How appropiate your photograph. For this thread.

Sounds like a plan. :ok: — Manuel

Yes! It's all planned in true wickedness. I'll let alloya know... :smile:

You are right about one thing though. Science is forced upkn people. From childhood on colorful young children are turned in its obedient slaves. These young ones gain power and make others play the game of loan slaves or they ruin the world with their inventions.

Thank you! I like your style! Nice writing up here! Especially about that science stuff. I like to write myself. And a lot of other stuff as well. You'll get to know it. By my words only.

Ergo, another player should feel the same? — schopenhauer1

Where did I say that? Ergo, you assign me things I don't want to.

I have before discussed what might be deemed as "intrinsic goods". — schopenhauer1

Excuse me for sayin but what are "intrinsic goods"? Philo-babble, in my eyes...

Try writing one post focusing on the good things in life, unironically. It would be interesting to see. Cause I get the impression you would not be able to. Prove me wrong — Manuel

You're good! :blush:

Looking forward to your eventual reply, once your done cogitating for a while. :) — Manuel

You are assuming by default that suffering is the end-point, be all of life. So If I tell you, where am I harming anybody by listening to a song or reading a novel? You can always say, they suffered tremendously to create such works, as they were based on frustration, sweat, disappointment, etc. — Manuel

:ok:

Why should we procreate people who will have to go through the obstacle course? — schopenhauer1

Why not. I'm glad I was procreated! I love life though I was depressed for a long time. People have made a mess of the world!

Why should others go through obstacles because you think it's good (at the time you made the decision for that person at least). It's one thing to bring obstacles upon yourself, quite another to decide that you want to birth more people to experience obstacles. — schopenhauer1

I didnt say I turn them on other people. If they're not interested...let them be.

Space is what allows or permits these processes happening. So would the fields would be space itself or would they be what is involved in the paths particles take? — Manuel

Good thought! I answered it in my last sentence. These paths dont constitute space though its tempting to think. Would we finally know what spac actually is. MAYBE... they constitute spacetime... Must think about that! Thanks! :grin:

What's got father to do with it? Without obstacles you float around like a lost spaceship. You need to get a grip. I think you see obstacles in a different light as I do. I like competition, fights, polemics.

And yet we keep adding more contestants. — schopenhauer1

Why shouldn't we? Life is beautiful. And contestants die. We need obstacles.

The whole life is a kind of obstacle course, forced on us from the moment of conception and even way back to the big bang. A funny game God created.

In some of the pop-physics books I've read, people like Sean Carroll, Carlo Rovelli, Art Hobson and the like, they tend to say that a field is kind of like a space — Manuel

More or less. Take just one particle (spin 1/2) in empty space. This particle, if prepared firstly by an interaction, also called a measurement, is essential for spinor fields (quarks and leptons and maybe even more deep) to localise. This particle moves on ALL possible trajectories at once. If it had not interacted all probability amplitudes for these paths (and these are litterally ALL paths) are equal. All these particle paths and interactions later constitute space. Space is that what allows all these particle trajectories. But these paths don't constitute space.
