Theology is an objective, derivative. human pursuit based on reason,

being objective (3p), cannot be free of error.
OK.
Only the consciousness root of our subjectivity is undoubtable and
cannot been made wrong.
The objective is what is doubtable, and indeed science progresses by
refuting the objective theories.
Only faith (1p),
being doubly subjective (guided by the HS), cannot be free of error.
OK. But not all the subjective. On some point the subjective can be
wrong too.
Obviously I cannot prove that.
Comp can prove that for all ideally correct machines, there are true
but non expressible fact. And also that there are true, expressible,
but non justifiable facts. Machine's subjectivity is very rich and
variate.

Separated, yes. But accesible to all IMHO.
But then why separate them? Why not allowing seriousness in
theology. To ease our fear of death? That's the local goal, and it
makes sense locally, but it leads to more problems, especially if
everyone can access it: no need of authoritative argument. The bible
is a venerable human text, but like all prose, it does not need
literal interpretation, or we get insane, and let fight between big-
enders and small-enders (cf Voltaire).

Hi Bruno Marchal and all--
Rather than living in such a dreary scientific world,
yhe point is to escape from the world of science
into the world of Mind.
Those worlds are not necessarily separated.

we have no way to ascertain existence and qualia, we just THINK.
Our science is based on SOME info we don't know exactly, not even
if it is like we think it is. We calculate in our human logic
(stupidity would be more accurate) and then comes a newer
enlightenment and we change it all. Brent wrote a nice list of
such changes lately. I use the classic Flat Earth.
But we live happily ever after and before (not knowing if TIME
does indeed exist?). And some of us get Nobel prizes. Congrats.
So: happy illusions!
Science is only that. The courage to be stupid, and the hope that
this might help to be a little bit less stupid tomorrow.
But being wrong is, in fact, not really like being stupid. The
real stupidity is what persists. It is staying wrong despite
evidences. This happens often when people try to measure/judge
intelligence and stupidity, especially their own, which makes no
sense. We can evaluate special competence, but we can't evaluate
intelligence.

It must be an illusion. Either that or MWI is an illusion. Doesn't
