Great little talk he does here. I'm going to take the opportunity to put out the statement regarding facts I've been working on. It's important to philosophize about facts, because that is the fundamental topic which post-modernists (modern academia, government and media) use to undermine whatever they want.

Pressure of Light Books' statement regarding facts

[Because this small press is primarily concerned with consciousness, time, and knowledge, this statement takes the place of a company mission statement.]

The Statement:

A fact has truth and value if it passes two tests, 1) the factual-knowledge is embraced and individualized by conscious minds continuously over time and distance, and 2) despite the individualization, the fact is transferred continuously through a consistent transfer-description.

My essay, "The Pressure of Light: how conscious minds create permanence in a universe of infinite-heterogeneity", systematically compares remembered-internal-events with remembered-external-events. Based on this comparison, I assert that repetition, or permanence, and therefore contextual and causal relationships, exists for thoughts-remembered, but are nonsensical concepts in the present, or in the external universe. Facts are derived from these relationships, and so while I assert that no fact adequately describes anything in the external universe, or in the present, facts are phenomenons that do exist in each individuals conscious mind. Once a fact is externalized, it's truth is weakened by the infinite-heterogeneity of the universe. If it is offered to another conscious mind, however, then that mind has the option of internalizing the imperfect fact and individualizing the knowledge, so that it becomes perfectly true in their own mind through the act of remembered-thinking.

A fact disseminated from a single source to a group, with the intention of unifying the fact among the group through enforced consistency in the transfer-description, suffers imperfection. The factual knowledge is continually weakened by the absence of individualization of the knowledge in each conscious mind, and the absence of a test as to how much consistency the transfer-description retains naturally through individual communication. On the other hand, a fact disseminated from a single source to a group without enforcement, may very well be embraced repeatedly by many, many conscious minds, each individualizing the factual knowledge, while retaining consistency in the transfer-description as the fact passes through a population. This, I assert, based on the outcomes of my essay, is the true test of the value of facts: a test of whether the factual-knowledge is embraced and individualized by conscious minds over time and distance, while at the same time retaining consistency in transfer-description.
