I agree. I felt the same when I read it. Furthermore, the fact that Austin seems ambiguous to me usually. I think it is not about ignoring 'evidence',...
I agree, and what a good phrase. I think what you typed is very intelligent. Philosophy allows us to keep going beyond the limits of our knowledge, an...
Mate, no! We should not be rude to Russian folks, for two main reasons: 1) they are excellent chess players; 2) the Brothers Karamazov are actually fr...
I fully agree. But... I don't get your point here. What do you mean 'regressive' when you compare existentialism with religion? You want to mean that ...
:cool: Cringy? No, mate. You look like the most intellectual boss using emojis. Some examples... Where the hell is Clarky? :eyes: Jamal said that mayb...
Correct me if I am wrong please, but it seems to me that you interpret Austin from a scientific perspective, and not from a philosophical point of vie...
Dear Ludwig, thanks for your analysis and argumentative explanation. I really appreciate it. On the other hand, I beg your pardon if you think that my...
Well, it is obvious to highlight that an example of a 'successful' state is Japan. I personally think that Australia, New Zealand and the North Europe...
It is true that they have a big issue with unhappiness and suicide ratio. But these factors should not affect the fact that Japan is a prosperous coun...
Well, it doesn't surprise me that Austin embraces empiricism roughly. I read from other users who took part in this thread that, if we want to try to ...
I admit that it is not one of his best works, but I think it is emotional how both friends get along. They don't have brothers, and in that period and...
I think Austin roughly consider them, at least that is what I interpret on the page 61 when he states: Good point. What we have to take as granted is ...
Yes, this one was interesting and you raised a good question. I will try to develop an answer and make an attempt to interpret what Austin wants to me...
Thanks for your substantive and instructional response. I was lost, but now I think I am getting closer to the basic concepts which are the object of ...
I personally think that it is invalid because it is simplistic, and it doesn't prove too much. But I don't want to get deeper in this specific premise...
I know this thread is about Austin, but when you mentioned me saying: There is a part in this (very small) lecture where he addresses 'real' and 'real...
It is a very small lecture, indeed. I think the best I can do is to share the quote entirely. Yet, I read his points because he was quoted in another ...
Yikes! And we have folks like Banno who attempt to plant eucalyptus everywhere! I can't believe that the desertification of my country will be caused ...
I agree. Basically, I think that reality does exist objectively. At least, there has to be something which exists at all. Because if we conclude that ...
Good point, I tried to share the same thought as you did previously when I attached a brief PDF of Richard A. Fumerton. I think this author points out...
I agree, some folk just plant trees where they want to without any previous planning. It is our fault and not eucalypts. Now, if some want to remove t...
Hey, thank you so much for your kindness for sharing the paper with us. This thread is very interesting, and I am grateful to the users who share comm...
Good try! But no. Eucalyptus trees are likely to lead to desertification in the country. We made the mistake of planting some eucalyptus - a tree whic...
Interesting. It reminds me of this: §9. Hallucination and Truth Basically, Richard Fumerton argues that 'the possibility of hallucination' proves that...
You were using irony too! Oh my goodness, I am so stupid. I promise I thought you were speaking seriously about slang words. You folks do not use emoj...
Kapish! :up: Kapish means cappicci. Thus, it means 'agree?' It is fun to share slang words in The Shoutbox. Hanover made a good effort to write into S...
I think I have to get used to your irony. It is complex because you guys do not use emoticons. But, if I am not wrong, turpentine is actually a solven...
Oh my goodness! The dingo is a wolf - or similar to a coyote -. I thought the dingo was a domestic dog in the first place. Now, I understand all the w...
Dogs can be unpredictable usually, but I doubt that the dingo would act dangerously with kids. This can only happen if the dog received bad treatment ...
Oh my goodness, the guanches! I thought they would never be the subject of comments on TPF because it is a main specific thing about the history of Sp...
I agree, and furthermore, that both tragedies are not part of the same story tellers. I bet the victims and tragedy of Israel will be the main plot in...
Hello Bob, What you argue is pretty interesting, but I don't know to what extent you accept or deny the existence of things-in-themselves. On the othe...
They started to use their propaganda to brainwash the people. I bet we will see a lot of Hollywood films regarding this conflict too. It is important ...
There it is! It is a masterpiece, yes. When I was a kid, I used to watch more than nowadays, on 'Cartoon Network' if I am not wrong... Tim Burton is a...
I am starting to think that maple syrup is like an elixir, and my health is at risk if I do not have some in my kitchen. I thought the pumpkins were t...
It means: Portugal (P) Ireland (I) - but this country is now doing everything well, so it is no longer included - Greece (G) and Spain (S) This acrony...
:snicker: I thought it was a joke on 'false friend' words in the first place! All my family roots come from Castile and Basque, so there is a great po...
Thanks for the advice. :up: Frankly, I thought about cooking the squashes with potatoes in the first place, boiled or baked. But the recipe provided b...
I wanted to explain before that this is the main cause why maple syrup is hardly seen here, because we tend to consume honey instead. But then, I thou...
