I'm saying you're wrong. In fact, *all* the answers you need for why we are here and what death is, etc, can be answered with science.

not who you're responding to but lol what the fuck are you even saying. science cannot acount for consciousness whatsoever and many (both philosophers and scientists) think it never will. science is infinitely limited by its reliance on the phenomenal.

>inb4 well microscopes are gonna get better blah blah blah

in order for the universe to function in the way that science assume it does we have to posit totally crazy shit like dark matter and quantum antigravity otherwise the numbers simply don't add up. i have no doubt that advances in technology will advance empiricism but you must be aware that the empirical method lacks so much of what philosophy can provide

>crazy shit like dark matter

Stopped reading there. If you think dark matter is "crazy shit" (in that respect) you have no idea what you're talking about.

Although I have to say I never said science can account for consciousness, but it at least seems to me that consciousness stems from the brain, and when the brain is injured or affected, consciousness is altered. Thus, I think it's safe to assume that when the brain dies, consciousness dies with it.

And as for how it solved my problems (in a way it didn't since I'm still afraid of death and non-existence), that's more got to do with the knowledge that science gives.

Reminds me of something Carl Sagan wrote again:

'What do we really want from philosophy and religion? Palliatives? Therapy? Comfort? Do we want reassuring fables or an understanding of our actual circumstances? Dismay that the Universe does not conform to our preferences seems childish. You might think that grown-ups would be ashamed to put such disappointments into print. The fashionable way of doing this is not to blame the Universe—which seems truly pointless—but rather to blame the means by which we know the Universe, namely science.

Science has taught us that, because we have a talent for deceiving ourselves, subjectivity may not freely reign.

Its conclusions derive from the interrogation of Nature, and are not in all cases predesigned to satisfy our wants.'

maybe you should have kept reading? dark matter is "crazy shit" in the respect that we have no idea what it is. it's invisible and by all current scientific understanding, completely unexplainable, yet posited in order for everything to function the way we think it functions. there are loads of examples (see: pretty much all of quantum physics) that point to the fundamentally non-empirical (or as Nagel via Teillhard calls it, psychical) nature of the universe. "consciousness comes from the brain" is horribly inadequate and also (this is Edward Wilson's post-Hitchens argument that I am paraphrasing) probably impossible. for centuries we've been trying to find where in the brain "consciousness" is located and nobody can do it. consciousness isn't the only example. what about the nature of energy? or why the atom stays together? I think Sagan's approach to scientific philosophizing is pretty solid but it must be understood that science is a lens and a vocabulary first and foremost and that any attempt to turn it into an ideology or a metaphysics is doomed to fail, and more importantly, oppressive.

Now keep in mind that what I said about consciousness was only what I thought and wasn't necessarily a representation of what science says. I made sure to write "I think" to emphasise this.

>yet posited in order for everything to function the way we think it functions

I think you misunderstand. Dark matter is called dark matter because we have no idea what it is, but it isn't just something that's posited in order to explain things. It's a directly observable phenomena. And it's kind of weird to say that QM and other such parts of physics are "non-empirical", as QED (quantum electro-dynamics) and QM in general is arguably the most successful fields in all of science when it comes to empirical evidence. Richard Feynman even called QED "the jewel of physics" because it is so damn successful.

Now, I wasn't claiming that science was perfect or infallible either but for all intents and purposes it is the best possible explanations we have (and it gives enormous practical value).

>or why the atom stays together?
Come on mane, we figured this out a long time ago. The empirical testing over at CERN is even concerned with splitting these things open to see what they consist of, and what those things consists of, etc.

You can also read the short Sagan thing here (with a nice video) and I think that it's pretty hard to say that this isn't an existentially pleasing piece to read in that you find comfort in it.

But I agree with you on the dangers of scientism, but I don't think I am or was acting as if I adhere to scientism either.

Top kek my friend, science can only answer a how, nor does it provide you with any purpose or morality. I'm all for science, but let's not make more of it than it is. It's a "how it works", not a "what to do with it".

>> No.4250266

>>4250261

What I tried to get across in my post was that science doesn't try to find out any "why" either, becuase it embraces the fact that most likely there is no why to be found. This is the central tenet in absurdism too and also something which is extremely compatible with existentialism. As you say, science gives us a lot of how's as to how we got here (and so on) but it never ever tries to say WHY, because it doesn't assume that there is any need to do that.

+1 for take no prisoners

>>4250266
But then it's not science itself that helped you overcome your crisis but a quietism regarding other matters. I wouldn't see your revelation that you have no need for a why at all as the courtesy of science but more your own discovery that there is a limit to what there is to be found out and coming to terms with that, which is a matter wholly beyond the domain of science.

Still, as far as forming your own life goes this doesn't help at all, so you're basically still in "anything goes and nothing matters" mode. You still need to live and act in the world, and you don't have anything to hold on to.

>> No.4250299

>>4250227
alright I guess I'm coming at this from the wrong angle. all I meant to indicate in bringing up dark matter and these other intangibilities is that science is limited to phenomena in a way that philosophy is not, and because it might be said that the metaphysical project or the existential project or meaning in any meaningful sense is based in consciousness (which some/many have argued is beyond empirical observation) then science cannot attest to the things that you described several posts ago. not that the individual can't find meaning in the scientific method or whatever, but that if we want to know what it means to be human, reductive essentialism is never going to get us there. Science is great at breaking things down but when it tries to put them back together again it always fails (see: pretty much all applied social biological theory).

>> No.4250304

>>4250281

Well, I formed my opinions as a result of extrapolating from the hows of science that most likely there is no why. But my spiritual connection with science has more to do with an Alan Watts and Zen/Buddhism-kind of thing than anything. This knowledge that if you follow the big bang to its ultimate conclution then that means that we are all literally one, etc. It's cheesy stuff but as far as modern science goes it's valid. If I had not discovered this oneness, which is in many ways pantheistic, I would probably continued to have been miserable in life.

>>4250299

I understand bro. I find solace in science (so to speak) but I recognise that there are other ways, and for all I know they may all be wrong. Also I want to stress that just because I am a big fan of euphoric science that does not mean I'm against philosophy in any way, as many modern scientists are.

>> No.4250455

>>4250304
I'm familiar with Watts, but the oneness is as much conceptual as dividedness. It literally has no consequences at all apart from a few fuzzy feelings. It's like calling a bunch of countries Europe and feeling better because you have united them.

>> No.4250474

>>4250455

Hm, no, I disagree. Because you must remember that at some point the universe was just one very small point containing everything in existence. This is still the case, it's just expanding. This has pretty cool philosophical implications and is not at all like your example in my opinion. The oneness of the universe is much more special than the oneness of a continent (which even sounds silly). It's even more interesting when you think about how this universe harbors so many different consciosunesses (is that even a word?) when everything is one.

This is also why science can be viewed as pantheistic in a way in the sense that human beings is the universe's way of understanding itself.

>> No.4250491

The universe is one as opposed to what? Other things? Then there is still division. No other things? Then 'oneness' doesn't mean anything.

I understand where you're coming from, but unity can't really be defended as less of a sophism than multitude when it comes to the totality of existence. The technically correct approach would probably non-dualism in the neither one nor not one sense, but that sounds less cosy. Hence Vedantists wallowing in the Godhead and Buddhists going "muh emptiness" which generally comes with less euphoria.

I assume you're familiar with Vedanta? Vedantists sound like they would be your niggers to the extreme.

I read A Quiet Life by Oe a couple of weeks a go and absolutely loved it. It was really touching, and the meta-textual references were done in a really unique and engaging way.

Also, A Personal Matter and The Setting Sun have quiet a bit in common now that I think about it, both being written from the perspective of a passive young woman and a central aspect being them reflecting on the impulsive author avatar.

a quiet life is one of oe's more tender novels and i loved it. it's in my top three fiction works by him. the silent cry is brutal along the same lines as the setting sun.

a personal matter is a great read. not one of his very best imo (although a lot of people would disagree) but still great. if you liked how sentimental a quiet life was try the nonfiction work, "a healing family" then listen to his son hikari's music.
