Einstein already proved that space and time are basically the same thing.
What would there be against spacetime being the ultimate reality? I honestly can't think of anything that would be a prior truth for it, or how an intellect, abstract as it may be, could bring forth spacetime?
Well whether they are unified or not, God still cannot exist in space-time because His nature would then necessitate a prior truth, meaning He wouldn't be self-necessary. If God isn't self-necessary, then God probably wouldn't exist, because there is no need for such a being.
But the reason why time-space can't exist as the ultimate reality has been explained in my prior posts. If it's not fully explained here, then there also posts explaining it in the social thread.
To sum it up very quickly (you'll still need to read my previous posts) I argued that complexities necessitate prior truths. Time and space are ocmplexities, therefore they necessitate prior truths. Complexities don't encompass all being, therefore a compelxity cannot be the ultimate reality/ original being.
For example, the concept of fauna is more simple than the concept of mammals. Mammals is the particular which stems from fauna, the universal. Fauna encompasses more than mammals does, for it is simpler, in that it has a less specific form, On the same token, fauna is also a particular to animate life, which is the universal in this case. We see that the more simple or universal a being is, the more particulars that stem from it, the more it encompasses.
Eventually, we regress back to the ultimate universal being, one with no complexities at all, one that encompasses all particulars and all being. This being must essentially be almost a 'nothingness' for nothingness necessitates no prior truths.
However, it isn't just a nothingness, it is a being. We know it must be a being because given the fact that we know that things exist (such as ourselves), there must have always been a being, for something can't come from nothing.
The reason why I attribute this being an intellect is because it is the only trait that fits a simple, foundational, self-necessary being that distinguishes it from nothingness. It is the only trait that makes it something rather than nothing, yet at the same time does not comprimise its simple nature. Because the being must be immaterial (for it exists outside of time and space) it must be a mind, for any other traits would render it subject to physical laws, thus making it material, which would make it a complexity, necessitating prior truths.
That's a summed up version of the argument.
For all those people criticising the idea that a mind could actuate states of affairs, let me ask you this; do you find it impossible that an immaterial reality could precede a material one?
If you do find it impossible, then that needss some serious justification. If you believe it is possible, then that is no different to what I am saying, so I wouldn't see why you would criticise my theory.
Can you guys turn the debate onto something else now, I don't want to have to keep defending myself, I've put my position across and heard your issues, it won't go anywhere from here. Maybe you guys can address the question I just put across.
