We observe temperature by the position of a body of liquid in a vial. We observe voltage by the position of a needle on a machine face. We observe..everything, by their correlating conscious experiences...... You tell me.
-but this is the important part, at least with respect to stolen concepts...no matter what you tell me, you can't then assert the truth of what you would attempt to disprove. If you think that we can't observe temperature or voltage...then you can't simultaneously think that we observe the correlates of temperature and voltage. If you think that we can observe the correlates of temperature and voltage, then you can't simultaneously think that we can't observe temperature and voltage.
Note that I'm not telling you that it's impossible for you to be a complete loon or cretin with directly contradictory beliefs and a tendency to express them in incoherent sentences...pretty sure you are...only that this rats nest does not qualify as a valid..which is to say coherent, proposition.
