No, it wasn't. I know as fact that it didn't happen to me. I'm sorry you can't admit that some people don't experience dependancy like you do. Cigarettes on the other hand I've been having a harder time with because they are addictive. I understand what you're saying as I've seen people that have the cravings when they are out. But not everyone does.Kracus wrote:I'm not saying there are adverse affects I'm just saying the craving to go smoke a joint IS there. It might be easy to tolerate if you need to but there is a craving which would indicate somekind of addictiveness. You guys can fucking say it doesn't exist all you want but I've experienced it and know better. So this isn't a being right or wrong this is fact I know because I've experienced it.
i prefer not to commit to a given theory of mind, which is why I talk about mental events being correlated in some way with physical events.Massive Quasars wrote:He's not being entirely clear.

But even this is presupposing a distinction between mental and physical, so the way I phrased the original statement isn't really compatible with identity theories of mind, or hardcore physicalism.
I like conceiving of the mind/brain in an epiphenomenal manner (MQ you were correct in picking that out) just for the sake of theoretical utility (there is a certain accuracy about epiphenomenalism in that at least we are preserving the toplogy of physical activity) but I also think the identity theorists may be onto something.
Honestly, the mind body problem is one that I've never been able to come to terms with.
I too find philosophy of the mind difficult, I haven't really staked out a position from which to defend (even as I find some arguments more convincing than others in reading). Though I'm relatively confident humans don't have classical free will.[xeno]Julios wrote: i prefer not to commit to a given theory of mind, which is why I talk about mental events being correlated in some way with physical events.

thinking about it though, that's just as likely to be behavioural as anything else.

There is a great artcle by Peter van Inwagen which links our conceptual capacities to the apparent insolubility of mind/body problem. But fuck me I can't remember the title....I'll drop it in here if I can find the relevant book.[xeno]Julios wrote:

I suggested growing our own to mine and she freaked out screaming shit like "we could lose the house!".
