Do you have any reading recommendations on that topic?

I was also interested in first-person data, subjective experience... is there a compatibilist perspective that considers that kind of thing?

Interesting. So we can't really do research about that kind of topic?

Stop talking when the holy dude answers your question about hell by cupping his hands together and saying that religion is about loving another person...

I didn't mean that Wosret would intentionally employ assholes if he was the Emperor of All.

Yes. A lot of the immigrants here are Chinese. North America and China were once connected so there are a lot of plant types that the two regions have...

Immigrants are usually stronger than natives. It impacts the course one takes establishing a path through the property jungle. This way takes you towa...

You'll probably employ a certain number of assholes though. You can't keep track of them all.

Cool. Where does so-called first person data fit into their analysis, or does it? I'm thinking of Searle wiggling his finger as proof of will. I think...

Always check under your bed for researchers before retiring.

What occurred to me is that studies of this kind tend to use college students. They're not too far out of childhood. Obviously that's not the way to s...

Hmm. Confusing. I think compatibilism is an off-road to nowhere. I'm a contradictionalist. :)

Just sensationalism? "I need to publish something.. let me make it outlandish.."

You're saying this kind of research amounts to entrapment?

But I'm not getting how the dispositionalist is offering an option. Determinists don't disagree that talk of logical possibility is valuable.

The studies do make use of a lot of lying.

OMG. Why didn't I think of putting my name in the thread title instead of hers? Oh well.. doesn't matter now.

A determinist like Schopenhauer simply notes that apriori every event can only have one outcome. If the outcome of a die roll is that the 5 is face up...

I thought you were talking about that scene from Innocents Abroad where they were standing around looking at Christopher Columbus' signature. That was...

Yes. I know what you mean. What some people in the emergency department are thinking about the dude with little charcoal stumps for hands and feet is ...

At one time I would have said it was about recognizing the humanity of various kinds of people... not really about kindness. It could be rolled back. ...

So if Harry were to argue for intensional definitions, would he be arguing against Witt? Or just talking past him?

So he was promoting semantic externalism?

Witt was arguing against the idea that communication involves some communion of memories?

Maybe it would help if you explained what viewpoint Witt was trying to counter with "meaning is use."

Thanks. I was sort of trying to discuss the massive changes that took place in the 20th with BC. Over here, there's a Hulu TV show that's caught a lot...

It's to say you're willing to assert the same proposition. If John says "Two is a prime number," we'd have to look to context to understand why John i...

I'm going to try to develop that physical awareness.

So when the release happens, do you become aware of what it's associated with?

Oh, so don't fight nature. Let things go as they will. That makes sense. How do you force a release? Meditating? Yoga?

So what do you do about it when someone comes along who's being really effective at this sort of thing... so much so that people you've known for year...

I think some of the worst violence is emotional. There usually has to be a bond of love to begin with for that kind of violence to happen. But with th...

Neither. It just shows that your telepathy skills suck. For a lot of people in the late 20th, it's like the ghost of the patriarchy was around.. maybe...

You answered my question as if you're a consulting anthropologist.

I can tell you about AT&T. Everybody I worked with was male. The environment was consciously patterned after the US military (which, like Napoleon, ad...

I came along when there were prescribed roles. Maybe you swore you'd never step into that sitcom, but due to the power of archetypes or whatever, you ...

Well what is female ethics then?

Which scientists? "Law of Explanation" is the way Schopenhauer put it. That you have confidence in it is obvious, so it would be dubious for you to de...

I think that's the pop science version of the story. I was disappointed to find that the real theory in question doesn't say that. Dclements has point...

I understand. And in the meantime, I'm awesome and those people are screwed up. I think it's probably human ethics...not just males

Lol. True.

He admits he fights dirty. Do you think Obama was more honest? Or just better at PR?

You don't think there's some honesty twisted up in his bullshit?

Male ethics is a cultural thing? Or is the actual the limit of the Real?

cult of personality ?
