It is fairly easy to look at the motion of the universe, rocks in space, and accept that a series of spirals defined and controlled by a simple algorithm might have some merit. It is quite another thing to look at the human experience, it's moods and its apparent self-determination, its ability to solve for the algorithm that underlies its movement. Logic decries the algorithm. At the same time, however, logic accepts math and physics and math and physics have to arise from some core. Whether you accept a simple algorithm or a multitude (pre AuT thinking) of separate and distinct, independent algorithms, in the end you arrive at a similar point of beginning.
Things, even complicated things like thought are either caused by or described by algorithms. That is they reflect chemical and electrical processes. The soul, god are not defined by these mechanisms, but they remain too amorphous to be given a specific role in science, at least not yet.
Doesn't mean I don't pray, that I'm not thankful. There is little support for faith in science, but even accepting an algorithm based universe, faith is not eviscerated until the features of g-space are better defined, and perhaps even then.
The sequential nature of each and every movement suggests a line. The pre-AuT reliance on time instead of the solution at a given point of one or more Algorithms is merely symantics.
The operation of the algorithm suggests a watch. This is not the keeping of time, however, but instead the clock itself as a static device which, if observed in operation, gives a representation of time. It makes for a compelling analogy for study, which is the reflection and which is the original?
