Perhaps Graham Nash was a Feuerbachian.


"If I could make a wish
I think Id pass
Cant think of anything I need
No cigarettes, no sleep, no light, no sound
Nothing to eat, no books to read
...
Sometimes, all I need is the Air that I Breathe"
...

- The Hollies

Ahh, Canada. If Only I did not have that DUI conviction from 1996 I too could travel to Canada. But alas, I can not. Stupid stupid me!!!

Does he not realize that without all those other things, air, water, nutrition, he won't be able to think?

He says nothing "directly". You need to eat and drink and breathe to live, and you need to live to think(presumably), but that's still not a direct relation.

I'd argue that the nature and capacity of your thoughts are a direct result of your physical condition. OK, maybe I wouldn't ARGUE it, but it's true.

Why does so much philosophy have to be arguing semantics? To much time spent on what it MEANS to be, not enough time on what it IS to be. Or something.

I wonder if Feuerbach can conceive of thinking without electro-chemical reaction... ^..^
