Welcome to Crimetown, a series produced by Marc Smerling and Zac Stuart-Pontier in partnership with Gimlet Media. Each season, we investigate the culture of crime in a different city. In Season 2, Crimetown heads to the heart of the Rust Belt: Detroit, Michigan. From its heyday as Motor City to its rebirth as the Brooklyn of the Midwest, Detroit’s history reflects a series of issues that strike at the heart of American identity: race, poverty, policing, loss of industry, the war on drugs, an ...

Consciousness may stem from unseen dimensions beyond our reality
Earth.com, By Eric Ralls, on September 21, 2024
https://www.earth.com/news/consciousness-may-stem-from-unseen-dimensions-beyond-our-reality/
The conversation delves into a discussion of Dr. Michael Priva’s hypothesis that extra dimensions, beyond the known four of spacetime, might help explain human consciousness. Priva draws from string theory, which posits up to 11 dimensions, and extends this to suggest that Jesus may be a hyperdimensional being capable of ascending to heaven—a claim deeply rooted in his Christian beliefs. The hosts challenge the logical leaps, highlighting his lack of expertise in consciousness studies, the speculative nature of his ideas, and the conflation of theoretical physics with religious concepts. They humorously critique the argument as rife with logical fallacies, such as appeals to authority and non sequiturs, while also considering the broader issue of religion using misunderstood science to justify its claims. The show wraps up with the hosts asserting that consciousness is likely an emergent property of brain function, rather than something requiring exotic explanations like extra dimensions, emphasizing the necessity of evidence and logical coherence in scientific discussion.
The Non-Prophets, Episode 23.40.4 featuring Infidel64, Jonathan Roudabush, and Eli Slack
