I think anarchists and marxist rioters are being labelled academic liberals. I assume the position is the assumption that the anti-fascist movement is...
The fact that you are asking this only proves that you know little of Plato and having me 'prove' this to you despite the adequacy of the link to enab...
I will concede to that mostly because you are right in that your interpretation is certainly more easily understood, and because I appreciate that you...
The social contract theory was suggested in the Republic. https://www.jstor.org/stable/4545279?seq=1#page_scan_tab_contents And at least my modern "im...
I can clearly see why you would think that and even whilst writing I knew that the above-mentioned response was likely even with simplistic thought ex...
:D No, you are confusing the subconscious mind with the unconscious mind. Freud discusses three levels of the psyche; the Ego, the ID and the Superego...
I have my concessions of axiological welfarism and though I appreciate that our happiness is exclusive, I fear it may contain characterisations of ben...
No, you are loyal to your country because you are loyal to justice and that would mean what is best for the people within your community who are citiz...
It is not that I have incorrectly applied the term epistemological but rather you yourself have failed to understand the subconscious mind and the str...
That is exactly right, because you are loyal. You are intelligent. You are not inauthentic because the principle, the form of loyalty itself is what y...
Well, this is just faulty logic; you are being disloyal to serve justice for your country when the situation warrants it, but serving justice for your...
Which is perhaps the reason why music itself can arouse this 'movement' as Hegel calls it to enable us passage into our innate or subjective self; one...
Only its not shit, but plutonium. The problem with this type of thinking is that while we dribble about the political show taking place, we fail to ta...
Taking care of yourself is not an easy endeavour and some people are caught in a continuous loop like a scratched record because they refuse to take t...
I am still not confident about such authenticity even when the composer attempts to please oneself as I find that we ultimately possess a social langu...
That's a great point but not just yet; I feel that only once the water is rested I will be able to articulate that experience more creatively, as in, ...
Depression and sadness are two very different situations; I have never had depression, but I have been incredibly sad to a very dangerous point becaus...
Haha, so Eurovision :P But listen, if you want to woo a girl then perhaps that song might just do the trick. But, if you want to woo a real woman with...
Yes, but I didn't realise you did. I'm feeling a tad bit like a crusty dragon right now. :s I am slightly confused as to your position here. I never s...
Subjective experience can quite easily be flawed considering it is subconscious and therefore wrought with little conscious awareness, but it is never...
I understand but your argument seems to rest on the assumption of one playing an instrument or creating music; what of the movement music can inspire ...
One thing I would like you to think about is why it is that you found my remarks against Question objectionable and not my remarks against Hanover? I ...
I find the pythagorean angle tempting but paradoxical and somehow I appreciate Hegel' view that the more we attempt to theoretically formalise music t...
I say, and this may be all talk and no trousers, but isn't that being part-loyal? So, you're part loyal not part loyal, partly? http://i1070.photobuck...
Well, here I must ask for your apology as I certainly either lacked cultural relativism or at the very least was haughty enough to assume that you wer...
Yes, I have purchased introductory books on how to play the piano and have learnt the notes and concepts like octave and scale etc. I always wanted to...
I am aware of that and I am confident that the OP will pursue a life of philosophy whether academically or independently, but what I got from his post...
I don't think there is any problem living with your mother, but it may be for you in the long run and I believe that every person should attempt to be...
Why do you need reassurance? I do think changing the structure of your life is more important, as you say developing better work ethic and study habit...
Que? :-O Well, I'm not that advanced yet to simply improvise and I believe my insincerity lies with the fact that I am learning other people' music ra...
You can't be part loyal. Loyalty is a choice, an expression of your moral position and so what you are saying is no different to what I said; by choos...
Years ago in the old thread I organised for Paul both David Chalmers and Graham Priest to visit and answer questions, but it was rather pointless beca...
From a Kantian perspective, perhaps that may be viz. the relation between reason and sensibility but I find myself questioning why - when I become con...
The only thing the test is doing is exposing our failure to separate politics from our moral - personal - values; the only political system necessary ...
It is not necessarily rearranging but rather when one transcends to a moral consciousness that is individual and free, their emotions transcend along ...
So then, why is there a panel "conservative" "liberal" etc &c., that comes along with it? Blimey, you know my feelings on this subject and I do agree ...
Far out, some days I'm half dead especially after spending the day at the beach. By mid-afternoon, I wish everyone disappeared and I could be left alo...
How is my chastity politically relevant? I choose not to sleep around and I choose to wait until I meet a genuine love, but that is my choice and no o...
And you probably never will. I think for the most part we just dream incoherent nonsense because it is at cognitive level necessary, but on the rare o...
It probably might be, but whether or not it is better, it is still flawed. What on earth is purity? I think this was an attempt to connect your moral ...
Agreed. Even the very first question when I decide whether something is right or wrong, do I consider it relevant whether or not someone conformed to ...
Taking a disparaging position by labeling leftists as 'children' to justify superiority in your political world-view does not legitimize it only becau...
