What a load of poppy-cock. You want a naturalistic - indeed materialist, phyicalist - theory of universals? David Armstrong. It's not Platonic, of course, it's Aristotelian. In this scheme, there are universals, but not that many. The universals whi…

A place to discuss analytic philosophy, its relationship to science, and its contemporary role in promoting rational thought and the scientific worldview.

Wakefield, being a British doctor, had very little to do with the American Medical Association. He does have a lot to do with the anti-vax brigade though.

About Me
I'm based just outside London. I'm studying for a MA in Philosophy at the University of London. I've not believed in God for quite some time now, but first consciously realised it when I was about 11 years old and said "I think the stuff they tell us in church is a story".

I did my dissertation on the many logical problems with intelligent design. I'm now spending my time trying to get my head around the last hundred years of analytic philosophy.

I am also involved in Semantic Web stuff, and enjoy soul, funk and jazz music. I also have an unhealthy but utterly pleasurable relationship with cheese.

Hi Tom and welcome. Thanks for joining analytic philosophy. With two new members I will have to actually add a discussion. Feel free to do so yourself if you wish.

Bruce.

Thanks for the warm welcome. I've updated me profile to include a bit more background. Am I a person? Hmm. Not sure about that. The study of metaphysics has awoken me from my dogmatic slumbers, and I have no idea what I believe anymore.

That doesn’t just make us oddballs or eccentric in their eyes. It makes us a threat to them, to the artificial belief and authority which is the entire structure of what makes their religions work. They are indeed frightened by us, which makes me t…

I used to eat a lot of free food cooked and served by the Krishnas. It sure beat anything I ever had at a Christian-sponsored soup kitchen.

Fr33think3r replied to James's discussion 'Pro Bowl' in the group Atheist NFL Fans
I didn't watch it. I think they should scratch the game. In the past I found it fun to watch but it changed into an exhibition. Maybe they could have an all star weekend with skill tests and fan participation.

Free Thinker, I'm agnostic on the whole determinism/free will problem, so I'm not going to go out of my way to argue on behalf of determinist. I will say though that it's experiments like Libet's that we'd expect to be the case if determinism is tr…

Her name was Sarah, and she went to church with me. She told me she would stay a virgin until God took her on her last dying day. And that she would stay a virgin unless God wanted her for himself. I told her she was deluded. And then proceeded to…
