Why I believe Consciousness continues after the death of the body - Ostronomos - Feb 4, 2019
I happen to know that the materialistic view of the world is wrong in that it assumes matter to be the fundamental ontology of reality. But that also assumes a separation between the internal and external worlds. This is incorrect. As I have demonstrated before, any two things are different because they have at least one similarity in common, namely that they are both real. So the materialist notion is not fundamental. The mathematical reduction of reality to axioms is evident.
As both I and Langan have proposed; observation alone cannot explain reality, so logic must be used.
