I think this is something we should be more concerned about that adaptation. We can only step forward confidently once we appreciate what happened bef...
That is a cultural problem more than a 'school' problem I would say. Symptoms of a deeper underlying problem. I do not accept that 'guns' are the main...
Generally speaking I think parents assume the part they play in how their children turn out is vastly overestimated. That is not to say that parenting...
The fault likely more with me here. I guess I was trying to say something that appears quite tangental to this thread and I am still far from the leve...
I think we can both agree that a formal tone is required in order to present a sense of neutrality? If one attacks an argument that is fine, but such ...
Read the exchange with I just had with Banno. You do need to understand the issue of Supervenience though in relation to Mental States/Identity. I thi...
Will answert to rest, just gotta dash to work in 5 mins. Anyway, no. I was pondering a thought and it wondered over into thinking about how we appreci...
Actually the main difference is where in 100 yrs time someone watched the video, read the journal or simply knew someone climbed a mountain and no mor...
In terms of the frequency of how we use different tenses. There is evidence that it effects foward planning. None. I was considering this more broadly...
The exact same point can be argued for Venus as Evening and Morning star. The Planet remains the same physically, other than relative daytime position...
This is exactly where Davidson's regard for mental causation breaks down. He even admits himself that there is a discrepency between the phenomenal-de...
As long as honesty is not mistaken as bad manners I generally agree. Meaning, I would rather someone was honest and impolite than polite and trying to...
It has been shown that our use of tense in language does influence how we appreciate time and plan ahead. Whether more detailed media sources provide ...
The example shows a logical case. Much like with the Trolley Problem the likelihood of the situation arising is not that important. It is the unlying ...
Or, as I just stated, a genuinely original piece that just so happens to look identical to the other piece (maybe two artists even name the painting i...
There is the direct logical view of viewing this as a double negative too, or assuming the a fake fake, a fake, or a fake fake fake fake, are always F...
My point was that this can mean different things as how the meaning is interpreted is not set in stone. A fake fake could be something that is origina...
I guess this is part of a discussion in another thread. There is the experience of making Art and the experiencing if Art. With a replica I am still e...
Is that Artistic Value though? i would say no. As an object of Art there is a further arguments to be had ... If it was literally #D printed top teh a...
Agreed, to a point. I think I would say 'practical' with a bit more force. If the physicality of a painting is primarily what matters (and I would arg...
Exactly. I am sure everyone has heard of the analogy taken at the atom level too where a painting is replicated down to the atomic level? If we then a...
You are missing the point. Husserlian Phenomenology is not at all concerned with material existence as it is focused on the experience of consciousnes...
This is precisely why I favour Husserl's approach to a science of consciousness. He was not at all concerned with the 'existence' of physical objects ...
Because you are obsessed with not being labelled a Physicalist when I am not labeling you as a physicalist. Every post you seem to do this. I am label...
For those actually interested the Causal issue here is a snippet from Davidson expressing something akin to what I am getting at: From Mental Events b...
Misrepresetnation of what is being said. and again. They are not 'ideologies'. Such is to adhere to a form of Idealism. People on philosophy forums do...
Property Dualism in a nutshell? It does get confusing when people use differing terms to describe the same idea. Another example would be physicalism ...
In regrads to the problem at hand you are expressing an idea contingent to physicalism. That is a VERY broad category though. Regarding this particula...
Life expectancy has gone up and your book sales have gone down. Is this why philosophy has falied, because you cannot sell your book!? :D Why you are ...
To be fair it is quite a subtle problem and many people miss it. @"Philosophim" Perhaps this will help show the difference? If you hold an Eliminativi...
No. I think not. The problem is I have articulated why twice. If you hold to there being a difference between Properties of items under discussion AND...
Look it up. I am not stating you hold this rigidly (at least I hope not). The point is you need to understand the counter arguments involved. I am not...
The label not wanting to be owned here is Physical Eliminativism. @"Philosophim" does not believe there is a Hard Problem. Daniel Dennett is another e...
This is the problem for Substance Dualism. As I also demonstrated the same kind of disjoint appears for Property Dualism where we hold to physical red...
No. I meant them as both Physical the naming can change to suit you if you wish though. So Physical States supervene on Brain States (or whatever you ...
And focus on the above well-known argument is that if we assume a different kind of something then we are met with a problem of not being able to unde...
There is no logical reason why there may not be two substances (Substance Dualism). In terms of Property Dualism you seem okay with this as you say it...
