The mind, being distinct from the imagination and senses, is what allows it to interpret the imagination & senses to begin with

Think, for example, of words written in chalk on a whiteboard. There is the words, which are inherently just scribbles composed of chalk, then there is an immaterial mind which ascribes & interprets meaning to said chalk scribbles, making them words.

(but I'm not sure my counterpart debater is aware of that lol)
I'm intensely aware of your denial of reason, making everything meaningless and how that affects your politics lol

The mind can't develop with sensorial deprivation .
 
This is One Piece Carrot. I posted worstgen Carrot. They are not the same.



the mind is immaterial.
Technically yes. But where does it come from ?



Humans are hylomorphic, composed of matter and form

The intellect is pure form, the body including the memory and senses are matter + form
Oh boy.. this is gonna be fun

So lets say that we put my head in between the plates of an hydraulic press and we push the "start" button what do you think will happen to my "mind" ?


:choppawhat:


No lol. Its just an illusion mate. A simple projection.

The mind is the image you see on the movie screen.

The intellect, the imagination, your sences are the projector, the harddisk and the electrical system.



:kayneshrug:

You have no control

Again lol, as I have just demonstrated, the form of the matter interacts with the form of the mind. This is why the mind is distinct from the body, and able to interpret the forms of it such as the memory and physicality, while also being united with it

The mind is pure form, the senses are matter + form, and the information gained by the senses feeds the mind

The mind is not the image, the mind is what interprets the image as an image. Minds are immaterial

The image is the subject-matter interpreted by the mind

To deny this would be to say that a thought can think itself, it cannot. A thought is created by an interpreting, external mind.
 
the form of the matter interacts with the form of the mind.
Because the mind is a projection of material interaction yes. We understand that already.


This is why the mind is distinct from the body
Its not. Without the body, there is no mind mate
The mind and conscience are the projections of the material interactions happening in your body and your environment.

The mind is pure form, the senses are matter + form, and the information gained by the senses feeds the mind
Not really lol.

What is being fed is your brain and its structure. Your mind evolves because the structure evolve. You only have the illusion that those informations are feeding your mind and conscience but in reality, its just the projection that changes in fonction of the structure of your brain.

Your mind and consciousness are dependant of the material interactions in the universe. They are not dependant from those processus.

That's why Materialism can't coexist with idealism. And that's why Macron, Trump or Biden can't understand why poor people can't just become rich because they want to.


The mind is not the image, the mind is what interprets the image as an image.
That's all part of the projection my dear.

The interaction in your brain makes you believe that your mind and therefore the immaterial is the one processing imagination but in reality its an illusion.

Your brain is processing all those information and creates the projection of a mind processing thoughts, emotion or imagination.

Its all part of a material processus of interaction between the physical reality of the universe.

You, me, your mind. There is no control over anything. We are simply drops of waters derivating through the river of the reality.
