Have you at least read it before claiming it a "great philosophy (sic) book"?

I do not speak German. I presume you said "Yes, naturally."
Has the book convinced you of the fact that Bach is the greatest composer in human history?

Saying that everything is a matter of perception is basically a philosophical cop-out.

TheHutchie (04/10/2014) [-] I agree to an extent, but I think of it more akin to "a lot of people struggle to separate actual fact from mere perception of fact."

That is perfectly fine. I just hate people who keep saying "It's all subjective", especially when discussing art or philosophy.

TheHutchie (04/10/2014) [-] I think that most art is subjective.
Not so sure about philosophy though.
I wouldn't use "it's subjective" to defend my opinion though. Anybody who has to be told that an opinion varies by person is probably not worth arguing with.

You're right; not worth arguing with.
Art is subjective? You should probably say "taste is subjective", then. And if you are ready to say that, I am ready to tell you that David Hume and Immanuel Kant are in stark disagreement with you.

TheHutchie (04/10/2014) [-] See, we both know that I already meant "taste is subjective". Everyone experiences a piece of art - a painting, a piece of music, et cetera - differently. The amount of diversity a group of peoples' comments include when talking about a painting can sometimes be mindblowing. I think that anyone who appreciates an art form knows and understands this.
I don't know what David Hume and Immanuel Kant say specifically, but any non-subjective value that applies to art, and it is a big value, is the meaning it has to it's creator. If anything that anyone has to say can be seen as non-subjective, it's the words of it's founder.
If that's not to do with what you mean, then please expand on it. I'm interested in what you have to say.

earlploddington (04/10/2014) [-] Or every single conversation, maybe?
Or just scream and throw jaffa cakes at people whenever they try to discuss something with you
works for me

Now I realise that you can't throw them at me, but I'll happily accept them if you post them to my home address.
