God's Debris
God's Debris: A Thought Experiment | Scott Adams
3 posts | 7 read | 2 to read
God's Debris is the first non-Dilbert, non-humor book by best-selling author Scott Adams. Adams describes God's Debris as a thought experiment wrapped in a story. It's designed to make your brain spin around inside your skull. Imagine that you meet a very old man who—you eventually realize—knows literally everything. Imagine that he explains for you the great mysteries of life: quantum physics, evolution, God, gravity, light psychic phenomenon, and probability—in a way so simple, so novel, and so compelling that it all fits together and makes perfect sense. What does it feel like to suddenly understand everything? You may not find the final answer to the big question, but God's Debris might provide the most compelling vision of reality you will ever read. The thought experiment is this: Try to figure out what's wrong with the old man's explanation of reality. Share the book with your smart friends, then discuss it later while enjoying a beverage. It has no violence or sex, but the ideas are powerful and not appropriate for readers under fourteen.

Definitely an interesting experiment, but it often lapses into that metaphor/logic loop It mostly seems to ask the reader to consider a probability method of thought, instead of pattern recognition, which is important for sure, but it's pitched by a guy who comes off as an armchair philosopher - which might be the point - but even the wording of the introduction kind of adds to that tone.

This audiobook is the most absurd thing I have heard in a long time. While not ment to be funny it's freaking hilarious.
