Hi Roger and Group:
ROGER:
1)DQ is everyday Direct Experience. By Direct Experience we
mean presubject and preobject and preconceptual
PLATT
So far, so good.
ROGER
and by definition it is not "human experience" (it is presubject)
PLATT
Not human experience? How can that be? What about the baby, the
brujo, the heart attack victim, the song hearer, the hot stove sitter?
Did they not all directly experience DQ? Do you mean "it is not an
EXCLUSIVELY human experience?"
ROGER:
Sq is objectified and subjectified patterns. These are conceptual
models that are our best representation of preconceptual experience.
PLATT:
So now you posit humans having “preconceptual experiences" and
making “representations” of them. Yet, you state that preconceptual
DQ is not a "human experience.” Contradiction?
What am I missing? Add "not an exclusively human experience" and
leave out “by definition” and I'm OK with your position. But your
categorical "not human” throws me. Even pure mysticism, about
which very little can be said, permits one to say it's a human
experience.
But of course I could be wrong.
