This says more about people than it does about the reality (though even fears and phantasms can indeed be rooted in reality).
- TuringTest 4y ago> Well, a fighter jet, too, is a product of the mind. I'd say there's a difference between having a physical, tangible fighter jet in front of you, with all the connections between its molecules in a configuration that allows it to fly, and having "the property of being a fighter jet" in front of you. > Tell this to triangular molecules. Do they have "a triangular" in them? https://www.smbc-comics.com/comic/real-2 https://www.smbc-comics.com/comic/real-2 > This says more about people than it does about the reality Right, and having people believe that properties exist as an entity outside of the mind says more about people than it does about the reality.
