> [Krimel] > Ok, your refusal to use English makes communication difficult.
[Ham] I don't know what language you think I'm using, but I suspect it's the concept rather than the words that makes communication difficult. [Krimel] I think you rely too much on your private prayer language: Hamish. The concepts aren't difficult to express in English they just don't sound as lofty, or very well thought out. > [Krimel] > Are you asserting that "absolute sensibility" would be left > if we take away the brain, its history and the present moment? [Ham] What I said was: "Ultimate reality has the power of locus, but neither this potentiality nor 'selfness' is separable from its absolute sensibility." [Krimel] Here is an example of Hamish making the idiotic sound profound. "Ultimate reality" is a meaningless concept. Perhaps that is what attracts you to it. It can mean whatever you like. At least when one says "He-Man was filled with the power of Greyskull;" it has meaning in a certain context. Locus is not a power. It doesn't have a power. There is no power in locus nor a power of locus. I have no idea why you think the term potentiality can be applied to "ultimate reality". Whatever "ultimate reality" is must be beyond mere potential. "Absolute sensibility" is another fantasy term. Would that be something like Dr. Manhattan? Any term derived from the root "sense" must refer to some organ of sensation. No organ of sensation or combination of such organs can absorb all of the properties of any sensible thing. That would just be a waste of processing power. [Ham] I was referring to the primary source (Essence), not to human beingness. Take away ALL brains, ALL history, and ALL moments, and there would still be absolute sensibility. [Krimel] Talking about sensibility without the possibility of something to sense it is just gibberish. > [Krimel] > What would be sensed? [Ham] Absoluteness (as itself), which is the unity of Value and Beingness (as itself). [Krimel] And you whine about Nihilists. Without brains or sensing creatures what you have left is Death. It that what you worship? Death? > [Krimel] > Who would be sensing it? [Ham] Essence. [Krimel] And this is the Essence of your metaphysics? A dead cold universe feeling itself up? Like some zombie tight-end checking his package? It is not hard to see why you avoid English.
