And I think I can summarize my philosophies of cause and effect from this post. http://www.toequest.com/forum/logic-...in-events.html .I posted this a long time back so this is just for reading for whoever who has not understood (or wishes to understand) in what perspective I am posting my arguements. But if you wish to comment on that thread please do it in that thread itself so that everything will not get mixed up.

And I'm also sorry for such a late reply and for posting this in the middle of an ongoing discussion.

---No biggie on the lateness. I take time to answer other’s posts, so for me to be impatient after expecting patience from others would be hypocritical of me.
---If I wanted an instant answer to anything, I would use chat rooms, instead of an electric bulletin board.

And I just don't understand your perception of ---'Atom has a brain to know why and how it is working'.

---An atom doesn’t have a brain or at least not a normally recognizable one. At the most basic level a human mind is only the interaction of massenergy. An atom only exists as an interaction of massenergy, that hypothetically being quarks, strings et al.
---As you posted, yeah things follow a few basic laws of physics, but how does anything ‘know’ how to follow those laws unless there is a ‘memory’ or an ‘instinct’ of how to follow. Cause and effect; something can’t do something unless it has a ‘learned’ ability, capability or nature of how to react to something else. That ability/capability/nature can be considered or described as a “memory”, correct? Considering that a computer has a memory, to say that a ‘solid’ atom can’t have a memory due to the interaction of its separate parts through energy, would or wouldn’t be a false statement?

Then those ideas will be the effects caused by the individuals death.

---The idea/concept was put together, in someone’s head. If the parts of those ideas fit together, then they have always fit together in that manner and will continue to fit together, within reality, after the person dies. While that person was alive, if they created the thing in actuality, they had to take the parts from other areas of reality/places and taking those parts caused gaps/a change in what was. Anyone being able to figure out what was missing after the removal, would presumably be able to take those things and figure out the combinations that those things would be able to fit together in. That is, if they honestly knew/accepted the full capabilities of each of those pieces.
---Since atoms are not (and yet completely are), frozen in place and time their existence must retain a ‘memory’ of where they were, in the possibility of that same set of circumstances affecting that same atom and thereby causing the atom to return to that changed form.
---When a ‘new’ thing occurs to that atom the period of time for the state of flux/unknown is infinitesimally small and then, the atom uses parts of its past, takes them and mixes them together until an ‘idea/concept arises that aborts the unknown/absolute vacuum. To put it another way; nature abhors a vacuum/flux and when one occurs, something HAS to rush in to fill it.
