Re: Cause and Effect as Voidin

The inversion of the cause into an effect in turn results in another cause. Causality is thus the inversion of one state into another state with this inversion being the differentiation of one phenomenon from another. Differentiation is the lacking of one set of qualities in one phenomenon with tha...

Re: Mind has no location

...simultaneously in you hard drive, RAM, motherboard, CPU, and monitor... Your operating system, at least the bootstrap part, is located in some kind of non-volatile memory such as a prom, or your hard drive. Usually it is not in RAM because when you power down Ram is cleared. The prom can be on y...

Re: What could make morality objective?

At one time I'd hoped to find a human belief that was common to all societies. The belief I chose was not anti-murder but pro-hospitality to strangers. I still think the evidence favours generic pro-hospitality, but am willing to reconsider. As for murder being generically wrong, there is such a lo...

Re: Mind has no location

The mind can be located with some uncertainty by measuring the location of the brain that causes it relative to some frame of reference.

Re: The Ontological God is the Ultimate God.

Ok, so clearly, you have an opposition between what is "real" and and what is "merely thought". This is a very common misunderstanding. Let me try to resolve it by showing you why you have it. Let me direct your attention first to nature. By nature I mean what is. Consider the f...

Re: The Ontological God is the Ultimate God.

I don't see how your 'greater to not exist' is applicable to St. Anselm's argument. Because if it is greater not to exist then his proof functions as a proof that god does not exist because else, were he (god) to exist, he would not be as great as a the same god not existing, and since god is that ...

Relative perfection If one's answers in an objective tests are ALL correct that is a 100% perfect score. Perfect scor...

Re: The Ontological God is the Ultimate God.

... If you argue God is a being itself or being-in-itself, God-in-itself, this is yet another form of the ontological God. In this case, Kant had demonstrated the 'thing-in-itself' is an illusion. BTW I do not argue that God is a "being itself or being-in-itself" nor do I subscribe to the...

Re: The Ontological God is the Ultimate God.

Your point is off the OP's in relation to the definition of the ontological God, i.e. as in stated in the OP; St. Anselm; The ontological God is a, "being than which no greater can be conceived ". -wiki Descartes; He suggested that the concept of God is that of a supremely perfect being, ...

Generally ontology is the study of 'being'. In the OP I have defined the specific ontological being, i.e. the ontological God. Your post seem to have veered off point to ontology in general. As it turns out it is not off point as for example the syntax "greatest being" in the OP admits th...
