The explanation is in the earlier exchange with you, in my response to your claim that one cannot be deceived by one's own feelings. The gist of what ...
These particles are what Nick called activities. I need an explanation as to how an activity is "matter". I would say that "matter" refers to whatever...
The position of truth would depend on how you would define "truth". If truth is correspondence, then truth is possible, but the problem is in knowing ...
I think I provided an initial answer, here: Right, there's no "matter" there, in those "particles", just activity. "'Particle' part of matter"? What d...
I explained in detail why it is necessary to conclude that there is some form of "judgement" occurring at a subconscious level. You said: "This is tan...
Not really, we observe activity, and assume that there is particles involved in this activity. The "matter" which is supposed to substantiate the exis...
Doesn't this answer the question of the op then: "How does matter arise from consciousness?". "Matter" is an assumption which the conscious mind makes...
Anyone can search the internet for material to back up one's biased opinions. Your referenced "academic material" was off topic and not interesting to...
OMG! What's the world coming to, if we have to include emojis in our writing or else we'll be misunderstood. Is the emoji the written form of inflecti...
As I said in the first post we assume "matter" as the reason for the observed temporal continuity, consistency, in those observed properties and measu...
No, I see that you are extremely biased and opinionated, you pay no attention to reason, therefore I have no inclination to give you what you beg for....
Isn't all we know, at all levels, "physical properties, observed an measured"? So, what more are you asking for? Why do you say that these are propert...
Matter is purely conceptual. Traditionally it's the concept Aristotle used to account for what was observed as the temporal continuity of sameness. As...
You actually made an even more preposterous reduction Mww. I explained very clearly why there must be some form of "judgement" inherent within sensibi...
So, do you think we should all throw away the calculators and go back to long division, and figuring square roots, and things like that, because borin...
Yes, and what a mess the human being is. We're torn apart by the difference between rational thought and bodily desires, such that we are sometimes ov...
I'm a little bit worried about all the sophisticated AI software seeping down into the hands of the general public. Eventually TPF could be infiltrate...
That your "lexicon" describes two distinct, but similar experiences as one shared experience indicates that it is not logically rigorous. If you do no...
No, it means that we are each having the same kind of experience. Two distinct experiences which are both of the same kind does not justify the claim ...
I do not see how "infinite" could be anything other than quantitative. I don't see how to conceive of an infinite quality. What would that even mean? ...
Instead of using Einstein's relativity as an example of how science is tainted, you ought to simply realize that this theory is unscientific. The prin...
I don't see how you come to the conclusion that God must be altered. To take away, or subtract from the infinite leaves it no less infinite. So if the...
Intuition itself maybe be mistaken. Perhaps, faulty intuition ought not be called false judgement, if we should restrict the definition of "judgement'...
If God is necessarily one, then He cannot divide Himself. If He is capable of dividing Himself, you cannot describe Him as necessarily one. This is an...
How does "shared experience" even make sense to you? From all that I can glean from my own experience, it appears very obvious that my personal experi...
I don't see how you derive what you call "D" here. If God is One, and was active prior to His creation, what prevents Him from being active currently?...
I guess that depends on how how you define "accurate information". Are you saying that since we nourish ourselves, reproduce, and manage a little ente...
Our perceptions of the world need not resemble the world in any way, in order for us to develop some sort of understanding. All that is required is co...
Oh thanks, that makes more sense. I couldn't figure out what you were asking, now I can answer the question. Physical interactions do not produce free...
This doesn't work, because what is behind the appearance of the rock could be all sorts of strange interactions, meaning, information, which is not in...
I believe that intentional effects are fundamentally incompatible with Newton's first law. A force acting from within a body, to alter the motion of t...
The problem with this is that we could not even call this "attributes", because "attribute" refers to an apprehended order. That's the reason for sepa...
Chicken, chicken, you can't roost to high for me. Chicken, chicken, come on outta that tree... - The words of a man who loves to eat chicken, Mississi...
I'd say, that's much better. When you understand that indirect realism undermines itself, as proposed in the op, and the problems of direct realism pe...
Right, that's the way ontology works, we make definitions which accord with the way that we understand reality, and we proceed from those principles. ...
The representation in the op is incorrect. it is inherently biased, direct realist, by showing the external as the same as the image which the direct ...
Ever fall asleep in the middle of a sentence? If so, you know how to say the strangest, most random things. The speaking does not end at the point of ...
I believe that ideological conformity requires effort because evolution is a fundamental, essential feature, of the living organism. Intensified socie...
I didn't see that either of us was trying to distinguish 'perspective' from 'point of view'. What would be the point of making such a distinction? The...
That's not accurate, because they are grounded in before and after, which is a specific feature of change. Your definition was "according to before an...
I really think you need to reread that section, you might come to a better understanding. He clearly talks about time as being measured and he describ...
That would be "Physics" Bk 4, Ch 11-14. I don't think you've read the section of the "Physics" which I refer to, if this is what you think. 219b: "Tim...
He also says, that in another sense "time" is what is measured. "Time" as that which is measured, is completely different from "time" as "the measure ...
In your question you asked about describing "parts of the world". This implies particular stop signs. So it just means that your example was not relev...
To describe a type of thing, a stop sign for example, is not the same as describing a particular thing, like a particular stop sign. It's not that the...
Describing something requires paying attention to it. How do you think that someone could describe a part of the world which has no one paying attenti...
