Just to avoid putting my foot in it, is there some punctuation you could add to make this a little clearer? On it's face I want to say, I don't know w...

That's a totally different question. You're asking about something which (I presume, but could be wrong) has set (yet, arbitrary) rules which are 'the...

Which is exactly why it is not a medical practice. It's closer to a soft version of Shamanism. Which i have no issue with, but it should probably be d...

Interesting. It doesn't really shock me. Consider: If any of those theories are true, ignoring them is the highest possible level of failure in life. ...

Thinking something, as an idea, under certain concepts. concept-ualise. I take this to mean a something made into an intellectual intuition by way of ...

Yes, I get the feeling there's a underlying "This is at you, Immanuel..." with a but of a sneer - But, i agree with unenlightened that it's taking som...

as far as I’m concerned those are practical questions. I don’t know about any rules that I could apply to anyone else but me

I feel as if this must be a trick question. The individual could be any ethnicity and it’s the exact same stupid joke. What’s the catch?

we don’t experience the universe, just conceptualise it. It’s hard ti see how it could matter - I also take “mattering” to be something which inheres ...

yes, I’ve thought about this while reading a bit about it now. But it’s 2:30am now so maybe not the best time to be verbose - in short, yes I agree I ...

Through ep 004. I’m beginning to be convinced Hegel was an absolute moron. Interesting

If anyone else is in NZ we will be closest. Entire country is the size of less than Texas lol

I have to say this has hit the levels of entertainment already the ti didn’t think I’d get until April at least

People also swear by blessing a cup of dogs blood in the shadow of a virgin or whatver. I hope you’re being ironic lol

sure but the overwhelming failure of Chinese Medicine to effect medical benefit in general says to me it might have some accidental application - but ...

I’d agree and you’ve satisfied my question very well :)

I disagree

Once again, I am aware. I am well aware. That does not made it a medical practice. It might be worth not appealing to the fact that something exists, ...

Suffice to say it does none of those things, and has nothing within it that could be aware of something like COVID or long COVID (if that's a thing). ...

Yes, I am aware. But it was formed in a way that precludes it from being a medical practice, unfortunately. It is a spiritual practice at base, with Q...

I think it's more an indication that a society which doesn't understand cancer wont take it seriously.

My contention would be, no he does not. He is not a Doctor, but a legend. His methods appears to approximate Ayurvedic systems of pulse diagnosis. I c...

Well, both sides seems to think their guy is the guy, and the other guys is baffling inept. I happen to think both are. So, I could take any 'view' fr...

That appears to be a legend about cancer. Not a minor ailment at all ;)

1. The first half is relevant to the below - the latter half is my saying I don't think either your position, or theirs, is accurate to the actual sta...

This is such a good encapsulation of why politicking sucks so much. Nice. I live right next a School of Chinese Medicine and three people i know have ...

suffice to say it’s difficult to know what you’re trying to say other than “I’m convinced rape is objectively bad” So idk man. Maybe the reverse is th...

100%. From the outside this election is a joke

The fact that this is not the starting point for any IRL activity around these two groups is bizarre.

Its already baffling. That anyone thinks running Biden is a good move is beyond blind.

@"Ennui Elucidator" This is only ever even a reasonable inference if you can show the disparity is the result of some policy. Disparate outcomes don't...

I don't think we can say that, other than as a 'position' to take, rather than that it is the case. Isn't that what half of the questions in this aren...

I'm unsure it makes sense to say that the universe matters. Sure, for it to matter, as it is, it would need to matter to something/one outside of it. ...

I'm unsure it presents anything particularly different from a baby's experience in a high-paced family anyway. My children were certainly pillar-to-po...

That seems a good structure. Happy for that to be the go, if anyone else is interested! Seems perhaps not at this stage though :groan:

It was, in fact, the indictment you seem to be avoiding, of his followers ;) I do not think they would comprehend these things, and I also rest on the...

:ok: I am more than happy to note my position is fairly counterintuitive, and it is supposed to be. I do act my intuitions in real life (such as "rape...

Not at all. Kiwi's don't have humour. I'm Irish.

I'm unsure we can, other than as a position.

I think its possible this train is why Confucius hasn't hit the Aurelius or even Sun Tzu level of modern popularity. This is a bit circular and doesn'...

I understand that you are convinced consciousness is not even considerable other than as a property emergent from brain activity. Is that correct, Dr?

It is limited to things uncaused, surely.

Very much agree, though I'm not a partner. Even Harvey Specter left Specter Litt Wheeler Williams when he got with his secretary :lol:

:ok:

I mean, I could, sure, and it would comport with a popular understanding. But, in a philosophical discussion I'm unsure how to note that rape is bad. ...

I'm not entirely sure I understand the part about the conversation devolving from philosophical to ordinary, but hey... I don't understand a lot of th...

I don't. Because comfort is not a measure of good or bad unless achieving comfort is the aim. And, is it? Not for morality. I think it's very, very un...

I understand this. And i understand it to be an emotive defense of a patently incorrect assertion, based on an irrational response to a perceived slig...

I think i'm understanding the commentary, but i'm unsure how it's between Corvus' claim and the negation of his claim. It seems to support it... But, ...

I'm unsure what to say but: No it doesn't. this is the code with a couple of spaces: But the point is that, Kant used Thing-in-itself to posit the exi...
