Saturday, March 22, 2008. Epistemic Closure, and KK. Epistemic Closure, at the least the single premise variety, is usually formulated like this:.

Musings about Philosophy: Vagueness and Identity

http://musingsaboutphilosophy.blogspot.com/2008/02/vagueness-and-identity.html

Friday, February 8, 2008. Many metaphysicians are interested in a question which can be put roughly in the following way: can it be vague whether A and B are identical? Sometimes sloppy metaphysicians ask whether "identity can be vague." But this sloppiness borders on being a category mistake. Vagueness most naturally, and in the first instance, applies to questions, not objects or relations. It can vague as to whether. Harry is bald, or vague as to how many. Grains of sand are in the. Are identical, the...

Musings about Philosophy: Desires as Evidence for Normative Belief

http://musingsaboutphilosophy.blogspot.com/2008/03/desires-as-evidence-for-normative.html

Sunday, March 2, 2008. Desires as Evidence for Normative Belief. Why is it that when you believe that Ф-ing is good, you thereby have a reason to Ф? Sometimes this question is posed antagonistically to cognitivists/realists about normativity. The thought, I think, is that typically when one stands in the belief relation to a proposition one does not thereby have a motivation to do something. What’s so special about the normative propositions, asks the non-cognitivist/anti-realist. What do you do? Defeasi...

Musings about Philosophy: February 2008

http://musingsaboutphilosophy.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html

Wednesday, February 13, 2008. French Kisses and Butterfly Kisses. I think that the following puzzling case about belief ascriptions is very important to studies of: (i) the nature of belief, (ii) the contents of belief, and (iii) the nature of representation. The case comes from an example that David Barnett. Communicated to me in person. Harry and Harriet are both young and sexually unschooled. Last night, Harriet and I French kissed. According to Wikipedia, a French kiss. Is a passionate, romantic or s...

Musings about Philosophy: Distinct Qualtiatively Identical Possibilities

http://musingsaboutphilosophy.blogspot.com/2008/03/distinct-qualtiatively-identical.html

Monday, March 3, 2008. Distinct Qualtiatively Identical Possibilities. A possibility is a way that the world could be. Some philosophers hold that there cannot be distinct possibilities that are qualitatively identical. "Qualitatively identical" is a technical term. Think of it this way: two things are qualitatively identical if no matter how thoroughly we investigated, and no matter how good the tools we used in such an investigation, we couldn't tell the two objects apart. But now notice that we have t...

Words, not werds

Words, not werds. Thursday, October 6, 2011. I am b ro k. Who ever said sticks and stones break bones but words can never hurt you didn't. My skin is still there. But the bones inside are crumbling from the lashes. That scream off your tongue as your face. The little piles the bones form. On the floor when you leave. I wonder about the five second rule. And then realise that. They will never be the same anyway. Scraping the pieces together in some kind of fashion. Stifle my agony so. Some are always left.

It tells me there’s more,. But doesn’t show me where. It skitters and dashes as I reach to catch it. But still no open door. Permeates and teases,. Stretching the creases of my mind,. Prodding and begging me. It is yearning and it sometimes makes me cry. Comments : 1 Comment. Miraculous, epiphanous moment,. I’...
