If beauty doesn't require God, why should morality? (Bite me Dr. Craig.)

The Case Of The Colorblind Painter

Interesting. So what is it exactly that he is missing? He knows about colors, more than most people in some formal sense. Most of all he is acutely aware of missing them.

There is a major class of qualia which he was missing, and for a while he was missing another by not being able to recognize letters. Both of these greatly affected his subjective experience of the world. I guess if you want to see consciousness as a separate layer from the physical world you must think something like ChadWooters. He thinks we are like radio receivers that tune in consciousness. It would account for this Colorblind Painter case, but what an extravagant construct it seems to me.
