Yes it does, it exists, it is simply waiting there to be seen - It is not the creation of sight!

That is simply stating that we cannot change the future without doing something, and a decision is not required, simply toss a coin.

Very little of anything here even makes any significant sense and as such it places itself at opposing poles to being interesting. Much is even obviou...

I do n`t consider that a concise definition, even taking it that everybody would comply with it, is of much or any value. The places of thinking invol...

Mental states has n`t even got anything to do with determinism. Such ridiculous threads attract intellects, sure, but they are also surely all fools. ...

It`s only a problem for those bent on making it so, the rest of us possess full real world understanding. The above is just a fanciful ride nowhere.
February 08, 2018 at 01:45
You are the genuine article, none the less I 100% agree with you. It`s all too easy to miss content, to underestimate just how much ground a simple se...

I`m banned from most other philosophy forums for having the last say on virtually every thread, so for coming up with what the world considered to be ...

Everybody already knows what motivation is, and they merely deploy different words to identify it, who cares, all that matters is that it should be co...

Reward is not only to be associated with competition. There is so much so many of you simply make up?
February 06, 2018 at 17:15
Yes, I`m not aware of a multitude of different worlds when referencing one`s child, parent, and adult. I do n`t tend to more communication than I cons...
February 06, 2018 at 09:11
"Unfair" is also the best reason, and luck reward motivation adds to the already overly self orientated nature of most young people, indeed, most peop...

Dialogue is a method, it`s a method of communication.. It`s the child side of the patient which would require strengthening as their adult tends to fo...

Prejudice creates discrimination, the foundation of prejudicial ignorance is to be discovered with nurturing, where a remaining propensity for wider d...
February 05, 2018 at 11:39
Agree completely, and what better tool than philosophy to remove some of that prejudice around disparity of years in healthy friendships. Forward and ...
February 03, 2018 at 19:23
Totally agree with you, and the majority of us are predominantly media influenced in our thinking regards the real world. In so being we are putting t...
February 03, 2018 at 19:02
Natural philosophers scarcely exist, but they tend to novel thinking, so never deliberately borrowing or stealing thinking from others. Worthwhile phi...

Genes, diet, environment, and past to present time experiences, no more than the interactions of every circumstance come our way upon us. It`s pointle...
January 31, 2018 at 15:36
One could argue that consciousness is material, for it exists in context with a material mind. What significant area of thought is this leading to tho...
January 31, 2018 at 15:31
Easy question? What is real to people is perceptual. Perfect logic only ever exists along side unflawed natural instinct, but since philosophers are s...
January 31, 2018 at 15:19
I think so, I think that far too much is made out of it, and intelligence only comes with luck too. I get on average twenty hits in six months on Yout...
January 31, 2018 at 14:32
Everything exists unperceived, because everything exists very slightly to one side or the other of perception. Easy question so an easy answer for it....
January 31, 2018 at 14:12
So then, under the rules of all of this red tape how much philosophical progression have you made, so far, and believe it or not this discussion in fa...
January 27, 2018 at 10:03
Yes, and all of this influencing is via the spoken word, thus, we can already predict that there shall be influencing through speech, and we can alrea...
January 27, 2018 at 09:37
Those furthest from the instinct tend to the longest argument, because the argument is the very next best thing. Those with least natural ability requ...

Certitude and certainty are not arched enemies, and it`s only an attitude should "Alice" (symbolic Alice) not really be "Alice" (so in the real world)...
January 26, 2018 at 19:04
I think all of this is no more than an attempt of filling in the gaps between the variables of that which exists as a state of mind. I do n`t agree wi...
January 26, 2018 at 18:51
Yes, but should they question those ideas without actually questioning them without a subject change where else can one go?
January 26, 2018 at 18:38
"Only" is overly strong language, a tendency towards being less offended should we respond with our felt valid counter argument is closer to the mark,...
January 26, 2018 at 18:17
Obviously, private includes self, but how can a language, even when translated into our own, speak to a notion, so the notion becomes a person, what d...
January 26, 2018 at 09:54
Much of this area is subjective, but some of this area is objective, that`s my position, to leave alone, broadly speaking. there exist a restricted ri...
January 26, 2018 at 09:05
The question is, "what is nothing?", not what constitutes nothing for various circumstances, that`s a different question, and to ask it one must word ...
January 25, 2018 at 21:42
I make the sum total of what you have said to be about neutral,, which in philosophical terms is zero surely - In a single line then what is your posi...
January 25, 2018 at 21:12
Of course there should not be a legal right not to be offended, as anybody can be offended by anyone at any time over anything, simple. If this is not...
January 25, 2018 at 11:18
It is obviously impossible to be morally wrong over having a panic attack, morals and panic attacks are not related. "Punching the air" is without the...
January 25, 2018 at 11:05
You `re so thick, you do n`t know how panic attacks work, and what do you imagine would be the benefit to me of coming here and making what happened u...

I disagree that contempt is denial of value, for one can hardly hold a whole person in contempt, even should it feel like it at the time. One feels co...

I am banned from most philosophy sites as consequence to being the last person to speak, so coming up with a final answer. Those that run them can app...

It is not libel then is it, so you would n`t require a defense for libel,, only the evidence that it is true. it`s the other six that we might not kno...
January 24, 2018 at 12:59
Once one starts dictating what constitutes logic one is moving away from rather than towards that which constitutes being logical. That which is logic...
January 24, 2018 at 10:35
I do n`t even get why it might be considered that an individual has not got the right not to be offended in the first instance? I get that he might no...
January 24, 2018 at 09:15
Most likely, but as long as we make worthwhile points. I agree with Xander, and right and wrong can be beholden upon which side of the fence one is st...

A private language would be one that cannot be shared with anyone even to begin with.
January 22, 2018 at 22:39
I get it, I think, but it does n`t really amount to anything worth the effort of thinking about, does it? "Speaks to two opposed" or should it be "spe...
January 22, 2018 at 22:29
Nothing does n`t exist in the cosmos because there is such a commodity as a space. It can exist as the mental state of having a blank mind/nothing on ...
January 22, 2018 at 22:15
The simple answer is this, that what is logical to one person may not be to the next, whilst they may both equally be logical thinkers, that logic is ...

I`m finished on that one,
January 22, 2018 at 18:41
It should read "with" an evolving mind in that case, but even then it is not well put, "as" renders the line meaning something totally different, that...
January 22, 2018 at 18:26
I do n`t view life as an evolving mind, what does that even mean? The way in which I view life alters as my mind evolves though, but not necessarily i...
