Husserl had all of this way before Chalmers and everyone else. He called it the hyle.

The problem is ethical dilemmas. Is stealing to feed your family wrong? Is diverting the train from killing one person tied down to the railroad track...

In other words... The aetiological state of affairs based on this abstraction necessitates this abstraction delivering us to the conclusion that this ...

Michael... No one knows jack sh*t about the nature of consciousness or being. This is my position.
August 15, 2018 at 19:37
Initial purpose? Chemicals? Bwahahaha You are in bad faith
August 15, 2018 at 19:34
Prove that the hyle's existence and authenticity is the result of a neural impulse Faith is all you have!
August 15, 2018 at 19:33
You fatalistic, abject muppet!
August 15, 2018 at 19:31
Blah blah blah blah blah. You have way to many false premises for me even to begin.
August 15, 2018 at 19:28
I address the question within this existentiell identity. The aloneness is in the existential identity.
August 15, 2018 at 19:14
@"Ciceronianus the White" @"gloaming" @"Bitter Crank" The point is not one of sollipsism. The point is one of existentialism, a return to oneself. Obv...

Well if you feel you are onto something then you probably are. In any case, every ethics is not perfect or infallible.

DMT is a psychedelic substance, but it is in your brain and functions as a neurotransmitter. You can vaporize it or combine it with an maoi and consum...

I am opposed to a singular purpose and meaning of life as well. Well, yes. John Mill thought the meaning of life was happiness and so he wrote Utilita...
August 15, 2018 at 18:30
Exactly, meaning is to be created, not adopted. There can be no 'objective' absolute meaning or purpose of human life (both terms are conflated but ar...
August 15, 2018 at 15:38
Woah woah woah slow down... An objective fact filtered through human subjectivity... No... The subjectivity would be the fact: there is no objective f...

Trump supporters are the most non-philosophical people.
August 15, 2018 at 07:06
Moralism is obsolete. All there is is ethics. Personally I like the ethics of Levinas or Derrida's Forgiveness if only the forgiving of the unforgivab...

If it didn't show... Doesn't the villain of the animated Pocahontas movie look like Rene Descartes?
August 15, 2018 at 06:18
There is no absolute meaning or purpose of human life. Or to any life.

Trump supporters seem to me the least philosophical people on the face of the planet... Worse than evangelicals.

Not incomprehensible by the one who experiences it.

There is a difference between methodology, principle, characterization, objectivity, etc. and individual psychology. The psychology that I respect the...

ROFL your posts are funny.
August 15, 2018 at 04:48
When you get to that point you simply don't care about anything. What is crazy is it was like rebirth, because I came to grips with my death and I bec...
August 15, 2018 at 04:46
I completely disagree that the purpose and meaning of all life is immortality. This is absurd.
August 15, 2018 at 03:35
No... I mean... If I say, "This tea tastes like grass," and then you taste the same tea and say, "I agree," even though we both agree on this we can b...
August 15, 2018 at 03:26
But if it is bs then this is blind.
August 15, 2018 at 03:12
But these other points of view will inevitably be your point of view.
August 15, 2018 at 03:11
The objective says nothing about truth. It merely acts as truth. It is a transpersonal truth, which is absolutely meaningless. Would you die for these...
August 15, 2018 at 03:07
It is not that a person is objective through a collective. An objectivity is not merely the collective understanding. It is an internal negation of su...

Perhaps you should go deep into the wilderness with a tent for a few days, alone. Or maybe to a mountain. Alone. No technology. Bring food and water a...

@"Posty McPostface" @"Heiko" I was in a relationship with a person whom I loved very deeply. It was the first time I really knew I loved someone in th...
August 15, 2018 at 00:49
Lol!!! Agreed. SBL needs to be diagnosed more frequently.
August 15, 2018 at 00:35
That would be apathy... Which is often a result of the struggle of depression... But does not define depression.
August 14, 2018 at 22:56
And in thinking like that you will never change to experience something different. You will be constantly in the determined configuration of needing s...

I am very reluctant to say that electro shock therapy does anything other than Force one out of their feelings and thoughts altogether. This is not a ...

No one asked you to buy it. No one asked you to completely adopt it. Perhaps you could elaborate on it and tell how it could be false or incomplete or...
August 14, 2018 at 22:33
I could provide a personal example, but I am very reluctant to post my own experiences.
August 14, 2018 at 22:30
I understand your point. But hear me out. Explaining life in terms of 'our everyday lives' implies the following: Who is 'our'? and 'What everyday lif...

Willing it further is the result of the inability to accept the emotion. It is the result of finding more meaning in the emotion, the reference by whi...

It is a spiral out of control for the personality, for the personality which would be a lack of totality in relation to the negative emotions that hav...

Changing away from depression is a realization of benefit. Thus changing from a depression is finding a way it benefits you.
August 14, 2018 at 22:08
Refute me please lol. I don't like the idea of being alone.
August 14, 2018 at 22:06
Yes, agreed! It is not so much an alleviation as it is a stopping of a sinking.
