Hanover

We both know what each other are talking about.

How did the planets move before Adam looked up and saw it go from evening to the morning?

Prior to language, was there physics?

Anyone ever try this? /uploads/resized/files/wm/u31qcea6pt7qxral.jpg Sort of a liquorice herbal flavor with hints of Nyquil.

But this ignores my disambiguation. The constitution of the pen is disputed, not the appearance. If by "red pen" you mean to define a pen as comprised...

If "the pen is red" means the pen looks red to me, I agree with that. If "the pen is red" means the pen contains redness, I don't.

No, that is our disagreement. We agree we perceive the pen as red. Maybe you think the pen is actually red, but I don't. We agree the pin causes us to...

There is no external red. At best, there is an external object that elicits a phenomenal state of red. Just like pain. There is no external pain. At b...

And I think I'm guessing I'm like you, which is that if I walk in drenched, with an angry look on my face, and with a broken umbrella, you recognize I...

How do you know how I experience? I'm telling you there are plenty of experiences I have that language plays no role in. How do you know that to be fa...

I suppose a point could be made that without an external example, we wouldn't be able to know we're using the term "red" consistently over time (and t...

They are protesting capitalism. They are communist pigs.

Your question was, as I understood it, that you get how we can doubt the redness of the ball is part of the ball but we can't doubt the roundness is p...

I make oatmeal (I think the Brits call it gruel) in the microwave and put a paper towel over it as it turns in circles to perfection. The oatmeal spla...

That only points to the consistency among human beings when it comes to detecting gross properties of shape, but subjective consistency doesn't sugges...

I was thinking more along the lines that I was describing Kant's transcendental idealism, which, per Google's AI function "is a philosophical position...

I'm saying if a tree exists I have no idea what a tree is. A "tree" is noumenal the way you're using it and it's greenness is phenomenal. When you spe...

Pain is a mental precept. I'm just not buying into Lockean primary and secondary qualities where some qualities are deemed mind created and others inh...

This has nothing to do with public and private. It has to do with a category mistake you're making. We convey matter to our senses in different ways. ...

Now that we're talking philosophy and not strictly science, I'll re-enter: I don't think you can consistently hold 1 and 4 without adopting a non-empr...

Fair enough, but that sound less like philosophy and more just basic neuroscience and physics. I trust science as well for daily living, but I don't t...

What I'm saying is that all that you know is mediated by the mind. There is no science that suggests otherwise. What that means is that you cannot tru...

It's been 12 minutes for God's sake. How much time do you need?

What can you possibly know about an atom other than your perception of it? If the redness is in my head and not the chair, why don't I say that about ...

In other news, if you put a capital Y in parenthesis, you'll create the thumbs up symbol. I learned that in the post above, so I had to insert a space...

I think all we can say is that when we have the perception of X and we perceive ourselves doing Y and we then experience Z that we can say Z follows f...

How do we perceive this propensity? Do we just assume our perceptions are externally caused? Since all perceptions are subjective responses, you can't...

A common dining experience might consist of a peanut butter and blueberry jelly sandwich, but the chefs at Hanover's Bistro on Main have an experiment...

Prince's solo at the end of this is conclusive proof for the existence of God. https://youtu.be/6SFNW5F8K9Y?si=tscd_GWdZ-PjCVtk

I should be able to locate that place near you from the info @"Jamal" previously provided regarding your whereabouts.

I think that true too. Why feel like slob when rice taste good? Good rice make slob and not slob happy.

I make a thin soup from the water used to rinse my rice and I feed it to my workers for lunch during their 5 minute break. Their poverty saddens me, m...

I had some Chinese friends and the guy commented to his wife that what I was serving was rice because he thought she might not recognize what I create...

But doesn't this just raise the age old problem associated with Locke's primary and secondary properties distintiction? You've identified pain and col...

Referring to trees as "it" dehumanizes them. It's just more close minded anthropocentristic bullshit.

Will do. Expect to see a video of me speaking to all of my animals here in the near future.

What is interesting is that non-anthropocentrist religions end up centering humans in the universe because the true central being (God) has given them...

I'd say not in certain religious contexts where anthropomorphism often arises, where the human attributions are considered metaphorical only to provid...

Wouldn't the correct objection be anthropocentrism as opposed to anthropomorphism? The former referencing the attribution of human characteristics to ...

But what is a book but words and what are words but communication and what is communication other than information? How is it meaningfully different t...

Uncle Sam Walton

Not to brag, but I got accepted into Sam's Club today.

You describe environment X that interacts with perceiver Y and the perceiver has the subjective state of seeing red. Without Y, what can be said of X?...

If you can be assured there is radiation, why can't you be sure there's red?

Broom closet. Downright stagnant. Second place is the cupboard. Cat loves the place. Seems boring to me, but to each his own.
