The Philosophy Discussion Forum

Heres the whole thing: I think Moyo is trying to have his cake and eat it too because the human consciousness is the loneliest place in the entire universe. We might imagine that an inter-subjective agreement on the identity of an "object" represents some sort of transcendent "truth&q...

I'm back for a bit... I've never met people as slight headed as those on this forum. 1 divided by zero not included. This is what i did. I twisted the flow of this debate so that "being the mindless ..*things* that you are" , you ended up saying what i was saying and i ended up saying what...

lol......coward!

LETS SEE what WE HAVE here :^) Recall that an equivalent realtion partitions a set into equivalence classes. We start of with the cartesian product X = Z X Z* , where Z is the integer numbers and Z* is the integers without "0". We then have an equivalence relation (a,d)R(b,c) iff ad=bc (t...

Hobbes You keep avoiding How is the concept "that which is objective" related to "that which is objective". Explain the relationship. Explain your f****** question! The relationship is that they appear near each other on the page, but are otherwise the same collection of letters...

Hobbes You keep avoiding

better post later

lease, first respond to the post I made above dated: Sat Nov 14, 2015 11:12 am you seem to think i'm making a slight of hand when i talk about meaning. So here is a short reply; meaning happens in minds if objective reality was meaningful it would have to be related to its meaning or, by transitivi...

Hobbes ; i hope you are not doing this on purpose so i will tr yet again.

Can you conceive of something that is not a concept?

Perhaps we could reitterate a previous post of mine If you say you think there are some aspects about that object that dont have anything to do with concepts then that is a lie thinking cannot help but have something to do with concepts. If the thought was about the aspects then those aspects (which...

Meaning is established when two subjects agree. Subject One: I have a concept of tree; I point: "there is a tree!" Subject Two: "Oh yes, that is a tree." Thus "tree" is that object identified by agreement. Therefore "tree" has meaning. It is not more complica...
