Noncognitive? I wonder what you are getting at here. In so far as philosophy has pretences to rationality, mustn't it be cognitive?

Also, after seeing how @SophistiCat's extension works, it is apparent that it's not just the posts of certain folk I'd like to hide, but the replies t...

A complete truth. It's statements that are true or false. So a complete truth is perhaps the conjunction of all true statements. Is that what you have...

Thanks! The trouble is they still come up in the mentions section. There's so many crap replies I'm finding it hard to locate stuff I wanted to go bac...

Oh, it's not just one. At least a half-dozen. If the Mods don't do their job, let's have modbot do it for them.

I thought there was an ignore list, such that posts from folk on the list became invisible. I would like to try it, but can't find the option. Is it s...

Why would you conclude that?

Hence philosophy is ultimately about eggs and coffee.

In order to point out the error of their ideas.

...ah, the perfect weekend...

Sure. I don't think I suggested otherwise.

Yep - written in a hurry.

There is One True Philosophy? Why should we think that?

So much the worse for philosophy as a set doctrine.

That change might work. Searle used the Chinese room to argue that there was more to meaning than could be captured by mere syntax. A bloke in a room ...

That' s exactly wrong.

It's always a pleasure to see one's thread return from the dead, but this new version is a putrid, festering corpse. From the article cited in the OP,...

After 22 pages...?

Ah, an excellent OP. One puzzle may be that in Wittgenstein meaning is pretty much replaced by use in a form of life; that is, it is not to be separat...

Ah, you've met @"Metaphysician Undercover", then.

I wouldn't mind seeing something a bit more concrete than this obviously self-refuting edict. Have you a proper citation?

The message shown by the Blessed One was clear. However the articulation of it, as given in the OP, is nonsense, as @"Pfhorrest" shows.

An excellent example of Wittgensteinian Silentism. It only goes amiss when "developed into the principle that..."

But not so, eudaimonia. SO either we ignore Aristotle and restrict Ben's discussion to a 'transitory emotion', or you are correct at least int hat we ...

SO let me be even more specific. Your claim is: Far from that, Wittgenstein repeatedly rejected the labels assigned to him, moving restlessly from hei...

No, it is about eudaimonia. Stop being so defensive and consider how much more interesting the OP would be if the title were "Is flourishing a legitim...

I quite agree. The suggestion in the OP strikes me as a conservative misreading. Hence my request for further information, for which we will wait.

Hence my question. I would say Wittgenstein advocated keeping track of the rules one was using, or going against; but not blind adherence to them.

I am asking, can you cite an example of the specific assertion, "Wittgenstein advocated an adherence to social norms in life"... either direct quotes ...

Nothing at all. The term dates from the 1500's. There are important differences between happiness and eudaimonia that are relevant to the OP. - SEP on...

So we need two types of "true" in order to make this work? But moreover, what does "fiction" mean in " kinds of useful fictions" - not true?

Really? Is that true?

Perhaps you meant that they are possible. But you haven't addressed the criticism from Kant, you've gone off on a tangent instead. Your notion of exis...

I don't seem to be able . . . (long hesitation) . . . to depart.

Please, just do some reading. Find out about your topic.

...but many do.

Yep. Think of it as lies for children.
