I think I haven't always been clear on our definitions of mechanism and materialism. But I can understand and accept definitions of those terms under which MGA 1 shows that it's logically necessary that Lucky Alice is conscious, and MGA 2 shows that it's logically necessary that "the projection of the movie makes Alice conscious" (your words from a previous email). I think we can proceed with that. But can you clarify exactly what MECH+MAT is supposed to be saying about the movie? Does MECH+MAT say that something special is happening when we project the movie, or is the simple existence of the movie enough? -- Kory --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
