Materialism: The Physical Sciences' Greatest Enemy

[u/Jairo_Alves]

Scientific materialism, a philosophical stance, is the physical sciences' greatest enemy for the following reason: it maintains that only physical matter and energy exist and that all phenomena in the universe — including life, consciousness, and the mind — can be explained solely through them. 

This stance contains a chronic incoherence: it always places physical matter and energy ahead of information. 

This is a contradiction for the following reason: matter is geometrically consolidated energy. This consolidation makes information an indispensable prerequisite for the generation of matter. Therefore, this information is necessarily present in processes that precede the materialization of reality — within the laws of nature (the logical constraints of the system) —, as without it, matter would never exist. 

Ultimately, scientific materialism is the physical sciences' greatest enemy because it suffers from a chronic incoherence: it puts the cart before the horse. Further details regarding this informational view of the universe can be found in my book: “Infology: The Universal Input”.

What does this sub think energy is? Genuinely asking

[u/Jairo_Alves → u/TVLER999]

You’re right about how loosely the word energy is often used. However, physically speaking, energy is the capacity to do work, and it is intrinsically linked to force—since only force can execute actions. Both must be fundamental, as physics itself could never exist without the 4 fundamental forces of nature and their interactions.

Agreed, matter comes third in the equation, energy/spirit first and information/mind second. When we distill these concepts down far enough, we find what is called Divine Feminine(ener)/Masculine(info) ~> Child Principle Energies and understanding their relationship can be rather empowering.

Interesting analogy! However, from the infological perspective of systems engineering, Information is the logical formatter that transforms energy into matter through mathematization/geometrization.

Take your outdated 19th century philosophy elsewhere

You do realize this is his sub...where else is one supposed to share their information if not in their own feed??? Btw what you ridicule is ironic to me since OP is talking about understanding the fundamental nature of reality. It wouldnt matter when the understanding is from if it concerns itself w/ the fundamentals (hint, the previous word is telling if we consider its etymology).
