A Philosophy of Mind

Is the mind the same as the body? What is consciousness? Can machines have it?

I have no desire to seem to be dealing in some secret corner complaining about you or to be filled with malice and envy against you or anyone.
What a bitch liar...for what are you doing here if ideas are all that interest you?
Barbara Brooks wrote: My mind is ever directed towards ideas, which are neither injuring nor resentful against other.
What a noble sentiment, and yet your ideas seem to be human, all too human.
Barbara Brooks wrote: I am merely directed towards truth all in order moving according to reason these I imitate as far as I can.
Let us see.
Barbara Brooks wrote:Cowardly and mean ways have no part in true philosophy
These harsh feeling you have the many entertain towards philosophy originate from the pretenders, who rush in always abusing philosophy, and finding fault with it.
You idiot, psychology is a fundamental part of any human thinking and philosophy, as we know it, is a human discipline.

If you do not understand the anuimals you are dealing with, you do not understand yourself and this makes you a victim of your own nature...you moron.
Barbara Brooks wrote:
Turn back to the time that took place thousands of years ago philosophy when it was really love of knowledge and view it in a new light its specific contributions to the field of science and intellectual world.
"Love of knowledge" you imbecile was always tainted by a motive: knowledge towards power, towards life, towards an advantage.

You can do all the reading you wish, from Heidegger to Hume, and you will still remain a naive dolt if you do not comprehend this fact.
Barbara Brooks wrote: Everyone is ruled by divine wisdom dwelling within them; or, if this be impossible, then by an external influence, in order that people may be all, as far as possible, under the same government, friends and equals.
What?
the universe speaks of multiplicity, conflict, tactics and conflicts, and you speak like a naive little dimwit.
All that supposed reading and you still remain a child.

Where are these "equals" you naive moron, and where are these idealized "friends"?
Evolution Theory talks about inequalities being selected and competitions, you stupid ****.

Imbecile, you sheltered brat, the world must be dealt with not avoided.
Barbara Brooks wrote:What was taught me as chance has arranged I borrowed all that is best in knowledge I listed everything, if not perfectly, at least as well as is in my mind.
Then you ere deaf...or selectively listening.
Barbara Brooks wrote: I did not intend to try mastering all this thinking gradually I accustomed myself to conceive more and more accurately and distinctly this knowledge plus I could not find anything more exciting then studying philosophy.
Then sit back, shit up and listen.
Do you have the courage to accept reality as it is, rather than how you wish it to be?
If not, you stupid bitch, then immerse yourself within the throngs of morons that occupy these forums and be content with the feelings of comfort and relief they offer.
Barbara Brooks wrote:What I was educated was already in my consciousness as chance had arranged it. I required to consider each classification of philosophy. and In order to keep them in my memory or several, at once I wrote each down.
retard, reality is not engaged through others but directly, only referencing others.

If not, then find a place behind the lines of sophists and academic institutionalized parrots that pollute the airwaves.
Barbara Brooks wrote: Thanks to the forum, I am well assured of my accuracy as of my own existence.
No, stupid ****, you are assured respect, no matter if you deserve it or not.

Here, you idiot, you are protected, no matter how dumb you are.
Then you can go to bed thinknig that you make sense when an idiot you are, because you repeat what the masses consider right and you replicate the popular.
Barbara Brooks wrote: I studied the best and I examined and reexamined, sifted and compared until an inward voice proclaimed to me no possibility of doubt.

Barbara
Stupid ****, two people can watch the same movie and one can think its about action and explosions while the other might find deep metaphysical meanings in it...the source is only as good as the interpreter.

So far, a moron you are...a stupid **** with a more vast vocabulary and a higher sense of self developed.

Now there are those who will see eye to eye with what I say and who take my words as good; and there are others who oppose and find what I say deem me to be useless and see no sort of profit to be obtained.

Through likeness comes truth and with it kindness. Truth makes obvious reason. What is truth but assurance of reality? Not only belief but reason the bare and simple truth.

The eyes certainly do see both small and great, but only in a confused manner; not distinguished, whereas it is the mind, lights up the chaos, What is great and what is small, arises the distinction of the visible and the intelligible world. Without contradiction there would be no reason to be; but when there is a challenge opposition present, and one is the reverse of one involves plurality, then mind begins to be aroused within is perplexed and wants to arrive at a answer.

Fix your eyes to immediate-being and ask how thought relates to being? This is the intellectual question the art of reason, pure intellect that entails thinking for the sake of knowledge, purely speculative has the power of elevating the mind to the highest principles of being.

Pure being is pure thought a negative sense in relation to self-consciousness within that of sense-experience and perception necessarily passes, consciousness weaves and moves inarticulately within itself.

An ethical society maintains itself by being thoughtful and preserves a spirit of the entire society, collectively a pure spirit outside of individualism and family. Here mind rises out of a state of heartlessness into for all a conscious universal spirit, and constitutes the element of divine and human law.


Socrates believed always be friendship among the good, not friendship among unpleasant people, then the whole society is most likely to find happiness.

Philosophy the spectator of all time is harmonious, just, and gentle, even in youth is lodged in their heart. Their happiness depends upon the better elements of the mind also leads to order and reason is their any greater blessing than friendship and happiness burst with passion.

You are pandering to the crowd, weakling. Your 'reasoning" is tainted by a need - a need to be appreciated.

That's why it fails to grasp reality.

Reality is independent from your needs, imbecile, and so you seeking to find in it an immediate reward, to then share and be applauded, clouds your eyes, and makes you another idiot.

Pleasure is wrestled from suffering, it isn't offered like a gift on a platter, for morons who simply change views to change their mnids.

Ah, I see, this is a contest of popularity.

The Feminization of Mankind

I'm sure that where you come from reality is decided with a vote, but where I come from most do not deserve a vote at all.
Appealing to the swine, imbecile, is an easy affair.

I refuse to be led astray by opinions and I will keep hold my purpose until my philosophy is made actual; I am going beyond self to perform my purpose; no feelings can stop me, all that sort of feeling arises from pure opinion. I am carrying out my purpose still I force myself to write my philosophy. That’s all I can do in this world is do the highest of all gifts of humanity is purpose

Some people fall into the practice of thinking that they are reasoning when they are really disputing, because they cannot define divide, and are a mere verbal opposition in the spirit of argument and not discussion but verbal opposition.I am only too glad to put this to sleep

Reason is the centrality that passes out of opinion over above hypotheses passes into the intellectual world is nothing more than pure insight an illumination called the unconscious inner working and weaving of mind. Thus, it is pure ideal implicit thought or simply complete pure self-conscious


If I myself thought I knew what I was talking about: declaring truth of matters such high principles I have most need to be sure of my footing, I pray I do.

You poor pathetic creature...reality isn't decided with a referendum.

Empiricism is my standard....not seducing the minions of depravity with words of praise and messages of hope and love.
It's easy to manipulate such need, you sad stupid woman, but I have pissed in their well and my words will not have that air of "honesty" as the ramblings of a naive dolt, such as you.
Simpletons prefer simpletons, even if power attracts them and scares them.

Did you not see the link, dimwit?

15 000 and counting.

Unintentionally, mind you, since I try to speak to a more select audience, but a topic involving sex and sexuality unavoidably attracts the base, as well.

-----------
You add a declaration of your impotence, wanting to immerse itself in the comforting embrace of mediocrity and uniformity.
A symptom of weakness and decline.

Ego is the pulling away from the throng, self the pushing and pulling away from the absolute nothing/something.
The tendency towards being assimilated is a nihilistic one.
A scares mind awakening to e cold and indifferent universe, feeling the cost of its distinction, of its consciousness, as suffering, and dreaming of self-contradictory utopias or relief in chemical numbness or emotional inebriation.

Your dissatisfaction with existence is showing.

Courage is a sort of saving power of true opinion about real and false dangers. Under all circumstances in pleasure or in pain, or desire or fear do not lose courage; it’s mightier agent than any soda lye; it is the mightiest of all other solvents for washing the mind of fear .

Retard, dialogue is a battle of wits.
When one is convinced by another mind, one is dominated.

As with anything in nature, opininos follow the rules of natural selection.
There is no equality of opininos, no agreement to disagree no cowards way out with perspectivism and the illusion that you create reality by believing it.

Some people fall into the practice that they are reasoning when they are merely repeating the same old crap they were taught from childhood.
Being popular, dear woman, and adhering to popular sentiments is not reasoning...it is emoting.

That it feels good does not constitute an argument as to its veracity, you dimwit.

Hope is an antidote to anxiety, this is true moron, that is why peddlers of hope, the Christians and the political charlatans that come along, are always seductive to the most fearful.


But not all hope is equally valid, or possible, you moron.
If I hold onto the hope that there is an afterlife it is not the same as to hope that the sun will come out tomorrow.

The probability of an expectation is measured by how it adheres to experiences and repetitive consistency.

Of course a moron like you would be attractive to the myriads of lost afraid confused morons out there. You offer them, and to yourself, relief...an escape....a pill, an inebriating high.

Reality cannot be escaped, it can only be faced...and how many have the balls to do that?
Not you, that's for sure.

Look at how you beleive, like a naive moron, that fear can just be "washed away", as if ti were not a natural survival tool and a normal reaction to what is unknown.

Courage is not the absence of fear, you imbecile, it is its control.

Ignorance is not courage, moron, it is stupidity. Remaining unaware of the risks and costs and possible dangers is not bravery. A child pulling on a pot that sits on a hot stove is not brave, moron, it is unaware.
