"If everything that exists is spatio-temporal, what do you do with the laws of logic?" Everything that exists in the primary sense of 'exists' is spatio-temporal. The "laws of logic" are not a "thing" and do not have existence in the same way as concrete things like this chair or Greta Thunberg have existence. (See my previous post: https://www.boychat.org/oc/messages/157807.htm) The physicalist thesis is to be understood as applying only to things that exist in the primary sense of 'exists'. What this thesis rules out are non-material subjects or entities, and supernatural agents and interlopers of all kinds. |
