@SamHarrisOrg This speaks for the genetics. I'd have to work a lot to understand mathematics. Haven't done that..and won't probably do that.

@EarthenBlueSky7@SamHarrisOrg Zero to do with genetics. Everything to do with *interest*. Inability to explain *how* u know, no big deal. -
@ToKTeacher Still genetics. Interest = dopamine response to specific stimuli. Reward for learning specific subject differs btn individuals. -
@AffablePsycho We don't know relationships between dopamine and "interest" to that fidelity. What people do, due to choice. Not chemicals. -
@ToKTeacher (6) Perceptualpsychology, physics, & chaos math all seem to suggest at least soft determinism, if not hard. -
.
@AffablePsycho Yep. *Everything* is determined. Always. Multiverse obeys deterministic laws of physics. Doesn't eliminate real choices.

@SamHarrisOrg I feel it's written appealing towards a mystic sensibility. Maths is used to model the real world, it cannot overpower it.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@SamHarrisOrg Ramanujan may have been a genius, but this writer sems a hippy veering toward mumbo-jumbo. -
@DES_Toronto This is what happens when ppl don't understand the classic Tamil literat./interpretation on the concept of God.@SamHarrisOrg
