Talk:Antireductionism

thread_title:  what does it mean? 

message: The article is written from a standpoint of antireductionism, for instance claiming that reductionism, or quantitative approaches, are not fruitful in ecology without a citation. The article needs to present antireductionism without endorsing it. And also note that antireductionism does not necessarily mean the abandonment of science or quantitative approaches - the fields of emergence and systems biology attest to this.

thread_title: POV bias

message: I've removed an old neutrality tag from this page that appears to have no active discussion per the instructions at Template:POV:
::This template is not meant to be a permanent resident on any article. Remove this template whenever:
::#There is consensus on the talkpage or the NPOV Noticeboard that the issue has been resolved
::#It is not clear what the neutrality issue is, and no satisfactory explanation has been given
::#In the absence of any discussion, or if the discussion has become dormant.
Since there's no evidence of ongoing discussion, I'm removing the tag for now. If discussion is continuing and I've failed to see it, however, please feel free to restore the template and continue to address the issues. Thanks to everybody working on this one! -- Khazar2 (talk) 23:41, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  removing POV tag with no active discussion per [[Template:POV]] 

message: Brews, a lot of the style here doesn't work, like saying "an example of ..." that is conversational verging on OR/SYNTH.   I can find some time later on in the week to go through it but you know the objections from previous articles.  Much easier if the primary edit avoids a conversational style which is appropriate to a lecture but not to wikipedia. ----Snowded TALK 19:44, 23 March 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: The paragraph on Davidson is not my contribution, although I did try to make sense out of it. Perhaps you could be specific about other stylistic occurrences you would like changed? Brews ohare (talk) 19:50, 25 March 2015 (UTC)

message: * Antireductionism is an impossibility because even the supernatural (if it exists), is part of the system we want to describe.
* Antireductionism is an impossibility because the supernatural not only isn't reachable and teachable, but also it cannot be scientifically hypothesized, because it is not the result of a logically rigorous procedurality (complicated procedures) based on mathematical or allomathematical (allo-/different; mathematical system based on a different axiomatic list or algorithm or hybrid) axiomaticity (axioms which obey logical rules and are able to produce substantiality/existence (not all possible mathematical systems are in themselves a form of some other physics; many mathematical systems [I include different mathematical systems; for example ones of experimental axiomatics] can describe physics with different operations and formulas, but not necessarily meet the criteria of self-causation/physicality/being ontological Turing machines (being their own axiomatics, software and hardware, all of the same mathematical nature, and not merely calculators, but spatiotemporal/spacetime generators + self-caused due to their foundational logic [logicogony: any logical physics based on its own allomathematics which is describable in common mathematics, necessarily self-exists due to its mathematical correctness].
It doesn't matter that we can describe the universe according to common mathematics. I most probably doesn't have the common-mathematics axiomatics, because the universe wasn't created as a calculational system; the universe and it's own mathematics have to meet the criteria of self-causation of the ontological Turing machine, and ways to deal with the problems of axiomaticity/axiomatics (incompleteness, inconsistency and incalculability [per system one of these problems can be avoided, but by no means all of them]). Physical axiomatics = axiomatic foundations, of any (even different) possible universe, need particular workarounds in order they handle without to cancel the problems of axiomaticity. The uncertainty principle, entropy (even the fact that the universe expands by introducing more spacetime, is a form of ontological/wavefunctional entropy) can be viewed as ontoaxiomatic workarounds (ontoaxiomatics = axiomatic rules related to physical systems = ontologically possible; still mathematical).
Unmathematical cosmoi/worlds and realities are totally impossible; because without logical foundations, there is no identity/no "self", even impersonal characteristics for an object/system. Thus the supernatural cannot exist. It is an impossibility.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:2149:8AB8:3F00:C033:18DC:697F:2F46 (talk) 14:15, 24 January 2023 (UTC)
