Re: Knowledge
Is there a cat in the box? I don't know I open the box. Look, there's a cat!. There is a cat in the box. I know there is a cat in the box. How did I go from not knowing to knowing? I was given new information (which I then processed). Unless you're going all philosophical on me :p and this knwoldege...

Re: The simplest question I know - does the following summarize the essence of scientific inquiry
also, i think you missed "testing":
"followed by by theorizing, hypothesizing, and testing."

Re: The simplest question I know - does the following summarize the essence of scientific inquiry
I'm double posting this into here, seems it belongs better to this thread than in the one in general: Science is larger than that. Some parts of science is qualitative, not quantitative, and some sciences (Math as an example) do not deal with Perceptions. Maybe you mean Physics specifically? Empiria...

Re: Are there any SIMPLE books refuting what Bernardo calls "The materialism of qualities"?
Science is larger than that. Some parts of science is qualitative, not quantitative, and some sciences (Math as an example) do not deal with Perceptions. Maybe you mean Physics specifically? Empirial research is heavily dependent on Instruments. You might call it Perception by Proxy. Anyway, i feel ...

Re: Cleric's Responses to Mystical Metaphysics (or How to Make a Logical Argument)
I am not going to state the conclusions, because, since you are already reading it, the process of following the phenomenology and logical progression for oneself is very important. Here I will just say the following - Steiner is outlining the basics of how the World Content appears to us as split ...

Re: Cleric's Responses to Mystical Metaphysics (or How to Make a Logical Argument)
As a matter of pure curiosity, I wonder if anyone has actually met in this corporeal existence a person (not a writing of or about some luminary) who does not have unconscious beliefs that determine their personal choice of a model that best serves the evolution of their being? How would I know if ...

Re: Cleric's Responses to Mystical Metaphysics (or How to Make a Logical Argument)
Hey, just because everything is consciousness doesn't automatically make "truth" identical to what we know. Knowledge does not have to be the same as consciousness. There can be consciousness without thinking, and thus, without knowledge. Secondly; Are you calling the entire Red Team duali...

Re: Cleric's Responses to Mystical Metaphysics (or How to Make a Logical Argument)
It is impossible prove non-existence of limits to knowledge. Are you sure about that? Do you have proof? Statements like these feel close to things like Halting Problems, Incompletemess Theorems etc. From "Truth" perspecive i find it just as unjustified to claim "It is impossible pro...
