Scientist says he found definitive proof that God exists.

http://ageac.org/en/multimedia/scientist-says-he-found-definitive-proof-that-god-exists-2/

The theoretical physicist Michio Kaku claims to have developed a theory that might point to the existence of God. The information has created a great stir in the scientific community because Kaku is considered one of the most important scientists of our times, one of the creators and developers of the revolutionary String Theory which is highly respected throughout the world.

To to come to his conclusions, the physicist made ​​use of what he calls “primitive semi – radius tachyons “.

Tachyons are theoretical particles capable to “unstick ” the Universe matter or vacuum space between matter particles, leaving everything free from the influences of the surrounding universe.

After conducting the tests, Kaku came to the conclusion that we live in a “Matrix”.

“I have concluded that we are in a world made by rules created by an intelligence”, he affirmed. “Believe me, everything that we call chance today won’t make sense anymore.”

“To me it is clear that we exists in a plan which is governed by rules that were created, shaped by a universal intelligence and not by chance.”

You probably looked as well, but I couldn't find anything of substance on this, just this blog post attributed all over the place.  It will be interesting to see what he publishes.

Yeah it's interesting but sadly not seeing anything beyond this blog post about it.

I don't think it would make any huge paradigm shifts but I do like to keep track of the faltering of the materialist dominance in academia.

This smells suspicious... It doesn't make sense to me. If it were 1st of April it would be clear. Anyway, there must be a rabbit in the bush...

'Tachyons are theoretical particles capable to “unstick ” the Universe matter or vacuum space between matter particles, leaving everything free from the influences of the surrounding universe."

My daughter teaches english in primary school in Vietnam, and this sentence looks strikingly like the ones her students come up with :)

That made me laugh, Dana. It's a cut above the online New Age-speak generator:  http://sebpearce.com/bullshit/

Actually I think that line is the one that's made up?

Maybe it's time to resurrect the Inception Dialogues and get Kaku on, see what he really thinks?

Haha, it works pretty well.
Actually what it generated for me made more sense than the sentence above.

Hmm ... the electron re-ionizer may have a better grasp of physics though.

Kaku has been an unrepentant materialist for decades.  he writes snarky comments about parapsychology, about anyone who writes on non-materialist views of consciousness, etc.  I saw the headline and knew what to expect so didn't bother to click on it. Bernardo is right - and not even a joke, it's just ridiculous click bait.  Too bad.  The guy is smart, I'll have to give him that.  And he's actually rather endearing in some of his video spots.  But I wouldn't waste time yet with an inception dialog. He's just going to misunderstand the whole thing.

Where does he make fun of parapsychology?

oh, it's been 10, 15 or more years.  Sorry, I don't remember where I saw it.  But I did a quick search for his name + parapsychology and came up with this: http://www.mind-futures.com/kaku-in-a-box/

he's generally of a very gentle temperament and doesn't usually get too snarky or sarcastic. But I've seen him go over the edge when pushed even gently by some folks more charitable to parapsychology. And some of his work is quoted as favorable to psi, and then you look at it and its pure materialism.

If Future of Mind he said the Idealist interpretation of wave function collapse remained valid, and noted that people who say most scientists reject Orch-OR forget science isn't a popularity contest.

I don't doubt he is a physicalist but he's not a Sean Carroll or Brian Cox type.

I've about reached the saturation point for the high priests of science and their creation myths. Now I may have more affinity for the idea that the universe is pored from a cosmic teapot ;-)

Yes, Sci, i agree - he's much more "sattwic" as the Indian philosophers say; a balanced mind overall; he might be pushed over the edge, but i still am not sure it would be the best use of bernardo's time; there's so many more very talented scientists who are "ripe" for a new view.

Here Kaku explains an understanding of God (not necessarily his) by virtue of a strange and hilarious misinterpretation of the Wigner's Friend problem.
 
"If I don't know [if] the cat is alive or dead, I could also be dead at the same time, and not even know it!"

He goes on to suggest that someone needs to verify my existence, and someone needs to verify his, etc., until "finally you hit cosmic consciousness... some consciousness that's ethereal, that envelops the universe, which looks at us and says aha, the cat is alive."

Seems we've arrived at the same place. I'd withdraw most of the funding.  A century of no scientific progress would be a blessed relief.

How about we find a cure for the common cold, better treatments for cancer before a century of no scientific progress.

I wouldn't make exceptions. Colds are no problem and we can take our chances with cancer.  The benefits would outweigh the downside imho. Just an opinion.
