We are omnivores by nature. Oddly, we lack the equipment like fangs, claws, brute strength but our appendix is a vestigial organ. The only explanation...
Using truth tables we can evaluate any logical statement, including the Curry statement. What do you mean by "simultaneously"? Some propositions are t...
I'm not certain whether we have free will or not but if god is, as the religious claim, about morality then it seems necessary that he grant it to us....
Firstly, there definitely is a requirement that something stay constant to serve as a record-keeper to monitor change and thus allow us to recognize i...
Thanks. Anyway, to get back to where I digressed, I don't think there are such things as defective souls. Are you suggesting that some are just born b...
Don't get me started on scapegoats. I'm not surprised that the only facial hair that suits me is a goatee. I wouldn't do that. Poor guy. He's taking a...
First, duality. Why is it that the concept of duality has emerged in both Eastern and Western thought? Daoism has yin-yang, Buddhism has the middle-pa...
It's a very convenient setup (for god). All the good there is in the world is part of god's plan and all the bad that there is is our fault inspite of...
The sentence can be either true or false. If it's false then it's antecedent is false and that means the entire sentence evaluates to true. If it is t...
I think we need to really consider the matter of prophecies, especially their fulfillment, very seriously. If a given prophecy, be it christianity or ...
I haven't read many books so you might want to take this with a pinch of salt. All books on human history has one word that is, for certain, common am...
There's a paradox here. Set aside all the politics that has now suffused the middle-east with people dying on both sides of the dividing line and cons...
Well, I humbly beg to disagree. Paradoxes usually aren't trivial since they indicate something unsolvable or unexpected; paradoxes reveal either error...
Agreed, using the implication equivalence. However this doesn't refute the argument because... ~P1 v P2 := P1. Assuming P1 means ~~P1. and so we get P...
Sound advice if you ask me. BTW I just realized the image you posted is double negation - rejecting or negating all the nos on ths sign - which comes ...
I agree. Got carried away a bit there. Yet, there must be something truly special about being able to negate, reject, deny, say "no" to something as p...
If you go by the lexical definition then art is intimately linked to beauty/aesthetics. There are many art forms but they must all be aesthetically en...
Curry's paradox begins as an assumption of the equivalence between the sentence P1: if this sentence is true then P2 which in logic is the following: ...
I did mention in a clear unambiguous way that negation taken as rejection involves a serious risk to life and limb if we ever reach a point where we r...
Negation, in its broadest, most magnificent form, is simply the act of rejection. Negation is to reject, to disagree, to say "no", and given that to a...
I disagree with your claim that if hedonism is true, morality is meaningless. Let's begin with religions; humanity's earliest experiment with morality...
It seems the good you're concerned about doesn't have anything to do with morality. You describe the good as a fulfillment. Nevertheless, the moral go...
Well, the videos I posted suggests that happiness and goodness aren't the same thing. This, in my humble opinion, is what's been, is and will be human...
In my humble opinion near-perfect simulation is already a reality. Cortical Homunculus https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cortical_homunculus#/media/File...
Just check the math. In the 1st step the 1st ball is removed but there are more than 1 ball. In the 2nd step the 2nd ball is removed but there are mor...
Linguistic turn? Perhaps I misunderstood. Sorry. Well reminds me of driving. When traffic is flowing smoothly we're completely unconscious of the act ...
