Regarding whether this site should grow, of course! It is far from unwieldy at the moment, and I look suspiciously upon any suggestion that it remain ...

Your post indicates he was technically found innocent, although that was not my understanding of the articles I read. The matter was civil, not crimin...

If we're simply saying that the mind includes activity outside the brain but we admit that the extra-brain activity is non-cognitive, then the thesis ...
October 26, 2015 at 00:25
My general reaction to the paper was that I didn't see why one must commit to the idea that cognition occurred outside the mind simply because a probl...

Where are you going to shop now?
October 24, 2015 at 14:58
We might have to think they're real not to be worried, but they don't have to be real for us to worry about them, which means there might not be anyth...

Why can't you be worried about an unreal threat, like when you're afraid of something that really will never happen, like being afraid a bear is going...

My suggestion:

You have a lot of quit in you. No, this is not a protest site. It's not a temporary port in the storm. It's not a cheap imitation. It's not the junior...

It didn't take Porat to force me into your warm embrace.
October 24, 2015 at 01:30
Most times I can't recall my dreams, meaning that I'm not even an expert of my own imagination. Other times my dreams have been crushed, which has not...

It suggests only that it's impossible to talk about things that have no correlation to a previous experience of a mind independent thing. That is, I c...

I downloaded it and will read it tonight.
October 23, 2015 at 22:27
Xyzjoel wasn't mentioned.
October 23, 2015 at 22:26
Rumor has it that TGW is here by another name.
October 23, 2015 at 22:21
I PM'd him and it indicates it was read, but I've not seen him here or there.
October 23, 2015 at 21:02
The quickest way is just to make a new post so everyone can see it. The shout box also works. There's this program called Tor that might be helpful.
October 23, 2015 at 20:57
Some of those mentioned would pop in and out, so they may not even know anything has changed.
October 23, 2015 at 20:54
What about Maia and Jessica17 or whatever her name was?
October 23, 2015 at 20:53
So who are we missing over here among the regulars? The only one I can think of is Banno, but maybe there's someone else I've forgotten.
October 23, 2015 at 19:53
So very glad you're here.
October 23, 2015 at 17:23
I'm confused by your post. Are you saying Paul sold something else?
October 23, 2015 at 15:18
Also, just to clarify, the book is about how the Jewish Orthodox community characterizes its own history within the realm of Judaism, not how it attem...
October 23, 2015 at 12:27
Don't eh me, you Canadian.
October 23, 2015 at 03:30
I'm currently reading "Changing the Immutable: How Orthodox Judaism Rewrites Its History," which is really on point to this question. It distinguishes...

We're in a heated battle for most likes, so I played the odds and criticized Rand.
October 23, 2015 at 01:43
He didn't make diddly squat for 12 years of work.
October 23, 2015 at 01:18
I am encouraged by the folly of our competitor.
October 23, 2015 at 01:08
The Rand analysis is nonsense. An entrepreneur bought a site and alienated some of his core customers. They left and started their own competing busin...
October 23, 2015 at 01:01
My post "New Owners" was deleted by SuperAdmin for low post quality. Interesting how no other admin felt that way prior to SuperAdmin. Paul never dele...
October 23, 2015 at 00:52
Great idea Tiff! I say run with it, but I'm not in charge.
October 22, 2015 at 23:35
I was thinking the exact thing. I even googled the question, and it gave some ideas. It would seem that if you Google "philosophy," you'd want the nam...
October 22, 2015 at 23:27
So, if you've seen there's a welcome from the new owners posted on PF. Paul is an admin. One of the new owners (Nik) explains he has an undergraduate ...

Which is to ignore my post and the question of the OP entirely, which is how to handle the crisis. So, let us tell the Dutch that there is a critical ...

Immigration is always a scary proposition because it upsets the democratic balance, especially when the immigrants have differing ideologies. The resp...
October 22, 2015 at 18:21
I sent Banno a PM to come on over. I didn't put an @ sign on it or a hash tag, so it may not work. I think if I hit Ctrl-X on his avatar over there an...
October 22, 2015 at 17:26
Oh, yeah, sorry @baden
October 22, 2015 at 15:19
Doesn't it still pop up under "mentions" even without the @ symbol? When do I use a hashtag? I've heard tale of them, but when I was growing up we jus...
October 22, 2015 at 15:18
It is my humility and self-deprecating sense of humor that endears me to my inferiors. As a result, I post occasional comments like the one above, onl...
October 22, 2015 at 15:11
I'm here for the piss and vinegar. Also, I'm here for Baden, especially with his new avatar. It sort of gets me going.
October 22, 2015 at 15:05
You're an admin over there. Why don't you just unban everyone and let the inmates run free? I didn't leave because of the fear of advertisements. I le...

I'm definitely in favor of some sort of plan where we can donate, preferably with a set annual fee (or at least a suggested donation) based upon what ...
October 22, 2015 at 13:38
Yes, this is the real party. Tell all your friends and get everyone over here!
October 21, 2015 at 21:03
The "comments" shows my comments and not the comments others have made to my comments. I do like having a quick listing of everything I have previosly...
October 21, 2015 at 20:52
Your obsession is philosophy forums generally, finding time to post at PF1, PF2, and PF temporary. My obsession, though, is dudes who portray themselv...

Actually, Miss Georgia won. So, in your face everyone other than Georgia!

I will write a Constitution for you guys. I'm abreast on the natural rights each of us were endowed by my Creator (not yours, you're godless). I can p...

I have a "I Miss W" sticker on my car. I have it just to be endearing. Working?
October 21, 2015 at 18:47
Time spent collecting Hanover trinkets is time well spent as is time spent talking about ME.
