Ok, maybe that was a weak move. Let me try to write it down in a few words. Conceptual reality is in our minds. It is fragmented, it has a notion of t...
Why not? Be careful for doctrines. If anybody said that, they must refer to something they have understood by own experience or insight. Do not go whe...
I don't think that is true. Fundamental reality is a concept to point to the fact that the real nature of things cannot be understood conceptually. We...
That is only because terms are confused. Kant sort of denies the conceptual reality. According to him the real thing we cannot understand, leaving us ...
why not both? If I understand these words correctly, they both agree with what I try to say. Plus it is a lot shorter. To me it seems there we must st...
And yet, there is something there. Because when we know there is a duck there, we can do all kinds of experiments and involve other people to prove th...
I absolutely do not mean the word "duck" against the real duck. The problem is, the mind always and automatically applies one layer of abstraction. In...
Not a problem but I can't follow you. While I believe I do understand what Kant is saying, when I read it I say "yes, yes" every sentence. To me it fe...
I have difficulty understanding what you are saying. It seems to me you are addressing the problem solely through reasoning. You might say, that is wh...
It is quite possible to speak of things that you don't know. Language doesn't have a problem. The "unknown" you can speak of, just as "future", "surpr...
because that is how Kant defines it. If we can understand it, we give it a name, and then it is part of conceptual reality. Yet we find that every tim...
First, that picture is genius! I see the letter F and E ! To answer your question: that is something we simply have to accept that our mind is incapab...
Yes, I definitely mean more than this. What I am trying to do is to break the topic up in different chunks. If you like the overall topic and want to ...
You are absolutely right, we don't know how we think. We have two perspectives on the matter, one is our own experience of thinking, the other is our ...
Nice. I want to add one thing. I think this paradox you mention is partly solved by the "one way system" I mentioned. When you know what you are looki...
But if we would listen to Kant, he says we cannot understand fundamental reality. Our conceptual thinking is unable to go there. Nobody listens. Inste...
Without humans inventing the letters E and F, how can there be these letters in fundamental reality? Only when you know what you are looking for, you ...
Could you please contribute to the topic instead of just venting your opinions about what you think I think of my ideas? If you are interested in more...
True, but that is still conceptual reality. It makes it more apparent that fundamental reality is of a different make and cannot be understood. One co...
Too funny: And thanks for the welcome. As for the business, I don't see the difference in what I say and what you say. With the cookies in a certain c...
