Lecture by Michael Silberstein on the nature of mind and matter

Post by Astra052 »



In this video Michael Silberstein makes what I think is a really good case against he materialist paradigm. He sets up the case and context really well and quickly breaks down why it just doesn't match how things are. He falls just short in the end by going for the neutral monist route in my opinion. Neutral monism comes from an accurate view of reality, meaning that mind and matter are not seperate but doesn't go as far as I think it should. Either way, I wonder what everyone thinks about his case against the current materialist paradigm.

Please let me know if this belongs in the Philosophy section of the forum.
