Hi William R. Buckley Sort of, but statements (written words on a page) are objective, words read (as you are reading this) are subjective (in the mind)

Buckley To an idealist, the real universe is subjective, it is made up of forms of mind. But to a realist, sticks and stones can break your bones --- but thinking to do so usually doesn't work. In the morning I can be an idealist, in the afternoon go out and enjoy nature as a realist. Sex is also much better as a realist.

I don't think it's taught in science class. 2) Your comment about 0s and 1s and ascii characters has nothing to do with living experience or thought.

Today a bright high school physics or biology student understands far more about the inter workings of the universe than either Locke or Hume. > Turing machines cannot experience life. They can only experience 0s and 1s. And you can only experience the firings of the neurons in your brain and Shakespeare only produced a sequence of ASCII characters. Do you fine anything a bit simplistic in this worldview? John K Clark -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
