Hi Alberto,
As I see it, the idea that the noumena are specific and definite
without being given in association with phenomena is false as it implies
that the "things in themselves"" have innate properties for no reason
whatsoever...

Can not you see, Bruno, that this stipulation makes existence
contingent upon the ability to be defined by a symbol and thus on
human whim? It is the tool-maker and user that is talking through
you here.
Confusion of level. The stipulation used to described such
existence does not makes such existence contingent at all. Only
the stipulation is contingent, not its content, which can be
considered as absolute, as we work in the standard model (by the
very definition of comp: we work with standard comp (we would not
say "yes" to a doctor if he propose a non standard cording of our
brain).
That gives a testable toy theology (testable as such a theology
contains the physics as a subpart).
Testable, sure, but theology should never be contingent. It
must flow from pure necessity and our finite models are simply
insufficient for this task.
First our model is not finite, only our theories and machines are.
And the AUDA illustrates clearly that theology's shape (the
hypostases) follows pure necessity, even if all machine will
define a particular arithmetical content for each theology, but
this is natural, as it concerns the private life of individual
machine (it is the same for us by default in all religion).
