And so what? How can you be sure that the Church-Turing thesis can't be violated?

this was my first thought. it also leads to the question: why does God (if he/she/it exists) care? perhaps he can solve this but just doesn't give a crap.

I don't know squat about any of this, but it certainly appears completely underwhelming and lacking in authoritativeness to me. Somebody(ies) came up with some theories, and you're saying God doesn't exist because of them. I'm an atheist , but it's certainly not because of weak arguments like this.

Greg, You were my hero before reading this (along with Barry Greenstein and Chris Ferguson) but now I am really impressed.

STOP PLAYING WORD GAMES. and go read some Vicktinstien(sp?)


If you meant Ludwig Wittgenstein I completely agree. OP give Tractatus a try.

read up a few threads [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img], have not yet read yet 'Tractatus' but it will be on my list of things to read. (Which unfortunately is getting into the hundreds of books now)
