| Re: What Is A ToeQuest? Some Fragments...
I would like to return to the question which initiated this thread...namely, "What is a ToeQuest?" In my view, a true ToeQuest is not simply the search for a way to unify the various fragments of physical theory...not a GUT...but, rather, a wide open theory of EVERYTHING...not just a theory of part of everything....not just, as I stated earlier, a Physics of Everything...a POE.
It is obvious from all the back and forth regarding the primacy of consciousness vs. the primacy of matter on this site, and the nature of what a TRUE TOE should and should not include, that the nature and scope of the quest itself is an issue. I think there's room in this here town for both the consciousness gang and the matter gang...the TOEs and the POEs (from my perspective)...
...and, who knows...maybe if we interact with each other with respect rather than derision, something new will emerge. After all...we are all trying to fathom the same incredible mystery.
Best to all,
