Exactly... Knowledge is the real rubbish.

How could a knowledge establish anything other than that premised upon a HUMAN knowledge? Unless, of course, knowledge is based on a divine metaphysic...

If a metaphysics always presupposes an epistemology then an epistemology always presupposes a metaphysics.

Knowledge is at base abstraction. Knowledge boils down to a characterization of what it is to be human, not of what anything else is. "Never believe a...

But aside from Gettier... If I know that I felt something. Is that knowledge so because I have a justified true belief of it or because I know that I ...

Case one implies that the proposition was true not by virtue of a justified true belief, and that he had knowledge of what would be the outcome, but n...

My idea, as you can see, is that consciousness does not really belong to the individual existence of man but to his community or herd nature; that, co...

It as absolutely absurd to think that without consciousness there still exists anything. Consciousness is uncreated. Billions of years is what? Too an...

And what is this ontological priority of the 'laws of nature?' I assume you are saying that the laws of nature have a primacy over being-in-the-world?...

And if nothing was there to acknowledge this abstraction of 'rock' it would too still exist? Absurd

An image is created by the mind... So the body creates the world. So you espouse fatalism?

"The illusion of worlds behind the scenes..."

And what of the Gettier problems? JTB is not infallible.

I am aware of Russel's distinction. But my own infinite regress in my own analaysis of this... I cannot be sure it is the result of a lack of a distin...

The act of presupposing does not necessitate an I am. This is the Cartesian illusion. It is so because it does not incorportate intentionality, and ju...

Is thought interchangeable with expression? Thought is itself an expression? Or is thought prior to expression? It seems thought can be a sort of expr...

I am essentially between idealism and realism, having premised my epistemology upon intentionality; the fact that consciousness is always consciousnes...

It is perhaps hard, but thought is apart from language. If thought is defined as activity of consciousness then not all thought is language. If one th...

So this epistemology is one of realism? Does not an object exist for me? How can it be said to exist in itself as a chair apart from the intentionalit...

In the case of NDEs ... I have had one. Objectively I was still alive. A consciousness that is independent of being-in-the-world is absurd. I maintain...

What use of language could determine subsequent thoughts, when it is thought itself that determines the use of language? Thought cloaks itself in lang...

But what is a natural law or motive, as it relates to human intention?

Dasein is his idea; the being that has being as a question. Dasein has as an existentiele being-in-the-world as well as thrownness, ahead of itself, c...

What constitutes a 'natural motive'?

My name is Noah too btw. And in a nutshell, though it is off topic, I see your picture of Heidegger. So... What is the meaning of being?

The importance of myth* in public discourse... There is no importance of 'God' anywhere. Is God willing to prevent evil but not able? Then he is not o...

What about counting? Counting is thought. Knowledge of counting would be consciousness of counting. In order to count there must be a faculty that cou...

Why would a knowledge of thought and belief require language?

Thinking about thought and belief requires nothing other than consciousness. Language could be whatever a person defines it to be. Furthermore, langua...

What would a knowledge of thought and belief be?

Knowledge of thought and belief... Is that possible?

Knowledge is not dependent on thought... And language is akin to a technology. There is a mechanism of thought for those whom have never learned langu...

Origin of truth: Old English tr?ewth, tr?owth ‘faithfulness, constancy’ That is the definition I am referring to.

I've read your introduction. What does 'existentially dependent' on 'us' mean? Who is us? Is this idle talk? Physiological sensations... These things ...

Money is a means to an endless end, and therefore it is the focal point of 'work' and 'resources' as if work and resources are endless. This is the il...

I have been led to think that one can not know by virtue of knowledge alone... And therefore knowledge has absolutely no primacy over being... Being i...

"A method of understanding truth," is knowledge. And thus there must be a truth of knowledge. If this truth of knowledge is absolutely incapable of be...

It doesn't matter if it has several different uses. I am using it in an easily understandable sense.

I'm not talking about some sort of Truth as in divine... Ideal of truth. If something is... A word for instance... A bird... What is the truth of a bi...

But it must be something specific, for it is itself something... Are you saying it is fragmented? Then what would knowledge be then? Knowledge would b...

So truth represents nothing specific... But it does in the case of knowledge. For what could be the intentionality of a consciousness of knowledge oth...

... Knowledge consists of an endeavor to truth. Perhaps I am speaking too generally? Knowledge seeks truth or to establish truth or to characterize th...

The word reflects a truth does it not? The Truth of Truth is something. What is it?

If truth is, then what is the 'is'?

How do I do that? I am new to this forum.

Does it have a being of its own? If so, is that being ascertainable? Is it at all? Or does this fall under an ontological argument?

What is truth?

I agree that a materialistic 'worldview' enslaves and is essentially fatalistic.

Very fatalistic you are
