Remember Kant for the dualist he admitted to being. As such, empirically, we first sense then cognize then experience an object, but after that, ratio...
Sure it can be done, but then it isn’t the same philosophy. According to Kant, his is the definitive list, even moreso than Aristotle’s, but there are...
I think a decontexualized quale as an intuition. I could get away with calling that a bare perception, as long as I didn’t cross-examine myself too mu...
If perception is the affect of a real physical object on the sensory apparatus, and judgement infiltrates perception, then does it follow that judgeme...
I think we are only able to perceive objects. Order/chaos is a relative quality thought to belong to an object, but not as a property for the determin...
I think perception arises merely from the presence of something to the sensory apparatus. It’s like it just waits around, not doing much of anything u...
Not in the sense of fundamental awareness, I should think. Change presupposes causality, but causality doesn’t rise to immediate awareness, as does, s...
I’d agree with that. But then, in order to justify the concept itself, one has to ask…..what is the irreducible awareness which limits the context, su...
Cool. Bear in mind the examples were superficial. Taking it down closer to the bone, you know just as well you don’t like Brussels sprouts as you know...
I’d call it limitations. One hardly subjects himself to inescapable imprisonment, but one can willingly acknowledge his limitations. In one respect I’...
Sure. Thinking about the doing, and setting the doing to theory, is one thing.The actual doing, in and of itself, as an intrinsic modus operandi, is q...
Mathematics. And because not only are its conceptions created by us, but so too are the objects subsumed under the conceptions. Not the rote instructi...
Yes, I know. But ’s argument is just as valid in its own right. The major difference being, the one, yours, relates to and supports transcendental phi...
You’re both right. There is a priori knowledge derived from extant experience, but in Kant, the stipulation is made that when he talks of a priori kno...
Good onya for the reference. Exactly the one I would have used. Not so good in calling out red and left as things given to us in perception. What sens...
Oh. Well alrighty then. Which state would that be, that relates to the representation of space, and to no other representation in the least? From whic...
Just as the itch requires more than its sensation for the determination of its cause, so too must an object’s relation to you, that it is left or righ...
What would be called today, perhaps, insofar as Innatism, being a rather more psychological formalism, had no standing in Enlightenment metaphysics. N...
“…. The schema of substance is the permanence of the real in time; that is, the representation of it as a substratum of the empirical determination of...
Yes, sure seems that way, donnit? Conventionally speaking, its what Everydayman accepts as the facts. If you’re ok with it….so be it. Me, I reject tha...
Correct, insofar as experience requires perception, and space/time is not an experience, just means neither is space nor time a perception. That which...
Sure. To hold a belief presupposes the something to which it relates. There must be something that serves as the object of the belief, hence the neces...
I’ll disagree with that. Insofar as intuition is a faculty, it must contain its own framework from which it obtains its validity. Knowledge, by the sa...
We’re saying the same thing for all practical purposes, in language two centuries apart. Except for the trust part; that I can’t reconcile with dispar...
YEA!!! Best rendition of the nature of intuition yet, I think. BOO!!! Extracted from a model? To build a model requires information, so, what….informa...
Under the assumption of any form of report by an individual subject, cognitive prejudice is an irreducible level of bias which cannot be eliminated. B...
Why is it, and what does it mean, that know is given two significations here? What do the scare quotes in the one but missing from the other, indicate...
For me, it is self-contradictory. Reason’s conditional proposition just is conceptualized. If there is no conceptualization, there is no mark of reaso...
YEA!! That means I interpreted the title correctly. Or at least, sympathetically. Morality is personal. Objective moralists will indeed disagree with ...
Morality can have a social effect, certainly, but I don’t think that makes morality any less an irreducibly personal condition. Yes I read the OP. Int...
I wanted a better understanding of what you mean by personal morality is just morality. I disagree morality is both personal and social. Morality is p...
I’m going with an unqualified yes, except for sheer reflex or accident. If implicitly yes, as do I, but…..a cow??? And a cow “thinking”. Is that diffe...
You begin with the idea personal morality is just morality. If I begin with the idea morality is personal, would you say we’re beginning with the same...
On second look, perhaps it has. What if it could be said what thought is by what it does? If only this can be done by thinking, then the doing of this...
Transcendental Idealism generally, particularly, with respect to the OP, the first Book in CPR, entitled Transcendental Aesthetic. Don’t hate the mess...
That’s a logical inference, the negation of which is possible, but nonetheless vanishingly improbable. I only know of thinking as something of which I...
No. I’m saying cognitive neuroscience is irrelevant to my self, insofar as even if it proves its point, the fact remains the self does not operate in ...
Yeah, well, they weren’t. When I returned comment, it became so. The mutually beneficial part kinda fell by the wayside because of those damnable conc...
That’s just it: that I think presupposes the means for it, which makes explicit its possibility is already established. That self is its representatio...
To experience self as object requires a whole different set of preconditions then those that affirm that experiencing the self as object, is absurd. S...
I see that such coexistence is not the case, under a certain set of preconditions. Consciousness of self as subject is very far from a cognition of se...
