[QUOTE="variant, post: 71598839, member: 114463"] Your choice to hide behind semantics doesn't help your argument. You have to trust the process by which your mind exists which you can not have any beliefs about without trusting the trustworthiness of the experiences of that mind. This is by no means self evident, you have simply decided to gloss over the "why" of how you are allowed to trust your ideas and declare it self evident. Further, you wish to deny such a luxury to others by requiring them to justify the details of how their mind works and giving yourself a get out of explanations free card by not bothering. This circular mistake is compounded by the idea that you would try to deny peoples proper experiences in reality, with their own minds and their own brains as a fully acceptable means of exploring reality. This makes your argument hollow and ineffective. But that is to be expected from anyone who can't see their own positions for what they are. You have decided to levy extreme doubt upon the materialist position BECAUSE we understand it better and exempt from doubt your most cherished beliefs because they are shrouded in mystery. The extreme irony of this position that you think you are more epistemological validated for doing so is a pretty good, if very long winded joke that only the philosophically inclined are likely to chortle at.
