Distinct

minds could be distinguished from one another by appeal to the state that they possess at a given time. However, if “mental space” includes a fundamentally temporal component, as Kim believes it would have to, it follows that multiple minds, being distinct entities, could never occupy the same temporal location. But the idea that two minds could not be in the same qualitative state simultaneously is absurd! While the concept of “mental space” may be suspect, it is unclear…

the reader an excerpt from St. Paul’s Letter to the Corinthians 12:12. Within this text, Paul speaks for the entirety of the Church, depicting them as One, equal body of Christ. However, each member of the whole body of Christ has his or her own distinct work. Through Baptism and faith, each Christian person is a member of the spiritual estate. Luther goes on to quote Peter and the book of Revelation, revealing that through the sacrament of Baptism, each individual is a consecrated priest. For…

compare and contrast their ideas while talking about my own account on personhood. Olson believes that we are all animal. As a result a person is matter that has mental features. Matter is a physical substance that has mass and occupies space, as distinct from immaterial substance like mind and spirit. Mental features are the ability to think, reason, feel, and similar, though Olson doesn’t specify which mental features are only for person. Also, an animal is a living organism, and in the case…

revolution? Abimael Guzman thought so . He couldn’t have been more correct. Accidently. A large “peasant” population, a transitional Democracy, corrupt police and a weary military made ripe the fruit of revolution . Peru is dominated by two cultures, distinct in some ways and interwoven in others. The Amerindian, indigenous peoples descended from the conquered Incan empire, and the predominantly white descendants of their Spanish conquerors, who retain vestiges of European culture and…

Adulthoods can be divided into three parts, young adulthood, middle adulthood and older adulthood based on their distinct characteristics and period of life each one covers. The difference in these three periods can be seen physically, mentally/emotionally, socially, financially and through state of health. The three adulthoods are distinct physically. During young adulthood, growth rate slows down and the body reaches a peak of physical health; during middle adulthood, the body functions begin…

that the mind and the body are two distinct and incompatible things. Descartes states that minds are non-extended and thinking, but on the contrary, bodies are extended and non-thinking. This leads Descartes to believe that the mind and body are incompatible with each other, given that the mind and the body have different properties. So, if the mind and the body are incompatible and have different properties, then the mind and the body must therefore be distinct from each other, leading…

perspectives, normative judgments about the development and improvement of democratic practices must only be sought out in reference to particular socio-cultural traditions and configurations. By “particularism” the advocates intend to convey two very distinct, yet overlapping, strands of thought: one emphasizing the importance of identity and difference, another of the shared values and traditions vis-à-vis democratic norms and values (Ellison, 1999). In the case of the former,…

JS2225 Marketing and Consumer Culture in Japan was an eye-opening module that greatly changed my perspectives on marketing strategies of firms and consumption patterns of consumers.
