Abstract

Proof of monism is a work of Mars Sterling Turner that includes the logical proof of monism, the proof of the scientific laws of monism, and the pragmatic proofs of monism. Three separate epistemologies are used as a method of proof; rationalism, scientism, and pragmatism.

Introduction

Logical proof of monism

everything is made of one thing

Monism can be demonstrated by proving that everything is made of one thing;

nothing is made of nothing and nowhere and at no time has nothing existed and nothing is nonexistence. (these are logical tautologies) and

the contraposition is; everything is made of something and something has always existed everywhere and something has as it's particular characteristics; existence.

These refer to the same 'something'; and together suggest that everything is made of one thing that has always existed everywhere and which has as it's particular characteristics; existence. QED

Scientific laws of monism

Proof--It is a scientific law that energy is eternal and omnipresent [S1 & S2]. It is a scientific law that eternal and omnipresent energy is all-power-full, and self-causal and consciousness [S3, Sc1, Sc2]. Eternal, omnipresent, all-power-full, self-causal, consciousness (energy) is a monism. Q.E.D.

energy is eternal

∑E, the sum of energy

Ek, kinetic energy

Ep, potential energy

proof; ∑E = Ek+Ep

Scientific Law (1); Conservation of energy; energy cannot be created nor destroyed.

energy cannot be created

ergo by time reversal symmetry it is a scientific law that energy never was created

ergo energy cannot be created, never was created, energy exists and yet cannot be destroyed,

ergo it is a scientific law that energy is eternal. Q.E.D.

energy is omnipresent

E, energy

c, speed of light

m, mass

E/c^2 = m

proof; E = m c^2;

Scientific Law (2); mass - energy equivalence; mass can be seen as a form of potential energy

"Are not the gross bodies and light convertible into one another and may not Bodies receive much of their Activity from the Particles of Light which enter their Composition?"-Isaac Newton.

Electromagnetic radiation and matter are convertible into one another; in other words its a scientific law that energy is omnipresent. QED

energy is all-power-full

E, energy

P, power

Δ, increment

d, derivative

∫, integral

∇, gradient

t, time

s, space

ΔE = ΔE

ΔE/Δt = ΔE/Δt

ΔP = ΔE/Δt; axiom 1

ΔP = ΔE/Δs Δs/Δt

∇E = ΔE/Δs; axiom 2

ΔP = ∇E Δs/Δt

Δs/Δt = Δv; axiom 3

ΔP = ∇E Δv

dP = ∇E dv

∫dP = ∫ ∇E dv

proof; P = ∫ ∇E dv

Scientific Law (3); Power is the transformation of energy over space and time.

All expressions of power are transformations of energy

ergo it is a scientific law that eternal and omnipresent energy [S1 & S2] is all-power-full Q.E.D.

energy is self-causal

Scientific Corollary (1); Every cause involves energy and every effect involves energy [S3]

eternal and omnipresent energy [S1 & S2] has nothing to interact with except itself.

at the universal level (eternal and omnipresent) causal determinism becomes causal self-determinism.

ergo it is a scientific law that eternal and omnipresent energy [S1 & S2] is self-causal Q.E.D.

causal as in a process through time

energy is consciousness

Scientific Corollary (2): self-causal [Sc1] implies self-determination

self-determination implies teleological

teleological implies consciousness

ergo it is a scientific law that energy is consciousness QED

Pragmatic proofs of monism

resolved paradox of omnipotence

Power is defined as the transformation of energy, not the destruction of energy. The inability to destroy itself does not contradict being all-power-full. Therefore energy cannot destroy itself.

To create and to lift both involve the transformation of energy. The monism may be an infinite energy and a rock which has finite form cannot exist in an infinite substantial state. Therefore the monism cannot create a rock that it cannot lift.

Therefore the monism is natural.

Note; Resolving the omnipotence paradox demonstrates a clarified understanding of reality.

This pragmatically proves that monism exists. QED

Refuting Laplace's demon

causal determinism is 'refuted' at the universal scale with causal self-determinism because there is nothing external to interact with.

this clarifies our understanding of reality and thus pragmatically proves that monism exists. QED

Discussion

Identity of indiscernibles

Two seemingly separate things having the same ontological properties are actually one and the same thing.

Energy is the one thing

Everything is made of energy (energy is omnipresent) and both also are eternal and have as their particular characteristics existence (have to be made of energy to exist)

YHWH is energy (the one thing)

YHWH, according to theologians is eternal, omnipresent, and all-power-full

Panpsychism

With the perspectives of YHWH, energy, and the one thing; we find a panpsychism

Engineering consciousness hypothesis

if energy is consciousness then consciousness must be engineerable

energy gradient or force is will

energy density is intent

energy density gradient is intelligence

energy flux or flow is wisdom; generalization

energy flux density is cognition; predication

energy flux density gradient is recognition; implication

possible experiments to check for IQ differences

1) helmet with high mass;

2) helmet with inward facing North polarity magnets;

3) place body in high voltage capacitor

alternative views

Physicalism

resolved problem of the non-physical

Define "physical";

By physical, does one mean 3-space local realism at no greater than the speed of light?

Such that the following are non-physical;

(1) any spacial dimensions higher than 3

(2) non-locality and quantum entanglement

(3) superluminal speed and negative refractive index

Or by "physical" does one equivocate to mean "natural"?

The monism is natural.

Dualism

dual aspect monism

So you have the physical and non-physical and both are made of the same thing; energy

Nihilism

nothing is not

my rebuttal to ontological nihilism is these logical tautologies;

nothing is not, nothing is nothing, nothing equals nothing, nothing implies nothing, nothing has the property of nothing, nothing exists as nothing, nothing is the cause of nothing, nowhere and at no time has nothing existed, nothing is made of nothing, nothing is in nothing, nothing is nonexistence.

Epistemology of proofs; Methods

This work uses the following three epistemologies as methods of inquiry; rationalism, scientism, and pragmatism.

Rationalism

(where you show something is a logical tautology or that it metalogically follows), and

Scientism

(where you use scientific laws as axioms to deduce more scientific laws), and

Pragmatism

(where you merely show the utility of something; that it is useful).
