If you read the posts carefully, it is clear why it is a contradiction and why it is a tautology. All the steps of the inferences are based on the rul...
Sure. I agree. Do dogs perceive time? When you throw a ball in the air, the dogs could jump and catch it before it falls on the ground. Surely they no...
I only highlighted it for you to let you know about the strawman. Venus was not the main point in the argument. It is mentioned to explain why the sta...
The OP doesn't deny time is real. We use time daily. But when it asks does time exist, it means does it exist as a physical entity in the universe? Sp...
That sounds like a strawman. You are suddenly talking about Venus, when the point of the replies was about the morning star and evening star. They may...
"The morning star is the evening star." is also a tautology. The morning star and evening star both refer to Venus. Hence it has the same meaning as "...
The reason that the Morning star is morning star is because it is only visible in the mornings. But the reason that the evening star is the evening st...
Space is not like time. Space exits without measuring anything. Does time exist, if you didn't measure it? Can you tell time without looking at a watc...
Today is 13th of January in Chinese lunar calendar, and 12th of Magha Shukla in Hindu calendar. In Gregorian Calendar it is 10th February 2025. Could ...
Could "lived time" be similar idea to Wittgenstein's "memory time"? I recall seeing Wittgestein's idea of time diving it into "Memory time" and "infor...
They could be thought of the qualities of your being. They are not direct effects and causes for your choices. Extending the effects and causes to you...
Well, MoK, if you agreed that Jesus and God is not one, then you must be in agreement that Trinity is an invalid doctrine. That gives us a logical con...
Well, one last point you must understand is that, when an act has been committed with no time for consideration and contemplation for moral good, it c...
"The morning star is the morning star." sound like a tautology. But it is not a tautology, when the subject means the planet Venus, and the predicate ...
Is it possible to say that something exists, when the existence vanishes the moment it is perceived or realised? Existence means it keeps existing thr...
Oscillation of what? I can measure many different things and use them as time such as the number of water droppings from the gutter while making a cof...
When you say making choices, it necessitates options. In other words, you could have made choices because there were options or alternative decisions....
Those are not related to philosophical idea of free will. Constraints and determinants are the properties of your own being. They are part of your ess...
Well, that is a misunderstanding the concept free will, I am afraid. You have free will. If you didn't have free will, you would not have typed your p...
Using the concepts without implied boundaries and definitions within the concepts will cause confusions like that. Philosophical investigation is to p...
Free will means that you are free to choose on a particular matter from what you are given and as a living being, be it gene, environments, nutrients ...
No humans have banana tree gene. What is the point of telling us that? It is irrelevant point, and there is no logical link for what you are claiming....
According to ChatGpt, Venus is not a star. It is a planet. The sun is a star. Stars shine their own light. Planets don't. Planets reflect the light fr...
Choice itself implies the act of choosing was made by the person and the person's free will. Banana tree gene is irrelevant premise for your conclusio...
If you find nothing of substance in this philosophical discussion of time, then maybe you are not interested in philosophical topics? Almost all major...
It just means, "future". We have three perception of temporality. Past, present, future. Past comes from our memories, present comes from the state of...
In my view, time in space-time should have been "space-perception", not time. Time doesn't exist. Space does. Einstein must have meant to say "space-p...
When you say "matter", it is not clear what you are exactly referring to. Could you be more specific? Of course physical objects exist i.e. chairs, de...
But what had been happening are not time itself. They are events, changes and motions. Can we flip time, and see the other side of time? Dog barking h...
Do you agree Jesus doesn't have God's essence from the OP's implication? If you are looking at the issue from general logic, then you could. You don't...
I disagree. The real point is that if you acted in the situation of self defence, then the case is in the domain of legal matter of the society you li...
It has nothing to do with changing mind. The point is that practical reasoning is guiding you that, 1) No one but himself has right to decide what to ...
From my memory of reading their texts, Hume and Kant both seem to be saying time has no independent existence i.e. time is an internal perception eman...
Time reflects the state of changes in reality. Our perception can tell the state of the changes, and judge the propositions as true or false according...
Bunge's writing is reflecting the point. We are not saying that time is not real, but saying that time has no independent existence. So, a question ar...
I agree. I cannot perceive anything or any object which is time itself either. I have never seen a being called time itself. But we often hear people ...
There are only three types of time perceptions we have. Past, Present and Future. Past come from the memory i.e. remembering the events in the past. P...
Please bear in mind that the OP is not denying the fact that we use time in our daily living. However, it is trying to explore the existence, entity a...
Knowledge comes from the empirical observation and internal reasoning. The laws of thought tells us what is truth and falsity on the contents of our p...
Another reason why the acts of self defence are not in the domain of morality. Usually acts of self defence happens without contemplation or premedita...
I was just commenting from the general religious point of view including Christianity, Buddhism and Hindus etc. Reason tends to go back to the points,...
They are not the same meaning. Time doesn't exist as an entity in reality. It is a product of your mind. It is an extra perception generated from moti...
