blather, n. strings of words in the form of assertions having no
testable
consequences.
Calling it blather doesn't change the fact that you can't make an
omniscient claim
against someone else's non-omniscience.
But I can make an empirically informed one.
That means that you claim to have empirical information about consciousness beyond
another person's information about their own consciousness.
(a) I said I have empirical information. I didn't say it is beyond somebody
elses.
How can you claim to have that at the same time that you claim someone else
can't?
(b) It was you who claimed to know what John couldn't know.
