Hi Stephen P. King
No, it's not just a matter of perspective, and his philosophy is illogical.
The firewall is there to separate things that should not and can not possibly
mix or
exhange anything between them by themselves. Most prominently, in materialism,
it is the firewall between
mind and brain. Nobody's ever been able to interface them, hence there is no
feasible solution
mind and brain.

Leibniz would say, If there's no God, we'd have to invent him so everything
could function.

Hi Roger,
?? ontological firewall ? Could you elaborate on exactly what that means to
you? BY Pratt, the difference between the two is just a matter of perspective,
like the figure-ground. One cannot see both at the same time without cancelling
both out. Pratt builds on how the mind and body have transformations that flow
in opposite directions.

Pratt does not seem to understand that there is an ontological firewall between
extended ?(body)
and inextended (mind) entities. As far as I know, only monadology can wipe out
that problem.
