maybe we can tackle that more simply
General concepts
give an example of a general concept
could you be a bit more specific
The immaterial is conceptual
Words perhaps?
Any given thing we can think of
That is tied to the world yet is above it/out of it
"immaterial" is a meaningless symbol as it does not designate anything
"Materialism is a form of philosophical monism which holds that matter is the fundamental substance in nature, and that all things, including mental aspects and consciousness, are results of material interactions."
R E A D
@big fat memes But it is not *just* matter
what else is it then
"In contrast to materialism, idealism concedes the primary of consciousness, which means consciousness exists before material, consciousness creates and determines material, not vice versa. Idealism theories believe consciousness is the origin of the world and aim to explain the existing world by mental causes."
I contend that consciousness, or what can be reckoned by the conscious, is not material
>muh idealism
Wrong argument
what is consciousness
What doth life?
then what are you, a pluralist, a dualist, an idealist or a materialist because these are the only options?
if you do not have clearly defined terms for debating then don't bother making any claims at all since you don't actually believe anything
I am none of those
anything that can be said can be said clearly
Then what are you?
@reedpopper That is such a stubborn way to think
Super gay
Jesus christ this is like one of these videos where a fucking idiot gets basic maths explained to them
my sides
@big fat memes Wrong argument
How the fuck did you manage to go through life being this much of a fucking brainlet?
Tell us what you are then
If you're not a materialist or an idealist
I have gotten through life because my brain is huge
soyboys go through life with daddy's money and mommy's tendies, as usual
I know Scots have small minds
But this is ridiculous
do you have friends
@reedpopper You calling me a soyboy?
can you answer the question you debate dodging retard
if you're not a materialist or an idealist then what are you?
where did you find this guy
