundamental consciousness to give meaning?

Run with me here just a moment, if matter itself does not collapse out of infinite potential until “observed by consciousness” how can say a hiker in the woods be attacked by a mountain lion which was unbeknownst to him until the moment of his death? Been pondering these ideas for a while, having the most difficulty drawing a distinct line on a couple things. 1. Which organisms have the level of consciousness which posses the power to create matter out of potential? Furthermore, if humans are the line, how then can animals affect us physically/emotionally independent of our own actions/observations? 2. If the reason that we all see the same objective reality is that we have “agreed” to view it as such, how does say a brain damaged individual without memory of his past, thus without the level of social influence a “conditioned citizen” may posses, continue to see a ball coming at his face and attempts to involuntarily catch it. If external reality is simply the result of your perspective, there must then be fundamental universal laws of nature programmed inside our very mind to enable us to effectively move and function in the world we know as reality. Any comments would be great, Thanks and Be well.

[@jimkowall]

The answer is your mind does not arise from a biological organism or a brain. Your mind arises from a holographic screen, which is an observation-limiting bounding surface of space, and you as the observer are nothing more than a pure presence of consciousness at the central point of view or singularity in empty space of your own surrounding holographic screen. The biological organism, whether human or animal, is just another holographic image projected from your screen to your point of view in empty space and animated like the frames of a movie as energy flows through your world. This is exactly what the holographic principle of modern physics says about the nature of reality. Consensual reality becomes possible when there is overlapping among bounding surfaces of space like a Venn diagram and information sharing among holographic screens. If you want to learn more, read the book by Amanda Gefter Trespassing on Einstein's Lawn or read my previous extended comments.

[@cbrend22]

I’m disappointed that he buys into Darwinism. It’s a statistical impossibility exactly like the dumb universe. Only one genetic anomaly occurs in every 10 billion sequences, only 1 in a thousand results in a positive outcome, and it takes many, often very many( eyes, for example) to create a “capability” that confers an advantage, not just a difference, but an advantage that actually matters. There are 9 million cones in the eye, multiple other parts, and three completely different systems that must all be developed completely by accident, with millions of parts accidentally created by incredibly rare defects that magically fit together. Each of the millions is subject to the 1/10b defect probability, so need millions of perfectly coordinated accidents, and all three systems and the connective mechanisms to create sight. Utterly impossible, it’s monkey/typewriter all over again. Scientists unbelievably content that eyes were created in a single evolutionary event. LOL. 9 million cones, each with millions of cells that didn’t exist, 3 different systems that didn’t exist, neural pathways that didn’t exist, all occur simultaneously in one of the. most complicated mechanisms known, by accident ( actually millions if perfectly coordinated accidents). Stop it. Even if the mechanisms were created, sight is a subjective experience, how would the brian know how to interpret this input, have any idea what it was, and how would the neural pathways be developed ( again by accident) to interface with other parts if the brain for tactile analysis, self referential comparison, , memory( we build models of the world, where and how did that start, connection and control/filtering/routing by the DFM of input, etc.? Even if you believed that nonsense, These advantages would haven only been embedded in ONE individual, ONE!!! That entity must survive, the “competitive advantage” isn’t a super power, just a small advantage, and you can still get eaten by a tiger, die of disease, etc. Further, the genetic anomaly must be congenital, which most are not. The individual would also likely have to be the alpha male, very unlikely, and this advantage would in no way create the alpha. If not the alpha, then he’s unlikely to procreate, and the survival advantage is inevitably going to be relative to a hunting or defense mechanism, which are primarily male. All of that only entails intra species mods. There’s no evidence of species to species evolution for a reason…it requires myriad( huge amount), concurrent, positive defects at once. Bedsides being a statistical impossibility, the defects would have to occur very early in dev to complete a new entity, before the genetic expression proceeded far enough to create the original species, which means very early. The problem with that, for every one who understands programming( and DNA are digital sequences of instructions like computer code) is that upstream defects, which these would have to be, result in myriad downstream errors. That’s why early development defects in animals of any significance are 99% fatal. This is a non-starter. This has NOTHING to do with religion, and everything to do with politics. Science and politicians decided that the question was binary, and the only alternative to Darwinism was God, and that was unacceptable. Intellectual laziness is unacceptable. Maybe it’s God, or aliens, or the Matrix, or adaptive evolution that relies on epigenetics and the leveraging the 95% of DNA that is a mystery, combined with experience, that ignites conscious and unconscious adaptive evolution, or many other options. It’s certainly NOT Darwinism.
