Re: What could make morality objective?
It is based on your illusory philosophical realism that you reason there must be a real noumena that is represented by the real phenomena. Have a look at these two assertions: 1 There is no distinction between noumena and phenomena. The dichotomy doesn't exist. 2 Philosophical realism is belief in ...

Re: Self, Mind not Physical but Psychological Facts
Notes: There are degrees of credibility and objectivity of facts and reality between different main set of FSERCs and between the subsets of FSERCs. The point is the degrees or credibility and objectivity of the science-physics FSRC [at its best] is much higher than the science-psychology FSERC's. T...

Self, Mind not Physical but Psychological Facts
The empirical self [transcendental ego], the mind, mental representations are only mistakenly claimed as physical and real, so the claimant are requested to provided physical evidences to justify their claim. The principle is: Whatever is claimed as real and facts must be conditioned within a human-...

Re: What could make morality objective?
Kant didn't view the mind as a separate, non-physical substance. Nor does indirect realism. Where do you have this random obsession from? Phew. So the transcendental ego is a physical thing that transcends mere sense data, as is the mind that experiences mental representations of reality, rather th...

Re: Kant: Phenomena [real] - Noumena [FALSE -Illusory]
Notes: Kant stated theoretically, the noumenon can only be known via an intellectual intuition. Humans by nature cannot have an intellectual intuition. Therefore it is non-starter to even consider the noumenon can be known as real by humans. As such, the noumenon can only be thought as an idea or a ...

Kant: Phenomena [real] - Noumena [FALSE -Illusory]
PH et. al. claimed there are no absolutely independent moral facts [objective], thus morality cannot be objective. Kant claimed PH sort of facts are actually real 'Noumena' which are false or illusory.-, i.e. 1. Phenomena [real] - Noumena [real] but Kant countered the actual situation with this; 2. ...

Re: What could make morality objective?
Now, answer this question: If there are no noumena, then of what are phenomena phenomena? Or consider this: If there are no things-in-themselves, then appearances are not appearances of things-in-themselves. Or try this: What does a transcendental ego transcend? You haven't begun to think criticall...

Re: What could make morality objective?
As far as I'm aware it was Descartes who posited the idea of the mind being a separate non-physical "substance" distinct from the body. And, again, as far as I'm aware, the jury is still in deliberation as to whether that is the case or not. Yes it was Descartes [theistically driven] who ...

Re: Incest Deterrence & Morality is Objectivity
As I had stated the encoded inbreeding avoidance algorithm [IAA] is encoded [as evident] but has varying degrees of activeness in different humans and groups. Inbreeding has potential risks depending on whether it is closely linked relations or distance ones. This is why inbreeding between closely ...

Re: What could make morality objective?
Here's VA's Kantian scenario. A bunch of transcendental egos sit around in illusory bodies, emitting illusory farts from the illusory decomposition in their illusory guts of a remarkably good but sadly illusory dinner, talking to each illusory other using illusory language, and coming to the illuso...

Re: Incest Deterrence & Morality is Objectivity
There is a big range of living organisms within the animal [non-human] kingdom. I did not mention about frequencies related to animals. However, I did qualify ' higher animals ' where incest avoidance is very evident. Upon reaching maturity, either the males or females will leave the pack, pride or...

Re: No Humans = No Human-based Reality
I should have added to the above "truism." No Humans = No absolutely human-based independent Reality out there. but there is a lot of nuances to it to be deliberated philosophically; Some people on this site think that "the stuff out there" is reality. You, on the other hand, th...
