Hello, I just wanted to ask you if you could elaborate a bit more on that. Specifically, I'd like to know what it is that makes you believe that consc...
It seems to me that you are placing humans in a pedestal by assigning to us a non-physical entity (the soul) and taking it away from other animals, as...
Not the ideas themselves but the machinery that makes them possible. If the machinery that makes ideas possible is constrained by natural selection, t...
Yes. And what is it that limits it? It'd say it's the force of evolution. If it is evolution, I'd say that then every idea, which is also limited in i...
I like this idea. I believe live is the result of the universe trying to understand itself as if to attain complete knowledge is the end and beginning...
Isn't this true of every notion we have? And if so, how does this affect our notions of knowledge, Philosophy, Mathematics, etc. I mean, if my ideas, ...
According to you, what are the conditions for considering something to be alive? I ask because, for example, in my opinion, I believe something must b...
Yellow does not exist (as you said, it is EM waves); but the idea that the word "yellow" represents does exist (the nerve impulses that EM waves produ...
Or a feature not shared by all gene pools, taking into account that populations next to each other tend to share more genetic markers between them tha...
What if racist behaviour is a consequence of human genetics? There is overwhelming evidence in favour of kin selection, a form of selection where indi...
(1) In order for something to be perceived it must cause an impression in one's mind. (2) This impression cannot be the same as the thing itself, for ...
Everything that we considere to exist is limited by some shape or pattern; to exist is to have a limit. Then, I'd say that matter results from the act...
I dont see how. You are saying that you must first know what something is to establish its existence. I do not see how that makes any sense. If you ar...
By asking what it is, you are already assuming its existence; for how in the world could you inquire about something that does not exist. If you as a ...
You do not know what Santa Claus is. You have an idea of it that you have formed by using shapes that you have seen and things that you have heard and...
What are you trying to say here? If you know what something is then there is no need to ask yourself if it exists because it certainly does. I think t...
"So you are saying quality exists just in the observer?": No. Quality must exist independently from the observer. However, its "materialization" could...
Yes, ideas do count as things in my definition of "thing"; in fact, everything that possesses a limit I consider to be a thing. And I actually conside...
"I don't understand why this has to be the case. Isn't it conceivable that you exist just as you now do exist without the existence of a collection of...
"Its true that I am what I am because everything else is not me. But it isn't true that nothing outside of me can change without me changing. In fact,...
Well consider it this way, before you exist, it must be possible for you to do so, otherwise you would not exist. This possibility seems to be governe...
The fact that you exist necessarily implies that everything that is outside you exists since it is something that is not you, and hence it is. The sam...
Hey, here is something I wrote not long ago. It kind of solves your problem, I think. For A to become B the following conditions must be true before B...
So what if I say that "for existence to exist it must have not existed before?"... and for existence I mean a state that allows for things to exist. I...
Look here is what I believe. I will try to be as clear and concise as I can. We say something exists because it has a limit, or shape, or boundary, wh...
What if nothingness is a state in which everything is the same thing. However, I believe it exists because it has a limit; that is, nothingness is jus...
