Qualia and propositional attitudes
Do qualia factor in how we experience propositional attitudes? Are all propositional attitudes subjective by nature or have some import on meaning, truth, and falsity? What role do beliefs play into the form of a propositional attitude?

Are feelings part of experience? Do they matter? If you believed someone was approaching you to do you harm, would your adrenal glands kick into action?
Yes, and if a lion could speak we would not understand it. This hinges on the notion that rationality is distinct and not continuous over other domains of life, which I disagree with. There is something 'holy' and unique about reason that surmounts these quasi differences in understanding language games and family resemblances as Wittgenstein talked about.
