So you cannot differentiate Man from "man-made structures"? :roll: Btw, cite a single case of a "man-made structure" that is separate from nature – un...

All horizons are "unattainable", and yet – The obstacle, Smith, is the way forward. Amor fati – imagine Sisyphus happy! :death: :flower:

No question (philosophical or otherwise), just your (mis)reading of speculative essays by a novelist-dramatist. So why start a new thread?

Pandeism, like natural science and unlike anytheism, is not "faith-based" but is a 'story' that's most consistent (so far) with all of the known physi...

:roll: Genetic fallacy. Also, human nature is separate from "nature"?

So, a non-epistemic "true or false"? :chin:

Problem of the criterion – you're aware of it's significance?

Yours, of course; not mine, sir.

Gnomon's famously – Dunning-Kruger? dogmatically New Ageist? – incorrigible on this point.

As far as I'm concerned, you've not "proved" anything yet, gmba.

The statement is not a contradiction, it's conceptually incoherent (i.e. not even false).

Instrumentalist? Neo-pragmatist? ...

Interesting (I guess 'analytical') approach. :chin: No doubt true of cataphatic "anti-metaphysics".

No, because we cannot "know anything absolutely". What does "know ... absolutely" even mean? We're not absolute beings with the absolute perspective s...

:roll: Isn't that still solipsism? As I point out, whether god or my ego, only that "self" is real to itself.
