Hi Evgenii,
Consider the mental image that a person suffering from anorexia has
of themselves. It is distorted and false. How does this happen?
Consider the Placebo effect and its complement, the Nocebo effect.
Are they not examples

Hi John Mikes
Here's the dilemma:
Unfortunately, any system -- with the exception of the oil-rich
countries (where fairness would seem to be hard to define) -- that is
completely fair is unsustainable. Capitalism, like it or not, is the

I would say that the image in the mirror is a visual illusion
created presumably by the brain. Don't you agree? Then it is
exactly a relationship between mental and physical states

What if reality does not always obey the laws of logic? What if
reality is sometimes inconsistent?
This is a confusion of levels. Logic is rules

Certainly. The self driving cars that the people at Google and others have

I have listened to Philosophy of Science: Bolinda Beginner Guides by
Geoffrey Gorham. The author has mentioned about a new discipline,
neurolaw and I believe that could be useful for the ongoing discussion
on the free will.

Neurolaw is an emerging field
After browsing Leibnitz' Monadology (Roger, thanks for the link), I have
checked what else is available on marxists.org. It happens that marxists
have quite a nice library available. I have even found an interesting
paper of Gödel. There he claims that Husserl will help us to find out

Could be. A self-driving car that navigates a simple environment with
