Saying they are “immanent” — Wayfarer

Concepts are real, but not material. — Wayfarer

... not denying an external reality. — Wayfarer

It denies that we can meaningfully speak of a “mind-independent world” in the strong sense— i.e., a world that would exist in the way we understand it to exist even in the absence of any standpoint, any cognitive frame, any lived perspective.

Philosophy can inquire into what lies beyond the limits of objectivity in a way science cannot.

... the world-as-lived, the meaningful, structured world of experience, is constituted through the operations of cognition [ ... ] the world we inhabit is inseparable from [enables-constrains] the activity of consciousness [discursive practices] that renders it intelligible [explicable / computational]. — Wayfarer

I can accept [without a shred of evidence] the notion of hands-off creator-programmer-observer [that doesn't explain anything] ... — Gnomon

Descartes desired certitude and usefulness vis-a-vis the material world. Sextus [Pyrrho] wanted ataraxia. — Leontiskos

Neuroscience tells us how the brain behaves when we think; it cannot tell us what thinking is — — Wayfarer

... "Ultimate reality (Brahman) is infinite, eternal, and beyond time, space, or change, has no shape or qualities, and is the source of everything" ... — Gnomon

Can you rebut the arguments that I provided from Gerson, Feser, Russell? — Wayfarer

There has been eight years of 'MAGA' America, and we see, loud and clear, where the hate, violence and vitriol is coming from. Not. MAGA. — AmadeusD

MAGA, it seems, consists of its bewildered and besotted followers. If that's Conservatism, it's mutated considerably. — Ciceronianus

@180 Proof will be very happy! — Banno

So it’s Multiverses all the way down then? — Punshhh

↪180 Proof So which one are you? — Punshhh

There is a point though, only an idealist [immaterislist], of some kind, would restrict what is to what can be said, or known by a person. Surely by contrast, a physicalist [materialist] of some kind would allow any of an infinite number of other possibilities and the fact that we cannot observe them directly doesn’t preclude their existence. — Punshhh

Define what you mean by "lefty wokeness"?
— 180 Proof

The left. The not-‘MAGA’. — Fire Ologist

[Is] maga the only evidence of the disease of not thinking post enlightenment? — Fire Ologist

And an illusion is something that only a mind can entertain. — Wayfarer

Or, more to my point, is lefty wokeness a symptom of not thinking too, ...? — Fire Ologist

[C]onsciousness ... appears inexplicable.

That’s not a cognitive failing, it’s a conceptual one. — Wayfarer

[R]eality is what there is. To posit something "beyond reality" is to posit more [than] what there is. "Beyond reality" is not a region; it is a grammatical error. — Banno

What should we[I/you] think about?

Nothing within physics is distinct from philosophical [metaphysical] nothing. — ucarr

If you think the universe was preceded by nothing, then you must explain how nothing transitioned into something. — ucarr

Any one-sentence OP is basically click bait. — Wayfarer

beyond our reality — an-salad

Tranwomen are women. Transmen are men. True or false? — Philosophim

What emerges as fundamental are the invariances. The constraints of symmetry and then the degrees of freedom that result. — apokrisis

I think it most plausible to consider that what we cannot introspect is 'neural', and that it is precisely it's character as non-mental that makes it impossible to introspect. — Janus

Do we really have free will?

Man can do what he wills, but he cannot will what he wills. — Arthur Schopenhauer

It's not that we must avoid pains -- it's that we shouldn't be the cause of our own mental anguish; the pains aren't so bad as they stand, and the pleasures are not so alluring that we need to punish ourselves for not obtaining them. — Moliere

As you stated, eudaimonia is hardly objective. — javi2541997

But my post was in direct relation to how Epicureanism was outlined by 180 Proof. And with that description I yet disagree. — javra
