I generally enjoy discussions regarding the existence/non-existence of God. Unfortunately, those who profess to be atheists tend to get rather abusive...
You seem to be suggesting that independent and interaction and influence and perception are all somehow synonymous. And again, you seem to be suggesti...
Banno writes in English. I write in English. Being able to say it in the first person is not a sufficient criterion for separating the so called subje...
I agree with Leo. The notion of "objective" truth is rooted in the age old "subject/object", "inner/outer" nonsensical Cartesian dichotomies. Calling ...
We are addicted to power and control. So much of religion is focused upon finding a way to make do as we please. If we just say the right things and d...
Most of our language is simply about being there with others. We talk weather, we talk cars, we talk sports, we talk politics, we talk books, we talk ...
I agree with your general thrust. However, the interaction of things does not in and of itself define whether they are "independent." And that is espe...
seriously, it is called all sorts of things and we are dealing with a translation. If I were to take up learning a new language, it would definitely b...
There is nothing more meaningfully expressive of our explicit understanding of entities as entities than our regular and ongoing involvement with them...
There is no point to laying out the process of interpretation without accounting for the primary results and aim of interpretation (facilitating the t...
It matters not whether your purpose is 1) to tell us the meaning of A by fully explicating B or 2) to fully explicate B in order to tell us the meanin...
IF a primary purpose (perhaps the primary purpose) of Being and Time is to capture the average everyday involvement of being-in-the-world; AND IF much...
whether language is inherent in all actions does not determine whether an action is verbal/non-verbal. If we account for those actions (in which langu...
The degree to which one insists upon language as somehow running through and through our average everyday involvement in the world is the degree to wh...
You will never be able to capture the average everydayness of our involvement in the world without accounting for all expressed interpretations. Eithe...
I am addressing Heidegger and Language. Confusion also results when people presume their projects are the same as the projects of other people. My pri...
Though Heidegger did indeed consider language to be the house of being, it is important to keep in mind that in Being and Time he is attempting to des...
The thread is entitled Heidegger and Language and though I refer specifically toBeing and Time in the original post, there is nothing in the original ...
Discourse is not exclusively tied to being-with. Discourse is equiprimordial with both disposition (mood, state-of-mind) and understanding. As such an...
To clarify, I interpret discourse as the process of expressing an interpretation of an understanding rooted in the intelligibility of being-in-the-wor...
First, I do believe my opening remark for the thread was to the effect that Heidegger’s position on language is a bit confusing and that one of the wa...
I can neither reasonably agree nor disagree with your premise since your only response to enquiries regarding your feebly supported sub-premises was t...
And therefore? Are you asking me whether I agree or what I think that means? I suspect any understanding of discourse as equiprimordial with state-of-...
"What does Heidegger mean when he says, as quoted above: "Discourse is the articulation of intelligibility."?" Why are you asking me? :smile: My inter...
"Whether it's historically/etymologically rooted in that or not doesn't matter. The distinction can (and typically does) simply refer to mental versus...
"There's no "transcendence."" I disagree. Though I do reject the notion that transcendence is from "subject" to "object." Instead, transcendence is fr...
you are missing my point and the point of the original post. 1. The very notion of "objective" is rooted in substance ontology, i.e., the subject/obje...
If you live your life as if you have no free will and it turns out you did, that is tragic. If you live your life as if you had free will and it turns...
you seem to be suggesting a necessary connection between the number of choices presented and the degree of free will that someone has. I think some wo...
either C and B are coextensive or they are not. If they are co-extensive, then being allowed to talk about one while not being allowed to talk about o...
then what is the point of discussion? If your response is going to be that you are "certain", then I suppose the rest of us might just as well say tha...
"I don't believe there's anything difficult to it. As I explained earlier, you have a thought that amounts to wanting to type the word "word," and so ...
Finally, after 2000 years of Western Philosophy, we now have a definition. :smile: For me, philosophy is an ongoing discussion over the nature of bein...
If you seem to missing a lot of "ifs". And "if" you were to put them in, then you would have created a great "straw man" argument. Good luck with that...
again, you are in the same circle. I consistently used the word "ALL" each and every time I used the word object. So again: 1. if existence is a predi...
This is the Cartesian issue that never does and never will go away. It is in and of itself the primary argument for rejecting Cartesian dualism. Even ...
