CONTESTED AXIOMS: PROSECUTION PRIORITIES
Which axioms will face the strongest challenges and need the best defense?
CONTESTATION TIERS
TIER 1: CRITICAL (Will Be Attacked Hardest)
These axioms make claims that directly challenge materialist, atheist, or pluralist worldviews. They will receive the most aggressive pushback and need iron-clad defense.
| Axiom | Claim | Challenger | Defeat Condition | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BC7.1 | Terminal Observer (Φ=∞) exists | Atheists, Materialists | Solve von Neumann chain without terminal observer | ✅ PROSECUTED |
| T9.1 | Grace necessity (external operator required) | Other religions, Self-help | Show alternative source of sign-flip | ✅ PROSECUTED |
| L8.1 | Self-flip impossibility | Works-salvation religions | Demonstrate self-directed sign flip | ✅ PROSECUTED |
| A5.1 | Observer required for actualization | Physicalists | Show actualization without observer | ✅ PROSECUTED |
| D2.1 | Logos Field χ is fundamental substrate | Materialists | Provide alternative self-grounding substrate | ✅ PROSECUTED |
| T8.1 | Sign conservation (moral physics) | Moral relativists | Show eigenvalue flip under unitary evolution | ✅ PROSECUTED |
TIER 2: HIGH CONTESTATION
These axioms have strong support in physics/philosophy but face minority opposition or require careful argumentation.
| Axiom | Claim | Challenger | Defeat Condition | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A1.3 | Information is ontologically primary | Substance materialists | Derive information from non-information | ✅ PROSECUTED |
| A2.2 | Fundamental substrate must be self-grounding | Infinite regress advocates | Show substrate grounds without self-reference | ✅ PROSECUTED |
| AX-018 | Trinitarian structure (3 roles) | Unitarians, Muslims | Mathematical necessity of 3-role decomposition | ✅ PROSECUTED |
| AX-123 | Sin maps to decoherence | Secular moralists | Invalid cross-domain mapping | ✅ PROSECUTED |
| A10.2 | Soul conservation | Physicalists | Show identity terminates at death | ✅ PROSECUTED |
| R16.1 | Christianity uniquely satisfies BCs | Other religions | Find another system satisfying 8/8 BCs | ✅ PROSECUTED |
TIER 3: MEDIUM CONTESTATION
These axioms are more defensible but still require solid argumentation.
| Axiom | Claim | Challenger | Defeat Condition | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A2.1 | Information requires substrate | Pure Platonists | Show information without any carrier | LOW PRIORITY |
| A1.2 | Existence requires distinguishability | Mystical monists | Show undifferentiated being | PROSECUTED |
| A3.1 | Order is fundamental | Chaos advocates | Derive order from pure randomness | LOW PRIORITY |
| HM.1 | Humans carry moral sign | Amoralists | Show humans have no orientation | LOW PRIORITY |
TIER 4: LOW CONTESTATION (Nearly Self-Evident)
| Axiom | Claim | Status |
|---|---|---|
| A1.1 | Something exists | Self-refuting to deny |
| A4.1 | Parsimony | Standard epistemology |
| BC8 | Voluntary coupling | Free will preservation |
PROSECUTION PRIORITIES
URGENT - Need Full Defense Documents
-
BC7.1 Terminal Observer
- This is the God-exists axiom
- Must address: Many-Worlds, decoherence interpretation, Qbism
- Evidence: Von Neumann chain analysis, Wigner’s friend, infinite regress
-
A5.1 Observer Required
- Consciousness role in physics
- Must address: Environmental decoherence, objective collapse models
- Evidence: Delayed choice, quantum eraser, PEAR Lab data
-
D2.1 Logos Field
- The χ-field itself
- Must address: “You invented this”
- Evidence: Information physics, digital physics, holographic principle
-
T8.1 Sign Conservation
- Moral physics is real
- Must address: Is-ought problem, moral relativism
- Evidence: Spectral theorem, Hermitian operator mathematics
-
AX-018 Trinitarian Structure
- Why three roles?
- Must address: “Chosen to match theology”
- Evidence: Generator-Order-Actualizer necessity, minimal basis theorem
-
R16.1 Christianity Uniqueness
- Only one satisfies all BCs
- Must address: Every other religion’s counter-claims
- Evidence: Systematic BC-by-BC comparison
DEFENSE STRATEGY BY ATTACK VECTOR
Attack: “This is just theology dressed up as physics”
Defense:
- Show derivation chain from A1.1 → T9.1 without assuming conclusion
- Highlight predictions that differ from theology-first approaches
- Present falsification conditions for each step
- Point to physical evidence at each link
Attack: “Consciousness doesn’t cause collapse”
Defense:
- Von Neumann chain requires termination
- Environmental decoherence doesn’t solve the problem (just pushes it)
- Objective collapse models have no experimental support
- Observer-dependent results (delayed choice, quantum eraser) require explanation
Attack: “Other religions have grace too”
Defense:
- Define grace operationally: external, non-earned, sign-flipping, non-unitary
- Test each religion against L8.1
- Show where each fails the boundary conditions
- Not about which religion is “nicest” but which satisfies the constraints
Attack: “Morality isn’t physics”
Defense:
- If sign is conserved (T8.1), it’s physical
- Spectral theorem gives eigenvalues ±1
- Observable effects of sign orientation
- Cross-domain mapping is legitimate if predictions match
Attack: “You can’t prove God exists”
Defense:
- The chain doesn’t “prove” God in the theistic arguments sense
- It shows: IF reality exists → THEN terminal observer required
- Defeat condition is clear: solve the chain another way
- Burden shifts to challenger to provide alternative closure
