Magnus and LilaQs
While browsing the local bookseller yesterday evening, I ran across the
book "Philosophy in the Flesh", a tome espousing the merits of something
called cognitive science, a concept I have never heard of before
yesterday. The minimal reading I have done in the book so far seems to
speak to this issue, although I don't have enough of a grasp of the
subject yet to make even a feeble attempt at an explanation.
The premise seems to be that all philosophy is local - that reason is
inherent our physical selves and is a natural evolution from a
lower(?)state and that the vast majority of reasoning, even
philosophical musing, is conducted subconsciously.

I was wondering if anyone else had encountered anything on
