    If a tree falls in the woods does it make a sound?

    Then you'll find a majority of 16th century continental philosophy somewhat frustrating.

    If a tree falls in the woods does it make a sound?

    I don't agree with Berkeley, but he's worth a read because of his stance on idealism. Most of us are monists (those who believe in either material or immaterial substance), but I am, as you appear to be, a materialist, as opposed to an idealist like Berkeley. Still, it's an interesting position.

    If a tree falls in the woods does it make a sound?

    George Berkeley argues, as he is an idealist, that sound is a sensation and therefore does not exist outside of the mind. For all of you arguing that sound is a vibrative or undulatory motion in the air, is it not absurd that sound in this sense is explained through the idea of motion, an idea...

    If a tree falls in the woods does it make a sound?

    Tomorrow, I'm getting into this little debate. At the moment, I'm too tired.

    How hard is it to learn how to drive a stick

    Exactly, that is the key to driving manual. Some cars have high clutches, some cars have low clutches. Automatic cars give you a license to steer, however Manual cars give you a license to drive.

    Problems with COD4/XBOX live

    It's got nothing to do with Xbox Live, go back a step. You're playing CoD 4 on an Xbox, buy a PS3. Problem solved.

    Most Terrifying Video You'll Ever See

    Your objection is misguided. He isn't arguing for the existence of climate change; he clearly states that no such argument can be given and that the balance of evidence favours 'climate change agnosticism'. He is contending that despite the epistemic irrationality of choosing column A, if you...

    I never thought that I'd see the day when Pascal's Wager was applied to climate change.

    Who here has a PS3?

    CoD 4 > Uncharted > Asassin's Creed, however the latter two are quite similar gameplay-wise. Haven't played SKATE, but I'd highly recommend CoD 4, we had a drunken multiplayer sesh last night and enjoyed ourselves immensely. I go by 'Philonous' on the Playstation network, and would also like an...

    Al gore gets pwned. 400 prominent scientists say hes wrong

    I agree with this. As it stands at the moment, there is a plethera of data/literature that can be used by either side to form/support their various theories and whatnot. Although I'm a climate change skeptic insofar as our impact/ability to do anything about climate change, surely an approach...

    If any of you take anything away from this thread, realise that water vapour IS responsible for 75% of the greenhouse effect.
