The Hoax of Materialism

The Hoax of Materialism | The Machine Wins (left); The Human Spirit Wins (right)

It’s been said you know a man by his choices.  One of our most important and fundamental choices is a choice between a belief in materialism, or a belief that something more exists than is presented to us in the physical world; if you choose materialism you have unwittingly established a partnership with ‘The Machine’ and your future will necessarily be a stark, gray, dry, dusty moonscape devoid of the juice of life or meaning; because after all, materialism tells us we are merely cause and effect of the material world. Such is the dreary life of the man who chooses materialism to the exclusion of all else. Mistaken as truth or science, the belief in materialism provides a naïve and short-sighted pathway to the religion of death where concepts like infanticide become a reasonable choice for family planning.

In the material world there is no right or wrong; no good or evil just cause and effect. We have shirked our responsibility; we fail to take ownership of our actions, and so we are turned over to our own devices and sent strong delusions by the machine.

Like cackling hyenas over a recent kill, we feast at the hoax sold to us as sexual freedom, we choose death over life, debauchery over love and are left howling into the vast existential abyss of meaninglessness. The machine wins.

Wikipedia: Materialism holds that the only thing that exists is matter or energy; that all things are composed of material and all phenomena (including consciousness) are the result of material interactions. In other words, matter is the only substance, and reality is identical with the actually occurring states of energy and matter.

“Then came our Quantum theory, which totally transformed our image of matter. The old assumption that the microscopic world of atoms was simply a scaled-down version of the everyday world had to be abandoned. Newton’s deterministic machine was replaced by a shadowy and paradoxical conjunction of waves and particles, governed by the laws of chance,rather than the rigid rules of causality. An extension of the quantum theory goes beyond even this; it paints a picture in which solid matter dissolves away, to be replaced by weird excitations and vibrations of invisible field energy. Quantum physics undermines materialism because it reveals that matter has far less ‘substance’ than we might believe. But another development goes even further by demolishing Newton’s image of matter as inert lumps. This development is the theory of chaos, which has recently gained widespread attention.”
— Paul Davies and John Gribbin, ‘The Matter Myth’,Chapter 1

“As a man who has devoted his whole life to the most clear headed science, to the study of matter, I can tell you as a result of my research about atoms this much: There is no matter as such. All matter originates and exists only by virtue of a force which brings the particle of an atom to vibration and holds this most minute solar system of the atom together.We must assume behind this force the existence of a conscious and intelligent Mind. This Mind is the matrix of all matter.”
— Max Planck, ‘Das Wesen der Materie’, 1944

Plato, the Sophist: “Some of them drag down everything from heaven and the invisible to earth, actually grasping rocks and trees with their hands; for they lay their hands on all such things and maintain stoutly that that alone exists which can be touched and handled; for they define existence and body, or matter, as identical, and if anyone says that anything else, which has no body, exists, they despise him utterly, and will not listen to any other theory than their own.”
