And also understand that as I mock the grandiosity of that one particular post, I still realize you're a very bright guy and I am watching the Youtube thing with great interest. Since I've always been interested in reality as a very subjective model limited by issues of scale ( the illusion of 'solidity' for example ) and other sensory limitations. I also am interested in the difference been apprehension and comprehension and so am suspicious of intellectually constructed models of 'reality'.
I confess mathematics is a weakspot for me, but I do find mysticism in music theory. But again that is a sensory contruct and as such subjective and very dependant on both my personal hardware and software.
I'll run the Youtube a few times and troll the other posts as I get time.
( and remember, when I liken the ideas that push beyond the mundane to kicking open the Doors of Perception I don't do so to denigrate them. )

Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy
Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
- Ben Franklin
Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
