"Thoughts without content are empty, intuitions without concepts are blind." Immanuel Kant, Critique of Pure Reason.
it is a sad thing to see imbeciles walking around everyday, wasting their brains and lives away with mindless activities. humans have been given the gift of thought, and should make good use of it. and my way of a start to putting my cerebral mass to good use is to post these questions :
Are experiences of similar events similar among people? Or are the observations unique? When we see a ball which is red, is it really the same 'redness' that we see? Or is everyone getting a different perspective of the same thing, but are taught from young that the observations reflect the same property of the observed object, the 'redness' of the ball? Can it be that my red is your green and his blue? Would our world look different to me if I lived on another's mind? Can our imaginations do that much?
