Would a discussion of musical theory or the nature of sound somehow elucidate the materialist position for you? No, you're just wasting our time. Get to the moneyshot.
"Songs are immaterial"
hur dur. You couldn't really believe that every materialist who's ever lived, in all the world... didn't notice music, didn't notice sound or noise. Didn't notice that their existence makes their materialist worldview untenable....didn't -have- explanations for either sound or music. Couldn't even discuss either subject without ambiguity. That there was no functioning mechanical and physical explanation for the noises people and instruments make and how we arrange them together........ That you, Chad W. Ooters, here at AF...with the brilliant objection to materialism, of music....have finally put the nail in that coffin.
Could you?
