God enough

We should see the ceaseless creativity of nature as sacred, argues biologist Stuart Kauffman, despite what Richard Dawkins might say.

    Stu Kaufman is an idiot

    I can not believe that anyone takes Stu Kaufman seriously. He throws out the most nebulous thoughts, makes up meaningless words for his empty ideas, and people flock to him like he was some kind of new-age guru. He is interested in important questions- he just is not offering any coherent thoughts about them. Quantum involvement in brain consciousness? How absurd- he should be drummed out of the sciences. If you really want to learn something about the brain and consciousness, read Buszaki: Rhythms of the brain.
