I believe his claim is that there is only one mind.

He has yet to define the word "mind". I am pretty sure he uses the word in his own, idiosyncratic, way, effectively rendering his argument against the existence of minds a form of equivocation.

Why are your views so absolutely narrowed, here?
1. Yet another use of the condescending reference that is "this one".
2. Ad hominem attack #1, "You can't be more closed."
3. Ad hominem attack #2, "You can't be more blind."
4. Combative language, "Your views are absolutely narrowed."

In addition to the above, the post has no substance -- no explanation as to why he thinks what I'm saying is wrong.

Now watch him deny all of this by tirelessly repeating his usual mantra.

You just did. You just told us we are "slow learners".
What?

I never ever told absolutely any one that they are 'slow learners'.

What I, obviously, said, and wrote, was, 'Once more for the very slow learners, here. ...'.

So, if there are none, then there are none. But, if there are, then 'they', obviously, already know who 'they' are, exactly.

I am sure you will. Very infantile.
A usual response from one who believes, absolutely, that it is superior to another, and who also believes the other should do what it tells them to do.

Age wrote: Mon Sep 29, 2025 10:31 am Once more I will suggest that you, people, start seeking out and obtaining actually 'clarity' before you presume, or believe, absolutely any thing.
How about you do the same when someone calls you a shut-in autistic faggot who admits he has no mind?
What, exactly, does a so-called 'shut-in autistic faggot' mean, to you, exactly?
Magnus Anderson wrote: Mon Sep 29, 2025 11:56 am And if they tell you they meant nothing bad, you better believe them.
Okay.

Did you 'try to' mean any thing so-called 'bad', here?

Age wrote: Mon Sep 29, 2025 10:31 am I have been suggesting 'this' for quite a while 'now'. One day 'these posters' might let 'it' 'sink in', so that 'it' is Truly, and fully, understood, exactly.
How about you start practicing what you preach yourself instead of being a poser?
When, exactly, do you believe that I have assumed some thing, before I sought out to obtain actual clarity first?

My bad, I thought his comments about GUTOE (grand unified theory of everything) and his TRACK idea (have forgotten what his acronym stands for) were supposed to represent some kind of "proof". Otherwise, it didn't look much like proof to me. So maybe he still needs to provide his "proof".

Your "proof" Age?
Even, here, 'this one's' assumptions and beliefs have led it completely and utterly astray. Which is why it, still, can not work out where the 'proof' is, exactly, here.
So Age, is there only one mind in the universe? Or are there many minds?
How many times do I have to say, 'There is only One Mind, only', before you comprehend, and understand, how many there is, to me?

Or, is the word, 'mind', another one of 'those words', which you claim every one already knows what the definition is, anyway, and thus another one of 'those words' that, laughingly do not need to be defined?
Nice dodge.
Once again, absolutely no answer, nor clarification, at all, provided.

OK. Fair enough. To me it seems pretty clear that there are billions of minds in the universe. And what exactly is a "mind" to you?

Either you lack self-awareness or you're simply lying, neither of which is a good thing.

I wonder how Fairy is going to defend this.

As if you do that yourself . . .

You were asked to define the word "mind". You dodged the question.

According to you, you have no mind -- you are mindless -- so I can understand why you can't see that.

Thank you. I thought it was blatantly obvious. But, clearly it is not.

Also, you spelt 'Mind' Wrong.

And, the reason is blatantly obvious, as well. Well, to me anyway.

And Harbal isn’t a gadfly.

Why don’t you start practicing what you preach.
I am practicing it. But that does not entail being nice to people who are rude ( such as Age, Harbal, etc. )
It’s rude to portion rudeness to people you’ve never met except as a character living rent free in your head.

Aren’t we dealing with ideas here, not actual human beings with feelings and emotions ?

Nah, you don't get to dictate how words are spelled. The correct spelling is "mind".

You're trying too hard. Your advice should be given to people such as Age and Harbal, not me. Take a look at my thread "Basic Semiotics" and count how many times I talk about my interlocutors versus how many times Age does the same ( hint: he does it A LOT, as I've shown in this thread. ) And understand that I don't have to meet these people in person. I'm talking about their Internet interactions.

I know. you told me 'this' before, already.
Gary Childress wrote: Mon Sep 29, 2025 1:27 pm And what exactly is a "mind" to you?
Finally some one comes out, and asks. However, if 'this question' was asked from a Truly open perspective, for clarity sake, only, or for another reason 'we' will have to wait to 'see'.

The word, 'Mind', references the ability within all human beings, since they were created, through evolution, to be able to be absolutely open, to any and every thing.

And, it is through this One, always Truly open, Mind, which exists within all human beings, exactly, how and why human beings, collectively and individually, can imagine, learn, and create, and thus can keep on moving and progressing forward, in Life, until 'the One goal', within every one, is created, achieved, and/or reached.

Now, again, what, exactly, is a 'mind', to you, "gary childress"?
