ScienceCommunicatorSo, let's be clear, you don't disagree that you have bones, flesh & skin? You are aware that you eat food, drink, & shit? That you are part of a group in which the adult females give birth to babies? And yet, you say you believe that you're not an animal? Considering this, don't you think that whatever that belief is based on, is clearly detached from the objective reality (of what you actually are. Belief aside) <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#science</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/physics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#physics</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/biology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#biology</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/chemistry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#chemistry</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/psychology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#psychology</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/religiosity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#religiosity</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/delusion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#delusion</a>

However, some things are more real than other things. It's mentally healthier to develop concepts based on subjective & objective reality. A spoon is a real object (objective reality)We are the subjective, & objective, observers of the spoon. The spoon (object) is not in our minds, our mind (electrical & chemical) develops a subjective model of the spoon (e.g., via our sense of vision)

ScienceCommunicatorI'm not aware if any person pays any particular attention to my general knowledge that l express on <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mastodon</a>However, just to be clear, l'm an academic <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/psychologist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#psychologist</a>.

ScienceCommunicatorNo average thinker in the 21st century could have known that minds qualitatively more intelligent than theirs, regarded their average folk intelligence as the only variable that was preventing something akin to world peace.

ThomasI need your advice.An elderly relative, a retired engineer in his late 80s, sent me his work on a machine, which, he believes, can save the world by producing work without any losses.All nicely written, with research on advanced materials, theory and formulas, mechanical drawings, spreadsheet calculations, etc. Of course, there are flaws in his theories.Now, I can't tell him the truth without destroying his hope in making this world a better place.What should I do? <a href="https://mas.to/tags/psychology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#psychology</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/aging" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aging</a>

ScienceCommunicatorSomewhat ironically, because it's such a common trope, folk that say "Oh my God", is a cringe factor for me. In other words, a signal that they're not informed.
