Syamsu,
I suggest to use the common methods of daily life by which we determine something acts forced or freely. In which case physical laws are non-free. They act in the same way every time, which is consistent with non-freedom, not freedom. Mark There are 10 kinds of people in this world; those that understand binary, & those that don't

Syamsu,
"In taking into account the retarded gravitational potential in the Newtonian equation, the equation of general relativity is obtained in introducing anticipative propagation of the gravitational field. The anticipation is stronger than for the electromagnetic field, because it is dependent not only on the velocity but also on the acceleration." (Anticipative effect in relativistic physical systems, exemplified by the perihelion of the Mercury planet, Daniel M. DUBOIS, Centre for Hyperincursion and Anticipation in Ordered Systems)
Please elaborate on exactly what is going on here. How does this system not follow physical laws & therefore behave in a constrictive & totally non-freedom way? Mark There are 10 kinds of people in this world; those that understand binary, & those that don't

Syamsu,
It seems to me the instantaneous propagation requires decisions. 1/ What do you mean by instantaneous propagation?2/ Where does this appear in the orbit of mercury which has had its orbit predicted? Mark There are 10 kinds of people in this world; those that understand binary, & those that don't

Syamsu,
You said:
syamsu writes: It seems to me the instantaneous propagation requires decisions But when I ask what an "instantaneous propagation" is, you said:
syamsu writes: Meaning the decision is instantaneous over the distance, but the transfer of energy limited by the speed of light That's circular reasoning. You have to assume your conclusion in order to accept your premises. Of course "instantaneous propagation" requires decisions in your view, you have defined it as requiring decisions. So, what you need to demonstrate is whether the orbit of Mercury displays "instantaneous propagation". Is this testable?
The peculiar perihilion of mercury is described by general relativity before. Exactly, it follows known laws of physics, it "appears" to be constrained by them, it doesn't do anything but obey those laws. How can you possibly claim decisions are being made that infer freedom when exactly the opposite of freedom is evident?

Syamsu,
I asked;
mark writes: So, what you need to demonstrate is whether the orbit of Mercury displays "instantaneous propagation". Is this testable? You replied:
It logically follows that motion is useless as a measure of time for instantaneous action ove a distance, leaving decision which logically works. Motion isn't a measure of time for instantaneous action anyway, so I have no idea what you're talking about. Please answer the question.

Syamsu,
Obviously it is testable, but it's not neccessarily the case that it would lead to a different result as GR. So how is it testable?
So throwing heads or tails probalisticly leads to 50/50 observation of heads or tails, the observer being the scientist, but in anticapatory terms the coin flipping system observes itself, it decides it's own state, but the result is basically the same. So how is it testable? As far as I can see you are proposing something that is exactly the same as existing physical laws.

Syamsu,
It is testable if or not the planet behaves the same way as light, particle wave duality etc. It doesn't as far as I know. So way back in message 65 when Straggler (I think) asked how gravity could be anticipatory & you threw out Mercury's orbit as an example, it turns out not to be? You could have saved us a lot of time by admitting you didn't know Mark There are 10 kinds of people in this world; those that understand binary, & those that don't

Syamsu,
As far as I know in standard quantum theory the decision is with the observer (or actually the issue of decisionmaking is fudged with the scientist as an observer, as explained before 50/50 uncertainty of the scientist, instead of indeterminacy of the system itself), and therefore there is no indeterminacy in quantum theory. The observer does not make a decision, though. Obvious really. You haven't really thought this through, have you?

But the observer isn't making a decision. Mark There are 10 kinds of people in this world; those that understand binary, & those that don't

Syamsu,
The observer is most definitely making a decision. An observation, and measurement device doesnt work, but a deciding device does work. The observer is not making a decision about the state of the object under observation. Anything else is irrelevant.

Syamsu,
As said before in quantum theory the issue of freedom is fudged with the observer. NO, IT ISN'T. THE OBSERVER DOES NOT MAKE ANY CHOICE AS TO THE STATE OF THE OBJECT UNDER OBSERVATION. IGNORING MY POSTS WON'T MAKE THIS NOT TRUE.
Its simply not the case that scientists generally support freedom, or unpredictability as you say. Yes it is. Mark There are 10 kinds of people in this world; those that understand binary, & those that don't
