Sorry I only got to the part where he says correctly "matter is just data." It's hard to listen to people who have never been there speculating on what you have seen and done. I guess Preston James was right I'm the ultimate insider and to those who are lucky enough to actually be sentient I give you France, In the Footsteps of Otto Rahn:
"You used to be so amused
At Napoleon in rags, and the language that he used
Go to him now, he calls ya, ya can't refuse
When ya ain't got nothin', you got nothin' to lose
You're invisible now, ya got no secrets to conceal..."

It's not a bad discussion, but it falls into the same old contaminated traps and stale, botched observable parameters, where we are this one cosmic unity fiddling our fingers below the feet of a loving and benevolent God, and we are the unquestionable Team Humanity nonsense. Intelligence is not always a good or well-minded form of existence.
What if all you see is the inside looking out prison?
