So you're saying that the reason you endorse this view over other possible views is that you only value thinking about human relationships/relationshi...
First, "should/should not," "allowed/not allowed" and the like aren't going to be part of traditional logic. Those are normatives. You'd need some sor...
Are you not familiar with direct (aka "naive") realism? I'm not saying I'll agree with every sentence of the following, but these provide some basics ...
So when people use "Canada" to refer to the physical extent of land (and buildings, trees, etc, on it), you just say what, that they're wrong to use t...
Are you trying to say "the fact that there is a thing in a box" versus "the thing that is in the box, conceptually abstracted from that situation, so ...
No, that wasn't obvious to me. I'm not sure what comments you're referring to. When I searched for "human relationship" over the last few pages I didn...
I really can't type more than one sentence with you, or you'll ignore stuff. At the risk of a second sentence, what's the difference between the fact ...
What can it refer to that experience alone can not, if experience is necessarily lived? Just in case that's supposed to be part of the answer, no, I d...
Why are you talking about neglecting experiences in that section anyway? That part wasn't about that. This quote: "You completely ignored that referri...
What? What is the non-lived sense of experience that you'd be referring to there? Let's just solve that first, because this is going way too many roun...
A more important question might be: if we are constructing reality, why did we construct brains so that they seem to only receive electrical impulses ...
West Virginia is still working on it. https://sgcweb.s3.wasabisys.com/roadsbridges/s3fs-public/styles/content_image/public/WV%202.jpg?itok=tXMP2aKG (A...
You completely ignored that referring to experience is referring to something that was necessarily "lived," necessarily processual. It's like running....
First look at the etymology: One thing it's handy for, especially in the context of the scholastic philosophy from which the term emerged, is talking ...
I'm confused at you asking if there's such a thing as religion and then proceeding to explain a cluster property characterization of religions, where ...
That's an abbreviated way of referring to processes one has gone through which were "lived." It just seems like a stupid term, where we're adding word...
That's fine that that's the case for you if it really is. The problem is that just because it's the case for you, it doesn't imply that it's the case ...
Everything, except for maybe elementary particles, supposing there really are any, and imagining that any could obtain in isolation, is, and is thus d...
The reasoning is this: in what way is devising character personality traits, for example, thinking in terms of one of these sensory patterns: visual, ...
On philosophy of perception I'm a direct realist. I don't buy representationalism. You observe the external brick. There's no good reason to believe t...
I use "subjective" to refer to mental phenomena (which again, in my view is a brain functioning in mental ways). "Objective" is the complement of that...
If you think we need to, sure. Re the content being objective, the content of a judgment such as "Frank Zappa is a better composer than Haydn" is that...
So if you believe there are objective judgments, what is any evidence for them? Er wait, later on you're saying that you agree there are no objective ...
Exactly. So we'd no longer be able to peg any particular properties, any particular functions, to any particular part. Chemistry textbooks, for exampl...
Sure, but then this would just amount to, "You're going to have a Visa problem if you don't have a social media account or two that you can reveal." W...
Awareness/consciousness/experience are not taken to be "secondary." They're taken to be real (in the sense of "existent"), physical things, just like ...
There's no way for them to know whether you use social media or whether you're listing any particular names you've used. If they could know that they ...
Societies aren't built on (the work of) politicians. A lot of politicians seem to do little that has practical impact, actually. That's one of the pro...
Yes. I tackle (what I consider to be) one issue at a time when responding. Sometimes people do just mean the land, though. It depends on the occasion,...
If you're merely recording an objective fact, then there needs to be an objective judgment, right? Otherwise you're not merely recording an objective ...
What's wrong is that you're attempting an idiosyncratically gerrymandered distinction ad hoc-designed to support a dubious claim--a claim you're forwa...
Subjective/objective are location terms. Objective things occur in locations other than minds (that is, locations other than brains functioning in men...
Non-human creatures that are capable of valuing things I'd consider people. I wouldn't say that persons are/personhood is necessarily limited to human...
People say "Canada" and refer to the land all the time. When I say "I'm going to Canada," I'm saying that I'm going to a particular physical location ...
