I can't take this "exotic ontology" seriously either. It starts by positing the entire universe as a single, undifferentiated (having no parts whatsoever) "blobject"; then we are "free" to posit anything we want about its supposed "contents." NLT is utterly wiped out, because there is no direct correspondence between the natural system and the cognitive self; for the natural system has no objective qualities at all, merely those posited by the self. In effect, the universe is a tabula rasa on which the cognitive self can write anything it wants. "Blobjectisim" has to be the most subjective and irrational "ontology" and epistemology I've ever seen. It is certainly "unnatural," IMHO FWIW.

LOLOL! And I soooo agree with you, dearest sister in Christ!

There are probably a few Shaman types out there who would prefer to think of the universe this way....

I'll wager they'll have the bit about "scientists climbing the last mountain, and finding the theologians already there" on mental speed-dial, and imagine themselves already atop that mountain.
