Well, yes mostly. I'm not sure what you mean by lexical, semantic, and structural aspects of language in expressing being, may actually mean? Are you ...

@"Banno", what do you think?

I don't quite understand. Are you talking about the representative theory of understanding? A la, picture theory of meaning?

Evil as much as it can be an expressed sentiment is a disregard for life.

If it floats, flies, or fornicates, rent it.

Is this subjectivism or relativism at its core? Just wondering, unenlightened-dono.

The bird in your avatar is just amazing.

That's pretty scary, no? That people have to think of reasons to love another nowadays. How much of this does it differ from other aspects of psycholo...

I'm not sure. A lot of posters are posting questions about why there are so many flavors of psychology. @"unenlightened", do you know why this is, if ...

Nothing about deontological or consequentialist ethical theories really incorporate the psyche into their analysis. The trolley dilemma neither does i...

I'd like to postulate that it seems to be true that when it comes down to ontological ascriptions in formal languages, with a 1 to 1 relation, then is...

Sorry, but I'm still confused about what you mean by "this has a place".

What do you mean by that?

What do you think, @"Banno"?

And additionally, does the difference between the ontological commitment we make for Alaska or Pegasus only boil down to senses? How is that true?

It seems that another interesting topic related to the heap issue is one of whether the truth or falsehood of applying the bivalence principle to the ...

It isn't so much a attribute, but, an issue of vagueness. I'm not sure if you follow that line of reasoning or care to. And, anticipating Banno, I don...

Here's from the SEP entry, which I've been concerned about as to what a heap constitutes:

This is clearly defined in the SEP entry to be an issue of bivalence for epistemic criteria for what constitutes a heap. https://plato.stanford.edu/en...

No, I think that it makes sense to state that it is phenomenological; but, don't think that's what I'm trying to say. Mainly, when we say that a 'heap...

On a face value reading, it might seem as a context issue. But, I'm not trying to look at this through a lens of preciseness only. I think, it also se...

So, what kind of world does the ontology of a 'heap' inhabit? Purely, "worldly" or phenomenological; because the law of excluded middle wont let both ...

How is it context? I'm no specialist in language theory; but, to me this is such a phenomenon widespread in informal languages, that I don't really se...

I just thought this article might be more useful than me trying to get across the vagueness of these predicates by logic alone. Have at it: https://ae...

Well, I beg to differ. Let's assume that vagueness arises where the law of bivalence is not clearly defined or sharp, for a heap. Therefore, what can ...

An epistemist might ask you a question such as, "Does the Sorites paradox entail a too strict principle of bivalence by (what you call) a prejudice of...

@"jamalrob", I was wondering if we keep the like function, can we get a small font included mention of who liked the post underneath the actual post?

It might seem trivial; but, once you see the vague predicate and assume doubt it instantly becomes a problem rather than not. Such as, 'What is a "hea...

Well, it's a prime example in philosophy, and with my concern over epistemic discursions over criteria I think, it's a really interesting case example...

Contrary to what you are implying, that the use of pile is adequate perhaps by the latter Wittgenstein, I think there's reason for doubt or concern by...

Well, yes; but, the paradox is still pertinent. Asides from that, I understand that "heaps" or "holes" have this vagueness that irritates philosophers...

I haven't read much of Husserl. I do think that intenstion and determination matters. My opinion on the matter seems to be related to what is called "...

We need dislikes, for more shitposting.

Yes, I think so. I believe it makes some sense to mention a square-circle and the idea of a square-circle. Two different things?

Yes, I have been concerned with historicism as of late, as distilled knowledge based on facts. Not sure what more to comment on here. Thanks.
