Bill Gaede's Einstein's idiots

"What about non physical entities like files in my hard drive? They do not have physicality nor shape but they do exist."
.
You are confusing the scientific definition of exist with the one we use in ordinary speech. A scientific definition is one that you can use consistently (i.e., rationally).

So let's apply the scientific definition to your 'files' to see if we can say that they exist.

file: a collection of related data or program records...

It is clear that 'a' file is not an object. A tree, a rock, a dog, have shape. 'A' file does not have shape. Therefore, 'a' file is not a noun for the purposes of Science. 'A' file is a concept. You cannot point with your finger to 'a' file any more than you can point with your finger to beauty or justice. We can say that the tree fell, the rock flew, the dog ran. We cannot say that 'the' computer file moved or was archived. Not in Science! This is ordinary speech, inconsistent language.

Hence, your computer file does not meet the minimum criterion of 'exist': it is not even an object.



"challenges the ridiculous explanations the mathematical establishment offers for how Mother Nature runs her shop"

That's what the articles are about.

But the main point I want to get out there to anyone who may listen is that we are the last humans on Earth (Vids 14-18).

The problems we are witnessing in the global economy are terminal. We have no way to overcome them despite foreknowledge, intelligence, and technology.
