Because I know that to be the case.Terrapin Station wrote: ↑Mon Mar 15, 2021 5:22 pm Why did you write: "Time is not ontological. Time is epistemic."
I am making a claim about my own epistemology. I hope you don't mind?

So that's a claim. If it's extraordinary, doesn't it require extraordinary evidence?Skepdick wrote: ↑Mon Mar 15, 2021 5:23 pmBecause I know that to be the case.Terrapin Station wrote: ↑Mon Mar 15, 2021 5:22 pm Why did you write: "Time is not ontological. Time is epistemic."

I have the extraordinary evidence. Right here. In my own head.Terrapin Station wrote: ↑Mon Mar 15, 2021 5:27 pm So that's a claim. If it's extraordinary, doesn't it require extraordinary evidence?
You have a problem with that?

Of course it's sufficient.Terrapin Station wrote: ↑Mon Mar 15, 2021 5:32 pm So it's sufficient to just know it to yourself and not share it?
Why do you think you get to decide my sufficiencies?

What goes on in my head is none of your business.
What you think goes on outside of your head. That's the business of Philosophy.
If you claim that time is ontological, show us what you paid for when you wasted time/money on that PhD of yours.

Correct. It's my business and my business only.Terrapin Station wrote: ↑Mon Mar 15, 2021 5:43 pm Right, so according to you, what goes on inside your head isn't the business of philosophy.
And if you don't like it... suck a fuck. Dumbass philosophers are not welcome in here.

You believe that beliefs are non-causal. Beliefs and actions are different things.
So why do you even care what I believe if my beliefs can't possibly affect you?

Right, so apparently you're thinking that it can't be funny for the reasons that I found it funny.Skepdick wrote: ↑Mon Mar 15, 2021 5:47 pmI bet you don't even know why that's funny.

A lot of my attraction to philosophy was the same as something G.E. Moore said was one of his main attractions to philosophy: to figure out why people claim some of the curious things they claim.
It's kind of like freak show curiosity. Or being intrigued by the residents of a mental home. Some of us find that sort of thing entertaining in its own right.
Re: There is no 'Matter of Fact' [Analytic].
That sure explains why you have this weird obsession with somebody who doesn't have any interest in claiming anything (me).Terrapin Station wrote: ↑Mon Mar 15, 2021 5:53 pm Right, so apparently you're thinking that it can't be funny for the reasons that I found it funny.

Yeah, that you claim you don't claim anything is part of the curiosity. That's the same as Age more or less. He claims to not believe anything.Skepdick wrote: ↑Mon Mar 15, 2021 5:56 pmThat sure explains why you have this weird obsession with somebody who doesn't have any interest in claiming anything (me).Terrapin Station wrote: ↑Mon Mar 15, 2021 5:53 pm Right, so apparently you're thinking that it can't be funny for the reasons that I found it funny.
