Re: Have I just disproven The Cogito?

addyboy...i dont think name dropping a few philosophers and not really understanding logic qualifies as talking about "complex philosophy" . logic is an objective thing, all it means is one thing following from another thing, whereby no other conclusion could be drawn.

as for ayer...havent studied him since second year and i really didnt like him...but from what i can remember his theories on thought not requiring a thinker, were, as you said, questionable. its quite hard to prove, but i seem to remember him falling down on memory...cos memory is a lasting thing and therefore must last somewhere...thus the need for a thinker. or something like that. my memory must be going.
