Hassan is not receptive to Prof Jiang's clever thought experiments. Dialectic Materialism is too dogmatic. PROF JIANG'S reasoning requires some degree of disbelief in order to make sense. Speculation is the path through which to discover unexpected connections.

I'm surprised Prof Jiang didn't bring up Plato's Allegory of The Cave. It would have contextualized his speculations.
