Melchior,
Allow me to quote myself from the thread, "Quantum Superposition"...
"...like the particle/wave duality of a quantum entity being two complementary aspects of the same thing, the material/spiritual duality of reality itself is merely two complementary aspects of the same thing also. The point being, don't focus too heavily on either side lest you encounter a form of Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle at the highest level itself."
Melchior, you are a brilliant and eloquent expositor of your ideas on reality, and I enjoy reading your posts.
However, in my opinion you lean way too far over into the materialistic side of the
material/spiritual equation, almost to the exclusion of the spiritual (and obviously, I lean toward the spiritual, but with a
healthy respect for both sides).
And until you begin to
"sense" the presence of life in a grain of sand, the magma of the earth's core, the moon, a useless meteorite drifting through space, on up to the blazing furnaces of the suns in full blown galaxy clusters, you will never understand what I, spacedout, and others in this forum are talking about.
So please rephrase your line: "...living, perhaps, but not by our standards..." to read: "not by
your standards."
(And here's a winky dot

just to make it look like I know what I'm talking about.
