Try? That's hilarious. As if it's impossible to discard. Read my threads. Nah. I reject it based upon my own knowledge of all human thought and belief...
The question(implied) was about the referent of the name "pure reason". To what are you referring? What is the criterion/definition of "pure reason" t...
It either did or it did not. I strongly believe that it did. I know what naming practices require. I know what discovery requires. If things did not e...
The problem was that statement about the meaning of Shakespeare's works being in his head. That's just not the case, and we know that beyond a reasona...
Glad I saw this. Last I looked it read differently. "Mt. Everest" picks out a particular mountain. That mountain existed in it's entirety prior to bei...
That's a different question entirely. A reductio ad absurdum is not about the person guilty of holding belief that leads to such. Rather, it's about o...
Some implies more than one. Somehow implies more than one way for time to be dependent upon an observer. "No. No. No." applies to one kind of dependen...
That doesn't work. Here's the question again... Substitution leaves us with "How do we know Mt. Everest to be the case?" That question doesn't make se...
Whoa... You asked, "How do we know that to be the case?" Please set out the referent for the term "that". I'm trying to answer the question. I want to...
That's the only starting point. I've expressed my own well considered opinion regarding the purported lack of means. We have a means. Language use. No...
Yup. It seems necessary to have them once again... I'm a bit puzzled by the second part. If it is the case that Mt. Everest existed in it's entirety p...
It's a living organism that has some form of rudimentary physiological sensory perception. You tell me. I'm just trying to delineate. I'm not feeling ...
Mt. Everest existed in it's entirety prior to it's discovery. A galaxy millions of light years away would exist regardless of whether or not we know a...
If one wants to know what it's like to experience X, one must know what all experience has in common. It is only knowledge of that sort that allows on...
Actually it's spot on. There's a couple of different perfectly acceptable ways to characterize the claims you've been making. I think there's somethin...
That's what I aim to find out for myself, with a little help from you. I personally do not think it makes any sense at all, let alone common sense... ...
Two questions... What are logical forms taking account of? Would you agree that "that which exists in it's entirety prior to common language" is a cat...
Here's my problem... well, not mine so much a the one I'm pointing out yet again. It pertains directly to the OP... Let us for a moment consider wheth...
As if I'm obligated to answer for issues you've raised that have nothing to do with my position... Happy modeling! :smile: ---------------------------...
There is self contradiction resulting from equivocation. The equivocation is regarding the term "racist". In particular, the criterion for what counts...
There is more than one acceptable sensible conventional sense of the term "categorical error". It is a name with more than one referent. The one will ...
I re-read the exchange. I understood it. I didn't so much disagree with you. Rather, I found that it was rather incomplete, in that you offered choice...
I would agree. The trick is to acquire reasonable ground for establishing the criterion used to determine which ones ought be excluded. Could you set ...
Indeed, although being born into a shareable world is a better starting point. Language makes it shared. The result, of course, is that the world is a...
We have before us now, a listing of categorical errors... Which ones will be used to render judgment upon whether or not a premiss of our choosing qua...
So... what is a biological race such that one could conflate it with ethnicity and in doing so qualify for being racist? You've never answered this qu...
So, we agree that fleshing out the premisses supporting one's conclusions is key. Based upon the latest exchanges, I'm curious about what you're refer...
So, we must surely abandon Kantian language here. For anything that exists in it's entirety prior to our naming and descriptive practices qualifies fo...
Having pain is the experience. I have direct access to having pain of my own, and I have indirect access to another's. There are two kinds of accessib...
This bit began with my pointing out that identifying the premisses is key. You agreed, then remarked that it is often the case that there is an unreco...
I cannot speak for Banno, but I think his invocation of the view from everywhere leans on the inevitable social element of language that all views hav...
That which is common to all views. <-------That's what I'm fostering. None of the proposed attitudes above are inevitable as a result of pursuing such...
Gettier needs for Smith to believe that someone else will get the job. He doesn't. He can't. Rather, Smith is justified in believing that he will, and...
