Chapter 38: The Philosophy of Existence (2)

"What's wrong with you, you seem to be drinking a little too much......

"Was this party enjoyable?" Thea asked quietly, it was the first time she had seen Xiao Zuo's slightly drunk expression, and she hurriedly made him a cup of flower tea.

In her understanding, Xiao Zuo usually does not usually refuse to participate in this kind of party at all.

"Because I solved a big problem in my heart!"

Xiao Zuo supported his dizzy head with his hand, and said with a smile: "I found that talking to smarter people doesn't require any special means of communication, and direct inquiry is the best way." And the questions they were thinking about were very interesting......"

As soon as he talked about this question, it seemed to touch his itch and became gushing: "At the beginning of the meeting, first the mathematicians despised the physicists. ”

"Contempt?" Thea wondered.

"You know, Mr. Rimbaud, the other day I published an article on particle physics about extra dimensions, which are legends...... Technology above L5. He wanted to show it off, but the mathematicians thought it was, but at least he was using equations to show off. ”

Speaking of which, Chauzo was in a good mood, he was certainly on the side of the mathematicians, and belittling the physicists was their greatest pleasure. The most important thing is that the girl can understand him, which brings a special pleasure.

"And then?" Sure enough, Seaa suddenly became interested.

She is still very curious about the gossip of these top people.

Dr. Rimbaud, Prof. Ding Yidong, Prof. Haiger, Prof. Roman...... These geniuses who started from the moon and the first generation are still really top figures today, and it is not easy to be their students.

And there is one thing that she finds very funny, the new human has only mastered the genetic dynamics of L4 a little bit, and wants to play with the latter stuff again. Although these things are getting harder and harder, progress is like a snail crawling...... The abstraction of the extra-dimensional world is already unimaginable to ordinary people.

Perhaps it is this curiosity that is the driving force behind the progress of the new human race.

Dr. Rimbaud still had that temper, and argued that he certainly could not argue with mathematicians, for the foundations of physics were not very solid, and were largely based on speculation. He could only extend the problem to reductionism and let the majority of his comrades-in-arms participate in the war together. ”

He thinks...... Only physics can explain everything in the universe, from astronomy and geography to the molecular structure of the grapevine that you have just eaten...... Only physics can fully explain it. ”

"You know reductionism...... He believes that the essence of society is life, the essence of life is chemistry, and the essence of chemistry is physics, so he thinks that physics is already the most awesome thing. ”

Speaking of pleasure, Xiao Zuo followed Dr. Rimbaud's original words: "As long as we find a unified physical theory, all the secrets of the world can be known!" That's our ultimate goal! Math is just a tool...... What about creatures, of course creatures can't! Neither can chemistry! Society can't do it anymore! ”

But soon someone jumped out, and it was the biologist Mr. Roman, who believed that reductionism was not necessarily correct. They even think that physicalism is not correct! ”

"Because of our sense of self, there is no system that can fully depict it, and this involves strong intellectual barriers...... Physics alone may not be enough. ”

Moreover, physics can only describe how the universe came into being, but not why the universe came into being, why it is the way it is. Why not something else? Why? ”

Xiao Zuo spat out a long list of nouns, and at the same time expressed his doubts.

In this era, these terms are no longer esoteric things, and they are basically in universal education. Thea held her chin and listened with relish.

She thinks that such a serious man is attractive and cute. Perhaps the aesthetics of the Noah are like that themselves......

She asked, "These things that cannot be explained by physics are philosophical questions, and then they come to ultimate questions, right?" Philosophical questions have always been difficult to prove. ”

"yes, the ultimate question...... You guessed it right. ”

Xiao Zuo's face was slightly gloomy: "Immediately after, they began to discuss what they had discussed with the Sower Civilization. It's a shame we didn't experience that...... So far, the most glorious time of the new human race. ”

Yes, those hours have become legendary so far, and they are often talked about......

Even Yu Yifeng had to admit that that period of philosophical speculation with the sower had become a glorious moment for the entire civilization.

At least there are no ancients before, and it is not known whether there will be anyone coming from behind.

Not being able to witness that time with his own eyes, Xiao Zuo showed a very regretful expression on his face.

But he quickly shakes off this emotion and continues to tell what he heard in the evening.

Listening to the debates of the most elite people in civilization, even if he was an observer and did not speak, he felt a kind of heaviness that was about to come.

Almost everyone is speaking freely, discussing the truth in their hearts, like a collision between each other's ideal countries. The great scientist stood at this level, learned more things, and had a faint guess about the world.

Large to observable universe and small Planck length.

All the questions sound completely unfounded, and when the mediocre people hear it, they will only say "this group of people have a problem with their brains", but they can only be those mediocre people.

They never knew that the whole world was ruled by smart people and made rules.

This collision of ideas actually made Xiao Zuo feel boundless killing!

The insignificant man is describing the whole universe with wisdom, but the limited wisdom inevitably leads to this depiction being incomplete. It's like a grasshopper in a bowl bouncing, no matter how it jumps, it's just so high, ridiculous.

But this kind of "jumping" is a great courage in itself.

They have become philosophers, and some believe that we can never know about the ultimate question.

There is also a group of people who directly declare that there is no ultimate ...... at all

What God should be, and what God should be. This kind of "God" is not what religion describes, but "nature".

This group of madmen is actually directing what God should do?

The huge impact made Xiao Zuo directly stunned. He had to sigh that everyone was more daring and absurd than he imagined, and the collision of various ideas was like a shocking wave......

It was a harbinger of an imminent collapse of the ideology!

Fortunately, an elder around him immediately woke him up and signaled with a smile, allowing him to survive in time.

"Until now, I was still in a cold sweat, and I almost died suddenly! Sudden death! Xiao Zuo's eyebrows fluttered as he described what he had heard, and his face turned red.

“…… But I feel a deeper sense of unique beauty. There are a lot of things that I didn't think about. ”

It's hard to put into words, and I want to do it again.

Because of his high IQ, his memory is very good, and he can basically recite exactly the same thing after listening to it once. In this process, a face went from red to white, and then to red, and even the heartbeat accelerated again, and I felt that murderous opportunity again, and I was nervously breathless!

"So...... The answer? The answer to the ultimate question. Thea also asked nervously.

"I don't know."

After a while, Xiao Zuo relieved his breath and spread his hands: "In the process of debate, we gradually leaned towards pessimism. It's too far away, too far away...... We don't even know what this ultimate question is, where the answer is......"

"I really admire Dr. Rimbaud, who, under such tremendous pressure, still retorts vigorously, firmly believing in his reductionist truth."

Thea didn't ask any more questions, as if she was lost in thought.

The smartest group of people on the Noah even thought that the future was pessimistic...... This view made her a little uncomfortable.

At this time, I finally couldn't help it and asked: I don't know the ultimate question, I don't know the answer, do you ...... Not anxious? Xiao Zuo sighed and said.

He often thinks about these questions secretly, and he is also pessimistic. The philosophical tree is too ethereal and too grandiose.

But it's beautiful and nice to live in this world...... If survival is just for survival, it is too unbeautiful, too boring, and what is the difference between it and a stone?

Xiao Zuo let out a long sigh: "I may have asked an inappropriate question, and everyone was silent." After a long time, Captain Yu said: Your question...... Anxiety. How not to be anxious? Especially when you know more and more, and even know that you will never know the answers to these questions in your life, the anxiety is even greater. ”

"At night, I can't sleep with anxiety, but during the day, I am physically troubled and drowsy, but I can't help but think about a question that has no answer and doesn't know the problem."

There was silence for a long time, and everyone suddenly burst into laughter again.

Xiao Zuo applauded nervously: "Mr. Yu said again: Later, I gradually figured out that the ultimate is great, vast, and boundless...... How can finite pursue infinity? Our pursuit is nothing more than to advance a little, a little bit on this path. ”

"The sowers have long said that we ourselves ...... That's part of the search for answers. ”
