This area is a bit of a free for all on the above subject. No manifesto as such but maybe some interesting ideas may get floated.

 

 

 

 No.1

Does free will exist? Science tells us that any action we make is initiated in a part of our brain which comes before the conscious part of our brain. so in other words consciousness of an action happens after you have already done it.  So what is throwing the switches if you are not conscious of it?

 

No.2

Science has thrown up a lot of aparently counter rational but proven theories in the last 100 years or so. Is the ‘school of reeason’ in denial about what reason is now telling us about the way the universe words which, is often paradoxical and …well…irrational ! ( see the double slit experiment, quantum mechanics , Kurt Godels incompleteness theorem and the recent scietifically proven hardy’s paradox to really bake your noodle).

N0.3

It is a proven scientific fact that the moon (La Lune / lunatic etc) influences human bevavior. There would therefore appear to potentially be some scientific bais to astrology? Astrology was based on the ancients looking at the stars and noticing links between behaviour and their position, were they delusional..or simply apply reason without our modern day pre-disposition to dismiss it as hocus pocus. Should we be worried when the mayan calendar suggests some huge change in the world in 2012? The mayan calender has been shown to be an extrmely accurate predictor of the movement of the stars and the planets..not the work of randon crazies and witch doctors modern doctrine would have us believe.

N04. Does Alchemy exist?  You could argue it is already  here when central banks print money they realise the alchemists dream..but were these guys harmless romantics as is often portrayed?
