There had been some mad and deranged moral systems in practice in some parts of the world in the past. Who knows how the future generations will judge...
Julian Young's book on Schopenhauer says Schopenhauer's Will was Kant's Thing-in-Itself (pp.54, Routledge, 2005, Schopenhauer, juilian young), and he ...
How does reason manifest in the world without reasoner or reasoning? Isn't some parts of the world unknown, irrational and mysterious? We don't exactl...
Isn't this an example where the false premises lead to wrong conclusions? Even if the argument appears valid in the form, it cannot reflect the true r...
The fact that we can perform actions driven by will means that will could combine with reasoning. When reason and will combine, they become motivated ...
It sounds like Will is some sort of agent or force with no principle on its operation. Is it something that is contrary to rationality or intelligence...
I never said I was better than anyone. Maybe that's what you feel for some strange reasons. My postings are not about claiming one is better than the ...
OK, good citing from Science of Logic. It is amazing to realise how Hegel's philosophy is largely based on the critique of Kant. That little edition o...
Doesn't Kant acknowledge that Metaphysics is not the same type of Science as the other Sciences? To start, Metaphysics doesn't use experiments, observ...
I only mentioned it only as a response. A regrettable point not initiated by me. However, I welcome all arguments purely on the philosophical point of...
It is not so much of our issue at this time of history whether metaphysics works as science or not. We know what science and metaphysics are, and thei...
As usual Janus posts are filled with scorn, anger and hatred towards others, rather than anything philosophical. I was only giving the best answer to ...
It doesn't matter what you believe in my reading of CPR. It is not a philosophical issue. It is also not matter how many times one read CPR, if one do...
The point is that it is not a claim that can be supported by quoting a few recondite sentences in CPR. You must read the whole lot of authors involved...
I found often it is meaningless to cite CPR in few sentences where the writings are vague and ambiguous due to the old translations. It would be far b...
Yes, by all means present your own arguments citing all the authors and CPR and the other Kant's original texts too supporting your points, and we wil...
We have a part agreement here, which is a rare event. Actually it is difficult for me to imagine what colour blind would be like without being one mys...
If one says one can use words without knowing its meanings, then he is wrong, whoever he is. They must have been acquainted with something other than ...
You really need to read much more than just CPR to understand what Kant was up to at the time. Read Leibniz, Wolff, and Baumgarten, then Hume and Newt...
Isn't the whole content of CPR about experience, its objects, and how reasoning and judgements and concepts are related to them? Physics cannot deal w...
Wittgenstein was wrong. They could be using the word red metaphorically, rhetorically or idiomatically to mean something other than the colour red suc...
Not everyone agrees with Wittgenstein. If you don't know what red means, how could you use the word "red"? If you are a colour blind, how could you te...
Didn't Kant say that Metaphysics is possible as Science as long as it deals with the objects in our experience? For instance we can think and discuss ...
Kant was not interested in dualism or transcendental idealism. His main aim was to prove that metaphysics was possible as a science. In order to do th...
I try reading them both, but try to come to my own interpretation from my own reasoning which may or may not be correct. But if it is not resonating w...
It seems daft view to say there are two worlds. I don't believe Kant would have said it. There were miriad of Kant commentators who were making unfoun...
Are they direct claims of Kant? Or are they interpretations of the commentaries? Anyhow, they both sound unclear and ambiguous on their claims. Just b...
I am reading the thin book with tiny printing "Science of Logic" - it hurts eyes due to the small prints in the pages but makes the book cheap, thin a...
In that case, I am not sure if Hegel was understanding Kant properly. Because from my view, it is not clear that Kant's world view was dualism. What K...
The concept "spirit" is too abstract if not unclear and esoteric in Hegel. Does it contain both mind and body? Or is it some disembodied entity? Or is...
"self-moving soul, the principle of all natural and spiritual life" needs explanation for its meaning and ontological and metaphysical nature. Does Sc...
Yes, I agree. Detailed and accurate source info for the quotations and citations are important and critical in the postings. Without them, some reader...
What does "reality" mean in Hegel? Is the dualism for the world(s), or between body and mind like the Cartesians? Do we create the world? How do we do...
