"Eliminativist" is not a good term for persons like me, because that term implies that you are eliminating an important part of reality.  But you can't eliminate something that does not exists.  If you don't believe in ghosts, are you then an eliminativist?  If you don't believe in Santa Claus, are you then an eliminativist, eliminating Santa Claus? -- Torgny Tholerus --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
