And, yet, your refutation is:

I think one of these is deliberately vague and hand-wavish just to sound sophisticated. The one that's arguing for some mystical mind-body duality and "deeper thought".
- mckirk 6y agoIt might be worth pointing out that I'm not the author of that refutation. But I agree that that refutation was itself pretty vague. I was still more irked by the guy being going full Zen-master in the level of clarity of his posts, calling people fatally confused for even thinking about the question and then wondering about being downvoted.
