Like synapse between neurons.

We are not only parts, we are relationships between parts. The parts that make up us are not simply aggregated, but also have functions around a direc...

Expressible... It is expressible. But in an anexact and generalized way. It is not a value that confuses or leads to ambiguity every time ]. It is not...

Now I understand. In that case the equality would be rather an approximation between the value of the sum of the square of the legs and the value of t...

Well, what I say about the skeptical subject is said fortiori for what he thinks is his act of doubting. That is, I claim that skeptical doubt is alre...

But isn't that just for the case where the length of each leg is 1? On the other hand, I would like to know what you mean by "Real Object."
November 30, 2023 at 11:33
That would be the case if we talked about truth as correspondence. But for me, correspondence and adequatio are forms of thought by which it becomes f...

But doesn't the historian present himself in a clearly theoretical attitude? I mean, the historian tries to affirm something about some historical mom...

The term "create" seems to me to lead to confusion towards the thought of a creatio ex nihilo. I prefer to say "catalyze", "induce" or "provoke".
November 29, 2023 at 18:16
You seem to have a restricted concept of a “real object.” It is also not clear to me how you deny that the Pythagorean theorem tells us anything about...

Hello, I come from the topic that talks about quantum physics and consciousness. I find what is said in the OP very interesting. My position is the fo...
November 29, 2023 at 06:30
That is exactly what I have referred to: the moment in which the scientist and his measuring devices intervene and affect the coherent system. Such a ...

Something that skepticism has always been criticized for is its inability to account for its intention of universality, truth and objectivity in its o...

If I do not misunderstand what he is referring to, it is that a quantum system has its properties of uncertainty even without the intervention of the ...

Sorry if I misinterpret, but where would he disagree with me?
November 28, 2023 at 22:08
Since the appearance of subjectivity described as interiority separated from the world, we have called the external world as that which is not subject...
November 28, 2023 at 18:52
Objective truths do in fact depend on an external world, a world that I have defined as a non-perceptual exteriority beyond subjectivity that also enc...
November 28, 2023 at 18:29
No. I claim that the essence of objective truths cannot be reduced to either perception or subjectivity. If there are truths it is of condition of thi...
November 28, 2023 at 18:10
Do mathematical truths have nothing to do with matter and energy? I agree, that's why I'm not a physicalist. If the example you have given is a truth,...
November 28, 2023 at 17:50
No. If you are not a Platonist, mathematical objects may depend on or be nothing more than objects emerging from brain processes. And a physicalist wi...
November 28, 2023 at 17:16
The argument holds regardless of whether you are a Platonist or not. And I claim that this argument that I have presented is not false. I claim is tru...
November 28, 2023 at 16:43
I am not talking exclusively about material objects. You can, if you want, consider numbers, logic, ideas, theories, etc., as Non-material objects or ...
November 28, 2023 at 16:33
They depend on the "external world" as a non-perceptual exteriority where the non-perceived occurs. There is no value that objectivity and truth is wo...
November 28, 2023 at 16:22
It requires it since there are no better reasons to affirm your existence than the existence of the world. It depends on your existence being a non-pe...
November 28, 2023 at 15:24
You are not showing, you are hypothetically assuming that there are truths about the existence of which their truth does not depend on the external wo...
November 28, 2023 at 15:09
If you assume that only your mind exists, you can no longer ask about the existence of the external world, you have already closed the way to answerin...
November 28, 2023 at 14:31
You are not taking into account the conditions of truth and objectivity. For the statement "This perception exists" to be true, it requires, so to spe...
November 28, 2023 at 14:17
What I have stated is precisely that existence can no longer be reduced to perception. That is, the statement "this perception exists" can only be tru...
November 28, 2023 at 13:52
If the question is about the existence of the "external world" necessarily the truth of the affirmative answer depends on mind-independent things. But...
November 28, 2023 at 13:18
What if we ask the opposite? What are the reasons to believe that I exist? Before answering the last question, I consider that we must ask ourselves a...
November 28, 2023 at 12:48
Hello everyone. This is my first intervention. This is my position on the matter. It seems to me that there is a confusion about what "measurement" me...
