The hidden message of the post was "You can't
infer the existence of free will by measuring complexity of behavior". Simple machines can exhibit complex behavior, as it is well known from chaos theory, double pendulums, cellular automata and ... washing machines.
Point was - I can only find freedom as far as I find it within myself.
Hi-Ho Brainiac.
My 'point'
wasn't based on the 'complexity' of the behavior/actions that were 'pointed' to, it was based on the 'spirit' (the
nature of the 'activity') which 'gave rise' to said actions. To appreciate my/said 'point' one would have to set one's 'self' aside ('lose' one's 'self' in Jesus's terms)
by 'i'dentifying
with the actors who were the 'creators' of said actions and
thereby experience what was going on (from) 'within'
them.
Oh, well - not all arrows hit their target. Am
not lamenting, BTW. If they did, the 'game' of Life would be boring!
Your washing machine video right back atchoo, Bro.
