Hello Craig.

10 Feb. you cited Dan's:

Agree about Einstein. I don't know if Dan's statement was meant 
to be MOQ-based, i.e: that he thinks that the S/O (mind/matter) 
chasm is bridged by the said equation, but that is not so. It's a 
purely scientific (intellectual) thing, uniting energy and matter (as 
Craig says) which were worlds apart in Newtonian Physics. The 
MOQ does however bridge the S/O chasm in the SOL 
interpretation by relegating S/O the role of its own intellectual 
level, which means that it only exists as an aggregate 
....METAPHYSICALLY seen. At the intellectual level however 
subjective-mind and objective-matter are treated as separate 
entities and the twain shall never meet there. Goodness forbid 
because that is what has created out modern world.

IMO
