Nope. Actually, there is only the material world. Transcendental idealism is a dead end. There is no proof that transcendental idealism is true, and massive proof that the material world exists. > Is it all in the mind or is the mind the product of it all? > TI says 'both, and neither' The mind is material. This is proven. > Reality as we understand it is 'something else' interpreted by 'our minds' Reality as we understand it is what we see, hear, feel, directly and through augmentation. Science is the best method we have for learning about the external world. > There is no *proof* of any of this. These are metaphysical positions. Judged > only by their *utility*. Models that are more or less useful Metaphysics is a dead end. All there is, is the material world. But note that I agree with you, that we do use models to navigate the world, and usefulness is a good criteria for the model you use. This does not in any way disprove that there is no external world, but, to the contrary is yet another strong proof for a material world. > Their truth content is indecidable. Nope. Plenty of experiments exist and I can also use my mental model of my room to prove easily where items are, that they don't change etc. by simple observation. > And anyone who claims otherwise has missed the boat Incorrect. Idealists have missed the progress of philosophy and materialism. > And at least 90% of professional philosophers don't really understand > metaphysics. Ahh yes, you are right and everyone else is wrong. Simple to just produce a proof then? ;) I side with the 90%, but I would love for you to prove the 90% wrong, that would make you worthy of many prices and honors. So far, you're not doing very well I'm afraid.
