What you say is true. The big "however" is no human (like me) is logical all of the time nor entirely without ego. :rofl:

Agreed. Can we also make space for a bit of imagination? Yes. Info overload. R-O-C-K-IN-THE-U-S-A! - Faster_smarter_better; condensed books; one-minut...

Okay. The ace is a high card that can also be used as a low card with value of 1.
January 30, 2023 at 03:06
In most Western card games, the numeral 1 is designated ace and marked A accordingly. In games based on the superiority of one rank over another, such...

Yes. What you say is true. My word game here -- not generally valid -- contextualizes stipulating a rule under the super-ordination of an arbitrary go...

Whaddya mean you don't follow? In making my explanation, I hewed to a close replication of your definition of metaphysics. I took in your definition a...

Oh, yeah. The axiomatic, the limit of reasoned argument.

Let me indulge in gross simplification by characterizing materialism as quantitative and idealism as qualitative. Are you saying science is hands-on m...

From your question above I surmise you reject my supposition -- elaborated above in the OP -- that 1D, 2D, 4D and all dimensional expansions not the s...

What do you make of the following interpretation of your above statement: math is the infrastructure of theoretical physics(?) Here's the definition o...
January 26, 2023 at 19:49
Yes. I posted mis-information that claims ontically fractional quarks. Universeness set me straight about that. It's fractional charges attached to qu...
January 26, 2023 at 16:20
Your statement is clarifying. Math takes us on cerebral journeys to higher dimensions. If, as I read your statement, these higher dimensions we peer a...

For clarity, let me extend the quote just a bit, Above I'm trying to ask whether quarks are ontically fractional and, if so, how does a fractional or ...

In the first quoted paragraph, you write about subjective experience with language that assumes it is an existing (therefore real) thing. In the secon...

You've gotten hold of some important ideas here in your OP. I'm much engaged by it. Very interesting and instructive. Here you introduce what looks li...

Your tone in your role as historian of (certain) ideas has importance because in my view you're sounding the imminent death knell of non-physicalist i...
January 07, 2023 at 02:12
You're claiming the objectivism of science does not handicap its examination of subjective mind?
January 07, 2023 at 00:31
I make no commentary upon the accuracy of your reflection. I think your reflection invokes the historian, in spite of your self-perception as non-hist...

This sentence appears to my understanding as a confusion of declaration and question.
