Summary

This theory is a more developed version of some earlier very rough ideas I posted under the title 'The Sentient Centered Theory Of Metaphysics' (SCTOM).

This theory makes the assumption that Cognitive Science is the best way to approach the construction of a TOE and that the underlying fabric of reality itself is in some sense 'Cognition'. The idea is that the universe itself is in some sense, a kind of mind. The Mathematico-Cognition Reality Theory (MCRT) is a theory of Many-Aspect Monism, where one underlying substance manifests itself as multiple properties. The theory is also a theory of property dualism, since it's proposed that there are properties which cannot be completely reduced to physical processes. The underlying substance is called 'Mathematico-Cognition', a hybrid of Physical, Volitional and Mathematical properties. 7 different fundamental informational properties are proposed, which together form 3 different kinds of causality - Physical, Volitional and Mathematical. It is suggested that these 3 different kinds of causality can be literally interpreted as 3 different time dimensions.

Admin Note: This theory has been moved to the Articles section of ToeQuest. You can view it in full here. Longer posts should be posted as Articles with a summary post in these forums that links to it. Thanks.
