Materialists Pursue Mental-Things: 01-30-2025

1. Adults usually serve mental-things (mental-objects, semantic-objects, thought-things).
2. The desires and plans of adults are for the acquisition or destruction of mental-things.
3. There are no physical materialists, but many mental materialists pursue and cling to mental-things represented or “materialized” by physical things.
4. Adults pursue mental-things and are concerned about physical reality only in so far as it indicates or excuses their mental-things without realizing that makes them believers in the philosophies of Idealism and Postmodernism.
5. With few exceptions, materialists pursue mental-objects because that is how they believe they acquire physical things. For example, acquiring a famous painting is more important as a mental-object (conquest, pride in a superior collection, proof of superiority, self-esteem object) than a physical object.
