Daniel Dennett was a philosophical zombie.

That evolution takes a lot longer than they guess.

Endless source of humor.

Hey, don't think I'm defending Dennett or academia in any way here.
>>
>>25151947
Stating brute algorithms can at some point inevitably produce consciousness does not actually explain why there exists any separation between "subject" and object at all, so to cope Dennett has to invent some nonsense like eliminative materialism.

would Feser's "The Last Superstition" qualify?

>New atheists
>Neo-Darwinian
Garbage terms. You know what would help the cause? Not making up new name for the disbeliever. Attack the source, not the students.
What's brought me around is the discovery of the physics they've been hiding. The utterly false Newtonian basis of the universe. Humorously enough they tried to silence Hannes Alfven's cosmology. He described the big bang theory as stealth creationism. Show this to an atheist. The eternal and infinite electric universe solves all these science headlines with these "unexplainable" and "baffling" things. Then introduce them to Tesla

Newton was overturned over 100 years ago you dumb pseud.

Nigger, Electric Universe just co opts some elements of plasma cosmology in service of some kike's schizo interpretation of the bible. You literally believe the Earth was created in the span of thousands of years.

Einstein was also overturned 70 years ago

Folks, this here is a prime example of what we call 'word salad.' To save you the time of reading this, simply consider the title of the article and then the Navajo epigram which clearly contradict each other. It doesn't get any better from there.

greentexting "newfag" in the context you did is actually the incorrect use of greentext.

This thread is so freaking stupid. Dennett may be wrong, but not for any of the reasons in the posts above.
>>
>>25152613
Then why do they have to invent dark matter and dark energy?
I was confused too. Why did they shut Alfven out after proposing the best model of the universe to date?

No. You seem completely lost.

I doubt it. Dennett is an atheist.
>>
>>25151947
No refutation but he didn't take it far enough and endorse racism and sexism because evolution rendered blacks and women biologically inferior. All the NUatheists backed out of where scientific materialism actually leads because they're libtards; which funnily enough was the same issue with the Nice Guy Evangelicals they got famous for critiquing.
>>
>>25158845
Tactical nihilism
>>
>>25158848
For atheists, the only intellectually honest endpoints are nihilism or egoism, but the NuAtheists were too libtarded to endorse either, so they've been swept away.

>Whats the best refutation of this?
Evolution is overhyped by materialists, which is silly since there's still no probable explanation as to how consciousness can spontaneously arise from inorganic matter.
>>
>>25151983
I've only heard of a p.z. in the book, blindsided. Never finished reading it.
>>
>>25155677
What is even the main idea of the book?
>>
>>25159944
Dennett doesn't really believe in "consciousness" in the way it's commonly understood, that's why his big philosophical book Conscioisness Explained is often jokingly called "Consciousness Explained Away" in phil circles
