Re: Is a human being Real?
Veritas Aequitas wrote: “You still have not proven your God or the self-in-itself [survives physical death] exists as real?” ——— Response to V A….. You are claiming it’s impossible for God to exist as real. So my question to you is… does a human being exist for real? Humans are real . An individual...

Re: The Failure of Philosophy
Consider two historical facts: 1. The study of philosophy is at least 2,600 years old. Re: Thales of Miletus (born c. 625 BCE, Siddhartha Gautama (Buddha, c. 525 BCE), Confucius (born 551 BCE). 2. For more than 2,600 years humanity has failed to solve their fundamental problems: World peace, the er...

Re: The Apple Tree
The apple is the tree's ovary. But as usual there's no way of know exactly what you are asking. I'm sure it makes sense in your head. Shame about everyone else's :roll: I'm pondering the nature of my existence, by talking to the idea there is real person pondering it's existence, using the appletre...

Re: The Apple Tree
Apple trees bear apples not trees. So the question is... Is the tree an apple, or is the apple a tree? When does an apple stop being an apple and morphs into a tree, and when does a tree stop being a tree and morphs into an apple? 😵💫 What you are asking about is called 'social reality '. It may be...

A horse went into a bar. The barman asked it what it would like to drink. The horse did no answer him, so he went to serve another customer. When the barman went back the horse had disappeared. The barman asked if the horse was really there. The other customer said " that would be putting de c...

Re: The first valid evidence that god does NOT exist
In entanglement, two particles can be separated by light-years,... What is there light years of, between entangled particles? The answer to that depends on whether you are speaking of Bohm's theory of the "Implicate Order" or that of his "Explicate Order." There is no "spac...

Re: The first valid evidence that god does NOT exist
Empirically, entanglement demonstrates that space does not exist except as a convenient measure of quantity. Really? How does it do that? By demonstrating that two bits of a split particle react exactly the same to the same event. In entanglement, two particles can be separated by light-years, yet ...

Re: The Search for Meaning
Morality is a product of society; in isolation, morality would make no sense. This again is a context that defines. Humanity outside the context of society and culture is a crude beast. How from the net of Indra do you draw this, unless the net itself represents, through its mutual reflections, a m...

Re: Philosophy of Mind
It's an error to conflate 'mind' and 'consciousness'. Mind is all one thing, to be defined as that which is not a substance extended in space and time. Consciousness, on the other hand is not all the one thing ; consciousness takes several forms . What is often taken to be the same as consciousness ...

Re: The first valid evidence that god does NOT exist
...time only exists when there are at least two particles of matter, plus a space between them that can become time. This interstice can be a physical one or a chronological one, but if there's no such interval, then neither can we speak of their being such a things as "time," I would sug...

Re: The Search for Meaning
You need to expand on that, Belinda. I really don't get it. Where man is free to change, all things change, but that he has a duty to change, to whom or to what does he owe that duty? The moral duty of man is owed to himself. Like we owe a moral duty to farm animals to have scope to express their n...
