George Henry Lewis 'Puzzle Of Emergence'

The Puzzle of Emergence
The puzzle of emergence is a very controversial and complex, scientific puzzle. This concept of emergence has been a baffling topic that has stumped many scientists and philosophers throughout the past centuries. George Henry Lewis was the first theorist to give wisdom to this puzzle in the late 1800s and so have many other theorists after this puzzle was first proposed. The term emergence can be defined differently in both a scientific or philosophical situation. It comes from the Latin verb emergo which means to arise or come up with. There have been many discussions about different varieties of situations where emergence can coincide for example, in cases of mental cause, consciousness with the idea of physicalism,
I agree on some topics that I talked about previously. I think I am for emergence hence it makes sense in a scientific standpoint in a way. Emergentism holds views of the world being composed of certain components of matter and energy. Not all problems concern the mind-body dilemma with emergentism but I agree with weak emergence which is seen in biology, and it is the process where larger things arise through interactions with simpler things which do not display the same assets. As I used an example earlier of the bond that forms between hydrogen and oxygen when water is formed. Both hydrogen and oxygen both have their very own distinct qualities that make them what they are but when the two are attached to one another they form into a new substance that is a combination of the two substances and has its own qualities. This substance of water can be taken apart through different forces and will once again be as if was before it bonded. Another reason why I believe in emergence would be because not everything is physical yet it still exists. I think we as people have souls and consciousness but it is more of a metaphysical entity that cannot be physically attained. Even though that metaphysical entity cannot be physically explained does not mean it does not exist. Also heat is a property that exists and this proves that some metaphysical things cannot be obtained physically. I also believe in the idea of reductionism coming from a scientific standpoint. The basis of reductionism is the deduction of somethings certain properties, or explanations into more simpler properties or explanations. This also can be correlated with how some biological theories are related to one another in the different types of
