Why do you ask, if you are not responding to replies? I have sent you my reply almost a week ago ... (https://thephilosophyforum.com/discussion/commen...
Re "hard determinism does not make ethics irrelevant": "hard determinism", by definition, is incompatible with free will. Changing that, tying to "swe...
I see. Stop reproducing ... But there will always be rich people who could find means to make people reproduce and governments who could force people ...
"Antisocial" is someone who is against the laws and/or customs of a society and also who is considered an annoyance to and is disapproved by the socie...
You have mentioned at least 3 frameworks in which the subject of "soul" is studies and treated: religion, philosophy and existential psychology. In ea...
In what way then? :brow: Aha! Didn't see that coming! I thought that yourself believed in the deacy of science! OK then, let others believe that! :smi...
Why is vision the strongest sense? I have not that kind of knowledge but I guess that the human body structure is such that it relies basically on vis...
Imagining is a kind of thinking and thoughts are mainly mental images. That's why your vision is the strongest sense. Your other senses may be present...
Thanks. It's good to have an audience. Even of a single person! But ... what about subjectively? It wasn't as good? :smile: Certainly. The word "real"...
I don't think that there's such a thing as an "anti-scientific movement". If you can provide some references ... Likewise about "anti-scientific senti...
Well, a statement is a definite or clear expression of something. And this is too general. So a complete sentence that expresses something may qualify...
Good point. I assume you mean that these are "thigns" and "true" or "false" cannot be applied to them. Right, @TiredThinker made a mistake in not spec...
Interesting. Can you give a practical example of that? (I read about contradictions in your description but could not actually find any paradoxicality...
Right. This statement applies to a fact as I myself indicated. But @TiredThinker has not cleeared this up. He referred to "things" in general. Which i...
First of all, I believe you should specify what "things" you are talking about. Because "apples" are "things" and "true" or "false" cannot be applied ...
Good point. BTW, your question "Do Brussels sprouts taste good?" calls for a "Yes or no" answer. "True or false?" is asked on statements, not question...
Thanks. I'm always glad and encouraged to see people in this place with views diverging from the well established path! :smile: BTW, Buddhism is consi...
Since you talk about "comfortability", the people in the cave most probably felt "comfortable" too, since they didn't know another world, neither was ...
You have replied to me that your topic was a kind of answer to @TheMadFool about undestanding. This didn't change at all my wondering of how has the s...
(BTW, You might want to correct "irregardless" to "regardless".) First of all, I will define "reality" as it is commonly used, so that I can comment o...
I read this of course. But it's still about undestanding ... and my wondering is still unanswered! :grin: Well, in that case, even if you had used a m...
I have been a professional translator (freelance) for the same amount of years! However, I never thought of my job as something that is all about unde...
If it were a honest response I would just say "OK" (two letters). But it wasn't. Besides, according to your spirit of communication, since you didn't ...
Just "Thank you for your response" suffices. It only takes a couple of seconds of your time, which I believe are well spent, because you show that you...

Sorry! I din't mean to offend you! Written messages sometimes do not show the writer's intention! What I wrote in the second para was a realization I ...
Please, don't geive me homework to do! :grin: I don't have that much spare time! (But I will note down these refs for the future.) Well, there's much ...
Dear @TheMadFool, you are asking me to teach you in here a subject that takes months to learn! Besides, I have already told you quite a few things tha...
OK, we both believe that each is not reading or undestanding of what the other says. So, here's something more general and simple: It is very evident ...
I thought I have already cleared that there;s no such thing as "true AI". Do you actually read my comments? I'm sorry to ask that, but your above stat...
None taken. I wonder why you don't find the question "Does thinking take place in the human brain?" straight ... There are 3 words/phrases that could ...
I don't use this expression. I normally specify "Descartes' dualism", because "mind-body dualism" is attributed to various philosophers since ancient ...
I certainly agree with this! Welcome to the club! I feel better "hearing" such things, not so much because they are congruent with my views, but mainl...
All that is unnecessarily too complicated! You could just answer, "Indeed, they are conflicting statements." And make some correction or something. An...
But I don't have to see anything ... I already know! :smile: Aren't these conflicting statements? You say "yes" (i.e. thinking takes place in the huma...
Sounds nice, but in what form does this intelligence exist? I would prefer, of course, "consciousness is everywhere" instead! :smile: I don't undestan...
1) There is no can be such a thing as a "true AI". All AIs are true. AI refers to systems or machines that mimic human intelligence to perform tasks a...
Maybe true for those who defend themselves. Not for the attacker, whose purpose is only to dominate, exploit, get profit, and so on. BTW, there's no s...
Certainly, if it is done with the purpose of having fun! But we don't know that. We actually don't know under what circumstances (decisions, condition...
