There are no pure emotions. Emotions are not isolated processes, separate from the rest of mental activity. Their dynamics are intertwined with those ...
All right. Emotions are evolutionarily beneficial. They provide some mechanisms for survival and adaptation to the environment. But they can also be h...
And this? I put this quotation some days ago. You have a poor memory. (Underlining is mine). To lead irremediably and directly to error means to be wr...
"More" phenomenological? Is Aristotle phenomenology? Heidegger explicitly says that the ordinary interpretation of time derived from Aristotle does no...
What is left out is the level of ontology, Being, the understanding of Dasein's main constituents: temporality, care, anticipatory resolution, history...
You're right: I don't know what you're talking about. Not Heidegger, of course. "There is no worse blind person than the one who does not want to see"...
As you will understand if Heidegger's entire defense consists of his brilliance, according to Xtrix, the thing does not impress too much. Would you ha...
Some quotes from Being and Time. As you can see, there is a " right" explanation of time. What is the wrong one? Here it is clear, that which starts f...
Nor have I seen any words from Heidegger about the influence of cultural background on phenomenal perception. You have spent many years reading Heideg...
It is assumed that children have no use of reason. The age of reason, you know. What poses a sharp problem: In what age begins the age of reason? Ever...
I'm sorry I'm late, but I can think of something that could unlock the debate. The first thing to do in the face of a morally complex case is to make ...
Your concept of consciousness is too strange and not very useful. Psychology usually only includes thoughts and experiences that are explicit to the s...
You turn the discussion upside down so much that one ends up not knowing what one is talking about. First of all, in contemporary psychology and philo...
Heidegger rejects as inauthentic the Aristotelian concept of time and what he considers its derivation in the vision of time lived by common sense. It...
The exaltation of selfishness is in sight. It is called "neoliberalism". Consequence: the destruction of the social bonds that allow to resist the fac...
In my opinion, Heidegger does not pretend that time forms an undifferentiated unit. The three ecstasies cannot be con-fused. What he affirms is their ...
"In describing something, there is thinking and concepts involved. To argue this is "theory" is misleading. It is simply a common way of understanding...
Note: I mean with theory a system of ideas intended to explain something. Heidegger's work is a complex and confusing theory about being, time and the...
"What you claim is "perception," isn't." "No one is proposing a theory, certainly not a "subjective" theory." Heidegger: B&T: " The future is not late...
"Reading Heidegger is not easy. I've found I've had to read several books, several times. Best to avoid secondary sources at first and make sense of i...
"And why is that important?" Of course, it is! I'm talking to my father about my mother. My father is here. My mother is not here. She is dead. I wish...
" If you're arguing that "subjective" time is a sequence of nows, of a future being not-here-yet and a past being no-longer-here, etc., then what you'...
"...future does not mean a now that has not yet come, but a coming in which Dasein comes toward itself in its ownmost potentiality -of-being. " This i...
It is very simple. "His valid reasons for "changing" the common usage of the word "time" is partially based on this new analysis, and partially based ...
"I've gone over this several times as well." My memory is bad and I don't remember you doing what you say. Can you repeat any of those valid reasons? ...
If you don't quote any valid reason you are blocking the discussion. "So you stick with Aristotle" I do not adhere to anyone. I am affirming the commo...
He does not destroy anything. He changes the common sense of a word without giving a valid reason. When he speaks of temporality he is speaking of som...
An absolute skeptic would think this conversation be absurd. I'm not talking. I have no absolute proof that you, my computer, the chair, etc. exist. T...
There is not a single branch of knowledge, except the formal sciences, that seeks absolute knowledge. Each of these branches has its criteria to disti...
I suggest that you read the context of the texts I have provided. In any case, in the two texts I have provided, temporality is impied by means of fut...
This is only true if you are talking about absolute knowledge. If you low the bar, you should consider the reasons I have already given in the previou...
Absolute certainty, no. I believe that all people have the powerful natural intuition that the things we perceive correspond to something real. Scienc...
How do you know that the screen of a TV is not the screen of a photo camera? Answer: because they work differently. The question: How do we know that ...
Sorry, you know the real world is not a dream because it doesn't have the characteristics of a dream. In a dream you walk on a street in a different w...
There is no absolute reason to choose the real world instead the dream world. All the reasons I have suggested here are reasonable and common sense, b...
I think so too. Dreams are on the edge of consciousness. That is why they can be directly caused by an external event. A loud noise can make us dream ...
Ley us see: Two things are clear here: There is an authentic and an inauthentic temporality and both are based on "futural”. But what temporality mean...
If you are a materialist you will say that everything that happens is part of matter and that dreams are nothing but brain activity. Okay. But what dr...
Hey, what language do you speak? I'm just saying that because of the accent. I hadn't thought of comparing Hegel to a potato chip, but sometimes Heide...
What is pure perception? An intellectual vision, since it is pure. But there is nothing in Parmenides that suggests contemplation in the sense of intu...
