To All Y'all MoQers,
Sorry but I gotta lurk for a while. Some recent events in real life have
conspired to make it difficult for me to spend as much time as I would
like
in these realms. I have to focus on a couple of really time consuming
activities for the next couple of months. I have drifted in an out several
times over the past few years so I'll be back when I can and I will chime
in
from time to time just not as often as usual.
I hate leaving active status right now because there are several issues I
would like to pursue but that's life, huh?
A couple of note in passing:
In a conversation with dmb I asked what experiences radical empiricism
would
allow. I was not picking a fight over mysticism rather I was wondering
what
kind of experience one could have that did not involve activation of the
nervous system. I would say emphatically, "None!" If your nerves don't
light
up it didn't happen. We can categorize experiences into various boxes;
direct, indirect, immediate, recalled... pick your own boxes but all of
our
experiences a located in our nervous systems. I guess my point is that you
aren't going to understand much about experience if you don't at least
look
at the nervous system and how it grows, how it tranduces energy, how it
integrates its own multiple modalities...
Greetings anyone,
I do not know nearly enough about science to be credible, but I do have
questions. What is this nervous system? It's an analogy. What is it?
Somatic? Autonomic? Is it a thing-in-itself? Where is its beginning and
where is its end? Wave? Particle? Space? What is missed by defining it
such? To me it is a static pattern of value, conceptually imputed. Now it
may have some convenience, but...
Just asking.
