and must each therefore contain the description of either the entire rest of the universe, or all future "interactions" which will appear to occur.

Hrmm. Presumably God knows every "interaction" that will occur - so he just has to program each object to do A, B, C, D, and so on - there's no need for such a description. Is there? Evercat 22:51, 13 Oct 2003 (UTC)

I think that's Occasionalism, and interpretations beyond it, where all "events" and "perceptions" are stage-managed by God. I see no difference between that interpretation, and us being imaginary characters in God's mind, given that God would (given our present understanding) also have to micro-manage or create the illusion of, every nerve-firing and its mental correlates. -- Karada 22:58, 13 Oct 2003 (UTC)

Hrmm. I just wrote Occasionalism too. :-) The difference as I understand it is that under PEH, everything is set up by God in advance, whereas Occasionalism has God constantly taking an active role... Evercat 23:01, 13 Oct 2003 (UTC)

OK, forget what I wrote at the top. I think I understand now - these are just 2 different ways God could write the "program" of each object, right? Evercat

Yes. However, the fact that you didn't interpret d that sentence as I intended is my fault, not yours: I can't have phrased it clearly enough -- could you improve it please? -- Karada 23:16, 13 Oct 2003 (UTC)

OK, I've tried to. Evercat

Harmonic Monads

Precisely what was originally harmonized? Body monads were harmonized with soul (or mind) monads. As a result, what is in a person’s head exactly mirrors what is outside of that person’s head. Does the Wikipedia article clearly communicate this thought?96.235.173.81 (talk) 03:21, 27 September 2020 (UTC)DeAntwan Bivens[reply]
