Plato couldn't talk about Kant obviously, as having not been born for almost another 2000 years, Kant wasn't around when Plato was alive :) Yes, I sup...

You wouldn't call or equate a lump of computer chips and memories as mind, reason or consciousness. :) Of course the physical existence of the chips a...

Yes, this is actually excellent point. I haven't read CPR that far yet, but looked it up now. Indeed you are right. Thanks for pointing it out. :100:

Sure. A good point. :up:

I have 4 different versions of CPR. They are ones translated by, JMD Meiklejohn, NK Smith, Max Muller, Paul Guyer and Allen Wood None of them seems us...

A good video for the topic. Thanks. :up: However, I never said that reason creates logic. :D When you say reason doesn't create logic (whoever said re...

Cool. Will have a look at the video, and get back to you later in due course. :ok:

From my books on Kant, they all seem to agree in saying that Kant's main point for writing CPR was to draw a boundary on the power of human reason i.e...

I am not sure even Kant says you have a 2nd frame where your sense contents get transferred into for further organisation. Anyway, Kant was not a Phen...

I am still saying that, just the red patch colour visual perception would be more meaningful than the scientific instrument reading of the red patch e...

Strictly speaking, wouldn't it be the instruments (invented and calibrated for their own convenience by humans) which tells the wave length of 700nm e...

I looked into this further, and it seems to me Kant's Category of Cause is a concept to be applied to the external world events as cause and effect. I...

Yeah sounds reasonable. :cool: :up: Not sure, if science has to be consulted for that assurance. Wouldn't common sense or intuition do? And we don't r...

I don't think Kant must have thought there were two cups when he was making a coffee for himself, and took out a cup from the cupboard. There is a cup...

If I interpret thing-in-itself as some sort of copy or separate entity of an object, it sounds absurd to me. Therefore I look at it this way. Thing-in...

I am sure there are some aspects that is useful for strengthening the Scientific principles for the Scientists from theoretic stance. For me personall...

Cool. You are the first one who laughed at my joke :D

It is a shame that you have to resort to the information coming from the popular media, rather than information that you reason, intuit and experience...

I don't agree with that at all.

I don't suppose anyone would take the whole Kant's system as some valid or useful system today. The world has moved on, and 200+ years is a long time ...

Science is impossible without Metaphysics. Causality, gravity, relativity, atoms, ... they are all metaphysical concepts. In the external world, there...

:100: :fire:

OK Bob Thank you for your reply, and explanation. I am not sure if thing-in-itself is an entity that you are forced to formulate yourself conceptually...

Hello Bob You seem to have forgotten to add your ESP, which can know the future, God and afterlife too. :) What do you mean here? The only thing ambig...

Any thread with "The universe" tends to be huge just like the universe, obscure and fascinating just like the universe. :)

So you have knowledge of a representation of the thing-in-itself, but that does not count as any sort of knowledge of the thing-in-itself. Then where ...

Hello Bob Isn't it the case that when your sensibility is 100% accurate and everything about the thing-in-itself can be and is gathered by your senses...

I am in my study room now. I cannot see anything outside of the room. In my visual sense, all I see is the walls, a lamp, a desk, a bookshelf with the...

I felt my joke was lost somewhere in the desert of Australia when I gave the example "one's acceptance of his town and the surrounding area as the onl...

Could you please elaborate and clarify on this sentence? What do you mean by "mirror"? Where does the "mirror" come from? How do you know the mirror w...

For you to arrive at the conclusion that you don't know anything about X, you should have known, 1. the fact that you don't know anything about X. 2. ...

Not necessarily. It is not all about the terms and breaking it down in semantics. My main interest was actually, whether the universe should include G...

I have not given out my definition of the universe, or mentioned anything about in which sense I am using the word yet. I think your comment was based...

Sure. But isn't one of the methods of Philosophy to ask and analyse meanings and definitions of terms in the sentence trying to find out if the concep...

Not exactly entirely? For one thing, we know that they are impossible to know, so we know something about them partially, but not entirely.

What is the ground for your claim that it is problematic?

:cool: :ok:

In my Companion Book to Philosophy, there is neither entry for the Universe, nor the World. So I went to Wiki, and read about the Universe. It seems t...

Judgement also needs content, no? Judgement is always about something. With no contents, judgement is impossible, You take up logic to arrive at some ...

Some will get bored with the free time, but some will enjoy doing what they enjoy doing e.g. travelling, dating (online chatting with the robots?), re...

I will come back the other points later, but for this, how would logic be able to correct itself, when it does not have any content in it? How would l...

But would it be possible to conceptualise the universe as a single process? Can the universe even be conceived or defined? If yes, how and what would ...

I suppose there are jobs that AI can never do no matter how capable and intelligent they are. For instance, suppose AI could cook, but they cannot eat...

1. Whether the contents of the thoughts came from the external world, or arose in the mind by thinking, intuiting, imagining, memorising ... etc, they...

You are circling around in the loop of the inputs and logic. I advise you to jump out of it immediately to the world of reason. :)

This is a circular statement. You input any meaning which is a logical consequence as the inputs to the logic? Not equate, but logic is a thinking pro...

That sounds like a circular statement.

That seems different from my understanding of General and Transcendental logic in Kant. My understanding is that the general logic deals with how thou...

Thanks for your reply. However, I don't agree with your view. One of the reason is that your view on logic is too narrow. I have read that definition ...

Before that, could you please clarify what you meant by logic is "contentless"? Contentless in what sense? What contents are you referring to in conte...
