Description
Author, Richard Grossinger, with a PhD in ecological anthropology discusses his newest book, Bottoming Out the Universe; Why There is Something Rather Than Nothing. We'll delve into the relationship between an objective physical universe and our subjective experience of it. Look closer at the Big Bang. We'll explore how neuroscientists explain consciousness, if artificial consciousness is actually consciousness and what are conscious and unconscious motives of debunkers. We'll delve into the real nature of past-life memories, discuss if scientific materialism is an inadvertent source of Trumpian ideology....and much more - including if the universe is a computer simulation and how ETs might accomplish inter-stellar travel.
