Oh, of course, nothing about LSD can give me access to things that my brain just doesn't have access to. It can help with the things that already are in my brain though.
- bowsamic 1y agoYour brain does have access to all rational truth
- LoganDark 1y agoMy brain has the ability to claim anything it wants as truth. I prefer for my truth to either be consistent with an objective or empirical truth, or be measurably opposed to truths I disagree with (and to a known degree). I don't always achieve this and I'm not always the best at being open-minded but it is the goal, I would think.
- bowsamic 1y agoEmpirical truth is a lesser form of truth, look for necessary truth, purely rational
- adastra22 1y agoWha? Empirical truth is a lesser form of truth? What are you getting at there?
- bowsamic 1y agoEmpirical observation is contingent, so cannot be the basis of certain knowledge.
- adastra22 1y agoEverything is contingent on empirical observation. Our rational brains are the product of pattern matching algorithms trained on empirical reality. There is no basis for rational thought that is not downstream of empiricism.
