Another question is: Where is the scientific method and its application. There are the following steps:
Problem(s)/Question(s)
Hypothesis or Hypotheses
Experiment(s)
Data
Conclusion(s)/Inference(s)
Hypotheses can be transformed into theories and theories into laws, after much replication of experimental testing of the hypotheses. We should also remember that the above-indicated steps never at the laboratory bench happen in an orderly fashion.
It's cool to give a superficial yet intellectual tasty lecture on the entropy of consciousness in a Jeremy Rifkin fashion. However, there has to be an in-depth analysis of who has done what and where, with respect to scientific studies on the entropy of consciousness or thermodynamics of the mind or mind energies.
We as humans have to be careful when examining time as a variable. Who's time and what time? Is it the time measured by atomic clocks or the internal clocks governing the multiple cycles of physiological and biological clocks in cells and our bodies?
One of the attributes of science is the questioning and/or rejection of authority. If Neils Bohr did not question and reject the Rutherford and J.J. Thompson models of the atom, using his hypothesis and experimental data we might have not had a Bohr model of the atom nor the birth of quantum mechanics. If Prusiner at the University of California, San Francisco Medical Center did not question the DNA Dogma, using his experimental data on self-replicating proteins, prions, we might still be in the black box on mad cow disease syndrome. In both the quantum theory and prion theory, scientists challenged prevailing theories developed by other scientists who were Nobel Laureates and world authorities in their disciplines.
