This universality, as you yourself define it, ensures that all

one and the same mind. There is no plurality generated unless there
is a necessitation of a physical state association to a mind, but
this would contradict comp.
No I it doesn't contradict comp, because the associated physics isn't
ontologically primitive, it's part of what is generated by the UD.
Hi Brent,
Until there is a precise explanation of what this phrase
"generation by the UD" might mean, we have just a repeated meaningless
combinations of letters appearing on our computer monitors.
But I think it is right that there must be an associated physics,
that 'mind' cannot exist independent of a physical world it experiences.
Please explain this to Bruno, as it is that I am complaining about
in his step 8.
Of course whether it must be a physical world exactly like ours or
wildly different is the 'white rabbit' problem.
Have you noticed that I am discussing a solution to the white
rabbit problem using ideas from game theory?
