Could we have a link please?
- namero999 6y agoI would suggest to look into the work of Bernardo Kastrup for a rational argumentation of such topic. A comp-sci PhD, worked at CERN, turned idealist, a second PhD in philosophy, a very lucid and proficient writer.
- morelisp 6y agohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idealism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idealism It's literally half of post-Enlightenment western philosophy. Kant, Berkeley, Schopenhauer; artistically Borges; in the sciences Brouwer and Schrödinger; etc.
- throwaway_pdp09 6y agoNow that is a link. Thank you.
- andybak 6y agoThank you for coming to my defence so perfectly. I might have been tempted to veer off into a discussion about panpsychism (because it's so fascinating) but this is a much stronger example.
