The Metaphysical Basis
Posted this exact same essay on Google docs sometime last month, my blog really should have seen it first, but oh well 🤷🏿♂️
The Metaphysical Basis
A tree is not made from atoms, there is only a tree.
The scientist argues, “That is nonsense, atoms exist if only you'd use an electron microscope to view them!”
To which the intelligent philosopher responds, “Either view, the tree or the atoms, depends on how you look at it. The tree might as well be a "pixel" of green if viewed from outer space and all other views cease to exist!”
I imagine the scientist finding the philosopher's "fallacious" proposition irritating, obviously these three different states of the tree exist! There is a tree; there are atoms of this tree and there is a view of the tree from space.
But then, there is no disembodied human eye looking through an invisible electron microscope to see the atoms of the tree when no one is trying to view the atoms; nor is there a disembodied eye viewing the tree from an invisible spacecraft.
"But then the atoms exist if you view it or not!" protests the scientist.
But an atom in what sense? An atom in relation to who or what? Clearly not the atom seen under the electron microscope, that view is relative to the apparatus viewing it in that particular way. There is no atom relative to the base human eye which, at best, sees the brown bark via the visible light spectrum.
"The objective atom! The atom that exists in of itself!" says the scientist, clinging to his ever slippery understanding of the atom. "Ah-ha" he says, "This is the atom that exists when no one views it" smirking sheepishly.

The Burden of Purpose (A Philosophical Concept)
- The utmost thinking being(s)’s [Be it humans or gods or a God] existence was not planned.
- If the being is omnipotent [All-powerful], it is not bound to any laws and can override any laws given to its self upon its creation.
- If the being is omniscient [All-knowing], it knows its beginning and, if it has an end, its end.

On Mental Health and Improving Technology
I honestly try to avoid talking on current matters affecting the world, but I feel extremely urged to talk on this one for reasons which I shall bring forth within this short write up.
Firstly, I would also like to state that this post initially did not come about due to the Sudan situation, the train of thought had just arrived there after numerous thoughts had passed by. For how to start this, I am really not sure, I feel it would be best delving straight into the issues at hand, but, before I do that, I have one very huge task to ask of everyone reading...
Please Please Please Please... Turn off your auto-pilot for the duration of this post, please be reflective, and please take your time to think about the points I bring up. Thank you.
