| Untestable Realities
Who get's credit for consciousness?
To answer our question let's start out with these three components, the Sun, the Earth and Consciousness aka Life.
The Sun and the Earth together created Life. The Sun and the Earth together over time is responsible for the viability of Life. The credit for Consciousness therefore goes to the Sun and the Earth. Why is it that the Sun and the Earth doesn't see this?
A visual understanding for this would require for you to stretch your arm out. Use your shoulder as the starting point of the Sun and Earth and the tip of your middle finger the point where we are at right now. Reach over and wipe the fingernail on your middle finger, good you have just wiped out the whole human history.
What this means is that science cannot answser questions about many things because the thing talked about will require being tested and the whole human race will not be around long enough to test the validity of certain questions.
How many know that there are what are called untestable realities in our existence? And in trying to understand those untestable realities you quickly realizes metaphor is the only way to talk about it.
It is said that if you study Nature you will know her secrets. But knowing her secrets doesn't mean you will know her answer to them. Knowing her secrets only means you know the untestable realities.
What is Nature's secret to that spark? We will never know because according to science we will have to do a number of things such as remove the sun to see if a spark would still result. Like wise remove the Earth and other combinations. Experiments we cannot possibly do or repeat over and over again.
We live in the face of untestable realities. |
