You are claiming impossible things become possible in a metaphysical framework. Some do; the idea of unicorns existing, does exist. The idea of true/f...
1. 2. 3. My statement is maintained by number 2. There is no rational qualification that removes the contradictory nature of claiming true and false a...
Shooting from the hip here; but do you end up proving the negative as a result. There is now a necessary rule about God's lack of necessity that must ...
Alright, I do appreciate you adopting my organization of your argument. Do you notice how your argument changed slightly in order for it to escape cri...
Do you mean there was a point in our history when emotions were essential? Or do you in fact believe this statement is an accurate description of that...
Here at the end is the part necessary for survival. You have framed the discussion in terms of hard needs and then claimed the emotions accompanying s...
Being subject to an appeal to logic is a matter of intelligence. It denotes the ability to see through emotional appeals that are meant to manipulate ...
Emotions aren't a survival tool that's why some people emotionally shut down or repress in order to navigate extreme stress. So, the question doesn't ...
Useful and interesting; I consider it an achievement. I'm not certain if silentism is a reference to sociological activism or just the general princip...
Did I miss a double spacing memo? In this case it follows the theist and others experience similar effects, but don't ascribe the same meaning to it. ...
The one time I take a moment to avoid serving an undercooked argument. Davidson's quote indicates the experience of the world is evidence of the world...
I didn't for the sake of semantics and I'm assuming as much for the sake of discussion. It's a topic that can derail itself, so chasing every detail a...
Let's start from the bottom up. The last one is a bit of discomfort with the notion that we know God, because of children's stories. It's a matter of ...
It's not coherent at all? There is no way in which we can speak that we can't be misunderstood. Had you considered a generous read? Just for fun? How ...
I think these definitions were more of a church public relations matter. Or the necessary starting point for debating with theist. There are a lot of ...
I get banning the racist and the guy selling books on vague creationism. The 3017 ban seems less obvious from outside the radar room. Thanks for all t...
A problem remains if the question/puzzle is subject to context. If the heap amount has any future purpose or supposed representation of value. You can...
I think you have the core of the matter highlighted. I may have misunderstood the intent, so I don't think bad faith is really in play. "very nearly e...
I think you might have removed some context to create the appearance of inconsistency. In present day measurement 'a standard' is a fixed value. In th...
I want to say Russell specifically demonstrated "it is what it is" as the third law of thought. Which is a bit too ironic. I have never suspected anyo...
Isn't this just Russell's rejection of the basis of set theory. No set contains the set of things that do not contain themselves. Something to that tu...
The idea of "mystery" as it's being used isn't really found in philosophy. I remember hearing it every time I asked one too many questions in a religi...
Using a cubit instead of visual verification highlights the issue in a physical way. The cubit system is based on the measure of one's own arm. As lon...
It's a novelty of a self-referential measuring tolerance. We'd all produce a different cubit if measured to the micron. We'd all be right relative to ...
Looking it over it seems like you would have to ascribe a "will" or at least disposition to a collective mind in order to claim Panpsychism is a type ...
Regarding Panpsychism It seems a bit too coherent to throw in and measure along side the definitions of a Christian God that are usually the subject o...
I'm not a fan of simulation theory because it has a built in infinite regression. But, suppose you wanted to build it; you would have to have some way...
I don't think it's necessary to invent a new material to explain why people think and trees don't in a complex sense. Remove a person's brain and thei...
