Doesn't it sound odd to add "directly" and "indirectly" on these statements, when they perfectly make sense without these words? Really? How do you te...

If you cannot demonstrate, explain and prove your own statements on others in logical and understandable manner, when asked, then your statements woul...

Surely what you are seeing is the image of the ship via telescope, not the ship itself?
January 22, 2026 at 11:18
Kant's idea on time is, that it is the pure form, intuition and sensibility, which is imposed on the external world and objects. It is a priori ideali...
January 21, 2026 at 12:22
It wasn't complaint. Was just answering to your question truthfully.
January 21, 2026 at 09:10
We can talk something about shadows and God, because we have some ideas on them from what we heard, seen (the shadow case) and read about them, even i...

I didn't see anything directly relating to Hegel's idea on time from your quote, hence wrote what I read on Hegel's time in the reply. From my memory,...
January 21, 2026 at 00:54
From what I read, it seems Hegel had totally different idea on time from Kant's idea of time - Time is intrinsic to each and every existence as part o...
January 20, 2026 at 23:18
Fair enough.
January 20, 2026 at 23:12
You are seeing something physical which is entering your sensory organ - the shadow. Of course you can talk about it. Where there is no cause for the ...

Does Hegel say time is just subjective perception? Or does he talk about time as some external entity in the material world?
January 20, 2026 at 17:20
That sounds like a typical mindless utterance from someone who can't reason. Tell us what you know about reasoning and dogma in logical manner. And ex...

Thank you for invitation to the topic. May see you there.
January 20, 2026 at 12:13
Thank you for letting us know. Enjoy your time writing the novel. I hope and trust you will be back here soon for more interesting philosophical topic...
January 20, 2026 at 10:45
I agree. Things in themselves sounds like contradiction. If we don't know anything about it, we couldn't even name it or talk about it. The fact that ...
January 20, 2026 at 10:40
Not just blind subjectivity. That would be meaningless. I just feel that philosophical interpretation has to be clearer and decipherable than the orig...

I would discuss poetry with you, but not philosophy, mate. All the best.
January 19, 2026 at 20:58
I am just saying what my reasoning tells me. Better than quoting from popular media or claiming something is correct just because doctors and medical ...
January 19, 2026 at 20:57
Yes, this is the point. Kant's work might be a few hundred years old now, and some might say they are far too outdated for today. I still feel that we...
January 19, 2026 at 13:48
How do you know if something exists or not, if it is unknowable? What do you mean by "inaccessible" here? In what sense our mode of cognition is inacc...
January 19, 2026 at 09:32
I thought about the points of discussion over the weekend, and still found some parts of the passages were not clear. What do you mean by sensibility ...
January 19, 2026 at 09:19
Sadly your claim is still coming from appeal to authority or popular media. Your rant is devoid of logic and knowledge what the word "biological" mean...
January 19, 2026 at 08:24
What is your stance on the issue?
January 19, 2026 at 08:20
Maybe you need to bring in Scientific explanation on this point along with Metaphysical analysis and elaboration.
January 17, 2026 at 15:46
:up: Yes, agreed.

It is still the same apple even if with some of its atoms are missing or altered. It is called identity through time. With time change in the universe...
January 17, 2026 at 11:30
OK, fair enough on that. But it doesn't say anything about why and how time is intuition, and nothing about the nature of time itself. Remember time i...
January 17, 2026 at 10:14
No problem. I was just curious on the statement that Time is intuition, said by Kant. I was trying to analyse and delve into what it meant in deeper a...
January 17, 2026 at 10:03
You seem to have misunderstood my point in my previous posts to Metap. I was not saying time is objective, but measurements of time is objective. Beca...
January 17, 2026 at 09:51
Does it mean that you disagree with what Kant wrote? i.e. Time is intuition?
January 17, 2026 at 00:31
But if nothing changed at all in the world, would anyone perceive time? The fact of the matter is, things change (e.g. Sun rises every morning), hence...
January 17, 2026 at 00:04
I think you are seeing two objects, not a single object. You can say it is one object, and call it apptab, but no one else will understand what you me...
January 17, 2026 at 00:01
We are not interested in knowing it was a cup. We are interested in if the cup exists as a real object. It is all what realism is concerned, isn't it?...
January 16, 2026 at 15:15
If time doesn't change at all, then how do humans perceive it? What is it that humans perceive as time passing e.g. from this morning to midday? If ti...
January 16, 2026 at 15:08
Space and time are both intuitions. This statement needs some clarification. Time changes every moment. If time is intuition, then what changes in int...
January 16, 2026 at 13:08
OK fair enough. But going back the DR or IR, they are both realism. Isn't realism about existence? It is not about concept, or knowing. It is about ex...
January 16, 2026 at 12:50
It seems to indicate that you don't need your internal cup in your mind to be able to see the external cup in the external world. At the beginning fir...

Think of this example. 1. Amad died and his biological body was found in his house. 2. Amad's biological body was removed from his house after his dea...
January 16, 2026 at 10:27
Your claims sound so illogical and nonsensical. It reminds me of reading something in the shady internet commercial sites, or ChatGPT stuff. Dead body...
January 15, 2026 at 22:13
Why do you have to "infer" the perceived object, when you are seeing it?
January 15, 2026 at 20:56
Where does your concept of "cup" come from? How does your internal concept of "cup" instantiates in the external world?
January 15, 2026 at 19:38
I am not sure where you are quoting your claims from. It sounds like some AI or internet information. I am totally relying on my own reasoning on thes...
January 15, 2026 at 19:35
Does it mean when you see a cup on the table, the cup exists on the table, and it also exists in your mind?
January 15, 2026 at 13:31
It was obvious from the observations, many members were there for increasing their business, making more contacts preferably richer older folks, and t...
January 14, 2026 at 22:05
You don't say a corpse with no biological function, a biological body. It is just nonsense. Please understand that Logic and Semantic are closely rela...
January 14, 2026 at 22:01
I have no time to argue with you on the point which is not even main issue with this thread. Enjoy your poetry mate.
January 14, 2026 at 19:35
My points were from my experience of observing the church members when attending the churches in my teens. There are many different types and sectors ...
January 14, 2026 at 19:21
You can extract DNA from rocks. Dead body is not biological body. It is a corpse. Biological body means a body with the biological functions. Yes, we ...
January 14, 2026 at 19:16
My point was measurements of time has to be objective to be meaningful for science or practical life. But time itself doesn't exist in the world. Only...

Infinity is a concept saying that there is no end in counting (in math), or final point (in physics or the material word or movement). If there were t...
