My personal TOE

Runewolf1973

Materialism/Animism
Here ill explain it because it obvious.

The conscious mind is the ability to think. It is an instinct that lest us hunt, and avoid being hunted. An animal has to be aware of its surrounding or it will simply become food.

Anything else is pie in the sky imaginative based modern mythology based on ancient mythology.


Yes, but from a more fundamental perspective, consciousness is our ability to interact with our environment in a complex manner. It is interaction. Thinking is a form of interaction, as well as touch, taste, hearing, smelling, seeing, experiencing, etc, etc...

The conscious mind does not d any of those. It is the CPU in our computer, the computer interacts not the conscious mind.


NONE OF WHICH has anything to do with the universe

The brain plays an active (interactive) role in all of those.

Everything has something to do with the universe because the universe is everything.

No it factually is not

Our bodies do the interacting, the brain is only the thought process.




our conscious mind factually cannot and does not interact, without a body.


The brain is a highly evolved, highly interactive organ.

We're not discussing pseudoscience here, so consciousness without a brain or body is not really relevant. Interaction occurs without a brain. The brain allows for very complex interactions to occur such as our senses.

How is that any different than me saying interaction occurs without a brain?

Because I'm saying in context that consciousness factually has no interaction with nature outside the brain.

Not one aspect of anything you have stated has anything remotely to do with anyone's possible TOE

Please explain how consciousness does not involve interaction with forces outside of the brain.

Interaction has to do with my TOE. So what is my theory? Simple. Interaction is everything. The universe as a whole is an infinite interactive field.

explain how it does

no pseudoscience



pseudoscience based on your own bias and imagination, because there is no evidence anywhere of which holds any amount of credibility.


Our brains interact with and respond to stimuli recieved from various external sources...light, vibration, chemical signatures, etc...

That the universe is infinite and interactive is most certainly not pseudoscience. The evidence for this is everywhere you look. Interaction is everything. Everything is interactive.

"All matter originates and exists only by virtue of a force...." Max Planck.

You did not write one sentence that really means anything. You know it will corner you into the pseudoscience your trying to posit.

What pseudoscience? Do you even know the meaning of the word? I'm beginning to wonder. It is a proven and demonstrable fact that the universe and everything in it is interactive. Some call it the Unified Field.

Btw... My theory of everything is not a mathematical theory of everything, it is more of a philosophical theory. There are some philosophers who say that mathematics alone will never be able to give us a true TOE because mathematics can not explain consciousness. My theory of interaction does explain consciousness. It explains consciousness as a complex form of interaction. It also explains those things we call life and death all very simplisticly...it is all interaction...all beginning with the Fundamental Interactions found in nature. Science may one day discover a different force more fundamental or unified than the known forces, but guess what? It will still be another form of interaction! Interaction IS everything.

You are trying to tie consciousness into an interactive field based on imagination.


I admitted from the git go, my hypothesis was my imagination, but it does follow academic lines somewhat at its foundational levels.

Consciousness factually did not exist when the universe was created. It has no place in any TOE.

Only animals possess a conscious mind that we know evolved with life. Life factually has nothing to do with any TOE.

You really are looking like POE at this point.

No it factually is not

Our bodies do the interacting, the brain is only the thought process.

Our brains receive signals from the environment through our five senses. That's interaction. The brain is also self-interacting because the neurons interact with each other.

Our brains control every aspect of our body, so to say that our bodies interact but our brains don't is rather nonsensical.

Your statement would be fine. But your taking me out of context.

Our brains do not interact with nature outside our bodies the way he is claiming as part of universal fabric.

Certainly not in any way that would make consciousness some fundamental reality as some mystics try to claim. That would be pseudoscience. Consciousness does need to be explained if we are to have a genuinely complete TOE. The combined effect of interactions both in the brain and with the outside environment does explain consciousness. It is interaction from a very physicalist, materialistic point of view.
