Mapping the Medium

So sorry, I didn't answer your direct question. I'm juggling stuff here. It is ontological because at its root it is based on an understanding of 'bei...

I highly recommend reading C.S Peirce's 'The Fixation of Belief'. True, it's not just limited to the US, but it was at a peak frenzy at the time the U...

Thank you. ..... I am not able to respond right now due to obligations pulling me away, but I will. :)

BY the way, Scotus explains free will. Perhaps that will get some attention.

Scotus was brilliant. VERY in depth, and difficult to follow, but his insights were wonderful! He was probably overlooked and difficult to understand ...

Where do you see the differences in Scotus's view?

I want to logically discuss the differences between Thomism and Scotus. I decided I should give this forum one last opportunity to seriously discuss p...

Thank you

So, we want the 'scientific method', which if you know anything about Peirce, we owe much of that to him, and we want the 'pragmatism', which his was ...

I want to clarify that although I highly admire Brian Kemple, I am not a 'Thomist'. I lean toward Duns Scotus. My main reason for joining this forum i...

I am back now. My lack of dialogue is only because I have a very busy life. Thank you for your insight. I am always open to dialogue and learning from...

It's not psuedo-science. It is mainstream, excepted science. Perhaps someday you'll be ready to accept it.

Please refer to the other thread where this is being discussed. It is science, not theory or mysticism.

Speaking of the Islamic world, my pet project now is delving into Henry Stubbe. I recently purchased an amazing written work if his! He is the first t...

It requires going back to Scholasticism and delving into understanding Duns Scotus in detail. I am on my phone now, but you are welcome to watch an EX...

I especially like a video and books by Nessa Carey. Her video explains it so well that I added it to my educational playlist. Just search for her name...

This is precisely where humanity has been misguided. There is a third window. Peirce illuminates it.

It's clear that there is a difference in how America developed this 'thought' compared to Europe, and it makes sense, since individual and religious f...

Thank you for posting it, as I will be avoiding link postings.

I appreciate your willingness to help. I can only say that understanding Peirce's thought is very difficult because it does not align with what is typ...

Imagery, smell, etc. For instance, there is one prominent study showing that when mice are taught to fear a particular smell, their offspring, and the...

As our brain networking develops prenatally, we start creating a 'cognitive map' of our physical and metaphorical environment, creating a scaffold of ...

Again, what am I to say other than nominalism and ontological individualism? Duns Scotus? These are my points. You keep asking me for points. I keep g...

There is nothing more I can say here, as I'm apparently not allowed to post links to the science. Enjoy the back and forth that seems to go nowhere.

Thank you! You are the first person here to logically and intelligently open a thoughtful and potentially fruitful discussion! Your points are good on...

I'm here for discussion and dialogue, not debate. I love learning from others through reasonable dialogue. I wasn't trying to plug my website. If we a...

Perhaps it would be better if I were specifically told what it is I am requested to define. What precisely is it in my responses that is not understoo...

Another non-reader. Geez! I'm beginning to think that this forum is full of opinionated people with 'fixations of beliefs'. Sad.

If it appeases you to take that stance rather than read my posts and the links explaining the biology. So be it. I don't play games.

Not a theory. Please refer to my other post that someone said was too long. There are two links there to the science. I don't like to keep repeating m...

What? Lol.. These contrary comments posted toward me are totally irrelevant.

Science is now starting to understand how the nervous system sends 'messages' of a sort to future generations. How my environment affects me epigeneti...

I do. All I can do is invite you, and I have. I no longer debate these things. I don't have to, or need to. I've been on enough forums to understand t...

It is SOOO very true that most people want to talk about philosophy, the meaning of life, consciousness, and what happens when we die, but only if it'...

Thank you for your insight. :)

This may provide some insight..... An excerpt from episode 4, but to fully understand you need to listen to or read starting with episode 1. ..... If ...

I have found that when someone doesn't understand Peirce, or synechism, they resort to accusations of that nature. I hope you'll decide to learn at so...

Absolutely not.

Hello Brett, I have found that many books written about Jung are kind of all over the place. I prefer to focus on how his work regarding archetypes, t...

I understand your perspective. I hope you will take some time to understand mine.
