Abstract:

A great number of contemporary & traditional philosophers, used the principle of the “impossibility of the impression of the big things in small places” to prove the immateriality of the soul. Also, they have used this principle for other purposes. These thinkers have not provided an argument to prove this principle. they seem to have taken this principle as a self-evident principle. Today, because of the variety of reasons, including recent scientific advances, especially in two branches of science, biology and physics, the materialists have presented a materialistic explanation about the “process of obtaining perceptions”. If we accept it, it means: the traditional philosophers, because of the lack of advanced knowledge, thought that: “the impression of the Big things in small places” is impossible in the “world of perceptions”, in addition to the “material universe”; But today, scientific researches has clarified that “impossibility of the impression of the Big things in small places in the world of sense perception” not only isn’t impossible, but also quite possible and it is scientifically justifiable. This paper prove that the Materialists’ argument is wrong. We do this by comparing these two principles with together: “impossibility of the impression of the Big things in small places in the world of sense perception” and “materialistic process of obtaining perceptions”; we want to prove that the principle of “impossibility of the impression of the Big things in small places” not only is happened in the real world (material word), but also in the “world of sense perceptions”.
