If there are an infinite number of natural numbers, and an infinite number of fractions in between any two natural numbers, and an infinite number of fractions in between any two of those fractions, and an infinite number of fractions in between any two of those fractions, and an infinite number of fractions in between any two of those fractions, and... then that must mean that there are not only infinite infinities, but an infinite number of those infinites. and an infinite number of those infinities. and an infinite number of those infinities. and an infinite number of those infinities. and...

Yes, there are no objects.

Everything we perceive with the senses is illusory, and the quantum level can't be base-reality given the fact that nothing relative or prone to fluctuation can exist in the absolute sense much less serve as a foundation for itself.

Existence is predicated on consciousness, which is based on feeling. Reality is spirit, maaaaaan... but seriously, it is.

What, you need the greatest debate in early twentieth century mathematics to be collapsed into a shit post?

Ok look into a book called Godels Proof by Nagel and Newman, it's a very short book that you can read in an afternoon and it's got a summation of a proof that states:

>Any sufficiently powerful axiomatic system (like arithmetic) is either incomplete (there are true statements it cannot prove) or inconsistent (it can prove a contradiction).

>This means: no finite set of axioms captures all of mathematical truth.

>Gödel’s incompleteness theorems suggests that mathematics cannot be fully captured by any single, fixed formal system, implying that the development of mathematics involves creative, evolving frameworks constructed through human and social practices rather than just discovery of pre-existing truths

Welcome to 1931 I guess.
>>
>>214148950
incomplete != false
>>
>>214148897
Objective reality is an illusory manifestation of the Absolute. It's real in the sense that we experience it - it's just not absolutely real.

The hindus deal with this in terms of Nirguna and Saguna - that is, the absolute without qualities and the absolute with qualities.
>>
>>214148973
"not absolutely real" doing a lot of legwork there
>>
>>214148962
No one said it was false. Falsity is not part of my argument.

But you hit on something else that's interesting, the concept of "truth" for the sentences within a formal system cannot be defined inside that same system without leading to paradoxes so even your misunderstanding there shows your argument can't work
>>
>>214148973
>Objective reality is an illusory manifestation of the Absolute. It's real in the sense that we experience it - it's just not absolutely real.
If everything we can verify, measure, and live through is not real, then the word “real” collapses. Reality, by definition, is the domain of what persists and behaves independently of our imagination. To call that an “illusion” is like saying “cakes are imaginary, but they taste delicious.” Illusions presuppose reality because to detect an illusion you compare it against what really is. If everything is an illusion, then nothing is.

>>214149033
>Gödel’s incompleteness theorems suggests that mathematics cannot be fully captured by any single, fixed formal system, implying that the development of mathematics involves creative, evolving frameworks constructed through human and social practices rather than just discovery of pre-existing truths
This is a strange extrapolation on the part of whoever wrote this, the fact that the system itself cannot account for every truth contained within it doesn't mean it requires inventive or creative thinking to operate
>>
>>214149006
It's actually pretty simple.

When you look at a rock, is it really a rock that you're looking at or a bunch of waves and particles (perhaps just waves) interacting with each other? And you can take it even deeper than that, given what I said earlier about the quantum level not being base-reality.

Ultimately, everything is the all-pervading Self manifested in a variety of forms... which I realize sounds rather hippy dippy, but it's the truth.
>>
>>214149073
>If everything we can verify, measure, and live through is not real, then the word “real” collapses
Hence why I divided our experience into 2 realities - the Absolute, and the reality that we experience by means of the senses.
>>
>>214149102

The introduction of new axioms or meta theories are required in order to work around the boundaries inherent in the system. Think of it a bit like the liar paradox but about an individual, "Chud cannot prove this statement is true"

>>214149111
>When you look at a rock, is it really a rock that you're looking at or a bunch of waves and particles (perhaps just waves) interacting with each other?
It's both at the same time. Our definition of the object can change but the underlying truth, the object itself, exists regardless of our perception of it

Your notion of the Absolute is parasitic on empirical reality. All your thoughts, language, and distinctions; including the very statement you just made are experienced phenomena. If sensory-based reality is ‘less real,’ then your awareness of the Absolute would also be undermined, because that awareness is mediated through experience.”
Or in a simpler way to put it... if our experienced reality can’t be trusted, then their very concept of the Absolute collapses too.

>>214149334
>Your notion of the Absolute is parasitic on empirical reality
Because the Absolute doesn't exist in a vacuum - nothing does. Everything exists in relation to everything else (or at least the illusion of there being many things), therefore it has to be realized through what it's not (which is clearly spacetime).

>if our experienced reality can’t be trusted, then their very concept of the Absolute collapses too
In the end, all information is not to be trusted. It's merely a means to an end - an ineffable, spiritual end.

NTA but everything we say consists of words and concepts which are social constructs. The meaning of a word lies in its use in a given language game which changes according to context, players etc. there is an underlying reality but what we say about it is not the same as that reality

I think this is my problem with quantum mechanics, there's no reason when you get that abstracted from daily life that reality should fit the concepts we use for daily life.

I think I see what you mean. Like how for a time something will be accepted as the truth until something comes along and contradicts it. A famous example being that cigarettes were considered healthy. If that's what you mean I can agree with that, but there are objective truths in the world otherwise the concept would be theoretical.
>>
>>214147075
lol
>>
>>214149777
>like how for a time something will be accepted as the truth until something comes along and contradicts it
Exactly

To expand on that, just take the logical investigation of "if (a) is true, then (b)." If you find that (b) does or doesn't follow, does it mean you understand either (a) or (b)? Of course not. It's just a process of investigation - it's a working towards actual understanding. And you can apply this to any system or process no matter how seemingly complex it may be, like, say, the biological process that forms a body. If you completely process the chemistry and biology, does it mean you understand what a human truly is? I don't think so. It just means you learned about the body within a given framework of analysis.

I think of spacetime as the "Being optimization theory." It's driven by the Supreme Being in order for it to realize and actualize itself.

>>
>>214150633
>You've already insinuated the claim that nothing is knowable though
The Absolute can't be proven by means of empirical evidence because it's not exactly equal to percepts. I believe it must be a formless, ineffable experience for reasons I stated earlier.

>>214146340
natural and rational numbers have the same cardinailty, they are the same level of "infinit". You are right thought, that there are infinite of those levels. The next step would be the real numbers, which are one step ahead of the naturals/rationals.

if there are infinite universes, does that mean there's one where the only difference to ours is that I didn't made this post?
>>
>>214151727
I've thought about this before, and it hurts my brain.

I don't think there can be infinite universes because a) there's no good reason to think an infinite regress is possible, and b) there has to be limits in order for anything to exist.

However, I do think the universe must function as a closed system that's eternally fluctuating (for reasons I won't get into right now) - and if this is true, I think it must mean every possible iteration (i.e. every possible sequence of events) must play out. So, while it would be finite due to the necessary limitations of spacetime, it might as well be infinite due to our extremely limited capacity to fathom the possibilities.

To the extend we're talking about infinities and foundations, that field is basically a jewish field.

So how would you figure out what set of letters would make up the sum of the elusive 216 digit number and in what order to place those letters? There's simply no way, and even an elementary school kid could see this giant plot hole.
