Are you seriously trying to accuse him of granting intentionality to inanimate objects


[/ QUOTE ]

No, neither he nor I mentioned intentionality. He said purpose.

I don't see where he specifically talks about inanimate objects in that paragraph,

Things? Universe?

Is quibbling about language like this the best you can do in terms of disagreeing with him?


[/ QUOTE ]

You're right. Language and definitions are silly.

I believe inanimate obects can't have emotions.
I believe that no one can say an inanimate obect is happy.

Hey guys, Trantor says inanimate obects can't have emotions so how can he talk about happiness in relation to inanimate objects?

You see your error?
