Could you explain to us why you have a 'problem' with that? Is it because it successfully refutes the premise of your thread?

Re: All ontological arguments are wrong
Because the experience is the first thing which connects us to what we call reality. Moreover we know that the sense of "I" is byproduct of brain activity.attofishpi wrote: ↑Wed Jan 03, 2018 12:52 pmCould you explain to us why you have a 'problem' with that?

Well, brain and everything else is content of our experience. Everything could be local experience since there is no "I" anyway to experience things.

Re: All ontological arguments are wrong
I'm saying that using his principle that arguments are wrong if you don't know them to be true with 100% certainty (which are all of them to him) would mean that all arguments are wrong, just by his own line of reasoning. So it's weird to me that he would make a thread to single out ontological arguments for god, specifically, because what he's saying has very general applications.uwot wrote: ↑Wed Jan 03, 2018 11:48 amNah.
