Yeah, absolutely. I definitely want to know about Hegel and his influence (and his actual, rather htan interpreted, response to Kant). It just always ...

I gave up after ep. 08. I do not think I enjoy anything Hegel has to say 0 but ill still read Phenomenology and Logic.

Yeah, but you've totally avoided ever (I mean, over multiple threads now) letting us know what your formulation for objective morality is. What's it g...

I have been over this many times in this thread, But i do not think this is accurate at all, and many atheist institutions reject that formulation. Ha...

Agreed, but it would certainly put in question some of his swing-voters who might return to Patriotism™ as their guiding light

Ok, fair enough. I would then assume this: Is a fair, if rough-and-ready, way to say that I can't really disagree, but i see the degree of mediation(p...

I literally quoted your assertion that Happiness is evidence for Morality. That is a relationship. I asked you to express how you're actually making t...

Very much disagree with this(other than the bolded) but I thin its possible terms are getting muddled. So, up top let me say the "object" is two thing...

I didn't even mention that process, and in any case its your brain. I don't think this discussion is to go anywhere worth going. :smirk:

Appreciate you continuing to engage - It's a weird position, I know. This seems bizarre and untrue to me. It experiences the water it swims in, along ...

Not the point. I don't feel that's the case at all. Logic is discovered fact of our world/universe/whatever you want to call it. We didn't event logic...

No, and no - that's a perplexing and genuinely odd response. I can't see how either of these questions have anything to do with what i'm positing. Hav...

Not to humans, for whom the distinction is somewhat useless :P

No. This is a completely incoherent sentence/claim. The opinion is whether or not I want to use logic. Logic, is not an opinion. That's a really, real...

I don’t see how. The appearances are what you’re talking about

An objection is just how philosophers discuss ideas. It's not a competition or anything. Its just a term used for when you 'push back' on a theory or ...

Thank you; good objections. I don't think 'precognitively' is accurate. We aren't affected by anything but sensation. The sensation is not the things ...

This doesn't...really... seem to be the case to me, though I understand this fairly well-worn objection (Godel and all). Logic, being (in the context ...

Hi Beverley :) Thanks a lot for this exchange. (underlined is my edit) And i have disagreed, in the form of the below response.. These simply don't fo...

They do not rely on empirical considerations, which at the very least, removes the problem of my own judgement mattering. I guess I could still be wor...

Here i'm using 'internal' to mean "confined to mentation" I guess. I personally take there be an external world. I wasn't meant to be an actual descri...

Correct. Unsure that it follows that communication is impossible. Its imprecise, for sure. Yep. And our efforts in communication are to minimize the m...

Weird - this was a post in response to Leontiskos which he has quoted below. I have no idea how i mucked up bad enough to delete it, but there we are.

I simply don't see how this is the case, unless you are restricting this claim to sensible 'idea's. The 'external world' hypothesis, in any reasonable...

It comes from The Doors Of Perception and Heaven and Hell (one book, two essays) but its essentially trip reports from a Mescaline experience or two. ...

Per DeepAI" "The Philosophy Forum is an online community where people can engage in discussions and debates on various philosophical topics. It provid...

My conception of it is derived from a Huxleyean type of idea of brain-as-receiver. Its (as you'll probably quickly note) used by Huxley to understand ...

My only retort, in jest, as seems the case, would be that If you can alert me to a Radio signal without hte use of a receiver, i'll be interested in t...

Thank you mate - appreciate the response. While I'm not as dire, I feel roughly the same. My only comment is that I think you'd get a huge amount of p...

Ah, i see, cool, thank you. While I don't intend a debate about it, for closure, I agree that dualism is probably a bad conception, but I am unconvinc...

The first: I don't disagree (including, and I can't see why this needs pointing out, but there we go, the internal part of our body). The second: I'm ...

I don't think that's true - muscle memory is still an activity of hte brain with extremely low processing time. Its more like a pre-record in the mind...

How? Noting that, as far as I can tell, the rest of the paragraph states your opinion, not an argument for this relationship being absolute. This coul...

Entirely related to any previous comments (well, with any intent anyway!): I understand that most 'evidence's for physicalism amount to mainly evidenc...

Can you anticipate your response (in regard to the above, not your immediate visceral response) to a Trump win? I'm merely curious.

This strikes me as entirely a claim about the mind, and not about the external world. It's, in fact, rejecting any notion(as in any.. not any particul...

Fair enough - It certainly seemed like the implication was that a particular disagreement isn't possible and that it must be at a 'higher' level i.e w...

Competency, for the actual ethnic group 'Palestinian' in the face of such a suggestion would be 'Fuck off' - Just without violence this time.

Hey dude :) It seems to me disagreeing about what comes under the category 'good' can obviously be a particular disagreement. I often (as a pretty cen...

:ok:

:ok: And not at all ironic. I agree fully, whether I'm wrong or not :)

I understand what you're getting at, but that category is far too broad to have a name. What aspect of 'beyond our comprehension' are you pointing to?...

This is astounding level of honesty - I often see an inability to note that these risks actually exist in many areas - so, refreshing.

Tbf, any person at least five years younger than Trump is probably a better option. Though, that gives them room to prove me wrong :lol:

In no real order, other than to make the conclusion sensible: It really, truly is not. I have noted exactly why it is a legitimate avenue to take. I'm...

I agree, but that wasn't what i was suggesting. That's a fair call, but if, to his eyes, you're not giving good-faith responses, you can see why he wo...

Gotcha. Just seems odd this article declares him a winner with marginally more than 50% in.

Yeah, that's far less than I expected in terms of disparity. With that many votes to come, is it at all likely he wont win?

This is exactly the type of non-engagement I am seeing throughout the exchange. I don't know nearly enough to know whcih side is closer to 'correct' o...

I may need a hand - I'll have a muck around this evening (its 3pm rn) and get back with whether I need your help :) I do already have Discord/an accou...
