Right action is the faultless performance of moral (good) action. Morality is a mental construct which has many subjective (personal) and intersubject...

Comparative Religion would be one. I can't help you with that.

Morality (the classification of human events as moral or immoral): 1) Is a human universal. (Brown, 1991) 2) Facilitates the survival of humanity by c...

Fair enough. Obviously, tacit knowledge is not beyond the capacity of AI (e.g., self-driving vehicles, robotic manufacturing, etc). So, I'm surprised ...

Tacit (implicit empirical) knowledge is difficult to communicate because it is only partially codifiable, or uncodifiable. It is processed in an autom...

Thanks for your elaboration, however; I think this conceptualisation is too broad.
September 13, 2019 at 10:21
This agrees with my conception of introspection as the examination of mental events, a type of reflection (examination of experience). How would you d...

It wasn't.

It appears that introspection is frequently confused, or conflated, with metacognition. Knowledge may be based on metacognition and/or experience, whi...

Empirical knowledge, yes. Observation is another good way of gaining empirical knowledge. Both introspection (self-report) and observation have been u...

Of course it is.

Psychobabble.

Can one reason from observation independent of introspection?

I asked you one question in answer to one of yours, here (in case you forgot). As far as "learning anything", I guess it's true what they say about ol...

Does reflection necessarily lead to reasoning? If not, reflection and reasoning are different types of mental events. Could reflection lead to other t...

How is reason (the construction of an argument) related to these types of reflection (examinations of experience)? 1) An introspection: I had a certai...
September 10, 2019 at 11:41
No. Introspection is a type of reflection, which is a type of problem-solving, not a type of knowledge. Why not depend on both? Seems to me they are d...

You presuppose much.

You presuppose it is impossible the bill wouldn't receive Royal Assent without the Monarch refusing assent.

Who said anything about the Monarch refusing royal assent?

Correct. And what happens if there is no royal assent for the extension bill?

And how is Royal Assent obtained in the UK?

That would be a bill, not a law.

The answer to my question is found in your third link. What is Jeremy Corbyn's current condition for agreeing a general election?

How is Royal Assent obtained in the UK? Hint: Is it Parliament, or the Queen's Government, which makes laws?

Time is an actuality.
August 28, 2019 at 16:30
Instead of limiting creativity to original combinations or transformations of actuality, it may be more interesting to explore possibilities.
August 28, 2019 at 14:48
Cheers. That takes the discussion in several more interesting directions.

Awareness is both objective (fact-based) and subjective (value-based).
