About Existential Rationalism: Handling Hume's Fork
The free world has forgotten what it means to be rational—an observation corroborated by the irrational belief in the promise of quantum computers. They are supposedly “operated by pure observation,” which is a contradiction, so a falsehood.The root cause for the contemporary irrationality is incorrect dualistic metaphysics, centered around reality.Existential Rationalism solves this problem by reconciling Western philosophy with rational Zen metaphysics.The quantum computer misconception reminds us that metaphysics, the first philosophy, is still the first science. Why did we forget this? Because David Hume’s centuries-old challenge to reason made philosophy look like a frivolous word game. Empirical science has indeed changed the world, but Hume’s skepticism also permits claims of objective knowledge propped by deficient peer reviews and citations.Existential Rationalism unmasks the Western belief in a knowable reality as a compelling illusion produced precisely by our desire to transcend. As a remedy, it dusts off the principles of rational thought as still our best bet to understand and predict the world, notwithstanding the importance of experimental verification.The implications reach well beyond the holy grail of quantum computers, from the broader philosophy of science to the unconscious-mind concept in psychology. Unlock your mind with a challenging yet accessible, well-researched, disruptive exploration that reveals the magnificent forest of existence for some deceptively obvious trees.“I am a firm believer that great things happen when different practices and schools of thought converge to create something new. Arts and hard sciences are often pitted against each other as contradictory and opposite ends of our spectrum of knowledge. This book is a wonderful example of how philosophy and science can be integrated to deepen our understanding of both. […] Kudos to the author for this inspiring contribution to the world!” —Amazon customer
