The nature of evidence
#53
RE: The nature of evidence
Wyretui:  If you're going to copy and paste reams of someone else's work, you should credit him.  Otherwise, you're committing plagiarism, of which the Administration of this board take a VERY dim view.

From one of your posts here:

Quote:A man is also a physical object in as much as he is also a physical body. The ancient Greeks disagreed, however, about whether there was anything more to man than his body. The Atomists and the Epicureans insisted that the soul was made out of matter, just like the body. The Platonists, on the other hand, believed that the soul was an immaterial and immortal form imprisoned in the body. The difference of opinion has persisted down to our own day, with the majority now firmly in the materialist camp. Many forms of psychology and all of the so-called social sciences presume that human life can be studied empirically and quantified.

The author of the second passage is Clark Carlton, who, according to his online biography, is in his early 50s.  You, according to your introductory post, are an 18 year old university student in Romania.

I find it monumentally ironic that a self-styled Orthodox Christian uses the thievery of another man's words to make his case.
