Dupe, ignore

Weird dupe, at that. Same post 4 minutes apart. I only hit save the once.

Whatever.

You're wagging my dog with its tail.

The very concept of "quantum mind" - those very words - implies that the proponents of this woowoo idea want it to be taken seriously as a scientific concept. Why not just call it, oh, I dunno, "gestalt microbrainism" or "feng shite", or some such? Don't wheel out the maths unless you're going to play according to the scientific rules.

You're very excited about dark energy and string theory. That's good.

I particularly like the way you use two very hard concepts with oceans of ugly, difficult mathematics describing them to justify the woowoo-ism of quantum mind.

They might well be total bollocks. The bollockosity quotient of dark energy and string theory is in no way related to the bollockosity quotient of quantum mind.

It might well be that all three concepts are complete toss.

At the moment, however, it's much clearer that one of these three is much, much tossier than the others.
