Famous Dr. Cody Newman Quotes

“Wilder Penfield concluded that the intellect and the will are not from the brain. They are from the mind. And that means that the mind can exist without the brain, without the body. It can exist non-locally, as a disembodied, out-of-body mind. And, in that state, it can be intellectual, conscious, and exercise its will. It can survive death like that. Plato and Aristotle both insisted that the reasoning part of the soul (the nous) was the “cosmic” part of the soul, and immortal. So, the part of the soul that engages in reason and logic, abstraction, conceptualization, intellectualism – all the stuff that prodding the brain or giving it an epileptic jolt cannot cause – is the part separate from physicality, hence cannot perish. Neuroscience has proved the great philosophers right!”

“No supporter of reason and logic, no one convinced by reason and logic, would ever say, “You know what, it’s irrational and illogical to go all the way to absolute rationality and logic. We ought to stop at 87.3% of absolute rationality and logic. That would of course be an arbitrary, hence irrational and illogical, stance. Once you have embarked upon the road of reason and logic, you must go all the way to 100% reason and logic since there is no reason or logic why you wouldn’t.”

“The frequency domain of mind (a mind, it must be stressed, is an unextended, massless, immaterial singularity) can produce an extended, spacetime domain of matter via ontological Fourier mathematics, and the two domains interact via inverse and forward Fourier transforms. An inverse Fourier transform converts a frequency (mind) function into a spacetime (material) function, and a forward Fourier transform does the opposite. So, mind can causally affect the material world, and matter can inform mind about its condition, its state. This is thus the long-sought answer to the world-historic problem of Cartesian substance dualism.”
