== <span style="color: #FFFFFF;">Remembering</span> == * '''Epistemology''' β (See Article 111). The "Philosophy" of "Knowledge" and its "Limits." * '''GΓΆdelβs Incompleteness Theorems''' β Two "Mathematical Proofs" that show that in any "Logical System" (like 'Arithmetic'), there will be "True Statements" that "Cannot be Proven" within that system. * '''Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle''' β (See Article 121). The "Physical Law" that says you "Cannot Know" both the "Position" and the "Velocity" of a particle "Perfectly" at the same time. * '''The Cosmic Horizon''' β The "Limit" of the "Observable Universe": because the "Universe is Expanding," there is "Light" from "Distant Stars" that will "Never Reach Us." * '''Entropic Limit''' β The "Idea" that "Information" is "Lost" over time due to "Chaos" and "Entropy," making the "Past" "Un-recoverable." * '''The Hard Problem of Consciousness''' β (See Article 130). The "Limit" of "Science": we can explain the "Brain," but we "Don't Know" if we can ever explain the "Feeling" of "Being Alive." * '''Cognitive Closure''' (McGinn) β The theory that "Human Brains" are "Biological Organs" with "Limits," and some "Truths" of the universe may be "Too Big" for us to "Understand." * '''Chaos Theory''' β (See Article 578). The "Limit" of "Prediction": "Small Changes" make "Long-Term Prediction" of complex systems (like 'The Weather') "Mathematically Impossible." * '''The Turing Limit''' β (See Article 156). The "Limit" of "Computation": there are "Mathematical Problems" (like the 'Halting Problem') that "No Computer" can ever solve. * '''Pluralism of Truth''' β The "Idea" that there are "Different ways of knowing" (Science, Art, Faith) that "Cannot be Unified" into one. </div> <div style="background-color: #006400; color: #FFFFFF; padding: 20px; border-radius: 8px; margin-bottom: 15px;">
