Quotes by Alex Tsakiris  (?)

“The Dopey Science Creed: 1. I maintain that my life has no purpose and no meaning. The same is true for the entire universe. There is no purpose to anything. 2. I affirm that my morals come from my genes and my conditioning, not from decisions I make. Free will is an illusion. My personal identity is an illusion. 3. There are no “good” deeds, or “good people.” There is no “bad,” “evil,” or “wrong” either. 4. Every report of encounters with spirits, angels, ghosts, and supernatural beings is bunk. The credibility or number of witnesses doesn’t matter—it’s all bunk. 5. I am my physical brain and nothing more. The death of my body is the death of me.”
Alex Tsakiris, WHY SCIENCE IS WRONG...: About Almost Everything

“Quantum mechanics is stunningly successful. Not a single prediction of the theory has ever been wrong… However, quantum mechanics also displays an enigma. It tells us that physical reality is created by observation, and it has “spooky actions” instantaneously influencing events far from each other—without any physical force involved. Seen from a human perspective, quantum mechanics has physics encountering consciousness.8  — Physicist Bruce Rosenblum A”

“There is nothing more important to true growth than realizing that you are not the voice of the mind - you are the one who hears it.”
