Irreducible Mind

Any topics primarily focused on metaphysics can be discussed here, in a generally casual way, where conversations may take unexpected turns.

Irreducible Mind

Post by Simon Adams »

Some of this has already been included in Bernardo's interviews etc, but I thought the series is quite a good summary;

Ideas are certain original forms of things, their archetypes, permanent and incommunicable, which are contained in the Divine intelligence. And though they neither begin to be nor cease, yet upon them are patterned the manifold things of the world that come into being and pass away.

Indeed. I didn’t realise that this is a series of five videos, and Bernardo gets a mention in the “debunking physicalist arguments” one.

There’s also one from seven years ago on “Quantum Physics Debunks Materialism”
