Let's see if I have this down. When Chris points out in his Knowles interview that it can't be as simple as the past causing the future and that "the past and the future must cause EACH OTHER in a loop", is he saying that since the past refers to the future and since you can't refer to something that isn't real, the future's existence is not caused by the past since it has to be assumed to "already" exist? And also that since determinism doesn't work, and you must have freedom in the universe, the future must cause that which causes itself, and this is "meta-causation"?

Tommy says "it depends." An excellent answer. Here's what it led me to. Let's say that telesis is infinite in quantity. An unlimited resource. If it is the case that telsis is infinite in quantity -then it must be limited in its availability; by virtue of it's dependence on God's ability to harvest it, and the Devils ability to harness or parasitize it. We must assume that in a sea of unlimited amounts of raw unbound telesis -God's ability to harvest it: is limited, or at risk of becoming inferior to the Devils ability to parasitize it; once it becomes bound telesis within the terminal domain -were the Devil is also bound. If telesis was not limited in this manner or another; then the conflict between God and the Devil would be non-existent. God will not destroy the Devil, becuase the devil is a critical component of the terminal domain that has gone awry - thus the Devil must be reconciled and saved, if the terminal domain is to be saved. So in the hypothetical instance that unbound telesis is infinite in quantity: the conflict between God and the Devil then imparts that God's ability to harvest, utilize, and secure sufficent amounts of unbound telesis to achive his will within the terminal domain; is in question. If God is all knowing, this would not be in question -it would be known fact. And so I think that God is very aware -that: there are more ways to fuck this up; than there are ways to get it right. Yes -God is all knowing, and all powerful- but he is not all controlling. This terminal domain we all reside in is an unprecedented attempt of self actualization. I apriciate this very much. It is my beleif, and I beleive I have attained it through the process of logical induction; applied to the CTMU. This feels quite fitting considering that the CTMU was itself created through logical induction.

Does the non-terminal domain generate the terminal domian? Does the non-terminal domain do this through descriptive endomorphism? ----------------- Bound telesis is simply raw unbound telesis from the non-terminal domain: that has been configured into matter or energy; as it enters the ternimal domain. Correct? Descriptive endomorphism generates particles into space from unbound telesis. Correct? Linear ectomorphism then generates objects such as: atoms, molecules, stars and more -with those particles. Correct? Should the main body of unbound telesis not shrink as more of it becomes bound telesis and generates into particles?

"Mind Equals Reality." Without Reality, there is no Mind, and without a Mind, there is no Reality. This is, of course, true at a human scale: we would have no experience of the world and no way to interact with or control reality if not for our mind, but what does this have to do with reality theory? This confusion marks an inescapable dualism in human thought between the human being and reality. We see ourselves as separate entities living 'inside our skins', and our intelligence, creativity, drives, needs, and desires are ours and ours alone. According to materialistic cosmology, we are alive, and the universe is dead. But the CTMU presents a radically different worldview: we are alive, and the universe lives (in part) through us. We are not APART FROM reality. We are A PART OF reality and hence produce a conscious experience of reality by itself. The CTMU says that there is only ONE BEING in all of existence (the universal mind), and we are interconnected in ways not discernible on this plane of reality. Reality is both logical and experiential, meaning that part of the way that the universe shapes its evolution is through experience, which manifests in our minds as conscious awareness of being a separate entity. But, in reality, we are not separate entities; we are not "inside our skins" but shape reality through agentive telesis, forming an integral part of reality's structure and dynamics as observer-participants. Reality itself is fundamentally mental: our individual minds emerge from the fabric of reality, which contains by its very structure the potential for human consciousness. We are not individuals; we are, in reality, EXPRESSING ITSELF as an individual. Reality itself contains the unified viewpoint of every mind and beyond, producing a bright and vivid experience of reality and the universal self, which language can only begin to describe. The universe is ALIVE and conscious, and we are IMPORTANT, not because of our physical size but because of our incredible mental ability. It is through the connection of our minds that we are attached to the MIND OF GOD, in whose image and likeness we are made.
