A metaphysician? You don't need one! You just need to recategorize your heart muscles into active and static categories, thus teaching your heart the experiential meaning of quality

>>20079926
academic philosophers are impotent tyrants, yes
but (quoting Wittgenstein) philosophy is not a theory, but an activity
it is essentially just thinking through problems instead of being an NPC
if the "layman" is willing to do this, then they are immediately a philosopher
everyone here is probably a philosopher, at times

>> No.20080411

Hm. What of a heart attack makes the event an "emergency" or "urgent?" Why must a metaphysician be called "stat?" Is it unreasonable to wait until tomorrow? If he dies, is it not a blessing to be annihilated quickly, in comparison to other methods of dying, especially that deplorably sluggish method, "old age?"

Yes. But they often educate real tyrants.

Rapid response unit is on site:

1. Soul is not material, i.e. an element like fire or air or any combination of
them: 403b28 ff.; nor is it a spatial magnitude (vs. Plato): 407a3-33.
2. Soul is not joined to body unnaturally or painfully: 407bl-4; but body and soul
must be of a special nature so as to join connaturally; it is absurd to think
any chance soul could be joined to any body; each body must have form and shape
suitable to the soul it serves as instrument (vs. Plato ? , Pythagorea.ns):
407bl3-25.
3: On the other hand soul is not simply the harmony, ratio, or blend of the opposing constituents of the body; one reason, among many, is that it has the power
to originate motion: 407b26 ff.
4. Soul does not move body by moving itself; rather, while not itself moving, it
is moved only indirectly by reason of the body, its vehicle, like a sailor on a
ship: 405b31-407a2, 408a30-33; when soul is said to change, as in emotion, it
is the physical organ (the peart) that changes locally or qualitatively; not the
soul but the composite changes; movement is from the soul and to the soul; decline of mind in old age is due to deterioration of the interior organ on which
it depends; soul is not changed, nor changes itself: 408bl-32. (Hylomorphism)
5. Souls are not all of the same kind, e•g. not all that have sense perception (animals) can originate local motion; plants have soul but cannot perceive or move
locally; and many animals are without power of reason: 410bl6-27.
10
6. The soul is not divided into a multiplicity of really distinct parts each
serving a separate function, e.g. perception and knowing, appetition, local
motion , etc., or one part thinking, another desiring (Plato?); so the soul is
one: 4lla26-bl4.
7. Parts of the soul do not hold together parts of the body, but rather the whole
soul with all its parts is present in each part of the body , though in plants
and some insects the whole soul can be divided , since these organisms can be
divided into living segments of the same species ; but they do not survive if
in them the soul does not possess organs suitable to preserve their nature:
4llbl5-30.
