No... clearly not. What a simple statement and it is full of fallacies. Truth can’t be the same across the countries. It is impossible because it is a...

Yes... but we should to figure out what the book says because it is translated from Ancient Chinese... You can’t have an opinion of Tao if you do not ...
August 07, 2021 at 06:54
Not necessarily... it is a big debate what “Tao” means. It depends a lot which book you have in your hands. My book version speaks about Tao as the “P...

Of course, we will do so. It will depend in our incomes and the purpose of use that robot. But, who knows? Probably these robots will have some rights...

Just to share another reference related to this thread with you: the electromagnetic spectrum. Interesting! Isn’t it? Consider “yellow” as one of the ...
August 06, 2021 at 21:00
Sorry. Mi fault for sharing it, I thought it could be interesting.
August 06, 2021 at 20:30
True! I defend why this article is important and I enjoyed with a quickly review. I will read it deeply later on. It is interesting how modern studies...
August 06, 2021 at 17:44
Agreed :up: :100:

Thank you for sharing this article, it is so interesting and it reminds me and feel nostalgic about John Locke's empiricism. Even the article stars sa...

If I don’t do so I die of starvation... see how weak we are. True. It is not necessary being so pessimistic because it can be unhealthy. I think insid...
August 06, 2021 at 14:04
I think this argument is twisted. We can't give this level of value or awareness to something as subjective as "black". If John is black is due to our...

Interesting argument indeed. It is true that the queen only can move according how the rules are established but this is just a basic axiom to pursue ...

Food is so necessary to our lives that we have to pay some money to get the average calories per day and then have the body ready. But, there are some...

:up: :100: They impacted me exactly in this way. I guess this happened because I read some of Kierkegaard when I was having a difficult period of time...
August 06, 2021 at 06:24
Good question. To be honest, I would not pay anything to “not suffer” because probably this emotion is one of which makes us so original (Kierkegaard)...
August 06, 2021 at 05:20
These were so interesting to read. It comes to my mind two different points of view: Søne Kierkegaard (the concept of anxiety) and Schopenhauer (his c...

August 06, 2021 at 04:11
:rofl: :death: That's a pretty Kierkegaardian point of view but I am agree because life tend to be pity and dreams are just dreams.
August 05, 2021 at 21:13
I was skeptical about this news but after reading this: I changed my perception. Yes, I am happy that amount of money lands on wisdom and responsible ...

Already read it. Thanks for the link, I understand it better now :up:
August 05, 2021 at 18:42
Check this out, I guess you would like it because is so related to your question. Is That a Fish in Your Ear? Translation and the Meaning of Everythin...
August 05, 2021 at 17:16
Interesting text indeed and thanks for your translation. I like Taoism so for me is welcome bringing up on the table some debates related. I defend va...
August 05, 2021 at 16:33
Why the zero appears in your formula? Is it related to “transfinite” concept ?? I think I didn’t get your argument because I am guessing that transfin...
August 05, 2021 at 16:11
Agreed :up: To be honest I guess that kid asked “where the edge is located” so randomly without any base. Probably the child saw it in TV or a book pr...
August 05, 2021 at 13:32
To be honest, I think they still be morons :lol: sometimes I don’t even understand some Nobel laureates (at least in literature). There are a lot of g...
August 05, 2021 at 08:03
Oh my fault! Thank you for explaining me both concepts are different :up:
August 05, 2021 at 08:00
Instead of consider Einstein as a scientific, we should consider it as philosopher of relativism. This only could fit to understand all the paradoxes ...
August 05, 2021 at 07:10
Yes you are right. There are not articles from Ravitch connected to this thread. There is only one article published here: Springer link. I found rela...
August 05, 2021 at 05:49
Banno, we are talking about Harold Ravitch in the other thread, so why not put this on the table? :rofl: Knowledge and the principle of luck by Harold...
August 05, 2021 at 05:45
Harold Ravitch, in his own opinion about Gödel, after finishing the dissertation, wrote this: I guess (just my simple opinion) that Gödel was transfor...
August 05, 2021 at 04:56
I think the important fact here is about omission. When you are forced to choose between X, Y and Z previously you made a decision which lead you in t...

Probably you could be interested on reading this article: Madrid plans urban forest. Despite the fact Madrid is the second city of the world with the ...
August 04, 2021 at 16:03
Completely agree. Good point :up: :100:
August 04, 2021 at 11:21
Good question. I guess it depends a lot of how are the parents. Sadly, we live in a very selfish/dangerous world so I think is not so profitable to th...
August 04, 2021 at 11:20
I thought exactly the same :clap: :lol: Interesting argument and point. What we are talking about here reminds me a lot from Aristotle's syllogisms, b...

Update: he retired from teaching in 2019. Look: https://www.coursicle.com/lavc/professors/Harold+Ravitch/ So, for more than 50 years he was a teacher....
August 04, 2021 at 07:15
Thank you and welcome :up: Despite the fact Ravitch quotes a lot of interesting teachers or PhD’s, the language and technical paragraphs are so comple...
August 04, 2021 at 07:07
Good question! I also would like to download my posts as a PDF file or something related.
August 04, 2021 at 04:49
:up: Reading deeply the dissertation, Ravitch wrote that the main goal of Gödel was “believing in the existence” of realism (thus, mathematics). But, ...
August 04, 2021 at 04:23
Interesting! Because according to Ravitch, who made this dissertation, he referred and applied Russell’s and Poincaré’s solutions of circle paradoxes,...

I haven’t revisited it since then neither! Herman Hesse was a big influence when I started in philosophy as beginner in my school. I remember my teach...
August 03, 2021 at 09:45
This book is so good :up: I read it when I was 18 years old and changed my life for good. What a good writer Herman Hesse was.
August 03, 2021 at 09:30
The idea of self for me depends a lot of what Descartes developed as “cogito ergo sum”. If I think and I am able to reasoning, myself exists. That’s w...
