That doesn't explain what it means to be visible. I understand it as just meaning "capable of being seen".

I didn't say that they're projections. I said they we project them onto the independently real things. They're perhaps "inherent" (to some extent) in ...

Epistemological idealists and other anti-realists can accept this, too. Their claim, though, is that the categories and kinds that we are familiar wit...

You're not addressing what's being said. You understand the conceptual difference between perception of real things and dreams/illusions/hallucination...

How can you accidentally have sex with someone? Is it really possible to trip and fall into them, and then out, and then in again? And yes, Hanover, t...

Sure, but we're not comparing Trump to Bill. We're comparing Trump to Hillary. Also, Trump has at least one actual rape accusation of his own – of a 1...

The article I provided explains it:

Wow. Just wow.

Here you go. Also this.

Now you're back to assuming that he's guilty. Perhaps he isn't, and that's why Hillary hasn't done anything about it.

"She belongs in the Oval Kitchen, not the Oval Office".

And if he had better intelligence then he would have better policies and be a better person.

The point that's being made is that those things that we consider to be veridical experiences might actually be as false or as misleading (or however ...

If Brexit has taught me anything, it's to not trust pre-voting polls.

Quality over quantity.

How about we all stop pretending that Britons aren't the greatest people on Earth?

How about we all stop casting aspersions on other people's mental health?

If one person tells me that there are two balls in the bag and another person tells me that there are three balls in the bag then I know that at least...

This doesn't follow. If moral properties are mind-dependent – as anti-realists say they are – then moral propositions can still correspond to moral pr...

No, it doesn't. It only shows that we've been taught to use the same words in the same public situations. We were put in front of an apple and told th...

But that's not what I'm saying. I'm only saying that the way they experience coffee might be nothing like the way you experience coffee.

You're begging the question. We don't know that people routinely see the same things. We only know that people routinely use the same words to describ...

You have no evidence of this. All you know is that they use the same words to describe what they see. What they actually see is the beetle in the box....

That's an invalid inference. You can't go from "we both say that we see a red car" to "we're both having the same kind of experience". It might be tha...

What is experienced is the beetle in the box. All we know for sure is that we use the same words to describe what we see and hear and feel and whatnot...

I don't think it's correct to call value an illusion, although it might be correct to say that value-realism is an illusion. Why must such a framework...

So, what, pain that isn't eternal isn't really pain? Pleasure that isn't eternal isn't really pleasure? Happiness that isn't eternal isn't really happ...

What are you trying to say? That because poets talk about their admiration for some supposed "eternal love" then it follows that there is such a thing...

What does poetry have to do with anything?

I've been wanting to play Versus XIII for 10 years. Shame it turned into XV. Doesn't look as good as the original trailers.

Cruz is probably hoping for this: Donald Trump Headlines Fundraiser to Boost Early Ally Chris Christie. I'm sure he has big bills to pay.

Why? Will a thought and a prayer help?

I played The Last of Us recently. Now that's an awesome game.

Yeah, but what does "The Meaning of Meaning" mean? Also, it's missing: XVII Doing an unkind thing e.g. I am meaning that baby by stealing her candy.

According to this, yes. But, again, I'm not sure what you're trying to say here. There are experiments that demonstrate non-locality and sane physicis...

And yet his experiment closed the freedom-of-choice loophole. So I'm not sure what you're trying to say here. Was he lying? Was the experiment fake?

And I refer you again to Hanson's experiments from last year which demonstrate, according to his testimony, non-locality. Also, there's this: Non-loca...

What about Anton Zeilinger's 2010 experiment? Third Bell loophole closed for photons:

True, but tom claimed that "Quantum field theory is explicitly local. Copenhagen is local. Many Worlds is local. As a matter of fact it has been prove...

Local realism is just the union of locality and realism. Dr Hanson's experiment appears to demonstrate non-locality, which he himself describes as spo...

That's just a case of "God" being a proper noun, naming a particular individual, and "god" being a common noun, denoting a member of a group.

It does support non-locality, as Dr. Hanson says: Non-locality is not the same as faster-than-light communication. I'm sure you know that, which is wh...

I don't know how, but that's what the scientist in charge said it did.

What about last year's loophole-free Bell test that apparently supports quantum nonlocality?

So I'm right to be confused with the claim that these are axioms of the theory?

I'm confused by this. Isn't Bell's theorem supposed to show that 1., 3., and 4. cannot all be true?

So being punched in the stomach is painful but being waterboarded is Painful? And having a massage feels great but having sex feels Great? I don't buy...

Are you sure he wasn't just denying libertarian free will?

I addressed all that at the end: What makes the conventional sense of free will more important than the compatabilist sense? What makes the convention...
